(COLUMBIA BIYXJUMPROVEMBJW.
Editor Willamette Fanner:
I suppose It it of very little importance w hat
an ordinary faimer think of tl.e action, or
non-action, of auch a'body a the United
State Board of Engineer, but owing to the
very cloie connection between the facihtica
for ahipplng into and out of the Columbia
river and the treasure of compensation for
plowing the land of the Columbia river valley,
the report of Major Gillespio to the Hoard of
Engineers, and of the latter to the Secretary
of War, and by him transmitted to the United
State Senate, aa published in tho FAMitK of
March 18th are very Important papcri.
Tho report of Major Gillespie is clear in iU
statement and ilcfinlto in iU recommendation.
He propo.ee, by the construction of a dike,
to train tho waters of tho river (which for
ninny years past have been widening In their
outflow by wearing away the beach West and
Southwest of Fort Stevens to such an extant
na to threaten to wash away tho fort itself)
into a direction that will give security to tho
fort and depth to the channel recently cut
through the middle, sands near the center of
tho outflow of the river at present. In etlect,
tho Major', proposition is to narrow the out
flow by nearly two miles, and by conscqucuco
tnako permanent and deepen the present mid
dle channel.
On tho other hand, the Hoard of Engineers
recommended leaving the mouth of the river
to the unassisted operations of nature. The
report Is very obscure) but it is against action,
and I confess, to my mind, against reason
also, for it does seem to mo reasonable that
much can be dono to deepen and fix the chan
nel in tho position (or nearly so) occupied by
the (Ingle chatuiel reported to exist by Ad
miral Vancouver in 1702.
Smco that time, according to the history
given us by tho report, the movements of the
" outflow havo been everahlfting with generally
two rapidly changing channels across the bar.
Recently Peacock, spit, from the North side,
and Clatsop spit, from the South side, have
each been elongating (growing, so to speak,)
towards tho channel across tho middle sands,
and have, without tioubt, been the cause of
opening It. Major Gellisplo proposes to assist
the operations of Nature by placing a dike on
Clatsop spit that shall make it higher and
more solid, and thus provo mora effective as
an agency In deepening and preserving that
middle channel.
Tho Hoard of Engineers object to this lino
of action because i
First, They think the opproscd diko would
not bo of sufficient extent.
Second, That it might be in the way of
some future improvement of the channels.
Third, Because natural causes, now at work,
would succeed in making the desired breaches
through the sand, or operato some other con
vulsion, entirely changing tho present condi
tions of entrance before effectual progress
could 1m) made in the construction of a train
ing wall.
Tho report then proceeds to intimate the
wisdom of consolidating these middle sands,
by the construction of solid work, to have the
effect of dividing the outflow of the river into
two channels, and concludes tliusi "Hut the
changes which appear now to be imminent,
lead the Hoard to think that all constructions
at this timo would ho premature, as it is like
ly that the benefit from natural causes, which
will follow a change, may enduro for) earn.
Moreover, any pi vi which could bedevUcd
might probably interfere with the new courses
of the channels supposed about to form, and
even be impracticable under the new condi
tion of things."
Mr. Editor, tho report I have been quoting
from shows that if Vancouver was cornet
there was one wide and well defined channel
across the liar 89 years ago, which has, under
the unmolested operations of natural causes
not been there since. We have then this to
calculate oni That there are at least 80 chances
gainst one for the natural cause making us
a good channel, and a it may have been hun
dreds or thousand of 'year previous to 1703
before these cause formed that one channel
there is poor encouragement for the rapidly
increasing people whose interest are so close
ly connected with the improvement of the
mouth of our great river to wait for the un
certain working of these cause to give re
lief. Clatsop spit is only an elongation of Clatsop
plains, which, aa alluvium cast up by the
combined action of the river and the sea, fills
up the entrance to the riv er to the extent of
about one third it width. This deposit of
the current, the winds, and the waves, having
been placed there, is removable by these
tamo agencies, and during the short period of
team navigation into the Columbia, farms
have been taken off of Clatsop point by the
sea, combined with the sliallow outflow of the
river over ClaUop spit, which thereby widens j

Itself and consequently render less necessary
to the aggregate outflow, the deep channel,
or channels, that our commircial interests re
quire. I am curious to know what the Hoards of
Trade of Astoria and Portland are going to do
in relation to that report. I'm only a granger,
Mr. Editor, and may be ranked by tho aver
age commercial and military man a little more
sensitive than a clod, but I confess that the
rcadiug of that report of thn Hoard of Engi
neers tellinv the United State Senate in such
hary style "How not to do It," gives mo some
such sensation a I can imagino a warm heart
ed, earnest man, like Major Gillespie, would
hae, on lieing thrown into a snow bank to
let natural causes euro him of his disposition
to work with nature for tho object ho plainly
say ! necessary, and which he reasonably, I
think, believes to lie attainable.

