WILLAMETTE ARMEB: PORTLAND, OREGON, NOVFMBER 3, 18S2. $". CLIPPINGS. Our English cousins have a kind of nomen clature in their sheep business which very easily puzzl-s the casual reader. A brief ex planntion of some of their terms may not be out of place. When an Englishman Bpcaks of a "hoggot" ho means a wether in his second yearj a "ewe hogcy" is a young ewe that has never been shorn; a "gimmer" is a ewe once sheared; a "two-shear-ewe" is one in her second shearing year; a "three-shear-ewe" is one in her third shearing year, etc ; keeping a "running" ewe stock means the practice of buying ewe lambs to keep up tho flock and selling with all the produce; a "flying" owo stock is one kept where tho ewes are bought annually and sold after they have brought a lamb. Pe. pie who "talk United States" are strangers to nearly all of these terms. Concerning Shorthorns as milkers an Eng lish contemporary Bays : A number ol gentle men interest-d in agriculture visited the farms of the Shor'horn Dairy Company near Brent wood. The party were under tho guidance of the Earl of Dunmore (chairman of the win. pany) and Mr. Collinson Hall (managing director), and were shown the workings of the system under which the cattle (which are all Shorthorns) are all stall fed on the produce of the farms mixed with a proportion of foreign food, for the most part half-malted. The cat tle are housed in concrete built shfds, with mangers, always kept clean, above which flows a constant stream of pure water, so that the animals can drink whenever they wish from a clear stream. When the company acquired'the business they took 470 head of cattle. Tho stock has increased in less than eighteen months to 1,120 head of cattle. The company is now farming 2,200 acres of land, and has besides the cattle 500 Southdown sheep and 401 pig. They send to London 160,000 quarts of milk weekly. In selecting the pig best suited for convert ing food Into pork there are several matters to be observed, and these should be para mount at the outset, as no after care can com pensate for errors of selection. Fineness of bone insures having but little offal, and a pig with fine bone seldom disappoints its owner when ho is slaughtered, A broad, dished face, with snout short and turned up, indicates an aptitude to fatten, and is one of the surest in dications of a good pit;. No hog should have bristles, as these have been bred away from all of the finest breeds, and they will not be tolerated at present on, any respectable farm, for they indicate coarseness, restlessness and preponderance of offal. Besides these outward Indications, which include squareness of form, fineness of hair and length and depth ot car .b i nronensities of the pic should be Ob served. He should not be a squealer, nor .i..,n l.n Via restless. He should not eat quickly, and after his hunger 1b appeased should patiently He down, without even trav- ' eling around his pen. As a rule, tne disposi tion of the pig and his propensities correspond to his form, and but few errors will be made if the selection of the pig is made as directed. No corn seould be fed till just previous to hardening the fat, and all heating or fat pro ducing food should be avoided as much as possible during the summer. A pig when in the pen will do well enough on vegetables, refuse, etc., if given a little bran or bran slop daily, as corn does its duty later in the season. Bheep Without Water. A correspondent of an exchange alleges that if sheep are not furnished with a sufficient water supply the fleece will Bhowit, as it will when thev are not fed sufficiently or irregu larly. The statement has excited considers ble comment nd some positive denials. A correspondent ot the Bandera Bugle, for in stance, says: "Although I do not doubt 'Old Shepherd's' sincerity, wool growers should not receive his bomb too credulously. A year aeo last winter I knew a flock of 3,700 lambs, herded and bedded out without water for four months. There was a flock of 3,200 wethers on the same ranch, treated the same way. They sheared splendid fleeces, the large flock averagin? over seven pounds per head, This last winter I knew of a flock that was without water for a like number of months, and they sheared heavily. And l"nave never heard that the price of this wool was curtailed or damaged in any way. However, it maybe that Old Shepherd is true in what he fays, and that the buyers of this wool knew not what they were doing. And again, it may be that doing without water in some climates injures the wool more than in other climates. Further, it