The Future or the Galloway.
The secretary of tr e Galloway Society of
Scotland, recently expressed his belief in the
ffuture of the Galloway cattle as follows:
"There were strong indications that a great
demand for them would rise up in Cauada and
the United States, as more Galloways had
fwfceen sent out during the last few months than
for many years previously, and the American
people were bpginning ti appreciate the mer-
lits of the breed f.ir all their purposes. Breed
fers of Gallowiys knew that their merits for
the purposes of American people were very
high. The polled Angus was a mauificent
(breed for particular circumstances; but theirs
was not a breed possessing so many recom
mendations to American breeders as the Gal
loways. Tl.cre was no breed of polled cattle
in Britain so impressive and influential as the
Galloways in crossing with horned cattle,
sjvith tho view of getting quit of the horns.
SHe ventured to affirm that, where a pure, well
Ibred Gallow ay bull was put to cows of any
horned breed, the produco in 99 cases out of
every 100 would be polled; and he would
(leave those in a position to judce to say
iwhether there were any other polled breeds of
frwhicli the amo could bo said. Then there
Was their'har ly cliaract r, which was a great
Jpoint in their favor. The'c was no brreil ex
fcept perhaps tho West Utgli and, no peculiar-
fly fitted for exposure to the extremes of heat
jknd cold experienced in many parts of the
(western states, w Iito a large number of cat-
File had to lie out at .11 sei cm."

horns are coW and the nose is moist, a quart

should be freely ruoueu a' out t e roots oi me

either case, warm gruels of lineed or bran
should be given, with a teaspoonf ul of ginger
and the animal should be well nursed. A
tarry stick should be stirred in the drinking
.water, or if it is hot taken in this way a little
star should be rubbed on the tongue every

lerlno Sheep on Wheat Land a New Diet for
Lamb.
Mr. S. W. Jewett, of Vermont, gives an
idea of the wonderful improvement made in
American Meeino sheep. He aayi: "I de
aire to announce the arrival of two rams and
Are ewes from Mr. Gilbert's fine Book at Vid-
KJevitle,'3?eine-et-Di8c, Tranos. They are very
fine sheep and worthy of patronage, yet I do
not see that the French breeders have made
ny marked improvement since the impor
tations from the same sources thirty years
ago. In the meantime the shepherds of
Vermont have in several rrspects doubled the
Joe of their breeding animals."
; Pasturing wheat land is not common, but
j Mr. John Rosser says that as soon as his
heat is an inch high he tarns in his sheep,
changing them every two weeks and keeps
them there all winter. They come off n the
spring quits fat. He pastures 375 head on
ilty-fiva acres, and they cannot feed it down.
sje believes that the treading of the wheat is
t benefit, to say nothing of the evenly -spread
propping. The yild ( from twenty-five to
ferty bushels of whea) per acre. He claims
attbe first growth of wheat dies off anyhow
fad the sheep do not rob the plant. Not only
eVoes he obtain a good crop of wheat, bat the
profits from the sheep are co small items,
Vsihile the land is benefited instead of injured.

