When we get worked down licro in tlio big oity we run off at timos, for a day of change mid even if busmeai calls u away it gives recreation, and thla timo of tho year ofllco work crowiU. and a chango ia very desirable. Wo naturally make a trip onco in a whilo lo Salem, which has been our homo for more than a quarter of a century, whero wo havo inoro frionds and intiuiato aiiociationa than anywhere) else. Homo pcoplo are industri- oualy circulating tho idea that '.ho Capital city is in tho last stages, but wo venture the assertion that no intorior town has nioro life animation, business and trado than Salem or will do better in tho future. Business seemed to be better than ono year ago and tho Salom Flouring Mills, alone, havo stored one hundred thousand bushels lunro wheat than last year, and that year was an iucrcaao over any other. Wo could seo no lack of animation, though no doubt tho building tip of other towns and tho construction of tho west side road will prevent that town from liaving as much growth and trado as it would had the situation remained unchanged, hut theso changes must occur. Salom possessos a great trade in Marion county alone, a county that is rapidly extend ing its wheat fields by tho clearing of now land and every year produces more and more Tho increased prcduction of this year is in itpito of great ravages from rust, and had tho crop of 1879 been well savod tho proipcr Ity of Marion coutty would havo been in creased by tho circulation of half a million dollars tnoro coin. The total receipts of wheat from the crop of 1870, at Salem ware houses will probably reach half a million bushels. Tho dif'iter that most affected Salem was . tho burning of the extensive woolen mill which gavo food and substance" to. several ItunilraU'i'enpons.'Wheirtbeie' mills banted the operatives and their families and those who incidentally.doponded on the trade con neeted with tho mills, left tho city, and the result has been vacant bouses, lower rates and poor sale for property. There is a scheme on foot that promises suoccss. A lumber of citizens, including T. W. Daven enport, K, P. Karhart, Geo. A. Edes, Lewis Johnson, W. II. H. Waters, and C. A. (bed, have incorporated the Willamette Woolen Works, and have encouragment to . believe that all .the money needed can be had here in Portland it a certain amount can bo raised there. They may build on the old site, or still better utilize the so-called agricultural works that are practically un used. Whenever this enterprise proves suc cessful then (he city of Salem will hold iU own again and vhilo it cannot expect as was the case as wo remember quarter of a -oentury ago to command the trado of four uountles, it will live and thrive and be beau tiful and dolightful on tho trade that natur ally belongs to it. Marion county, too, is a county that will take pride in supporting a beautiful city, and das a prospect before it of growing rioher and greater with the lapse of years. The peoplo there appreciate their ad7antagcs and will not neglect tho means to improve them, The new Pavilion at the .State Pair grounds attest their wealth and liberality. Wo went .to Marion county in tho prido of youth and grow gray thero n tho labors and viciut tudu of q'urtor of a cintury left thair im press, and hope to find a resting place thero when life's cares are over, an I shall never cease to tike Interest in tin welf ro of thj oity and country we knaw so well and where we lived so long, ERA OF IMPROVEMENT. Tho news that a railroad will bo built next year from Cclilo to Wcllula is about the most gratifying intelligence that wo could give our readers. Such a road, connected by feeders with Walla Walla and tho different wheat growing districts of the uper country will bring all that region within easy reach and short time of Portland and must redound to the great advantago ot all the Pacifio North wist. Tho very news of this undertaking beiug determined upon must go to tho world potent with results iu favor of Kastem Ore gon and Washington. Population will iur in to all the eutern agricultural districts, as an increased rate, as soon as the fact of eou .itruction is placed l-eyond a doubt, and we seo no reason to entertain any doubt after the assurances that are received. The era of rail road buildinj once actually commenced roust go on for jvars to come, and tho money ex pended for labor and materials will rnako times lively there and hero as well, and in troduce a prosperity that will be felt far and near. Wo hate all waited many years for the good time coming and at last it seems to Im in the near future close at hand. Ths operation of the Oregon Railway and Transportation Company will inspire the Northern Pacifio with now zeal. That road may go to tho Sound direct, but it cannot rcfuso connection with tho Oregon branches that will reach it. Tho building of tho northern road will indiico the Union Pacifio to reach out towards tho Columbia river, and tho re sult will bo competition for ovcrlaud trans portation and tho opening tip of an Asiatic commerce direct with tho Columbia river and Puget Sound, and fu a conscquenco tho Pa cific Northwest will devclopo at a rato never boforo drcamod of. Tho nows scorns to bo too good to bo trne. GOOD TIMES AND HIGH FRIGES. Wo hesr a groat ileal said nliout rovital of industrios and advauco in prices. Tho manu facturing industries of tho country arc getting on n Ijetter basis, which is a Mossed thing, for lliey havo dragged along for years and opcrativos havo worked for too low wages or not worked andgouo hungry, Tlio, bad times havo bred