is a well-known fact that sheep, or home stock will often get and keep fatter ou softsucculent, and of course watery food, without water than with water on the same food, and who shall say that a sheep eating luxuriant grass, with the dews ot neaven upon tt, does not, in the winter at least, partake of water enough for all healthful purposes?" Well, if the animal gets all the water it needs in the way indicated, it makes no dif ference how it gets it. But we are free to say that sheep cannot get all the water they need in that way. They may get aloob, but not as well as they would if they had plenty of water. A. to the effect of a lack of water upon the fleece, we had never thought of the matter until our attention was canea to u uy the assertion made by the correspondent re ferred to. It looks, however, entirely reason, able. If the system is deprived of anything that it needs, the fleece must feel it. gUUlac Milch Oowm. If the stable is not to close as to make the cows uncomfortable, and is well ventilsted and kept clean, and as good food given as that obtained by grazing, the same cows will giva more milk in a season if kept up, than they would if running at large, unlets the grazing is done under unusually favorable conditionr. Lbfik iv." ffiSfc.. ,-r-S,- Cows in milk require but little exercise to maintiin good health. What they get beyond this requirement when grazing, which is gen erally considerable, tends to diminish their milk. Exposure to -hot sunshine, to storm, and to annoyance by flies, tends to depreciate both quantity and quality, and to give a bal- anco in favor of stabling. The more traveling cows do, the more cheesy matter do they de velop in their milk, while to support tile increased respiration occasioned by the in creased exercise, more fat is burned up and less appears in the milk. The quieter they remain, the richer their milk in butter. Upon the varying conditions which may accompany the two modes cf feeding, will depend the preference in richness and quantity of milk. It is believed to be generally on the side of housing when airly attended to. Live-Stock Journal. Corn Fodder as Cattle Food. Because an animal will cat of stalks or straw until it appears to be full, because no better food is given it, is no evidence that this full ness will protect it from the cold and putflesh upon the ribs. Nutriment, when it finally enters the blood, is in a very concentrated form, and within reasonable limits, the nearer we can give tho food to the beast in the form that will be most easily and promptly trans formed to living tissues, taxing the digestive powers moderately, tho more efficient and satisfying the feeding becomes. Still, corn fodder as an adjunct to concentrated food can be made of value. It is the go-easy habit that too many fall into of making themselves he lieve that the straw stack is a pretty good place for cattle to winter beside, and that the stalk field gives sufficient sustenance, even after the nubbins and the grass in the fence corners are consumed, that should be op posed. Live Stock Journal. TERRITORIAL. Moscow, I. T has had a season of races. . Incendiaries are at work in Walla Walla. The Seattle Herald is to issue a weekly edi tion hereafter. Inquiries are frequent in Walla Walla for small houses. Lieut. Benj. Hancock, a nephew ofGeneral W. S. Hancock, died at Port Townsend, re cently. Nine lots were sold one day at Medical Lakes and still they claim there is no "boom." Tho Hat tie Moore Company left Walla Walla owing $94. They were in straitened circumstances. A nostoffice has been established at Spring field, Sp' kane county, and another one, at Snipes, Yakima county. Freicht is carried from Pendleton to Union by team for two cents a pound, and teams are hard to nna even at mat price. Chas. Moore declined the nomination for the legislature tendered him by the Republi cans of Nez Perce county, Idaho. The common council of Wslla Walla recent ly passed a resolution censuring one of its members for unparliamentary conduct. A lady in Walla Walla gave birth to a child that only weighed two pounds and fifteen ounces. It is well and pertectiy lormea. The Knights of Pythias parraded at Walla Walla last week and attracted general atten tion. The lands of thelower Skagit overflowed last June are said to be covered with a luxu riant growth of green. There will be a novelty running race at Pendleton on the 2d of November; half mile dash tor ft purse of $300. The real estate transactions in this section, says the Walla Walla Union, placed on file at the auriitors omce