KLICKITAT COUNTY.
We take the following from the Goldendale
Gazette of November 9th. We are under obli
gations to Governor Newell for some Import
ant corrections In the same :
Exfcctive Chambers, Qlympia, Nov. 1832
Editor Ga7ettk. Dear Sir: I have ap
propriated my first leisure hour since the re
ceiptof your polito requist to write to you,
for publication, a stitementof my impressions
concerning Klickitat county, to o mplj
briefly with the suggestion. My general im
pression was very diffeient, after seeing what
I beheld iu going to, and returning from, an 1
whilst 1 was present at your fair, from that
which I had previously entertained. In com
mon with other people I knew that the val
ley of tho Klickitat was fertile and produc
tive, but I did not know thai so large a por
tion of your county, outside of the valley,
although not so de-irahle as to surface, being
moro hilly and mountainous, was (rjually well
adapted to the production of ordinary farm
crops, and is in some resp-cts superior, es
pecially iu raining fruits and vegetables upon
the southern exposures of tho hills, a charac
teristic that gives to France, Italy, Sicily
and iwit7trlauil their chief advantage in sucii
productions. Of tho four thousand siUan
miles which jour c .uuty continue, not oui
fourth is incapable of highly profitable culti
vadon, if my enquiries were proper!)
answered. Your valley and niountilii lands
are similar to t os of tlio Walla Walla and
I'almiso, and aio in no respect inferior to
tho o famed rigions. No one who has traveled
thlough both can fall to resell such couclu
sioim. Your county has greit advantiges in
proximity to Portland and the towns indciti s
of thu Sound for the disposal of crop, and in
tho gran 1 river frontage of one hundred and
twenty-five miles on one of the largo rivers of
the world. Manv of your hills and much of
your valleys aro baneu for want only of plow
ing and Becding; the soil is deep every while,
so far as my observation extended, a vaitiug
tho intelligent quickening farmers' aid. There
is no disp sition to wash and gulley as exists
in mountain regions generally, but at tho ex
treme summit, al ug tho sides and in the
ravines thero seemed to be about the same
degree of fe'tility and verdure. Hero and
there a will-conditioned ranch, with suitable
residences, outbuildings and fences, tlirifr
orchaids, handsome, woll proportioned fields
of grass anil yearly grain stubble and ari d
livestock, poultiyaud boes, gio ample as
surance of tho capabilities of Klickit it county.
If any further verification my etunato !s
reduircd it may bo found in your annual fair,
which was lemaikahlu foi thu variety, extent
and exeellui co of its exhibitions; wheat of
many kinds, oits of large and heavy growth,
arley and Indian corn well grown and ptr-
lectly matured, gave evidence of griin-pro-duciug
capacity, all of which, I was informed,
grew equally well and with usual luxuriance
over the entire county. Vegetibles were nf
fine size, symmetry aud flavor. Potatoes.
which, next to bread, seem necessary for the
suste .auce of mankind, were of enormous
growth, so also were the sugar aud table
beets, turnip', carrots, cabbages, cellery,
pumpkins, squashes, beans, peas aud espe
ci illy onions gi own from the seed, were re
mark iblo for size and weight. The display of
Iruits was extraordinary good, many varieties
of the choicest apples, from the White Crab
to tho Gloria Mundi, smooth, free from im
perfections, by insect stings or otherwise,
lieautifully proportioned ud shaded with
vaiiud hues, made a more attractive exhibi
tiou. IVars, especially the Bartlett, were
p rfect in shape, color, thinness of skin, fra
grant, spicy, juicy and crisp; they could not
be excelled. I never Baw grapes grown out
side of a hot-house more perfect iu appearance
and flavor, huge bunches of tho Muscat, the
rasin grapes, tho Black Hamburg and other
most beautiful and, to me, rare crapes
adorned the tables and were conceded to be
unsurpassable. Fruits having smooth skin
and pits there, as everywhere else in Wash
ington, were fair to behold and largo and lus
cious to tho taste. Cherries, prunes, plums,
apricots and nectarines were preservid iu
alcohol, the season being too far advanced for
tho Iruit. Dried prunes were perfectly cured,
fleshy and moist, with a proper admixture of
saccharine and acid snbstauces; they seemed
equd to any of foreign growth and premuta
tion, and command at San Francisco an ad
vanced prico ov er all others. Good peaches,
watermelons and iiiuskineloiis, completed this
di-play. Upon a single table, embracing all
thu kinds enumerated were fruits grown upon
a Hillside, without hot-bed, glass or irngition,
by one exhibitor, from laud which, three) ears
ago had never been broken up or planted. A
sufficiency of live stock was present to do
nioustrate, at least, the practicability of rais
ing successfully all domestic animals and
poultry required for the use of mankind in
this ngion, Norman blooded aud stoek
hoi sea, Alderuey, llolstein and other families
of cattle, Southdown and Cotswold sheep
naving mil ana uue fleeces, swine, lierskshire,
Maee and Poland, of unuaually good appe tr
ance aud condition, gave great interest to the
exhibition. A small representation of choice
butter, cheese and honey gave earnest of the
succces to be achieved in these most essential
departments of Industry. I was especially
pleaaed to observe some well made carriages
and farm wagons and agricultural implements
which were manufactured entirely at Golden,
dale, and were in no respect inferior to any
which were seen in the Territory. I regret
that I had do opportunity to visit the two
large Souring mill, at your town, but having
viaminid the fl .ur aud partaken of the bread,
aud furthermore havtug ground many a grist,
heu a boy at my father's null, am prepared
to promise that you can raise wheat and nun
ufaeture flour which will not be surpassed by
the beat produces else here. I noticed at the
foot hills and at other placer an abursiant
growth of fir timber, and learned that eight
mile to tha north was an extei sive saw-raill,
the wooden building ma'erial used at The. imr some of the gluten changes its form to al

