WILLAMETTE FA.RMHR: PORTLAND, OREOON, APRIL l'J, 13 0c loui; ircli MRS. HARRIOT T. CLAIIKE, Editor. A GREAT MAN. That man is great, and he alnne, Who tones a greatness not his own, For neither praise or pelf J Content to know anil be unknown: Whole to himself. Strong Is that man, he only strong, To whose well ordered will belong, For service and delight, All powers that in the face of wrong Establish Right. And free is he, an 1 only he, Who from his tyrant passion free, By fortune undismayed, Hath power upon himself, to be By himself obeyed. If such a man there be, where'er Beneath the Bun and moon he fare, He cannot far amiss, Great Nature hath him in her care, Her cause is his. Who holds by everlasting law, Which neither chance nor change can flaw ; With whatsoever forces draw, The ages on. If such a man there be, where're Beneath the sun and moon he fare, He doth not fare alone, He goo h girt with cohorts, powers, The monarch of his manful hours, Whose mind's his throne. He ows no homage to the sun: There's nothing he need seek or shun; All thngs are by his right ; He is his own posterity ; Hi future in himself doth lie His sonl is his light, Lord of a lofty line is he, Lofty living, though he be, Ot lowly birth: though poor, He lacks not wealth or high degree In stato obscure. The merely great are all in all, No more than what the merely Bmall Esteem them. Man's opinion Neither conferrs or sees at all, Thin man's dominion. RAO CARPETS. The Home Circle has not said anything about rag carpets, but as spring cleaning is at hand, now is a good time to gather up and prepare ihe rags lying about. Thare is cer tainly great comfort in a good rag carpet, and economy in making one, instead ot buying one at the store. The rough use that comes to a carpet in a common room calls for some thing more stout than an ingrain carpeting. A well made rag carpet is good for five years' wear, saving a deal of scrubbing of floors, be sides giving an air of warmth and oomfort to a rjom, when care is taken in selecting a warp of good color, there can be a really handsome carp 3 1 made. The rags should be out with care, not having any cut bias if it can be helped. The finer the rags are cut'the lighter and nicer the carpet will be. If cut fine, a pound and a quarter will be enough for a yard, but our experience is that a heavier one wears best. Care must be taken in saw ing to confine the ends of the rags and leave no big lumps to' make the surface uneven. It is but little more trouble to clip off the ends where they are lapped over. Cotton rags are almost as desirable as woolen; the white cot ton, if colored with yellow and twisted with black or any dark color, will make a very pretty stripe. In sewing rags there will always be a quantity of all sorts of colors, which, if sewed into balls just as they come, will make a stripe of "hit or miss," which is quite the style now. A deal of artistic taste may be displaced in arranging the colors for even so homely an affair as a rag carpet. As we said before, if the warp be chosen of two or three shades ot some decided and bright colors, a really handsome carpet can be made, and at a price but a few cents above the cost of weaving. When one does not have much red, it will pay to buy a few yards of cheap red flannel, to give a few threads of stripe, so giving the carpet a more decided character. Every 'Id garment can be brought into use, even an old faded kitchen apron, if washed, will give some strips that will help to make a ball, and when woven in will be as good as anything. It Is good evening work to cut and 8 trip up the rags; this can be done at odd times and put away in bags till wanted; then there will come dajs when we feel ju.t like doing nothing else, finduig rest and recreation fn sewing a few balls. If one were to sit down and work right along at a carpet, one would get tir-'d of the sight of it; Tint by doing a lit tle at a time, the whole is accomplished without-missing the time. The little folks can do good help at this by a little encouragement. If one has bad the comfort of a good rag car pet they will never be without one. H. T. 0. 8PKIN0 CLEANING. Just at this time the house-wife begins to think of house cleaning. There are many who would like to know how to do this in a manner that would prove both econimical and at the fame time look pretty. In our mind there can be nothing prettier or neater than whitewashing. Even the trees look better if treated to a coat of whitewash,. They are also much benefitted by the coating and, taken altogether, a coat of whitewash is desirable and health giving. Wt. append a few choice recipes lor prepar ing whitewash and other points that we con sider are quite timely for this season of the year : For a gray tint, lamp-black first mixed with strong soarsuds was stirred into the lime after being s'aked and salted ; to give the ray a warm tint, some dry red paiut was I'irred in with the black ; for a red wall, only red paint w.s mixid aith the lime wash ; a very little vermillioa will give a fine color. The ceilings should be wathtd in white, but if the aides are washed in color, the improvement will be found to he con ulerable. Don't use blue paint in the whitewash, unless you wish to spoil your room Ked 1 r gray U most satis factory ; yellow or green 11 better than blue. Care should