tramps and mailo misery and dis honesty, and mo far as the revival of industry is concerned, and tho payment of good healthy wages, the world is tho better for it and tho fanner will got equally better prices as ho has inero paying customers and more mnnry is in circulation. With revival of trado men who havo money will unlock their coffers to start public enterprises and that will make mora work and pay for tho idlo and make tho world healthier and lion ester. We can stand nil that, and bid it (lod pood, taking our chances that tho farmer will livo and thrive when every ono olsodocs, but that wont oxplain why sugar goos up fro-n lOo a pouml to 15, why coffeo shoot aloft liko a rocket, why speculators aro choming and striving to got tho better ot overy body else. Tho fact is that just at this timo tho most ot us aro beiug victimized by this sharp, pry of -"renewed prosperity and good times." It ia mora than poasiblo that in the excitement of tho hour tho farmor will come out at tho little end ot all the trade that are made. When tho speculator makes a corner in sugar it is the working man who pays the heavy margin. There I no particu lar reason why tho farmer should pay S3 U 50 per cont. more for all hi supplies, oxcept that speculators have put up a big Job at tho world's oxpeuse. , Death of a Swindler. Editor Willamette Farmer! Tho pajicrs announce the death ot Dr. Allison, of Ilrooklyu, alia "Hnv, Joseph T. Inman" who advertised so extensively in tho papers, capi-cially the religious journals, his euro foe consumption. The reader will no doubt remember him, especially if ho has been bilked by Lint; he advertisod his ad dress as "Station I) lltble House, N. Y." In a suit njainst him tho lliblo House obtained a perpetual Injunction restricting him from using the term liiblo House, but he went on with his nefaiious business how over. He never had n room iu the liiblo House and was in no way connected with it. The postal service tried for n timo to check his business by holding his plks of money and letters at Station I),, but were finely de feated and gavo it up. In tho suit Allison acknowledged that hu was tho "Iter. Joseph T. Inmau ami that he had realised over $J.M,000 out of tho advertising and sales. So carefully did he manago the affair that h s associate iu tho business did not know that any other thtti tho "Itev," till attrudiug tho funeral of I);. Allison across thu fer.y he lecognized his Kav. partner in tho coilfci. He aukhowledjvd tint ho never was a mis sionary; never was in South Amorica and nover knew such a ix-mm as Jos. T. Ininan; that tho whole thing wai pure invention of hi own, His widow for a time tried to stop th- business, but finally, It being so lucrative she concluded to go on with it. So all who wish to 1k swindled can teud their money to " Itev, Joseph T. Inman," Suckers on Raspberries. Wo luo discarded the plan of allowing red rasplierries and blacklierrics to sucker and grow all over and between the runs, and now keep the cultivator muuiug through them cery two weeks, cutting oil all sucker that come up between the rows, and giving plants in rows double the chance. This is what we couiider good advice, and it means to use the thumb and finger to pinch in time. In re gard to blacklicrries aud raspberries, it is a great mistake to allow- them to grow up tall and spindling, and then in tho Fall or next Spring have to cut off one-half to two-thirds of the wood and cane to mako a stalk to bear fruit. Watch tho new- growth, and w hen it gets two or three feet high owing to stocki net of plant, if they be small two feet, and large three feet nip off the tip of tho new growth with the fingers, or with a knife or shears. Fruit Recorder. PORTLAND, OREGON, NOV. 21, 1 1 MR. FAROEY'S FRUIT DBY2R. I Weather and Croi Scio, Nov. 7, 1870. ICditnr Willamette Farmer: I thought a few words to your numerous readers would not bo amiss. I havo been drying fruit for a number of years. Tho first dryer I made was n very rudo ono; I run it for a whilo and then romoddlcd it again. Finally I had ono burned up; then I built anothor a little batter, and still 1 invented ono that I nm running now, nnil which is as good as any of tho patented dryer. I havo tho capacity of drying throo thousand pounds a week w ith ilvo hands. My fruit is equal to tho boat, I havo a girl by tho namo of Sarah A. Fargvy who puod forty-Ova bushels of ap ples iu Ilvo hours and I curod thorn iu tho samo timo and did nomo othor work. I dried tun thousand pounds of apples last year, hut apples being scarce I will not roach that this Fall. A great many prefer my fruit to tho Plummer fruit. Jamks Faikiuv. Wo havo heard, for aoiiio years, of Mr. Fargoy's succers at fruit drying, and when wo visited tho Santiam soma years alr.oo saw a fino orchard that showed good care, which wo learned aftorwards was u hi place, and had wo known it at the time should have been glvl to stop and visit him, Mr, V. is ono of our oldost subscriWs aud wo are glad to chroniclo his tucccss. Wo havo no doubt that his dryer equals any iu operation and greatly doubt itauy of them havo excelled tho quali ty of his fruit or the rapidity of bis work. Tho performance he tccounts is vory remark ablo, and to talk plainly alxnit tho matter, wo believe fruit drying can be carried on without such outlay for purchase ot machine a has beeii deemed necessary. Fruit grow ing, and drying tho sama for foreign markets, will bo a great business iu the future, and should beoomo one of the most reliable moans of income for Oregon f armors, especially a it offers a way to carry, oo