aurine me ween cnuiuu Oct. 22d, aggregate 1 $35,143 10. A bov who stole a horse recently in the Walla Walla valley turns out to he an urchin with a fortune, which he will inherit when he becomes of age, Walla Walla Democrat : The Herdio Coach Company hive ordered from Philadelphia three Herdio coaches and two coaches for use on bur streets. Peter Herdie and Philip Ritz, of Walla Wallahave gone to Seattle to complete ar rangements for the establishment of a line of Herdie coaches in that city. Reports from Pnyallup state that the hop growers in im vauey hjpoi iuudiu uu iiuny to sell their hop crop, and that more than one half is being held for higher prices. B. N. F. Davis, the Skacit hop grower, raised 21 tons this vear from 19 acres. At 63 cents per pound, the present price, it will bring $26,400. it pays to raise nops some times. A big hotel, to contain 100 bleeping rooms, 25 bath rooms, etc.. is said to be in content illation at Olympia, construction to begin early in the coming spring. A similar one is badly needed in Walla Walla. The Mellcal Lake Pre savs that the dry house of Middaugh & Harwood caught fire last week and came near destroying the en H works. The drv room is somewhat in lured and about 100 pounds of the powder tost. Mr. H. E. Lew informs the Seattle Tntelli gencer that the run of fall salmon this season is very large! He received yesterday about twelve tons at his fishery, ihese mil, when properly put up, bring good prices in the mar kets of the world. The man arrested near Pomeroy on suspi cion of being :onnected with the Cummins murder at New York Bar, got himself into his present trouble by spending money lavisn ly when it ws generally supposed that he had none, juorai rreeze ontu your uiuusy. Not content wilh bringing our mails from tho East bv way ol Sacramento and rortiana, savs the Walla Walla Uuion. they were yes terday morning taken up to Dayton. If the route agent had gone to Dayton and left us our mails no harm would nave ueen aene. Sneaking of its tonnage belonging exclu sively to Seattle, the Intelligencer says: The aggregate carrying capacity of the ocean steamers laying on the wharves yesterday may be stated at a trifle less than 10.000 tins. Within less than a week tbres of the vessels referred to will leave this port, carrying away nearly 7,500 tons of coal. The Dskota, which completes the list, will carry awy her quota. The Skagit country has done well this sea son, aa a the Seattle Postlntelligeneer, of a recent date. A pall of misfortune overcast the country last June in the jamming of the river and the overflow of the low lands. An immense amount of damage was done, but it has since been offset in the country generally, by the demand and high .rices for logs, by the goed oat crop. hop, fruit, etc. The peo ple, as a body, are far ahead in he pncnion of this world's goods and comforts ot their condition one year ago. OEHERAL NOTES. Says the Palouso City paper : Palouse City is putting up some excellent buildings, much better than is usually built in small towns. Our business men have, without ex ception, shown commendable zeal in putting up ornamental and costly fronts to their buildings. Our town is knoun far and wide as being the best place in the great Palouse country for people to live cheap. Fire wood cau be had for almost nothing; all kinds of vegetables arc remarkably cheap; lumber i cheaper here than at anypoint north of Snake river. A Wallowa (Union county) correspondent writes! There are a great many visitors in tho valley, all strangers to us. Still mora im migrants are comiug. Quite a number who come into the valley to look for land to take up, pull through to the lake, turn round and pull out on the same road, and then say they have seen the Wallowa valley and want none of it, because there is no lind vacant. They make a grand mistake; there are fully 200,000 acres of good farm land lying east of the Wal lowa river, which very few travelers stop to see. It is acknowledged to tie tne uesc grain growing region of our valley. Hundreds of good ranches are waiting for the contented settler to put this section in cultivation, and all say it will ba the best part of the valley in time. The commissioners appointed, to examine the railroad built by the Northern Pacific in the Yellowstone valley have completed their labors. They report the road as constructed in a most scientific manner, and of tho best material. They bel'eve it is a good road bed, and will recommend its acceptance by tho government. A fruit cannery is to bo established at Walla Walla. It will