Bee Culture.
Daytoy. Or., March 18, 1881.
Editor Willamette Farmer!
1 have been untieing for sometime, articles
In tho Fahmkk on the subject of bee culture,
and aa this is a subject in which I tako con
siderable delight, both for tho pleasure and
profit, these articles havo lecn a sourco of in
terest to me. It Is also bringing a subject bo
fore tho farmer, in which he ought to ho in
terested that of raising his own sweets with
hut little time and expense. This item of ex
pense is not a very small one to a largo num
licr of fanners, and tho amouut of money
spent this way during ono year would make
them an apiary that would produce honey
enough to supply a family year after year. I
have been wondering for aonictlino if you
would not lie willing to dovota a column to
apiculture, if you could get enough who are
interested in this subject to support it, and
thereby make it a very interesting feature in
your paper.
I see Emmet Smith, of Lafayette, asking
after patent bee hives. I will say I use the
Langstroth, with a simple- upper story which
I consider the beat for several reasons, which
I will not give at tho-prcaeut, aa this will do
for some future article. Hut I will aay it is a
mot able frame hive, and there Is no patent on
it; and I would advise uery person toexamiiio
this befuro adopting auy other, lccauso it is
easily managed ami gives good satisfaction.
It Is being largely adopted by the bee men of
tho East, lie-cause better results havo liven ob
tained from it than auy other.
I would like to cuquiro if anyone in Oregon
ha Italian bee for alo? and also if there It
auy ono who is lu the business of queen rais

PORTLAND, OREGON,
ALBIM CLOVER.
Com ink, Benton Co., Or., March 18, '81.
Kdit.ir Willamette Farmer i
I am requested to answer a few more ques
tions in regard to Alsiko clover, through tho
columns of tho Willammtk Fahmlk, by Mr.
0. W. Susbaucr, of Washington county, Or.;
Mr. J. F. Willmot, Clark county, W. T.;
Mr. A. Buchanan, LaCcntcr, W. T., and oth
ers. I did not intend in tho letter in tho
Fahmeu of February Oth to advertise Alsike
clover seed for sale. The demands for it hero
arc far in advance of the amouut I have for
sale I think it can be obtained of any large
seed dealer in the State at 40 cents per pound.
Thu best ftme to sow Alsiko is from thu 1st
of February to tho 'st of May, and hero on
the coast It w ill do well sown In June. With
buckwheat it does well sown on beaver dam
lands, awampand sandy liottomt; also on hill
or fern lands. When aown on dry hill and
feni lands It should lie sown In tho Fall, lie
foro the Fall rains. Bum off the fern and sow
tho seed at least in pounds to thu acre) keep
off all stock until tho fem starts in tho
Spring, then pasture very close for a week or
tw 0 turn off the stock for tw o or three weeks
and repeat as above.
Sheep, pcrhnps, aro the best, aa they tramp
tho ground cv cnly and hard. If you sow in
tho Spring and it is likely to bo smothered
out, turn in sheep enough to eat off every
thing close to the ground, then turn off the
sheep. Tho Alsike being of a very quick
growth is quite likely to get the start of the
weeds. If) mi havo a piece of meadow land
in other grasses which you wish to sow in
Alsike, sow the Alsike seed thickly on it in
Fall, or early Spring; In a few year it will
all be AMke. It is worth a trial on every
kind of roil. If the soil is very dry and loose
a good plan it to feutlout.tho Alsike hay nn
tho land in Winter) there Is always enough
seed to seed the land, and it is sura to make a
fair crop the first year.
I have sown thirteen different kinds of clo
ver; Alsike is the king of all. ATsike is not
Alfalfa, neither is it a mammoth white clover;
Alsiko has a beautiful piuk bloom, White clo
ver a white bloom, Red clover a reel bloom, .'
Alfalfa a bluish purple bloom, of a pea shape;
it does no good hero ill our climate. Alsiko
can be sown on oat or wheat stubble in the
Fall, harrow in, if thu land is very loose it is
lictternotto plow unless It is well trampel
by sheep. When aown on very rich land it
should lx) pastured closely and lato in the
Spring, to prevent it from falling down.
Now a few questional Aro Italian bees
lietter than tho common bee, and in what
reapoct are they better? I there any one in
the State that raise Italian queens for sale?
As lice pay better than any other thing, wq
should try to get tho beat, My lives aie the
the common black ben. I want the Italian
if they ate better than the common bee, I
would liko to hear from you all mi this sub
ject. Yours tnily, '
Wm. McWui.h.
Notic We hopo any persons that havi
Italian bee for sale, or know where they can
lie liad, will drop a. postal card to Mr. Mc-
Willis, and give him the information he needs.
We are very much obliged for his interesting
statement relative to Alsiko clover, which
will Interest many, and whatever pertains to
grasses is of Impoitaiico to Oregon f.umcr.

