Bunt wmyhsw lately published a yolumo of poetry, the chief portion being Iho tory of "David and Anna Matxon," which Is a very doleful tale, written In what the author mistakenly calls horolo Torse. This book Is wall-printed and elegantly bound; the portrait of Mrs. Dunnlway, asa fronllspleco, Is good, perhaps a trifle flattered. We are not disposed to se verely rritlclto the verses because vre have no time to carefully read them, though many may find them Interesting. They show that Mrs. D. possesses literary ability of a diver- allied order, but the glimpse we have of them satisfies us that the author succeeds beet in prose. What can be best told In prose shonld be sotold; the telling of an or- dlnary story in commouplaoe verse is not by any means poetry. Leigh Hunt says: "Poetry la the utterance of a passion for truth, beauty and power em bodying and illustrating its conceptions by imagination and fancy." " Its means are whatever the universe contains; and its ends, pleasure and exaltation." Milton describes poetry aa "simple, senauous and passionate." " Pcetry," said Shelley, " lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world and makes familiar objects be aa if they were notfamll lar." Appleton'a Cyclopedia defines poetry as "imaginative composition in metrical or highly fanciful language." The highest or der of poetty the world has ever known can be found In the Sacred Scriptures; Homer has never been equalled by auoceedlng gen erations, and from bis day down through the ages, to the advent of Joaquin Miller, the great poets of the world oau be easily csunted and cannot be easily replaced. It would be discouragement to those of us who occasionally attempt verse, to be required to equal Bryant or Longfellow, but the field Is open for competition, and alto open for criti cism. Oregon for a new State so remotely situated, can take some pride in the renown of Joaquin Miller, who possesses undoubted thongh cot always well-directed genius. We have also occasional flashes of poetry from the pen of S.L. Simpson, whose genius however, sometimes falls him in the midst of effort. If he was capable of earnest study and continuous effort we could expect much from him. We would as freely accord praise to Mrs. Dunl way as to Miller and Simpson , if her writings realized in any degree the standard we have quoted. Wherever Oregon developee talents we propose to recognize it, but with the kindest of feeling and motives we have never been able to recognize that this lady possesses any true poelical ability. The New York Graphic hai a long review cf " David and Anna Matson," and the only criticism It makes is that it is a "sad story," and concratuUtes Mrs. Dunnlway on having " got rfcl of it," with which we respectfully coincide. Sor the WUUmttte Fsraer. Old-Time Orchards and Orcoardiits. (Continual.) PLUMS AND PRUNES. Wo next come to Plums. Twelve varieties were first cultivated, but of these wo have discarded more than half, and have added Instead fourteen or fifteen new names. These old names are out; Green Gage and Jefferson, two worthless little plums; Washington, now Yellow Gage; lied Damask and Sweet'Damson are worthless; Smith's Orleans and Naup, good, hut better are in their places; Meeker's Gage is now the Heine Claude do Bavay. Many of these old varieties come yet to market. Tho best we have now are: Ilradshaw, Peach Plum, Washington, G. Egg, Coe's Golden Drep, Heine Claude de Bavay. For Prunes, German, Italian, and Petite Prune d'Agen. Oregon is particularly adapted for plums and prunes; tho trees are hardy, regular, and great bearers, and, with the pres ent modes of drying, are a very profit able crop, and, so far, we have no curcu Ho to blast our hopes, and hope wo will never have. Plums are dried without pits, and of these stands tho Peach Plum nt the head. Tho plum of tills name is no doubt the Peach Plum of tho books and Eastern catalogues, and if its description does not in all respects tally with those of tho Eastern fruit, it is because our climate and our .soil are much more favorable) for its develop ment than thoc of tho Eastern Statu?. A few years ago, Barry, Downing, IIo vey, and other authorities on fruit, du ring an inspecting tour of California visited many noted orchards and nur series about Ban FntnclVco, and were astonished at the size of most of tho fruils, and many varieties appeared now to them, though the treex came from their oxen tumeric. Our Itoyal Ann cherry they identified as tho Na poleon Ulgarreau. Itoyal Ann is not In Eastern catalogues. If our climatic influence can deceive- such men, wo need not wander at the differences be tween ours and theirs, and to thii cause I would attribute tho difference be tween tho Uerman prune trees that Mr. Scttloraier receivad from the East ern States and tliowj