Hon Mutton Bnep-
America Agriculturist.
The breeciicgMime for sheep is jiut ahead,
and flock masters should be'pUnning for early
lam W, t meet the wants of the market next
season. ,, We need more fine-wooled sheep,
more long wools, bat (specially more mutton
sheep. The manufacturers can get wool to suit
their purposes, if they have to import it; but
Kood mutton for the million, if had at all,
must be raised within easy reach of the local
markets. There is a lamentable dearth of
good mutton in the village and rural markets,
as we know from a personal experience of
thirty years and more. Lamb is quite plenty
in the summer months, at the retail price of
twenty to twenty-five cents, and mutton in
the fall months at a little less price than good
beef, but the rest of the year it is hardly to be
had at any price, as If it were a thing out ot
season, like strawberries in December. We
ught to have mutton the year round, so that
delicate 'stomacha thai eschew veal in iprinjr
and fresh pork in winter, can have a change
from beef and poultry to mutton chop at their
convenience. Oocd dog laws have been passed
in some of the States, so that sheep raising is
possible, and the owner gets damages when
his flocV is woiried by the dogs. There is im
provement, but it is very slow, and there is
great want of information as to the best
breeds for mutton, and the best way to im
prove the flooks of common sheep. The pure
Southdown is the mutton sheep of all other
breeds, unquestionably. "Then, after this, the
various othe'r families of Downs, as the Hamp
shires, and other English shire, taking the
names of the counties in which they are bred.
A' Sodthdown ram, running with a flock of
Merinos or common sheep, will bring grades
giving an excellent quality of lamb and mut
ton, though not equal in flavor to the purely
bred. If these grades are put with a Cots
wold ram, we have a sheep much increased in
sixe, with an excellent quality of mutton.
This sross gives a carcass from one-quarter to
one-third larger than the grades, and some
times one-half. The lambs mature early, and
are great favorites with the butcher. We
have found no better erosi than this in our
sheep breeding. It is not necessary now to
pay fancy prices for good breeding rams,
either of the Soutbdowns or Cotswolds.
They are quite widely distributed, and can be
had at prices within the reach of any thrifty
farmer. To get the best service out of the
ram, he should not be left to run loose with
the flock, as is the common practice, but
should be kept by himself, on generous feed,
and led out when the ewes are in heat. Kept
nder this restraint, he will serve a larger
number of ewes, and the offspring will be
more vigorous. Mutton sheep are so easily
raised, and the flesh is su wholesome an arti
cle of diet, that every owner of a good grazing
farm ought to cultivate them for the supply of
his table and the local market. The export of
mutton carcasses to England has become a
large business, and cannot fail to stimulate
this industry. Get more Southdown blood
into your flock.
HofS-
The hog is an important factor in farming
where I live, and we all love the hog hog
and hominy, pork and beans", ant sparer! b and
'sassage" are dainty dishes with us, and n;xt
to our horses, (tbey come first) and our wo
men, (they occupy the second place of honor)
and our Bourbon whisky (thank the Lord for
his blessings), the hog is thought the most ul
in the backwoods of old Kentucky. We raise
large crops of corn, which we make into Bour
bon and nominy, and feed our horses on blue
grass, and our hogs on wheat and clover, with
a little corn in the fall to harden the meit.
But with all our pretended love for pork, I
think there are very few of us who handle
'hogs as we ought, ot as well as we know bow
to. The practice of leaving hogs unsheltered
in open rail pens during feeding time is waste
ful and extravagant, besides being cruel. If
warm sheds and close pens are supplied, hngs
will fattvn much faster and on a smaller al
lowance of grain than if left exposed to the
cold fall rains and the early snows of the win
ter. The practice in Kentucky is to select the
poorest convenient spot on the farm, build a
rail pen without shelter or water,. turn the
hogs in and feed corn on the stalk to them by
the wagon load. When the, rains come the
ground Is plowed np by the sharp hoofs of the
porkers, and a pen full of mud and water,
with an occasional hog sticking out here and
there through the pen, ii the result. The
honest old farmer continues to haul his corn
and throw it ioto this sea of mud, and at kill
ing time (every farmer tries to 'have his hogs
fat enough to slaughter the first cold spell), he
kills, ft or thin. If the weather is nnususlly
disagreeable during the period of feeding, and
tho farmer's hogs come to the rack in,a poorer
condition than usual, he goes straightway to
his neighbor with hit complaint
Now, I say, neighbor B., did you ever see
so little a substance in the com as thar is this
year? Why, thar now, is them fifteen hops of
mine that war as thin as pertater .vines when
I killed 'em, and they'd eat nigh onto four
times enough to have made them fancy fat if
thar bad been any substance at all in the corn..
