WOOL.
J?cw York Times.
The United States is fast becoming, if it
fia nnf nli-A-iilvlipcntriG. the first wool nrorluc
JSg country in the world. If it is second, it is
Mcond only to Australia, of which wool is the
gest product. Our yearly product is now
ose to 250,000,000 pounds, from over40,000-
sheep. Tho farmers of a country which
reduces so vast a quantity of wool should
now something of its nature and of the char
.'actenstics which fix its value, for tho better
tliequality of the product the greater tho profit
v of the production, and wool especially depends
Ifor its quality and value upon the caro and
,?kill with which sheep aro bred, fed and man
'iiged. Wool is a species of hair, differing from

y-iated scales, the points of which form very
inute hook, so closely placed thit 23,000 of
hem are to be counted upon one inch in length
f the surface of a sincrie fibre of fine Merino
ool. It is this peculiarity of wool which
vi s to it in part its characteristic ability to
felt or mat or form a tout;li, solid sheet
.when it is pressed and beaten together. It is
formed of three layers, this imbricated or
scaly surface; tho cortical (ubstanco which
contains tho coloring matter and tho central
pith. Wool, as well as hair, is a solid fibre
and not tubular, as has been stated and gen
erally believed. Like hair, it grows from a
bulbous root in the derma, or second layer of
skin, the source from which it springs being a
gland known as tho hair follicle, and from this
the substance is secreted by which tho fibre is
lengthened as itgrows. Thesefolliclesarovery
numerous, one single square inch of the skin
of a pure Merino having from 40,(T0 toGO.OOO
of them, each ono having its fibre of wool
rooted in itj while tho skin of acoirseuool
sheep lias from 5,000 to 0,000 to tho square
inch. Fine Merino wool is about one seven
hundred and fiftieth part of an inch in diam
eter. Wool differs from hair not only in its
outer structure, but in a peculiar spiral
t arrangement of its cells and outer scales, by
w hich it easily twists and curves and forms an
adherent mat or mass called felt. It consists
of carbon, hydiogen, nitrogen and oxygen to
the extent of 90.33 per cent, and 3.07 per
cent. Ot sulphur. When completely burned,
then, it leaves no ash, and can be wholly re-
sheep's back, with a soapy and oily matter
secreted irom the glands ot tho skin Known as
yolk, and this consists very largely of potash,
59 per cent, being fatty compounds and 41
per cent, mineral matter, of which 84 per cent
is potash. The yolk is therefore a potash soap
and is soluble in cold water. The welfare of
the sheep and the quality and value of the
ool depend very much upon the existence of
the oily, greasy yolk, for it prevents the wool
from matting, feltinc or "cotting" upon the
sheep's back and becoming brittle and weak.
The volk forms from 20 to 00 per cent, of the
If weight of the fleece in its natural state and
f J there is besides from 7 to 10 per cent, of oil.

robustness of the sheep, for if the necessary
secretions required to supply this complicated
structure are not furnished, the wool stopi
growing, or grow? thin and weakly, and is
harsh and brittle and breaks into small pieces,
known in the wool trade as "noils;" or it mats
upon the sheep's back, so that it is torn to
pieces in carding, or it is so short as to
be useless except for the commonest mum
factures. Wool is of several kinds, graded first ac
cording to its length, then as to its fineness.
It is short, medium and long; tho first and
second are carded and the last is combed. It
is also distinguished as short or cording, de
laine or combing. The art of combing has
been improved of late years, so that a class of
fine Merino wool, from 3 to 3J inches in
length, is now combed and used for making
those fabrics known as delaines, while the
coarser long wools aro used for worsted goods,
mohairs, bunting and alpaca. Wools are also
graded, in regard to the diameter of the fibre,
as superfine, fine, medium and coarse; these
arc again sorted as regards their strength,
elasticity and evenness of fibre. Somo fleeces
are so irregular in this respect as to require
sorting into eight or ten different qualities,
and as the services of a competent wool-sorter
are valuable and highly paid, of course fleepes
of this kind suffer as to their market value.