be taken 111 putting on the wash not to smear the ceiling. We find in a German paper a formula for a wash which can be applied to lime walls and afterwards become waterproof so as to bear washing. Munich mixes together the powder from three parts silicious rock (quartz), three parts broken marble and sandstone, also two parts of burned porcelain clay, with two parts freshly slaked lime, still warm. In tnis way a wash is made which forms a silicate if often wetted, and becomes after a time almost like stone. The four constituents mixed together give the ground color to which any pigment that can be used with lime can be added. II is applied quite thickly to the nail or other surface, let dry one day, and the next day frequently covered with water, which makes it waterproof. This wash can be cleansed with water without losing any of its color; 00 the contrary, each time it gets harder, so that it can be even brushed, while its porosity makes it look soft The wash or calcimino can re used for ordinary purposes aa well as for the finest painting. A so-called frtsco surface can be prepared with it in the dry way. Brief Suggestions. Ordinary glue can be dissolved in ascetic acid or strong vinegar without heating, and makes an excellent glue, almost as good as when heated. Keep tightly corked to prevent evaporation. A simple and easy way to ornament a com mon pillow case for the baby's pillow is to feather-stitch it all around with scarlet marking-cotton. Choose the cotton which is warranted not to fade. A very appetizing Salad is made by chop ping coarsely some cold boiled potatoes; then s ason well with salt, pepper and mustard; line a salad dish with fresh lettuce, then put in a lavor of potatoes; on the top put a later o cold boiled beets, also chopped and spasmed, garnish the dish liberally with lettuce, and just before sending it to the table add vinegar plain, or with ordinary salad dressing. The bottom of white holland curtains may be rendered very handsome by imerting squares of antique lace; for a shade nf the ordinary with three squares are sufficient; leave a .space between each of the same width as the square; nf course these must be put in very neatly and with great car-) to bo effective. Below the hem at the bottom put an edge of the antique lace that matches the squares. Macaroni stewed helps to vary the bill of fare till vegetables are within the reach of th! woman with the moderate purse. Boil about two ounces of macaroni in water till it is tender, then drain off all the water and aid a good sized lump of butter; mix a tablespoonful of flour with half a cupful of b.-ef stock; add a little cream, salt and pepper to suit the taste; let this all boil till the gravy is thick enough; send to the table hot. For a home-made disinfectant dissolve a bushel of salt in a barrel ot water, and with the salt water slack a barrel of lime, which snoul 1 be wet enough to form a kind of paste. For the purpose of a disinfectant this homo made chloride of lime is nearly as good as that purchased at the shops. Use it freely about sinks, cellars, gutters and out-houses, and in this way prevent sickness, suffering and expense. Baked codfish is an excellent breakfast dish. Cut the fish in small pieces and let it oak all night in cold water; in the morning slice it Into shreds, and let It simmer on the stove until it is tender; then draw the water, and to one-third mashed potato put two thirds fish; stir it so that tne potato will be evenly distributed. Bake until it is a rich brown on the top; serve with a sauce of drawn butter, in which cut two hard-boiled eggs- The following is an excellent recipe for making an old-fashioned plum pudding : Three quarts of milk, four eggs well beaten, eight crackers pounded fine; sweeten with sugar to taste, one-half pound raisin", aim inered in a very little water till soft; one small nutmeg, a little salt; bake threehoun in a molerate oven. Sauce; One cup of suear. one-fourth pound butter beateP to' a cream, thiee teaspoons flour mixed with a lit tle water; add two cups hot water just betore serviug. An exchange gives the following simple recipe for washing clothes. It saves much labor and is easily prepared and kept: One ball of potash, and half-once carbonate of am monia, one-half ounce sal's of tartar; dissolve in one gallon of wattr; keep in crock. Direc tions for use: S6ak clothes over night; put into boiler the pails of water and one cup of fluid; shave in also one-half bar of soap; put in the clothes, cleanest first, and let them boil half an hour; stir them frequently; take out into a tub of warm water, rub soiled park if necessary; put through a rinsing water and then through the blue. When you get chilly all over and away into your bones, and begin to snuffle and almost struggle for your breath, just begin in time, nnd your tribulation need not last very long. Get some powdered borax and snuff the dry piwder up your nostrils. Get your camphor bottle and snuff it frequently; pour some on your handkerchief and wipe your nose with it whenever needed. Your nose will not yet sore, and you will wonder what has become of our cold. Begin this treatment in the forenoon, and keep on at intervals until you no to bed, and you will sleep as well as you ever did. Bow to Knit Oak Leaf Edging. Cast on 10 stitihes; k. across plain.