It is a well-known fact that pork is more
easily made in warm than in cold weather,
and yet a great many do not seem to realize
thtt warm sheds in cold weather are cheaper
than corn to keep np the animal beat. I have
always advocated early feeding, say commenc
ing about September 1st, because the pork is
more easily secured, and became the whole
business of killing and cutting np and packing
down is done away with before Christmas.
The good housewife has an opportunity to
render her lard and bag her sausage before
preparing for the holidays, and has a short
time betweea for rest also. The only objection
the. plan ot peaskf hogs early tart I kaow
of is that sometimes the fall is open sad warm
and the (farmer is compelled to feed longer
than he, wishes, but if only requires a small
amouLttj keep fat hogs fat, white poor hogs
aie slow to fatten in cold, freezing weather on
at),- amount of feed. Bx.
Toe Polled Aagua Cattle of Scotland.
This breed is now attracting considerable
attention. James McDonald, in'his "History
of Polled Aberdeen or Angus Cattle," under
takes to find the origin of hornless cattle.
He says the favorite theory is that the abori'
ginat cattle were provided with horns, and
the polled cattle must be regarded as a dis
tinct departure from the original order o
things. This was Darwin's view. Hero
dotus is the only early writer who mentions
them the hornless cattle of Seythia. About
200 years ago several varieties of polled cattle
were found on the British Isles. Only three
distinct breeds survive the Galloways,
Aberdeens and Norfolk. The Angus or
Aberdeen, the author thinks, descended from
the aboriginal horned cattle of Northeastern
Scotland. 'The breed is supposed to bave
originated a century ago. The total number
of tbis breed registered is 6,984. This rather
small number and the active American de
mand have led the Scotch to suspeet that
American breeders are trying to get control of
the breed.
Baiter Pulling Horse.
A Michigan farmer writes : "In April last
I bought a mare which soon after exhibited a
vicious habit of pulling at the halter, if it was
sufficiently strong she would throw herself in
the stable. I procured about twenty feet of
five-eighths rope, put it under her tail,
crossed it on her back, and bringing it for.
ward and down each side of her breast, put
both ends through the halter ring and tied
them to the manger. She soon settled back
on her haunches, and finally threw herself,
and floundered violently for a short time, and
then began to beg for help. I let her groan
and struggle until she was glad to have me
help her up. It cured her completely al
though she was well along in years, and na
turally self-wilkd and high-spirited."
Whlte-Washlnj Stables.
Chas. E. Benton, of Sharon county, Conn.,
says: "The milk company require farmers to
whitewash stables and milk houses once a
year. But any one who has once enjoyed the
luxury of a whitewashed stable will not be
likely to discontinue the practice. Armed
with a small force pump and a barrel of white
wash, more whitiwashing can be done in a
few hours than can be done in a week with a
brush."
HoRafcs abb not huminely treated, even by
their most devoted lovers. Trotting mares
are inhumanly driven and their powers
warped from all possibility of true reproduc
tion, by the bad treatment of owners who will
weep sentimental tears over them when they
die on the race track or in the stable. Poor,
long-lived things if their agony could be
over at oncet but it is prolonged while panting
sides and laboring heart will stand the strain;
and the more eager they are to do their very
utmost, the more cruelly are they urged on to
their death by overexertion.
The orana and Hoses Coole.