Again, some sheep have coarse hiirs growing
in their fleeces, on the shoulder or the flanks,
or about the wrinkles in Merinos, and as these
hairs will not take tho dye equally with wool,
they seriously impair the value of tho fleece.
These peculiarities depend upon tho breeding
of the sheep, and are to be avoided bya proper
selection of the ram and the discarding of
imperfect ewes from the flock.
Fashion hai much to do with the profita
bleness of wool-growing. When men wore
broadcloth and ladies dressed in the fine soft
merinos, the short and very fine wooled Ger
man Merinos Saxons and Silesians were
mainly kept, and other sheep were of little
account. Then at times of unusual briskness
of the wool market, when fine fleeces sold for
$1 and more per pound, choice breeding ani
mals sold for large prices, and sheep weighing
less than MX) pounds often brought several
thousand dollars a head. As fashion changed
these same sheep were sacrificed for their
pelts, having no market value for their fleece,
M and having no good mutton about them.
g Fashion has now reached a more settled and
, l reasonable condition, and the growth of our
f woolen manufactures has created settled and
I permanent markets for many varieties of wool
all that we produce from all our various
breeds, aud some of inferior kinds that we do
not rear in sufficient quantities. In fact, the
consumption of wool is now, and promises to
be for many years-fn advance of the supply;
and the prospect seems very secure for a
steady and profitable demand for whatever
kind of wool may be grown- But the prepon
derance of one kind of sheep or another is
fixed very strictly by the conditions and neces
sities prevailing in our varied agriculture.
Jear markets for lambs and mutton it does
not p"ay to grow wool alone, and it does not
pay to grow mutton sheep far away irom mar
ket!, nor can good mutton sheep or lambs be
raised on grass alone. The variations in our
agriculture, arising from local and other con
ditions, such as soil and-the most convenient
crops, are all to be considered in choosing the
kind of sheep that may be kept with the most
pretit or convenience, and in this regard
should be considered tho relative adaptation
of the various breeds of sheep, together with
the demands of manufactures. Medium wool
enters most extensively into manufactured
goods, and is the sole reliance of tho country
woolen and carding mills. This is made up of
the common native fleeces, the Southdown
and other Down grades, and low grado Meri
nos. Tho common sheep of the West, im -
proved by crossing with pure Merinos, also
supply this class of wool, which is the mate
rial ot which are made casssimeres, common
flannels, clothing goods, serges, tho better
class of blankets, common shawls, tho coarser
dress goods, hosiery, knitted goods, felt hats
of tho better kinds, gloves, coatings and over
coatings; tho coarser and poorer class of wools
from this grade of sheep supplies the carpet
manufacture and the cheaper kinds of clothing
and felted goods. Pure and high grade Merinos
supply the material for delaines, cassimeres
and other dress and fine clothing goods with
out inp; for the fine flannels, hosiery and
undergarments; for the finest shawls and tho
best goods for men's wear; also, for mixing
with shoddy for second-class goods, which
carry a fine faco but have a very poor back
ing. The longest, fine merino wool is tisod in
the best ladies' cloth and men's goods; the
long, lustrous combing wool of the Cotswolds,
Leicesters and Lincoln? is used for worsted
goods, buntings, fringes, morcons, alpacas,
mohairs, tastings, furniture damask, reps,
braids, bindings ard the soft nubias and
shawls. Considering that wo import wool
and woolen goods to the value of $30,000,000
yearly, or an equivalent to about 100,000,000
pounds of wool, there is certainly little fear
that American farmers can go astray in keep
ing sheep, or in choosing whatever kind their
circumstances or their tastes might make the
most desirable.
But whatever sheep are chosen, the lesson
intended to be conveyed by the foregoing re
marks should not be neglected. This is, that
the successful result of wool growing depends
wholly upin tho quality of the product, and
that this is'directly depending at nil times and
under all circumstances upon tho health and
condition of the sheep. This, of course, is in
proportion to tho carefulness and skill with
which the flock is fed, sheltered and prstected
from accident and damage. It matters not in
this respect what sheep is kept if they are
ell kept, but it does matter if a farmer
within 100 miles of a large market where lamb
and mutton aro saleable at a good price should
make tho mistake of keeping sheep wholly for
their fleece, or if the shepherd on tho plains
should attempt to keep a flock which requires
the best of shelter, and roots and high grain
feeding, and will not jicld a good fief ce unless
it is fed so light that its carcass is always
ready for tho butcher. The right sheep in the
right place, and tho right man and the right
management comprise the test which each
one must elucidate, expound ami practice for
himself as his tastes and circumstances may
vary.