J?,Tht Tidingt says; L.( B. Applegate, of
J 8 wan Lake, informs us, that many of the
cattle roen'of Klamath county are vaccinating
(their calves with garlic ss a preventive of
(blackleg. (The de lsot new one, as the
ne preventive hat Leen need for many years
in European countries. An incision is made
in the skin and flesh of th calf, usually about
the shoulder, and a small piece of garlic is
insorted, after which the skin is sowed to
gether. SiVLral cahes which have Leeo vac
cinated in Klamath county have had the
blackleg and have recovered from it, which is
strong evidence of the efficacy of vaccination,
fur the disease ha been invariably fatal, so
far as we have heard, among calves not vac
cinated. Tho Applegate and Colohan bands
have been vaccinated, and have been free
from the disease sinca, with the exception of
the calves aboe mentioned as being attacked,
but recovering. Three or four calves in the
Applegate band were missed in the vaccina
tion, however, aud they have since died of
tho disease. This if still further in favor of
vaccination, showing that the band has been
exposed since thns treated.
Hoes and Beer, Our Heat Supply.
The Agricultural Department at Washing
ton reports the shnrtiga of hogs in tho great
est bog producing States as follow:: In Ken
tucky the shortage, as compared with but
year is 25 per cent; Ohio and Indiana, 25;
Illinois 24; Iowa 20; Missouri 30; Kansas 5;
alio a small decrease iu the Southern and
Middle States. As the supply of hog pro
ducts will haves gr-at influence on the future
price of beef; the reported scarcity of hogs
would indicate high prices for all kinds of
meat for the next twelve months. Unfortu
nately for Texas, her beef supply for 1883
will bo even shorter than the present shortage
of hogs in the great pork State Ohio, and if
other grass States aro much better off, they
have their cattle hidden, so that buyers have
not been able te find them. As to how soon
the present shortness in our mean supply can
be overcome depends on too n.any contin-
gences to venture a guess, but we will have
to increase our mi-at products very rapidly to
keep pace with the growing population, and
at the present rate of increase of population
in the United States we will have to double
our meat supply by 1890 in order to allow
each inhabitant their present .allowance.

Water for Sheep.
How many farmers totally neulect provid
ing water for their flocks, except in very hot
rummers, when grass and everything besides
is burnt up? But there can scarcely be a
doubt that pure, fresh water ought to be
always within access of a flock of shrep,
whether they are thought to want it or not.
The most experienced and observant of shep
herds cannot always tell when this ought to
furnished, for some animals may be in a con
dition to require it and others not, The only
safo rule to follow, therefore, is nover to allow
the deprivation to be experienced by not pro
viding water, so as to be w ithin ready access
at all times. This is what Mr. Robert Rus
sell, the successful breeder of sheep in Kent,
does one invariable rule which he follows,
both in summer and winter, being never to
allow any animal on his farm to go a single
day throughout the year without ready access
to two things pure fresh water aud salt.

-For Sheep Owners.
We offer our wool growing friends the fol
lowing list of prices of wool reported at Cape
Colony, September 22, 1SS2:

If the wool of Austrailia is worth at Port
Elizabeth or Port Philip the prices above
named, and it is worth but 2 cents per pound
to deliver it in Boston or New York, we ask
what chance there is for American wool grow
ers to make a living with the tariff removed
so as to allow wool, which compares in condi
tion to Eastern Oregoa wool, to be placed in
American markets at 14 cents per p-und,
(freight paid.) Read over the list of prices
above and see superior, light long greasy wool
is worth there 14 cents, add 2 cents for freight
and 16 cents is the price for this best quality
ot wool in the grease, in Boston or Newjfork.
Superior fleece in the grease, 14 cents, freight
added. Ordinary, which is about our average,
three-quarter bred merino wool, can be laid
down In Boston at 12 cent pr pnand. Now,
"don't goo. forget it," if Boston and New
York merchants can cet their stock for such
prices with free trade, which a class of men
of both parties are bragging they will now
force upon the country, we ask where are
Eastern Oregon wool men to get any profit
after paying the present price of 0 cents per
pound to get their wool to Eastern markets,
and then it is to come in competion with the
prices we have above named. If Eastern
Oregon wool growers want to kill the wool
interest, let them vote for free wool, with
transportation on one side of them and the
convict grown wool of Australia and the Cape
of Good Hope on the other, the prospect
would be slim for wool growers.
The Demand For Mohair.
During a recent walk through the large.t
woolen mill in the neighborhood of Philadel
phia, the writer wai surprised to find a large
pile of bales filled witn mohair. Upon inqui
ry, the fact was elicited that already consid
erable machinery is running upon fabrics com
posed of mohair, the majority of which is im
ported. This fact is especially interesting to
those who have heard the absence of a market
or mohair quoted as si argument sgtlntt this
profitable culture of Aurora goats in the Uni
ted States. Thit hair, though going into sev
eral other fabrics, is principally employed in
the manufacture of plushes, for coveting the
seats of railroad cars an industry juif now
I attempted ill this country. The proprietor
af the mill above referred to admitted the su
periority of the American mohair, nd empha
cized his conclusions by comparing samples of
foreign aud domestic product. With a fair
market for their fleeces as reliable as that i'f
wool within ready reach, there seems no rea
son why the culture of Angora goats should
not take its place beside that of the hitherto
more popular and profitable farm animals. In
fact, in many localities goats can be handled
without at a 1 interfering with other stock
as they prefer those hilly aud arid localities
inaccessible to most other animals. Breed