A good deal has been said and written
about the Grand Coole; its remarkable ap
pearance, its cause, -ind the supposition of its
once having been the channel of the Columbia
river; The head of the Coole is above the
mouth of the Okanagan. Its course is south
nest and is said to be from thirty to forty
miles long. The facts in this connection and
surrounding circumstances do not sustain the
long-entertained opinion that it has ever been
the bed of the river. In the first place the
head, or the northeast end of it, is some 600
or 700 feet above the level of the Columbia.
Its sides are of irreirnlar shape, at places over
two miles in width, and at others contracted
to only a few hundred yards. There is no
washed gravel or other evidences of a heavy
flow of water through it, even at a remote
period. The meat convincing proof, if there
were no other, is the fact that the south end
terminates abruptly against Badger mountain;
has a square perpendicular jog of 300 or 400
feet, and is all of 700 feet above the level of
the Columbia river.
Abreast of where the Grand Coole termi
nates, the Moses Coole has its beginning ; it
laps by the former, and is formed by the shal
low divergent sags on the plain, which deepen
as they proceed (southwest, and in five or
seven miles forms quite a deep cut, and like
all other ravines has many small water ways
crnr.ing into it from the sides. This Coole is
soma twenty-five or thirty miles in length',
and is the outlet for quite number of springs
that flow from its sides and form a running
creek that enters the Columbia a little below
Rock Island, which is some twenty-two miles
below the mouth of the Wenatchie river. It
.is in this Coole Moses and his tribe used to
spend their winters, and in the spring plaot
their gardens. Hence its name. There U a
tract here of about 1,000 acres of good farm
ing land.
There is one peculiarity about the Grand
Coole that is not explainable. In traveling
np the Coole, the traveler, in the hottest
weather, at a certain point experiences a very
cold current of air, the course of which is
nearly square across the path ; by following
this current to the aide of the hill and pick
ing away a few loos stone there is ice to b
setn, even la the hottest weather, and by
making a little hole in tb sand a draught of
ice-cold water oan be obtained. This is a
phenomenon that scientist might explain,
hut up to this time no on ha solved the
mystery, although a good many men have
aeen it. It is a matter of interest and well
worthy the attention of aciantiae heads.

WILLAMETTE FARMER:' PORTLAND, OREGON, NOVEMBER
WALLOWA TALLST.
'
Strange a it may appear, bnt little is
known Of this valley, comprising neaaly one
half of Union county. Its area, soil and cli
mate have never been presented to the public
through the press, and the immigration now
pouring into it is the fault of private letters
written by early pioneers to .their Eastern
friends. We have often been asked for a
printed description of Wallowa valley by par
ties desiring to send it East, but have b-n
impelled to admit that we had none and
knew of none. Last week, desiring to become
better acquainted with the citizens of the
county, we visited the Wallowa valley, and
herewith is the result of our observations :
The valley proper, beginning at Logan
Schafer's, at the mouth of the canyon, to the
head of Prairie creek, is about thirty-eight
miles long, divided luto what is known as the
Lower, Upper and Middle valleys. The av
erage width of the arable portion of the three,
includirg the low foot-hills, is about twenty
miles. Not over one-third of the country is
level valley land ; the balance, and, we might
add, the better portion of it, consists of low,
rolling hills very much like an Iawa or Illi
nois prairie.- The Wlllowa river, pouring out
of that picturesque gem known as Silver
lake, runs like a mill race through the entire
length of the, valley. The country through
out' is well watered by numerous small
streams, along the banks of which is collected
the greater portion of the inhabitants.
The Lower valley, into which the traveler
first 'enters, is about seven jnlles long by three
wide, is quite level, and much of it is covered
with timber. The finest meadow lands, fur
nishing enormous crops of wild hay, are here
found bordering the river for several miles t
the balance of the level portion of this valley
is composed of thin gravelly aoil, with here
and there some rich spots ; it is at present in
habited by men engaged principally in stock
raising, only a few acres being under cultiva
tion ; however, we saw crops of wheat, oat
and timothy which would rival any Grand
Ronde production in quality.