Sheep. Their Types and Characteristics.
The Merino is the only sheep among tho
many breeds introduced into tho United
States that has attained a higher typo in tho
hands of American breeders than is to be
found among the best specimens in the coun
try whenca impirted. While with other
breeds and varieties steady and heavy drafts
aro being necessarily made upon their "na
tive land" for animals, with the hope to im
prove upon tho American-bred animals of
the same type, the breeders of Merinos find
in tho fine-wool fl. cks of the United States
the best specimens of their favorite heep.
Good judges have frequently carefully ex
amined tho flocks of Europe with the object
of securing breeding animals that promised,
in somo important particular, improvement
upon tho best fine-wool specimens in this
country, and have as often returned with the
conviction that the model fine-wool sheep
for tho American husbandman was the
American Merino.
This conclusion is not to be ascribed to
pride of country or such local prejudice as
might be expected, in Borne measure, to give
bias to judgment and lend shape to conclu
sions. It will be found to be sustained by
the closest analysis. In weight of fleece pro
portioned to weight of carcars; in weight of
cleansed wool from such fleece; in aggregate
return upon nccesary investment, tho strict
est comparison among the several fine-wool
varieties will be found favoring the American
Merino.
A noticeable increase in size and weight of
carcass has been made within the time most
especially covering tho improvement of the
Merino at the hands of American breeders.
For a while (and at present in certain locali
ties with certain individuals), efforts of
breeders have been directed towards tTio de
velopment of wool production without ma
terially increasing the size of the carcass.
This, however, is not the most popular stand
ard, and a still further increase in size of
body, so far and so last aa it may be secured
without sacrifice of other merits, may be
looked for in tact, is demanded by those
sections of the country that now furnish the
market for the majority of breeding stock,
and which are hereafter to constitute the
main wool-producing localities.
Such increase in size will be neither rapid
nor extreme; but that it will come may be
predicted with little risk of disappointment.
While the American Merino is unqueition
ably most prominent and valuable as a wool,
bearing sheep, from the fact that efforts of
breeders have been mainly, if not exclusively,
exerted in developing that characteristic, it
is clear to the observant student of live-stock
husbandry that this animal is destined to a
future of no inconsiderable importance in tho
relation it will sustain with reference to the
raeat.(upply for a rapidly augmenting popu
lation. Already the overflow of male ani
mals from frontier, flocks, largely of Merino
blood, has recognition in meat stock centers.
These animals, when approaching tho age of
fleece deterioration can be most profitably
disposed of as mutton stock; and as their
compact and well-fatted carcasses becomo
familiar to consumers, tho remaining preju
il . . . . .
wr K'"i juenno mutton a prcjmuce
th less foundation than the casual observer
would suspct will gradually disappear.
This conclusion finds ampin warrant in the
fact, that in the principal markets of the
country the price of mutton sheep is now
1 determined more by the condition than by
the breed of tho animals offered. Hence, it
follows that the increase in size already se
curedamounting from 25 per cent, to 40 per
cent, over original importations is by no
means likely to prove the limit. The full
extent of the increase of carcass is most fully
realized by the close observer, or upon meas
urement. Tho improved symmetry secured
by imparting rotundity to the body, shorten
ing the legs, deepening the chest, broadening
and filling tho hips and thighs, and other
wise generally improving tho physical de
velopment, has (nought weight without ma
terially adding to height, tho first point to
meet the eye of the non-critical observer.