mixed husbandry to great advantage, by utilizing home labor and causing little deterioration of soil, while It results in a condensed prod not tiut can bo easily exported without requiring a fleet of Vessels to tako it away. The letter of Mr. Fargey shows what indi vidual enterprise can do in the direction of fruit drying and it should oncourago others to go into fruit culture and undertake the drying and packing of tho article for export. A great deal depends on the condition iu which any product is presented to tho cus tomer, Tho farmer wont purchase goods ot the merchant unless they aro iu good shape, and his products, including butter, cheese, cured meats, fresh and dried fruits, will not fln quick sale ajid bring good prices nuless they are handsomely prepared for market. The loss to the producer, occasioned by care less and unmerchantable preparation of all his products, amouuts tu an imnieruefiuni. This it a subject that is worthy of mora extended comment. Where Does He Live! Some timo ago a Washington county paper had tho following: In a certain county in Oregon is a man nearly CO years of age, who has lived nomo thirty years ujwn a half seo tiou nccurcd under tho Donation law of 1852. Siuce he located he has cleared uoine twenty acres of small slushing and planted a few applo and plum tries, erected n polo barn, ahako house, beuht a cow, a pig and a fow chickens, and ha.i lieeu perfectly contented fur a quarter of n century, wheu his section liegaii to 111! up with (i i.cw class of people who made the oil man angry by their tnery Ho has, as absurd us it may seem, never owned ft ho'se, aud nover had any use for ono until two j ears ago, when ho put In five acres ot wheat with tho aid of n neighbor's team. About this time ho purchased a wife, so re. ported, by giving tho father 40 acres of laud. It is au odd match a case of 15 and CO. This mail has opposed tho building of bridges, tl.o opening of roads, and thu pro gress of internal improvement, lie fiuds fault with the Assessor, puts tho County Court to unuoeessary trouble, and tho only real aim hu seems to have iu life is to mako his neighbors feel his hatred and head every remonstrance as againht petitions for roads and other itiipioveiueuts beneficial to the neighborhood of which he is a citizen. Thero are a great many others of liko ilk in Oregon. Men who hau arowu rich by tho increase of the value of their laud ; one can uot bay a foot of it ; they firmly believe they made this country what it is, when in fact, if it hadn't been for tho euergy of their pioneer neighbors and tho determined and industrious men who followed iu the train of immigra tion, these very men would bo feeding en her. rlca aud roots, while their big farms, the quarter of which they will not cultivate nor sell, would cot bo worth a picayune Instead of rich men they would bo the paupers they were before others' energy enhanced the value of their farm. 1879. Weather and Crops. Never before have tho farmers of this valley had a hotter opportunity for putting in fall grain, and never boforo havo thoy improved tlioir opportunities so well. Prominent farm ers from all parts of this county tell us that already over half of our grain fields aro seed ed, and the earliest sown is up and looking well. It has now commenced raining and will probably continuo, but there will be mora grain sown yet, on high ground. Hero toforo there was probably not over ono tenth of tho acrcago sown to fall grain, but tho ilatnago from rust was so great this year that our farmers have worked untiringly to got in fall grain. A great deal of stubhlo land has been turned under and sown, and some think it will not yield very well, but others say it will turn out a good average crop and will not 1)0 damaged by rust, and that is all they ask for. Looking at it from ovcry point wo aro lod to bcliovo that Linn county's, wheat crop next season will be large and of tho Itcst quality, aud if good prices rule wo will onco mora bo as prosperous as any locality on tho globe. Albany Democrat. What Constitutes a Good Roadster. Tho truo test for tho roadster is his valuo to use, until ln wears out, at light driving on the road. It is uot oxpected that he should draw anything heavier than an ordinary buggy containing two men, or if two horses aro harnessed together, about doublo that weight. Great speed is not the desideratum.

A cor dial iuvitatlon is extended to tho people of other parts of tho county to be present, and assist iu making this a success. Should a proper degree of interest bo taken iu this fair, it will possibly prove the initiatory of a county fair next year. The following are the officers of the Sius law Agricultural Society: J. A.

Heut cannot produce eggs unless their food soubins tho elements of which tho egg is composed, Tho kind of feed that is offered t- hens must bo determined by the object to bo attained in feeding them. Hens intended fur tho market should bo fed that kind of grain which is known to contain a large er leutago of thu fatty or contains a larger sharo of albuminoids or oily substances. Hut hens kept as layers should bo fed on tint kind ot grain which contuins egg-producing elements. Ill addition to the essential quality of al bumen required iu the nrgutiiain of the fowls, the laying lion r quires an extra amount for otation tho whitu of thu hen's eggs being about twelve per cent, of albumen and this n.ust bo furnished in her food, Dy referring to a chemical analysis of the different cereals it will bo secu that corn contains n larger amount of ulbumeu than any other eeieal.