The Middle valley, divided from the Lower
by a range nf low, rolling hills, is about ten
miles long by four wide. The soil through
out is rich, capable of producing the staple
grains and vegetables of this zone in quanti
ties to suit the taste of almost any farmer.
Many old residents of Grand Bonds have fine
stock ranches in this valley, and all are get
ting rich.
Lostine is situated in the upper portion of
this valley, on the west fork of the Wallowa
river. It contains one general merchadising
store, kept by Matt. Johnston, formerly of
Union, a blacksmith shop run by Mr. Keelsr,
a former resident of Summerville, hotel,
stable, school house, postoffice and several
residences. Quite a trade is being carried on
at this point. About one-half mile above
tnwn Mr. J. H. Reeder has just completed
and has in operation a sawmill ; it is his in
tention to add a grist mill to it next summer)
he has ample water power for both.
The stock range in and about Middle val
ley appears to be unlimited. Very little of it
is nnder fence, and stock roam at will over a
large section of country, covered with a luxu
riant growth of bunch grass. Soveral or
chardMet out a year or so ago are now bear
ing nicely ; that of Mr. Wilson being loaded
with as fine a crop of apples as it has been our
pleasure to look on lor many a day. Vege
tables of nearly all kinds, including potatoes,
cabbage, beans, cucumbers, melons, etc., are
produced in large quantities on well tilled
farms.
The Upper valley, beginning at D. P. Rea
ds' place, about two and one-half miles north
of Alder, stretches away southward to the
dividing ridge on Sheep creek, ono contin
uous belt about ten miles wide of the finest
fsrming lands in Oregon. About Alder the
soil is extremely rich and well watered and is
all appropriated. Many fine farms, well im
proved and fenced, are here found, and the
large crop of grains, fruits and vegetables
give ample evidence of the riohness of the
soil and the salubrious character of the cli
mate. Prairie creek citizens claim, and we believe
justly, to have the garden spot of the valley.
Very little farming has been dene, but such
linds as have been sown to grain show the
soil to be unexcelled. We saw on Mr. Robert
Dc wney'a place wheat sown on the sod on the
20th day of June, from three to five feet in
height, of good stand, longheads, and plump,
hard kernels, which judge estimate will yield
from forty to fifty bushels per acre. We ssw
the same kind of grain on Geo. Stockum's,
Daniel Kinney's and Geo. Teel's farms. We
also saw gardens containing all kinds of vege
tables grown in Grand Ronde valley ,'and fully
equal in quantity and quality. The objection
heretofore mad.; that Wallowa is too cold and
frosty to raise vegetables, is not well taken.
The Upper valley is well watered by Prairie
and Little Sheep 'creeks, besides numerous
small branches. Joseph and Alder 'contend
for supremacy as the distributing point. Jo
seph has about twenty houses, comprising the
large mercantile establishment of MCully
Co., two blacksmith shops, on cooper shop,
one wagon maker's shop, several carpenter
shops, one of the best school houses in the
county, a good hotel and several residences.
Alder has a few more houses, and about the
same kind of business is transacted, with the
addition' of a cheese factory,
To the east and north of the valley, a gen
eral description of which we have attempted
to give, lies a belt of open, rolling hills, very
similar to the Weston and Walla Walla wheat
lands. From experiment, we axe told, no bet
ter wheat land can be found. This belt of
country is ten to twelve mile wide and forty
long, of which at least one-third is arable
land. The valley la bordered with a heavy
growth of timber, out of which three saw
mills are now making the best quality of lum
ber to supply the local demand. Bunch gnu
range in unlimited quantities border the val
17 on all sides, making it one of the most de
sir'-! sto;k countries to b found.

Finer farms do not "lie out of doors" than
oan be taken, up within sixty miles of this
town. There is room for two thoustnd more
families in Wallowa, and then they will not
be crowded. .To the immigrant looking for a
home, we would say, go and see the Wallowa.