Tho most conspicuous improvement in tho
American Merino upon its imported ancestry
is apparent in the fleece. Here tho gross
weight from a single animal has been in
creased three hundred per cent, to four hun
dred per cent, in some instances say from
7 lbs to 3" lbs in rams' fleeces. Pconring
tests show that the amount of cleansed woo
from these representative fleeces has been
more than double, w hile being otherwise im
proved. In fio.911033 of fiber certain spsci
mens of American Merino will bo found
rivaling the standard Paxon of a few decades
ago. In 188, Dr. H. A. Cutting, of Lunen
burg, Vt., at the request of the Vermont Me
rino Sheep Breeders' Association, carefully
measured a series of samples of wool fibers
from American Merino sheep. The average
diameter of rams' wool in the collection was
ascertained to be 1-1045 of an inch; the fin
est, 1 1411. Ewes' wool, averago diameter,
1-1308; finest, 1-18S1 of an inch. When
theso measurements are compared ith
earlier ones recognized by Youatt, RanJall
and others, a most remarkablo improvement
is manifested, even after duo allowanco has
been made for the greater accuracy obtainablo
under improved appliances now within reach
of scientists, for a comparison of samples
outlined many years since with those from
flocks of the present day, fails to discloso to
the unaided cvo so great a reduction in diam
eters as is indicated by these figures in real
ity as much as one-half. fireedera' Gazette.
The Deschutes River.
Tho Deschutes river is one of the most ro
mantic and beautiful streams in the State. It
rises on tho eastern slope of tho Cascades
north of Mount Tliielsen in the northern pirt
of Lake county, flows in a northeasterly di
rection, a distance of about 200 miles, and
empties into the Columbia a few miles abovo
The Dalles. It is supplied chiefly by the
snows of these mountains, and is icy cold from
its source to the mouth. Over ono hundred
miles of its length is through the rough, wild
and almost barren portion of this county,
known cs tho lava beds and rimrocks.
Though in many places it has valleys, which
are settled by thrifty stock men. It is truly
astonishing at the amount of water carried off
through its channel. .Its depth does not vary
two feet during the whole year. Somo of the
wildest and most magnificent scenery is found
along this stream, many views of which havo
been taken, and are now in possession of the
citizens of this place. It is not navigable for
any great distance in any place, on account of
the extreme swiftness of its current. But the
most beautiful feature of this magnificent
stream is tho variety, and immenso numbers
of trout found in its waters. Any ono but a
murderer at heart becomes ashamed of himself
after fishing in this river a day or two. Sixty
fish an hour is very fair, if not good angling,
hut this feat has been accomplished in the
Deschutes. Tho fish aro trout, no other kind
ever being caught, except an occasional white
fish.
i neso trout vary in length irom six to
eighteen inches, embracing the several vari
eties of mountain trout, silver-sides, red
sides and salmon trout. From its sourco to a
distance of perhaps a hundred miles, it is a
continuous torrent a series of cataiacts and
falls. In many places for miles its banks are
over a hundred feet in height, in some places
rising perpendicularly one hundred and fifty,
or two hundred feet. Prhier'dlcftem.
Black Sand Mines.
Black sand mines, have bern worked at in
tervals for eoveral years past, on both North
and South beaches. At the present time n
Mr. Gibson is working the one on South
beach, In order that our valley readers may
understand something of the nature of black
sand mining, a short description of the modus
operandi will not be out of place. The strata
of black sand is located but two or three feet
below the beach surface. Sluice boxes made
of lumber that is irregularly sawn are con
structed, the irregular Burface of the bottom
board in the boxes making all the riflle that
is necessary to save tho precious metal. The
gold found in this mine is very fine, globular
in shape and covered with a coating of whaf
our informant called manne oil. After the
sand has been thrown into the sluices, the
riffles becoming sufficiently loaded, the boxes
are swept out, and the sweepings boiled in a
solution of potash. This process removes the
oil from the gold, when it can be readily gatli,
ered by the quicksilver. Mr. Gibson says he
is not becoming wealthy very rapidly, though
he is malting fair wages. Yarjuina lidy Pott,

Yesterday afternoon Chief of Police La;,
pens was notified that a mau living on Grant
street, between Fourth and Fifth, needed
looking after, as he was groaning and ap
peared to le in trouble, and that ha kept his
doors locked and refused to admit anjou".