A Dairy Cow
A dairy cow never reaches perfection in her
line until she has arrived at maturity; and she
must reach this period of her life with all her
faculties unimpaired if we expect her to be
as good a cow as nature Intended her to be.
She differs in this respect from the best beef
growing animals, which are mature, as it
were from the start, and whose organizations,
instead of being impaired lor their business by
generations-of high, early feeding, are rather
more and more adapted to it. We all know
that the eldest and best family f Short-hirns
are not remarkable for constitutional vigor
and elasticity. They have not great imrcular
strength, are not nervous and powerful in
their movements and and are deficient in the
procreative faculties.
A good dairy cow should possets ihe ap
pearance af strength and firmness without
being tc o compaet, and she should possess no
palpably weak point if she is expected to en
dure well in the work of the dairy. She
should not be selected for a breeder unless
she possesses as an inheritance that shape
which indicates strung vitality, and that qual
ity that udicates aitive secretory functions.
In her well-shaped, strong head, wide muzzle,
mild eye, broad forehead, small, waxy horn,
slender neck, straight and slender fore leg,
sharp chine, loose shoulder, broad ribs, open
jointed back bone, mellow skin, preponderat
ing hind quarters, long hind foot and broad
fore foot, ample carcass, well shaped udder,
large superficial veins, soft hair, she should
indicate a capacity for converting food into
milk, as distinguished from that cow whose
rounder and fuller form and heavier bone and
smoother joint", and narrow head and heavier
auarters show an especial aptitude to take on
esh. Ex.
"La Bassa-Cour," the acknowledged live
stock journal of France, in a recent number,
contained the following interesting account of
the Manchamps" among the most prized fine
wool sheep of that country. "The fine ovine
breed'of Manchamps, remarkable for tho long
silky wool of its subjects, is one of the tri
umphs of French breeding. This variety was
obtained from a single puny ill Bhaped male
sheep. When this animal wat examined, it
was found that, though badly sliapad, it had
excellent wool smooth, long anl f-ilky as
beast could desire. The farmer who owned
the creature, being a master of his ait, under
stood the importhnco of tho occasion, and
knew that his fortune as made if only the
lamb lived and was used to tho best advan
tage. The name of this farmerwas M. Graux
The problem was how to borrow his useful
qualities to transmit them to the entire flock,
and make, the exception which he presented
the rule and the char icteristic of a new bree 1,
When tho animal had attained a suitable age,
he was employed in breeding. Those of his
i flfcpring which resembled him the ino-it were
sot apart for stock rams. This course was re
peated with the subjects of the fecond gener"
atiun. Among the first lambs there were two
individuals with silky hair; at the second tri
al five subjects were obtained. In 1833 there
we-o rams with silky hair to supply the flock
ami in a short timu to uumlcrs had so iu-ciea-ed
that their owucrs were able to take
them into the market. The Manchamp breed
was created."
Sheep Farming.
Dairy farming is more difficult and labori
ous than sheep farming. Sheep culture has
many advantages over cattle-raising, as also
over dairying. There is a necessity of sheep
husbandry for meat production. The rapid
increase of population, the scarcity and in
creasing price of beef, tb-) inferiority of pork
in healthfuluess and nutrition, tend to the
increase of mutton-eating. And it is not the
results in the economy of meat and wool
alone, we may add, but from an economical
standpoint in feeding the soil no factor in its
wealth occupies a more promiuent position
than sheep. This has been tested and will
be found to be most valuable in its applica
tion to all the economise of farm establishment
and development.
Cheshire Swine.
Of all the breeds of white swine there are
none that we esteem more highly than the
Cheshire. They are undoubtedly descended
mainly from the Yorkshire, and in all their
points resemble the very best modern Berk
shire very closely in every respect, except in
color. Tbey are pure white, with a skin that
has a beautiful pinkish tint, that gives them
an exceedingly attractive appearance when
dressed. They mature early, fatt;n readily,
and grow to a good size, but in common with
all white swine are rather more subject to
skin diseases than black ones. Tbey are very
hardy, however, and withstand great ex
tremes of cold as well as any breed of which
we have any knowledge. Breeder Oaztlle,
EUKlns a Bull.
If you take the dividing wall or teptum of a
ball's nose between the thumb and forefinger,
you find that the upper part, well forward, is
thin, hard, and apparently bloodless, or near
ly so, st least there is room for blood vessels
and nerves. This is the point to pierce, and
many bulls will stand still and submit to the
piercing with a proper instrument and the in
sertion of the ring without making much trou
Me; but it is safot to bind the head of the
animal, by the horns, to a strong honionUl
beam, for then you can work with greater care
and leas nervousness. Pinching the spot be
numbs it, so that the operation t as painless
as it is simple. Tke "Tiochar"is very con