To the young man who is unsettled, we offer
the advice, go to Wallowa and take you up a
farm. To those seeking cheap lands, we
would point to Wallowa. Any and all classes
can find room and opportunities to get rich in
Wallowa valley.
THE NORTHWEST.
State Journal.
During a recent visit to Puget Sound we
learned some facts that may be of interest to
our readers. The country along the sound is
now filling up rapidly with people from the
East. At Olympia, which is the most beau
tiful site for a town we saw along the sound,
a number of brick and frame houses havebeen
erected this season, and the place appears to
be prospering, although there is n excite
ment and no talk or expectation that there
will be a great commercial city at that point.
Property is not high at Olympia, but is in
fair demand, at prices about the same as, or a
little higher, than similar property commands
in Eugene or other towns in the upper Wil
lamette valley. It is a nice place for resi
dences, has considerable farming country back
of it, and, being accessible to ships from all
parts of the world, it must become a place of
considerable importance. It is surrounded
with an immsnse quantity of good timber,
and has unrivalled water-power in the falls of
the Des Chutes, at Tumwater, about a mile
above Olympia. Coal has recently been found
near Tenino, the point on the Northern Pa
cific Railroad where the narrow-gauge road
branches off to Olympia. It is reported that
the Central Pacific Railroad Company has
possession of these coal lands, and is now ne
gotiating for the narrow-frauge railroad.
Should they get possession of this road, they
would no doubt change it to a wide gauge,
and put on a line of steamers to carry coal to
San Francisco. The trains -run twice each
way daily on this road. They come out in
the morning from Olymnia to connect with
the south bound train for New Tacoma ; re
turn to Olympia ; come baok in the afternoon
to connect with the north bound train from
Kalama, and return to Olympia at four or five
in the afternoon. Each trip the train stops
in the forest, the locomotive goes out on a side
taack and brings in a long train of cars, each
car carrying a log from thirty to seventy feet
long, hitches them to tho train and take
them to Tumwater, where they are put in the
bay. They charge titty cent a thousand for
taking the logs in, the freight on each load
averaging about $30. There is a small logging
camp just east of Olympis. The logs tram
this camp are hauled by oxen on a "skid
road," made by laying logs a few feet apart
across the road, partly imbedded in the
ground. Notches are cut in the top ot these
"skids" and kept well oiled. The logs are
rolled up on this "skid road," and then
hauled to the water over these cross timbers.
The building of this road about one and one
half miles long and a bridge over a ravine cost
$6,000. The oxen used are worth $200 to
$250 a pair. We saw eighteen oxen and six
men wrestling with a log that would be worth
about $40 when delivered in the bay. They
broke several chains, and succeeded in moving
the log 100 feet in perhaps thirty minutes.
However, after getting it fairly on the "skid
scad," they would msve along smoothly, and
make two or three tripa- per day. We re
ceived much information and many courtesies
whils at Olympia from Postmaster J. N. Gale,
ex-Register of the Land Office Brown, Gov,
A. A. Newell, Sam Ward, Republican nomi
nee for Councilman in the Territorial Legisla
ture, Joseph Gale, and others. We visited
Oyster Bay, about twenty miles from Olym
pia, in company with Messrs. J, N. Gale, Geo.
C. Israel, J. B. McMillan, son of Senator Mo
Millan of Minnesota, and a few others. Mr.
Ward owns an oyster bed, and makes two
trips a week to cany freight and passenger
and bring up his oysters. On this occasion he
had 6,000 pounds of oysters in sacks, which at
three cent a pound, the present price, were
worth $180, Joseph Gab has five acres in
oysters here, from which he has sold over
$10,000 worth in the last two years. Joseph
and J. N. Gala are both former residents of
Eugene City, and are personally known to
many of our readers.
At Seattle we found a great boom and ex
citement in real estate. The town is building
up very rapidly. Whole blocks and rows of
blocks have been built recently. Every house
is occupied, and dozens of new ones going up
in every direction. "ThVbbtels, and there are
a number of large ones equal to anyin Port
land, are all full. Judge Jacobs, formerly a
resident of-Oregon and known to many of our
readers, who has served many years as U. 8.