velocity, a distance of ten or twelve miles,
falling upon scows at the river shore, co that
all of )our timber can be utilized. Tho recnt
discovery of limestone is a most important
event for your prosperity; the sample barrel
which I examined was white, brittle, free from
core, with a ringing sound. When it is con
si Icrcd that at this time lime c immands $5 a
barrel at The Dalles, and that v our supply
promises tebe inexhaustable, its value will bo
readily utiderstool anil appreciated. Much of
your future prosperity will come frem the
proximity of the Columbia which waters ) our
southern bjnler for more than one hundred
miles. As the Hudson, the Delaware, the
Ohio, the Missouri and the Mississippi bear
nlatic n to the greatness of tho lands which
they traverse, so will the Columbia bring
w.alth to you and all others who enjoy its
shores, in the advantages which attach to its
navigation and in valuable salmon fisheries.

in the adjoining county of Clarke, and I doubt
not tli.it similar deposits are to be found iu
Klitkilar, aud gold, silver and other precious
metals are well known to bo enumerated with
youi resources. The impression which has
been cicated that tho late frosts of the spring
and early frosts of autumn preclude the per
fect growth of your grains, fruits and vegeta
bles is by no means well founded. Frosts bite
early at times in all temperate altitudes, and
I wi 1 venture the assertion that no region of
thu tame latitude 13 so free from this evil as
is tlio entire t-nitory of Washington. High
Minds and dust aro counted objections which
may bo disagreeable, but the wiuds briugpure
healthful condition of tho atmosphere and the
dust scatters pulverized fertilizing material
over the fields. Population has been diverted
hum your county by this aud o her evils re
ported by interested people who desire 1 the
immigration to drift further eastward, and by
others who wanted to monopolize tho natural
pibturagu for their herds and bauds. Your
journal and your contemporary, the Seivinel,
are djing much to make known your re
sources and advantages, which cannot any
longer bo hidden from intelligent enquirers.
You must conclude, upon my appreciation of
your display at the exhibition and my detail
of your multitudinous advantages, that my
linpreision of Klickitat county is highly fa
vorable fro 11 every standpoint of observation
and conclusion. That portion of it which I
saw, and much of which I h ard, is similar to
the best portions of the Simcoe, the Yakima
valley and the better known counties of
Southeastern Washington, drained by the
Walla Walla, the Suake, Palouse and Spokan
rivers. My review would not be complote
wuhout a reference to your people, who
seemed conspicuous for the intelligence, en
terprise and thrift which characterizes the en
tire population of the Pacific Coast. The large
attendance at the Sunday school concert of
young men, which I had the pleasure to at
tend and by courtesy to address, indicates a
modem proclivity not usually found in new
countries, and which is creditable to your cit
izens. The absence ot licensed bars in your
couutry save one in a comparatively isolated
regi in is also a very favorable feature and
indication of publio sentiment which will in
duce many settlers to locate in your midst.
My friend, Mr. Pike, who kindly conveyed
ma to and from your village, pointed out to
mo upon an eminence a settlement of colo
nists from Finland, who, by their ii dustry
ai.d frugality, were prospering greatly and
educating others as to the value of high farm