raised here. Wo have undoubtedly tho truo German Prune, though the tree differs from its Eastern brother in stronger growtli and less thorn. Tho prunes uro dried with tho stones; to tnko thc&o out spoils tho pruno nnil makes n plum out of it. Tho prune dries bettor with tho pit than tho plum cut in hnlvc. I have laid them up on a shelf behind tho stove, nml they dried well. In sotting out n plum orchnrd for drying ulono I would recommend to set three varlotles: Peach, for early, the Wash ington or Columbia next, nml tho Prune for late. Thoro is no doubt that of any named, and dries heavy, but tho Prune stands at tho head of nil The Petite Prune d'Agen Is a now prune, much cultivated in California We have not sufficiently tried them here to givo them recommendation, but it is well to set out some in overv orchard. Tho German and Italian Prunes aro not tho heaviest bearers, though much larger, nnd they itinko n more showy nrtlclo than tho Petite Prune. There is also a large Pruno d'Agen, similar in color (beautiful light red) to the other, but how good for dry ing I know not. Of tho plums above named, I can recommend very highly the Heine Claude de Bavay for cann ing, requiring much less sugar, and making an excellent dish. The tree a full crop only every other year, but, by watching nt the first bearing nnd taking off all tho blooms of one half the tree, we can change tho bearing years, and so hive them every year. Now the most Inijwrtnnt question comes up: How will a plum and pruno orchard way? Of course, only for dry ing can large planting of these be made profitable, if at all, and I would nover plant all prune or all plum, but mix them up, to hit nnd miss. If we pre pare our fruits for the markets of the world, we compete with the mar kets of tho world and tho rest of man kind. Having to do that, can wo still I make It profitable? l es, under proper management. 1 mean by this that ev ery planter should manage the orchnrd himself. As a branch of farming, it can be made profitable; as a gentle man's pestime, never. There is no fortune in it to any one, however much figuring with pencil may promise. IlENKY MlLLEll. OREGON THROUGH KANSAS GLASSES. We tike Ilia following about Oregon from tho Walheiu Reporter, f Wathena, Kansas, of Da ccnber9Ui. It ulli be read with Interest by oarrcadcrs : J. A. Stawart suit bU briJe armed from Ore gon lilt Monday, and nill probably make tliur Lome in Wathena. As wc have been asked a great many times how Albert likes Oregon, wo might say thtt he Hies Kansas better. Thero aro many things alxnit Oregon- that he likes md much that no dislikes. That about lier lie like belt he bronght homo with him. That which he dislikes is the muj. Between the mud and the web-foot prls a new comer has no ihorr whatnrer, to he bitched on to a iluek and pad dled back to Kansas. In the summer season Ore gon U a delightful country, specially for excur sions np into tho mountains, when largo number of people go to bunt, fisli, gather ber ries, and improve- tbelr health. But the winter season ia intolerable to thosa who are not accli mated. It beguiH to rain early in tho fall and eoaUoaes with hardly an lnteraiission all win ter. The bigli mountains act aa a condenser of tbameutare ic the warm Pacific winds and precipitate tt back upon the valleys in dsllua-e until the lowlands present the appearance of a sea of mnJ and water. Tho people there who have become accustomed to it, don't mind it. They have suits made to snit, and go on about their work the same as if it was dry and pleas ant. There is little interruption of firm work, and pooplo often plow when the water runs in too turrow. Wbest is tho great crop. Although there aro many varieties of wheat sown, thero U bat one grade and one price. This year the prisa is TO cents per busbel, and indeed many farmers make a fortune in a single aeaaon oat of whcit at even so low a price. The turners thero who own gocd land aro tho wealthiest class. They aro generally indepen dent and ablo to hold on to their produce until the pneo justifies them in selling. Last 5 car, it was nothing uaumsl to find a farmer with 15, 000 or 2(1.009 bush-Is of wheat on band, haviDg bald his previoas year's crop over. Wheat has been sown in every month m the year and a good crop gathered from it. Tho belt (arming lands are worUi from SCO to SICK) per acre, but lands of poorer qualities can bo bought all the way down to $3 or 110, according to futility and location. The old settlers got all tho belt lands, The law allawed the head of family to enter a section when tlio country w3 opnwl. It costs from SIS to 20 an acre to clear tho U-nt lands of the Hr timber which covers them. This work. is mostly done by Chinamen. A great deal of farming I dono on the shares, and an industrious man o in get all the land