The chief, taking Wing with him, proceeded
to the house, which belongs to Van DeLash
mult, and finding every door and window
fastened took out a sash, with a chisel. The
stench emitted when an opening was mado
was overpowering, but Wing managed to hold
his breath long enough to crawl in and open
tho front door, and the chief rushed through
and opened tho back door so as to allow a
current of fresh air to pass. Tho man who
was found to be C.J. Wcisswaugc, aciil
engineer, was lying on tho bare floor near a
wash bowl, which was filled with blood thick
and putrid. The man, was unable to speak.
He was raised up and placed in a sitting posi
tion, and the chief loving the officer to
watch, started down tow n for a conveyance
to taku the sick man to the hospital. After
going a couple of blocks he was overtaken bv
Wing, who said the man was dead. The chief
then turned the matter over to Coroner Coiiko
who brought tho body to the morgue, from
whence it will bnried to-day unless claimed
by friends, if there ant any. Hemorrhage of
the lungs was the causo of his death He had
been sick for somo days, but absolutely de
clined all proffers of aid oxtended by the
neighbors, lie had nothing to cat in the
houso and no bed, or much of anything that
could be called furniture. There was a little
oil stove ho used for cooking, a wash bow 1
and old chair, and one or two other things
about the the room. Tho inside of tho houso
was a picture of tho most abject poverty. The
coroner will hold no inquest as to the cause
of death is known beyond a question. Weiss

A Wonderful Maililn'-.
Tho annexed, in regard to tho Parrish har
vester, wo clip from the Salem Talk. It is
to bo hoped that the machine may provo a
success, but many have doubts of it. The
government ot xsew .ealaml ottered a very
large reward for such a machino a year or two
since, and several were brought forwaid, but
all failed to do tho work required in a sat
isfactory manner, and tho prize was not
awarded.
Tho Parrish harvester, containing tho
header, thresher and sacker in ono combina
tion, is tho greatest improvement in agricul
tural machinery the country has witnessed
for years. Tho invention will be of great
benefit to the world. It saves expenso, it
saves labor and cxpo'litcs thoharvist. The
wheat is threshed and sacked the eimo mo
ment it is cut. Six horses and two men will
do any harvest with this machine. It has
t-iken timo to perfect it, and its small sizoand
efficiency aro tho astonishing features about
it. It is now being worked on tho farm of
J. L. Parrish, cast of tho railroad, East
Salem. Tlioso who are curious enough to see
theRreatcst improvement in harvest machinery
of tho age should go and sea this combination
at work. Every farmer can own one and his
two hoys can ilo all the harvesting of wheat,
oats or barley. If the farmer has no boys, his
girls can do the work, Tho cost of this ma
chino is much less than the old machine. In
another year we may look for them in every
field. Like all new inventions it docs so
mueh that it will take a little time to over
come prejudico and stand off the influenco of
capital in other machinery. But its day is
fast coming.
The Oregon Hlioll line.
This railroad is now comnletod from Gran
ger, on the Union Pacific, to Cokcvillo, a dis
tance of 80 miles, and is being operated be
tween these two points. Track laving is pro
gressing very rapidly between Co'jevillo and
boda .prinfB, says the llereMe, the latter
point being 140 miles from Granger, and to
which place the road will be finished some
timo in September. Tho track of tho railroad
swing on to the Port Nenf river, down which
it runs for 30 miles, to Port Neuf Station, on
tho Utih and Northern railroad. Reaching
Port Neuf Station the Oregon Short Line fob
lows tho Utah and Northern track for ten
miles, to Pocatelln. This stretch of track is
already laid, as well as 30 miles from Poca
tcllo to American Falls, and the road over this
section is being operated. At American Falls
a splendid iron bridge spans Snake river
directly over the falls a magnificent spec
taclc. Westward of this point they aro just begin
ning to liy track and havo nearly 5000 men
scattered along the lava beds between Ameri
can Falls and Wood river, a distance of 80
miles. It is expected that this section will
lie completed and in operation about Septem
ber 1st.
It is expected that the road, if tho Winter
remains open, will bo finished to Hiker City
by tho end of next year 18S3. At Baker
City it will connect with the Oregon Railway
and Navigatian Company's line, making a
route to Portland and 1'uget Sound 200 miles
shorter than the Northern Pacifiowill be from
Chicago, when completed.