Editor Willamette Farmer:
I have enclosed (2.A0, being, I think, the
subscription price of the WillauettcFarukh
tor ono year. I lmo been wishing for nn
Oregon paper for some time, but did not
know what papers there were In your State
until I happened to see a copy of your paper
which suited mo well, lam thinking of mov
ing with my family to some part of tho Pacific
slope, and tako tho liberty, as a subscriber to
your paper, to ask you a few questions con
cerning the country around Portland. I am
an Englishman and tho hot Summers in III!
uoi. do not suit mo. I have a farm here and
my dcslro Is to move to jour State and rent
tome land until I see how I like tho country,
etc., and then I can sell out hero and make a
homo with you. Do you think I could rent
an improved farm near Portland, whereon I
could engage in the dairy business? How much
per aero would I hae to pay? What part of
Oregon is the coolest in Summer? I would, of
course, want to lie in a good farming country,
and mar aomo city, as I would like to go into
tho dairy and market garden business, I hac
been in Illinois seven years, engaged in im
Kilting B-rkshiro hogs and Cotawchl sheep
Irom 'England. I have a largo stock of the
fonncr now. Would it pay, do you think, to
bring some of them to Oregon? I havo been
told that Oregon is pretty much corned with
timber, that I would liavo to clear laud before
Icouldusoit, how is that? What season of
tho ear w ould u man be likely to rent a fat m,
in Spring or Fall? I TroiUuio the wheat is all
sown iu the Full. What wages do fortius
have to pay laborers by the mouth, 1 hope
you will excuse tho liberty I havo taken in
thu tjiAiingeip,yo4r,,)alutbla timo, but
by answering my numerous question jou
will greatly oblige, your ery respectfully,
I t, Hfc.NHY HKWt.fl.
ArtMift, Wo havo so many Inquiries of
thisliiud, and of all kinds, that we cannot
re ly to them by letter and to answer this
'ihrUgh the Faiimeiu
Dairying, we believe, will become a very
important and profitable business hero aud Is
already paying well when well attended to, as
butter choice roll range from 20o in Sum
mer to-lOoin Winter.
Mr. Hewer' plan of coming hero and rent
ing a nlacc is practicable, for there aro al
ways fauns to Iw rental as well as sold, and
we believe thu timo to buy land iu Oregon is
to in as possible, for this country is on a Ikkiiii
that will certainly raiso the price of laud.
Whether ho can easily rent an impruv ed fann
near Portland to suit him we cannot tay, but
one ran bo found near enough for all practical
purprte', aa ho can tell by a commission mer
chant and railroads are iu all directions.
Western Oregon Is cooler In Summer ami
warmer In Winter than East of the mountains.
We write this iu March with windows open
and beautiful weather. Our Summer show
very few actually hot days, and wo alwaja
have cool iiirht through the Summer, requir
ing a blanket to keep comfortable In July or
August.
Berkshire pigs are here for aalo and tome
people sell them to advantage, but generally
stock importation except as to horses and
sheep has not liewi a very profitable htui
ness.
The season to lo here to rent a fann is late
Summer or early Fall. Tho whole Willamettu
valley is good farming country. The lain)
Ivnt of the mountains is open, clear of timber,
In fact the want of timber near by is a fault,
but mountains where timber abounds, are
generally not very distant, fo'estcrii Oregon
and Washington Territory are well timbered
regions, sometimes heavily wooded, with
prairie reaches. The Willamette alley,
150x40 miles, i hill and prairie, juterspcreil
with belt of timber, to It well wooded and
watered. Whoever come here can soon de
cide how and where to locate, but the man
with moderate means can buy improved land
iu this valley and go to work immediatley on
good laud and among a good people. He can
do the same East of the mountains If he
choose to locate there.
Wheat I not all aown In the Fall. Spring
wheat frequently doe better than Fall sown.
Two years ago nut cost this valley a loss of
two and a half millions of bushels of Spring
sown wheat, otherwise than this instance there
has been no serious failure of wheat crop in
Oregon since It first settlement. Farmer
are now busy plowing and sowing Spring
wheat, and (ontinue plowing and sowing, on
wetland, all through May, when the early
itnon Is too wet. There is probably no other
country where wheat is town to many mouths
Iu the year as in Western Oregon.
The price of rented land will of course vary
with the location and character of the land.