With twelie, whlto eggs In a downy ntst, Tha old hen sets in a box in the shed ; And the children yestereay stood and guess'd Of the hopes that hid in her speckUd breast Of the. dreams that danced tluough her red crowned head "She thinks," said the labor hating Ned, "Of a land where the weasles are all asleap, Where the hawks are blind, and dogs are dead, Where are heaps of corn as high as the shed, And plenty of earth worms for her to eat." "She remembers the county fair says," Bess. "And the prize she took at Hampton town," "No, no, she don't," cried James the Less, "She dreams of her own little duck, I guess; She's wond'ring yet why they didn't drown." And what say you, little curly pate ? I see a thought in your merry eye. "She finks," says the bright eyed bahy Kate, As she lifts the latch ef the garden gate, "Dere'll bo tickens to skatch for by -an'-by." Three cheers for the wisdom of three year old; Who told you the secret, little pet. That love is better than ease or gold That labor for lovn pays a thousand fold? "Oo fink It ooself !" Well don't forget. Tin Argoty. OUR LETTER BOX. The first letter in hand this week is from Annie, who says she wrote to the Circle once before but did not see it in priut. I am quite sure it must have been in the paper, but am glad she wrote again and wish that when mistakes occur each one will write and tell of any failure in this way. Annie puts her n me on the temperance roll; if every ono of our young folks who have put their names do'vn are true to their promises, we shall see the good (fleets of it in the next ten years. Wo hope each ono will remember it is very dishonorable to promise a thing and then fail to keep that pit dge; it is telling a falsehood one who tells a lie is a very contemptible person and will soon lose the respect of every one who knows them. It is quite as bad to tell untruths as to steal, and any one who would do the one thing will do the other. It is so good to hear a young person spoken of os one whose word is to be believed; to hear it said, "well, if he says so it is true, for he never tells a falsehood." This is the class of boys that make the influential men of our country. Sometimes it takes a great deal of courage to speak up and tell the truth; this would be moral courage. There is another kind of courage, a physical courage, when one would not be afraid in a battle or afraid to stand up for personal rights, but it is harder to keep up moral courage than to have physical o-urage, for one might have courage to fight while the passions were excited, when moral courage needs calmness and great reso lution. Leonora wants to be on the roll too. Girls can havo just as much influence In this matter as boys. They can influence their brothers and when grown up in years after, can train up their own boys and girls in strict temper ance principles. Aunt Hetty would be vo-y glad to know Leonora, as well as all of those who write, for she loves all the young folkes and wants to see them grow up honorable, brave and good. Etta is welcome again and can see improve ment in every letter. We don't know what has become of Katie 8. We hope she will write again before long. Bessie has sent a very nice letter for a girl only six years old. She must keep on and try each time to Bee how much better she can do. Try and practice writing in a copy book; her father will set her copies any time. Betsie's pets must not take all of her time. Maud does not give her full name and wo ought not to print it without, but as it is a good letter we will excuse her this time, be lieving she did not know the rule. Centebviixe, Or., March 6, 1883.