ho wants to farm, on term? that are very profitable. Hut, like it is in Kansas, it is too easy to make money at farming in Oregon, and alter two or three j ears, people become lazy and don't care whether they work or not. This gives an indus trious, euergeuo man a good chaueo to pitch in and make money, A thousand dollars will en ablo "in n l"in frtriln'-. HnniH r,f tlm best lacdaareyetheldby the inoians, aiidrrill no doubt bo in tho market in a f ;w years, but there are about a don men to every claim, witching to gobblo it. I'rult and vegetables are too plentiful to bo profitable. Corn will not maturo on account of the cool nights. Utock raising is a good basiness. All kinds of stuck are eafcllv raised; though the market is somewhat limited, yet cows are selling at $18 to 20. All business xospt azricultural iutoruts, is dull. Trn people buy tery little merchandise. Their isolited condition in early days made it nectssary for them to raise and manufacturo maily everything thry used, and thisprolitablo spirit of economy atlll prevails. They are tho taM gemnous jnoplu in tl.o iroild, and tho great abuudi'jco in which grains, liKetalilis and Iruits grow, enables them to live in easo raid luxury. Owing to the mud and dampness a carpet en tho i'oor is veldom Ken, but th"y lute tho best bread mails anywhere. It is not as healthful a titite as Kansis, except up in tho mountains. The wet wrathor ciums consump tion, of which dixeasa thtro is a good deal mora Uian with us. Tho country is thinly sottltd, and tLo towns havo tUo biggest reputations ec cording to tbdi dizoof any m the United Status. Ken Miter mines, said to bo the richest in tho world, litio recently bun discovered in tho vicinity or Uio hot springs, and many people aro now flocking to tho mines. I'liially, if ) oil go to Oregon, don't buy your ticket direct from Ban Francisco to 1'ortlaud, but go by tho way of Victoria, U. 0., and oouo down through Washington Territory. It is two days further travel, but it cods no itoro, nnd the scenery on tho route well repays ono for tho extra (wno required to travel it. Tho ixcom laudations aru also better. Itov. Klcbard Cotl;n, Enplitii author, died s few da;s a;;o, on Hop-Picking. En. Faumki Noticing nn article In tho last nuiubc of your paper on hop-, picking, from One Kollan, in nnswor to ono published Nov. -lth, It calls for some expianntl n in ordor to substan tlnto tho argun ent horotoforo present- ed. In tho 11 rs place, I would remark that if nporsonlls not combining tho business of raising grain and hops, it would bo folly ti ndvoealo the "header- bed system." This 1 freely confess As tho only true policv to pursuo. In l or Wlmc ls -rnicu ' mixed liusbuiulry,' is ono reason why I advocated this system. As most hop-niMng in Or egon is not made a specialty, It would work well; this I find by actual expe rience, which is much moro creditable than theorizing. If farmers would sow more or less grain In the fall (as they ought), It would be quite a help on tho outcome of their spring work; and harvesting would naturally eouio off sooner than it now does, where grain is all sown in tho spring. This being tho case, hop raising would not interfere in tho least with raising grain. Where heading is practiced there wnuld bo no extra ex penso for header-beds, teams, Ac, as my friend K. sneaks of, which seems to bo tho most important objection; tho balance aro of n trivial character, agree ably to my understanding; for Instance, he says: "It would take n person to eaeh header-bed to drive the team." This is not strictly truo, as the foremost picKer in eacn ueu can drive tno team without any material less of time. Ho further says: Wo would havo the wholo day's work on hands at night, and would require n mammoth dry- house," Ac; this Is also incorrect, as hop-pickers aro inclined to want their dinners as well os other laborers; at ine stimo time tne loans can be taken to the dry-houso as well as at night; in fuel, most of hop-raisers dry their hops at night, ns one flooring is ablo to hold what is picked through the day. Again ho says: " You cannot have ten plckcrn iu ono hcadei-bcd, and pick clean"; this is absurd on the face of it. Furthermore, " You will have to pay the hands by tho day ": This can b arranged, If there is a will. If one don't wish to pay hands by tho day, tho heitdcr-leds can lio divided into as many parts as thoro are pickers; or divide the amount picked by the number of pickers iu each header-bed. I'll admit the header-bed system is somewhat novel in its character; still 1 liopo this explanation will be satisfac tory to my friend E. 1 will conclude by saying that practi cal iiivestiiratiaus on f.trmiii": (as well as in other callings) arc interesting and prontnbio to farmers, ami or such I ap prove when dono with good motive.