be a vast saving of fruit which has hitherto been allowed to waste. Says the Oregon Register : Many persons have supposed that bees do not pay in Ore gon, but we presume it has been mostly on account of bad management. The following was obtiined by Mr. Olds from a colony, which was put in the hive on the 2d of July. this tirenent season ! It WIS found that the hive contained about sixty pounds of beautiful honey, which shows the apiary could be made profitable in this country if proper hives were adopted in general use, and due attention given to apiculture. The Yakima (W. T.) Record has informa tion that the Cascade Mining Company, un der the management of Captain Blenn, in tho Nigger creek mines, has a force of six men driving the tunnel on the lode located at the mill. The tunnel has passed through three different cross veins of rich ore. The ore for present working is obtained by storing in the veins pased through. The water is unusually low for the time of year. This retards work- to some extent, and Yakima needs manufac tories, yes, a railroad, and cssh, too, it may be added, to set in more active motion the industries already inaugurated. The following is Special Order No. 131 : Pursuant to instructions from the War De partment, the post of Fort Cnlvllle, W. T., will be vacated. Troop B. First Cavalry, with its allotment of transportation, will take station at Fort Coeur d'Alene. I. T. Company O, Second Infantry, will take post at Fort Spokan, W. T. Stores and property apper taining to the cavlrv service will be trans ferred to Fort Creur d'Alene. All other sores and public property required or that can bo used at Fort Spokan will he transfers d to that point. Lieutennant-Odonel Henry 'C. Merriam, Second Infantry, is cbaried with the execution of this nHer, and will give the necessary detailed instructions accordingly. On completion of this duty he will proceed to and assume command of Fort Spokan. Puget Sound Mails Timber Inspector MoTaggart hss, dnringthe past month, scaled five and a half million feet of log" on the Skagit. In ronnd numbrs, le scaled some fifteen million feet during the last three months. These fifteen million feat, at the rate of $6 50 per thouand, will bring to the Skagit loggers nearly 8100 000. or, to be pre cise aout it, $97,500, Besides these, th-e are about fifteen million feet more, on hand awaiting scaling and rle in the river. It is fair to estimate that some 20,000 additional feet will be put in during the remainder of tho seaon, making sav a total for the year of fifty million feet, or 8325,000. W. C. Meyer, of Ashland, has a Jersey bull. "Grand Duke," that tips the scales at 1,580 pounds. The Lewiston TelUr has information from the party under P. Zahner, now engaged in surveying a route for a railroad up the Clear water and over into Montana On the first of September the party was about eighty miles above Kamia, and progressing welt. They ex pected to reach the summit of the pass in about forty miles further survey. Nowhere had they found more than forty feet maxi mum grade per m'le. They were entirely through the long canyon, and the country had openelout finely, with wide bottoms alinp the river, and a wide, shallow stream and thirty miles would bring them to the Lo Lo trail crossing of the stream. The Hillsboro Independent says; Mrs. Nancy Williams, who is now over CO odd years old, lias in the last four mouths pieced a quilt made up of 2,20 pieces, and during that time did all her household work and earned $9 cash at extra work besides. Now, who's the Hillsboro girl that can beat that ? The Prineville Keu says that the supply of hay and other feed for stock is abundant this season and s'ockir.en are well prepared Lto meet the coming winter. With some the grain yield will be a failure, from various causes. Palouse Qattlte This year has ten one of unusual dryness and heat, and a few remarks on the appearance of crops at this time may interest our readers abroad. Last week we rode into the country, and found harvesting pretty well along. Grain hay had yieded from one and a forth to one ahd a half tons per acre on ground that had not received its second plowing. Corn looked green and thrifty. Fruit trees planted in April were, as a general thing, doing finely, though none had been irrigated. Some of them, however, bewail to show the effects of the continued dryness. Potatoes were of fair size, though generally not so largo as is cemtnon in other years. On the whole wo saw nothing to dis courage farmers. Our soil can evidently stand a grcaler lack ot rain than