SHELTER FOR STOC
Editor Willamette Farmcri ,A
The subject of dairying has been discussed
through the columns of the Fahmxr, alio the
subject of sheltering stock, but nothing has
been aald almut a good shelter. Now I pro-
poe to present a plan for a feed stable for
horses, cows, calves, oxen, and sheep, If you
should want to fatten either or both of tho
last named stock. Tho nttu.-tl money outlay
will not lie very laige, compared with the
amount of hay that you will tie compelled to
feed in order that your ttock will not get
poor. By lm ing a good warm house for your
stock, you save just that hiikIi fevd, If you
think that It will Iw too much fur you to

Geographically speaking Jackson county is
situa'ed near tho center of the United State)

The importance of the flour trado lu that
country is becoming more apparent every day.
The time waa when tho export of this cosw
modity ranked as equal to one-half the his.
inont of wheat or Very nearly ao; but wlula
the latter has quadrupled during th last dec
ade, Hour ha not been more than doubled ia
quantity. How flour has not kept pave whit
w heat In tho demand for fortlgn porta, w an
unable to explain.
Hut with the begiuing of tills year a eliattj
ha set in, and it I by no means unlikely that)
by the clo of Iftsl the export of flour In law
rel and tack will bo found mounting up
doublo that of 1830. Both in tho Loudon a4
Liverpool market tho inquiries for America)
flour haa been numerous, and at a coutequeBca
Die price has risen, while that of wheat haa
remained stationary, or very nearly so.
When wo consider the facilities professed
by American producer for sending the inan
iacturrd article, to tho market instead e! ihti
raw material, It will appear strange Jiow -flow
haa not been more Inrcqutttthaii It hmlatter
ly licvn Tho cost of trauifiring Dour Irom
Minexota, Illinois, or aay Dakota, is much Ira
than tho equivalent in flour, and tliereforv
there Is no reason why the rtioravaluahle com
modity should not bo handled at tlie tlccrca
ed cost. All things considered, Hour can Va
sent from the West to Now York, or to any
of thn other Atlantlo port of tho United
State, and transferred thence to Europe,
South America, or any other market nt a re
duction of thirty pur cent, on tho sum which
would be charged for the material required for
a given munticr of loaves.
It will be readily admitted that America
miller havo all along been c-insidorably ahesal
of the mJllert-of Eurio In producing a super
ior for the market. Americans, if they an
notable for any superiority over other nation
alities, in any ono thing, it is iu their labor
saving machines, Tho deputation of miller
which recently visited this country from Eng
land, showed by the very fact of their comma;
here that they expected to learn something;
ai.d if we admit a there I no reason why
we should not that they carried away with
them many idea which they could apply to
the Improvement of their machinery on their
return home, by the timu that they could get
their adaptations made our miller will he a
far in advance of them aa they were befure.
No doubt tho milling interest of tho Oil
World havo good reasons for complaining of
their American brethervn flailing iu their pre
served waters, 'liny can hardly lie ex;mvtei
to look with complacency on a movement
which iu the con rue of it development raa
not fail to havo the effect of depriving thvia
of their means of livelihood. In this they arc
entitled to our ) inp-tthy, just a the old
country farmers are; but with all this kind
liness of feeling and sincere sympathy, we
must never forget thst Imaine Is butineaa.
No inventor can produce nhtlwr-taving Imple
ment, thereby doing good to tho world, with
out at the same timo crossing miiiiu one's jtath,
and depriving wive and children of their
bicatl, let such It life; it It thu way of the
world; and thu sooner the dusty millimof Old
England make up their minds to conform to s.
now statu (if things, tho liette-r for thriuiiclvs.
But It may well doubted if the w intern pro
duct is aro quita fnongtutt iu the iiianufic
turo of whtat into flour. Tlicy aru'tlicirn-dvtr.
now living tiihjtctid to a svve-ro coni-tion
with thu hi mirt of thu uholu world, and un
less they uicrt themselves to thu very utmost
them may find themselves lie-hind iu tho race.
Where thu land carniagu is to great, a ledoo-
tiiiof thirty per cent, would tell uiot mater
ially iu their favor, aud we therefore consider
that it would be moat beneficial to them to
give more attention to the subject of milling
titan it ha for some years received. No ex
pedient should bo left untriud to improve the
process employed, ami every valuable, inven
tion should bo utilized to the utmost. Any
way. aa we have stated above, we Iioim to ten