The Canninr Interests.
This new enterprise nas been alluded to on
several previous occasions; however its utility
is so obvious, and the encouragement of its
davelopement so essential on the part of the
people that we feel it a warranted duty to keep
the matter befoie our readers. The building,
consisting of a store, a salesroom and a can
ning room, is 20x100 feet, which is nearly
completed except the tiuMilng. The estab
I V.iment is to have in connection with its can
n ng apparatuses an Acme fruit dryer, the ma
tirial for which is now at the place where the
furnace is to be constructed. Mr. Roberts in
forms us he has secured a boiler antl has ar
ranged for all other appliances Used in mod
ern canning; he has also engaged the service
of an old experienced canner as foreman of the
work. The capacity of the cannery will be,
to begin with, three thousand cans daily, and
the dryer will consume daily three thousand
pounds of green fruit. It is the intention of
the proprietor to can all kinds of vegetables as
well as fruits, thus enabling the fanners and
general vegetable and fruit growers to obtain
something for their vast surplus of products.
Eutern Washington has few rivals in the pro
duction of vegetables. The extent of its ce
real crops is already known, as there has been
a market established; but the magnitude of
the products proposed to be utilized by can
ning and drying is not generally known. Tl e
enterpiise n progress will be pushed forward
rca ly for operations by tho next crop. The
expediency of canning our fruit and vegeta
bles at home will be thoroughly tested, as
there are solid men who propose to have a can
ning industry in this city if it be possible.
Thrre can be little doubt that this enterprise
will be profitable to the proprietor and an im
portant element in our industries. In con
unction with this description of the cannery
It would be well to speak of the fruit mostly
used by canneries. Peaches are the back
bone of the canners stock, and the supply on
this coast has never been equal to the demand.
In regard to varieties, there are so many and
they are known by so many different names
that it is hardly woith while to here enumer
ate them. Of freestones the early and late
Crawfords stand at the head. Nothing else
so fully meets the general den.and. Among
clingstones the kinds known is the Lemon and
Orange are of fine clean flesh and are drsira
b'e. In peaches nil kinds that are dark col
ored around tho pits aro to be avoided, as this
color is imparted in the "processing" to tho
syrvp and stains and muddles the fruit, im
pairing its commercial value. Of pears the
liar t let t is tho only one fit for canners' use tho
only one that will remain white whilo through
processing. Of cherries the white varieties
are far pr ferable o-i account of their liny ap
pearance. The favorites are tho Governor
Woods and the Nap ileo.i lligoroau, tho lattoi
being known in s me localities as tho lloyal
Anne. Among plums the fivorites aro Yel
low Ega, Imperial, Washington and Golden
Drop. Dark plums cannot 1 e used. The
shipment of canned goods last year amounted
to 600,000 cases. If our farmers will raie the
proper varieties of fruit, this c in bo roado ono
of tho greatest industries ol Eastern Wash
ington. In tl is county and rdong tho Snake
river bottoms is the fruit growing region of
tho Northwest, and the supply of this great
country will have to cnnio fiom this region.
With the completion of the N. I' to lis-oula
another large non-fruit growing country will
bo opened to receive supplies from our rair
ko s. With proper attention to thu 1 ranch