Judge in the Territory and two terms as dele
gate in Congress, has bis office in a wooden
building on James street, several blocks out
from the water front and at the foot of the
hill. He informed us that the two lots on
which his office stands were offered to him
about a year ago for $7,000, but he consid
ered the price. too high and refused to take
them. Recently the owner was offered and
refused to take $25,000 for the same two lots.
A year or two ago Judge Jacob was pawing
where some lot were being sold at auction for
ten to fifteen dollars apiece. He thought he
would purchase about five lots for hi boys,
but got interested and bought thlrty.eight
lots, at a cost of about $500. He felt vexed
when he went home to think how foolish be
had been. He has since sold $1,200 worth,
and has about $9,000 worth left, at present
prices. Mr. H. A. Smith, who owns a larg
tract of land fronting on the bay three milt
north of Seattle, for which bo ask from $200
to $300 per acre for all the land near the bay,
1 informed us toat be bought a lot ten or twelve

years ago, on James street, for $100, whioh
would new se'.l for $10,000.-Lota-one and
one-half mile below Seattle,' in the timber,
an aelliug for $60 each, and on the hill, two
or three hundred feet above the town, lot
are held at $500 to $1,000 apiece. The town
is laid out for miles over the hills in every di
rection, among the trees and brush, and lot
are held at fabulous prices.
New Tacoma is also improving quite rapidly,
althongh not so fast as Seattle.
In Portland the improvements are g-eater
than at any place we visited on the sound.
The city is growing with amazing rapidity.
Whatever may be the fate of Seattle and
other plaees on the sound, the future of Poit
land is now assured. It must necessarily be
the chief metropolis of Oregon, and a city on
the sound as large as San Francisco or New
York would not prevent Portland from be
coming an important commercial oity, much
larger than it is now. With the Willamette
valley behind it, capable of supporting a
million people, Portland must become a large
city. Property there, on a few of the busi
ness street in the center of the city, ha
reached full prices, but a few streets back and
down the river, where the principal street
will be, lot are worth two or three thousand
dollars, which is only a fraotion of what they
are now selling for on the principal business
streets, either in Portland or Seattle. A very
few years more will give Portland a popula
tion of 100,000, er perhaps 200,000, and place
it among the important commercial citie of
the United States.
What Become of Them?
Not many years ago, we are told that the
game birds of this vicinity were much more
nnmerons than they now are. It is interest
ing at least-, but withal a sad reflection, when
we hear the old settler tell of the days when
ii i . w , m .mi fiiti . i
it was not uncommon to sea prairie chickens
in flocks numbering hundreds, whilehow it is
a rare sight to see mora than fifteen or twenty
together. Bonn attribute their disappearance
to severe winters that have killed them off,
and this added to the nuraber'that are annu
ally killed by sportsmen, may account for the
comparatively few that are now to be found.
This country was formerly oovered by tall
grass, which afforded shelter, and hiding
places for these birds, where they might se
cure themselves from their natural enemies,
the hawks, and now this protection is re
moved, which may to a great extent account
for their disappearance. Then, again, the
Indians who formerly occupied and hunted
this country did not devote much time to the
hunting of game of this class, and of course
the birds grew and prospered in large num
bers. The fine flavor and delicate texture of
the flesh of the prairie chioken causes it to be
much sought after by the sportsmen, and
many are killed in the grain fields at this
season. It seems that these birds have not
the cunning of the grouse or pheasant, and do
not avoid their enemies a the latter do. W
predict that in a few year this beautiful
game bird will rarely be seen in this part of
the State. PrinevUU Kevt.
The farmers around Sprague, W. T,, are
well pleased with the result of the season.
The long continued dry weather and the yield
of 'the crops, when all circumstances are
taken into consideration have only confirmed
their faith in the productiveness of the coun
try Wheat has turned out well, and potatoes
and all kinds of vegetables have far exceeded
the expectation of any one.