that of any other couutry, as it gathers a greater amount of moisture during the nights and is therefore better prepared for the warm days interven ing. Pendleton h'ttst Oregoniam In whatever direction one may travel from Pendleton, ho will notice substantial improvements con stantly being made. On a trip to Echo and vicinity a few days agi we noticed new plow ing and fencing and planting, where a few months ago not a cabin or even a furrow as in siiht. About six or seven miles this sido of Echo some parties from Wild Horse have just finished seeding about 400 acres. Mr. A. W, Stansberry will plant about 150 acres. The Prospect farm is preparing to seed .a largo tract of about 3. 000 acres. Though these new settlers had a partial failure this year, they are by no means discouragtd. but have faith to believe a splendid crop will reward tlicir labors next year. Yamhill Register: Mr. E. R. Poppleton, our nurseryman, presented us with some very fino specimens of fruit this week. They in cluded grapes of Isabella, Concord, Dianna und Iona, the Hyslof crab and Silver prune. The fruit is as fine as we have ever seen in the State. The crabs and prunes are very fine. Hillsboro Independent: Mrs. Nancy Wil liams, who is now over sixty years old has in the last, four months pieced a quilt mado of 2.200 pieces and during the time did all her household work and earned $9 cash at extra work besides. Now who's the Hillsboro girl that can beat that ? STATE NEWS. Wheat is 80 cents per bushel in Salem. Only one occupant in tho Marion county jail. Seattle coal delivered in San Francisco costs ;50 per ton. A. W. Sturgis is still drifting on Forest creek and doing better than ever. The recent rains have accelerated tho miner's speed in getting ready for winter. The Wyman troupe is doing Southern Ore gon. The Yreka fair was a success and the weather splendid. Wheat sells at 31 10 per bushel at the Cove, Union county. The erection ot a brick building is contem plated in the near future at Salem, A 600-pound bear was recently killed at Schnll's ferry, Washington county, A bee-keepers convention was in session at Oregon City last week. The Canyon City New says that they have an abundance of venison now-a-days. A nost office has been established atTilden, Lewis county, W. T., Sarah C. Palmer, post mistress. A teachers institute for this judicial district will be held in Oregon City during the ap proaching holidays. The distillery, spoken of some timo ago as about to be erected m Jackson county, will be operated before many months. Salem has a new express wagon for Wells, pareo & Co. The business is increasing so rapidly that a new wagon is necessary. The now fira bell was placed in the old tower at Salem. Hereafter all alarms and fire, meetings will be sounded from this bell. M. W. Hunt, son of Geo. W. Hunt of Whiteaker. enlisted in the U. S. Battery service and i now at home again. Mike has had considerable exnerien-e. The schools of Jacksonville, says the rimes, are very superior, and already there are many studnts from a distance attending the public schools there. This speaks well for Jackson ville. The North Pacific Coast Baptist Conven tion convenes at McMinnville on Thursday next. The delegates from The Dalles First Baptist Church are Rov. O. D. Taylor, Dea. pnn Wm. Ha-mon. Mr. R. W. Crandall and Mr. Marshall Hill. Th foundations for the new warehouse for the Imperial mill at Oregon City, will soon be under way. It is alongside of the old one, Messrs. Ballantyne t Chalmers have, the con tract for the stonework and already haye a number of Btooe masons on the ground. The Baker City Reveille, says that Thomas Finlayson planted 100 pounds of pitatoes on less than one-eighth of an acre of ground, and his yield was 5500 pounds. This within one quarter of a mile of Baker City, without irri gating. George Robinson, a former stage driver be tween Idaho City and Boise, is lost in the bills about Granite creek. As there has been a terrible snow storm in that vicinitv, there is but faint hope remaining of finding him alive, although there are thirty men in the hills searching for him, Savs the Oregon City Enterprise : In dig ging the found-it'on for the new warehouse a skull was found on the line just severing it from the body. The little niche is still there, with the cocoa-nut-like pcices of skull stacked up, not far removed from there orig inal position. The body is near the surface, and is probably that of an Indian. When the last trumn sounds he will not be as badly troubled to pull himself together as he might be. NEW LAW.