of business Walla Wullacan control this trade
both with fnsh and canned goods. It is
an opportunity that this c untry cannot af
ford to let slip by. A small orchard of choice
fruits on every farm would yearly supply our
farmers with the cash to carry on their house
hold exp.'ns 8. Walla Walla Union.
The Orchard.
An orchard should be devoted to apple
growing. It should not be regarded as a hay
field. Apples pay well enough if the trees are
cared for, so as to allow- them the sole use of
the ground they occupy. A Maine corres
pondent of the Home Farmer remarks that
" the first and most essential object to be
kept in view is to have a supply of plant food
available si! the time for the trees according
to their need, a heavily-bearing tree needing
more for that season than one not bearing.
Singularly enough, many farmers seem to
think that if a tree blossoms well or is loaded
with the embryo apples, it is flourishing so
well that it needs no looking after. On the
same ground it may lie argued that a boy who
is growing very tall is doing so well that he
needs little or no food, when the exact oppo
site is the case. Tho tree that promises well
should of all others be helped, while the tree
that promises little and bears less might prove
a profitable tree if fed and caeed for. The
writer referred to says ;
"Any one acquainted with the habits of his
trees can generally judge when one is likely to
bear much, and if, in cultivated land, an ex
tra amount of manure is worked in within
reaoh of the roots early in the spring or the
fall before, the fruit will be better and the
tree will be more healthy and come out
stronger next spring after bearing; wherear,
if they are not so served they are so injured
frequently as to be worthless ever after.
After all that has or can be said in relation to
the special treatment of trees for diseases snd
enemies, the best remedy and preventive
above all others is to keep tLe tree in a good
condition by supplying a sufficient quantity of
available plant food for them, not once in a
while, but all the time, for cue fruitful source
ot disease is alternate liberal feed and itarva
tiou. Fool is not available if plated and im
mediately snatched away by something else."
Ou the subject ot gra-s in an orchard, he
says : "I look upon gras as a troublesome
pest in an orchard, aud when I do not wiih to
cultivate it I do not leed with grass or grain,
but let it stay out as long as possible. The leu
hay I get out of, and the more manure I get
into the orchard, tho better off I am finan
cially. I plow but a small portion of my or
chards, but depend almost wholly upon ma
nure, brakes and wc-da from pasture", etc.,
for what trees I have in my fields, and for
those in the pastures that are quite young.

Fruit Tree Insects.
II. M. Enule, of Marietta, Pennsylvania,
has fount the following rcnedies useful in
destrying or repelling some of the insects that
infest fruit. The peach grub is exelnded from
the trees by spreading on the birk near the
roots a mixture of fresh cow manure mixed
with lime. Bark lice on raspberry canes are
effectually destroyed by a mixture of lime
antl sulphur, applied early in spring. Borers
in apple trees are to be followed with wire,
and they are excluded with a heavy coating of
lime wash. Peach grubs, after they obtain
possession, are taken out by following them
iu their burrows with a pointed ki.ife. Cm
culios are destroyed by jarring, but most
persons neglect it, or do not pciform it thor
oughly. Tho practice of hanging corncobs
saturated with gas-tar in the tree has proved
a failure. Country Gentleman.