ing upon small tiacts of land.
1 win venture nnaiiy 10 suggest to your
p ople the vv is lorn of preparing to raise fruits,
to which your county is so well adapted, and
of introducing cultivated grassis, alfalfa, inns
kite and clover, upon the plains and lulls
which are barren of vegetation by cxcessivo
grazinir, aud also of raisin? rye, flax and hops,
and using lime as a fertilizer of the soil. With
especial acknowledgements ot your personal
courtesy to me, as well as for my friend, Mr.
Sichel, the energetic aud obliging secretary of
your fair association, and my best wishes for
the prosperity of tho people of Klickitat
county, I am, Ysuri truly,

"Within the uluten layer lies thu starch,
constituting the mass of the kernel. The
starch consists of minute granules about .002
of an inch in diameter. The muciel around
which clustei these tiny granules some think
are gluten. This is certainly true of oats.
On the mingling nf the gluten with the starch
depends the value of wheat for making bread.
For besides tho protein, crude gluten con
tains sugar, gum and solublo albumen. The
decomposition of sugar in ferment ition pro
duces carbonic acid, which becomes entangled
in the tena cious gluten, expauds in the heat
of baking, and renders the loaf light and
spongy.
"In the center of the kernel, wheu the out
er layer turns into tho body and doubles
around forming an inner heirt hliaped section
lie tho phosphates of soda, lime and magnes a
which are the bone and biain making ele
ments of wheat. In the crease near the lar
gest end of tho kernel lies the germ, which
though rich in gluten, contains oily and dark
matter that injures the color and quality of
tho flour and should be removed. Over the
germ is a thin scale like pellicle, duly re
moved with tho thumb mil, reireali igjtho lit
tle germ containing cell beneath. .".Tho germ,
by slight pressure, may bo removed, leaving
the cell, which, however, is oated with oily
matter, which should also be kept out of the
II ur.
"At the other end of the kernel is a sort of
tin brush appendage, formed of numerom fil
aments of a slight salmon tine. Tnesa are
useful to the seed in the ground as absorbents
of moisture, bat in the flour impair both its
color and flavor, and should also be elimina
ted. This brush end and the crease, with the
wrinkled surface of tho grain, are grand dust
and dirt catchers, and a large amount of the
michinery of our mo leru mills is for the sol
purpose of jloansing tho grain from dirt, and
fieeing it of the bran, germ, brush aud oily
matter whUIi injures for capacity for making
white, spougy, and nutritious bread."
We heard a prominent phiciau say a few
days ago that he thought it was tho duly of
the proprietor of Ammen's Cough Syrup to
givo the formula of the medical faculty, so
that they could prescribe and use. it without
violating the rules of the profession, fo-, said
he, "somanyof mypatientspraiseittslheskies
and cases have come under my observation
where it has been remarkably beneficial, that
I know it must indeed be a wonderful discov
ery in medical science." This medicine is for
ale by respectable elrugists and dealers in
medicine everywhere.

During the vv ar I vv as In
jured in the stomach by a piece
of a shell, and have suliercd
from it ever since. About four
years ago it brought on paraly
sis, which kept me in bed six
months, and the best doctors
in the city said I could not
live. I suffered fearfully from
indigestion, and for over two

able to get up and go around
and am rapidly improving.