I see a number of letters each week, until this and I was looking at the paper to-night and didn't seo any letters, and jut thought I would write ono I have been going to school this winter and have learned more than I cer did at a three months school before. Wo are having a real nice spring so. We arc haviug some rain a1, present. Our spring term of school started the 2Gth of March. We are going to havo a new school house in our little town before long There has been a great deal of sickness around hero this winter; the folkes have been having scarlet fever; I have just got over having it. 1 got a letter from one of my schoolmates, she is now at Alkali, and shu says there is two or three cases of smallpox there and also several cases of measles. Well as this is my first letter I will not write a very long one this time, so I will close with best wishes, Madd. "Give the Boys a Chance " Portland, March 30, 18S.r). Editor Willamette Farmer: In your issuo of the 16th inst I notice a re sponse to my articles unler this heading. Although your correspondent criticizes my method rather sharply, I shall not quarrol with him. He seems to think those "articles calculated to make wrong impressions on the minds ot the young and mislead them." If such were the general verdict, I should very much regret having written them. H'J says, "Solomon thought it best to train up a child in the way ho should go;" just as though I was advocating a different principle, while the fact is I agree with "wise man" on this point. Because I have, turned my boy loose on the ranch on a wild cayuse, Mr. Misner jumps at the conclusion that It is "on the go-and-Jo as-you pleaso principle," and perhaps in imagination he pictures the boy a dare devil, riding rough-shod over everybody and everything he comes in contact with. Mr. Misner says, "I hold that boys should be under some proper restraint by the parents and bo taught a proper use of property." So do I; no room for controversy on this point. Again, "simply because a boy has a few tools affords no reason why he should be permitted to do real mischief by driving nails in the chopping block or sawing off the hoe handle." V ery true, Mr. Misner, we agree again. Let me ask you a question; when you gave your boy his first hatchet and he cut off the kit ten's tail, why did vou permit it ? You re ply, perhaps, "the tail was off before I knew must be doing something and they do many unaccountable things, innocently ton, without I,. wuau du uicLiamv. . , 1111 trii art, u:i.,v.-. any tnnught ot harm or wrong; but the kit ten suffers and the hoe handle is gone. Now, what did you d 1 to mend this matter? From your stvlo of reasoning I shall infer that vou "put a flea in his ear" and sent him howling o his niother, and, p rhips, hid hi hatchet 'or a time as an additional punishment; but 4 id that restore the kitten's tall ? Hail you ien aa wise as Solnmoi vou would have taken the child upon your knee, talked to film affectionately, and showed him how he ha 1 hurt the poor kitty and how it suffered. It gave you an opportunity of teaching him a lesson that he would never forget, and no langer of a similar offence. I have suffered he loss of a hoe handle and choppint! block but once; that once iravo the onnortumtv for a practical lesson which insured me from a repetition of similar losses and I have never felt that the wagon t mgun or plow beam was in any danger. Again I quote Mr. Misner : "Boys should bo taught to respect the riirhts ami property of others; this grand principle they should carry nut all through life." Here again we agree. Mj boy demanded the whip of the hired man to try his hand at driving team; he wantel to help. Now, hear Mr. Misner; "In this, he evidently shows that he had never been learned to show proper ro sjiect to his senior." Might I not with equal propriety retort that your boy "evidently had never been taught proper respect" for the kitten's tail? "He might with propriety politely ask for the whip in order tlut he might try his skill in ilritinf the team." True, he might, hut how much politeness should we expect to find in children not yet pa)jf(j out,of the stage infanoy? For little offences against politeness and good breeding work." It might be in a boy of sixteen, who that agu U supposed to have had many pportunities of bemir tauuht better: but should we class it as the same offence in a child nf six years, who in its innocence and good nature was making its first iffjrt to aid and assist jn the work going on 1 I think the difference in age makes a vast il Diuretic t 1 1 the quality of the offence and demands for each eve a elm-rent method of treatment 1 Again I quote him : "And if, 111 this case he nau been lent nomewitli a 'Ilea in his ear, It n.ight have been a lesson that woul I be use ful to him in after years. (Very doubtful; here I differ with our correspondent). But Inituid of being taught that it was wrong for him U interfere with the work of the hired man, h was taught t' nt he must carry his p'unt rmh or wrong" Mr. Miner's treat ment of such net pisproTipfnn I peremptory; put a "flea in hi ear" an 1 send h 111 home howling to hi m thpr to impart a useful les son for futuro meditation The occision afforded me th opportunity to instruct him how ho canld asist the. work and at thu same time he mut not get in the way of the men and hinder them. The boy learned a useful lesson, was benefittd phvsically nnl ment ally, went home with a cool app-tlto, cheer ful and happy io relate to his mother his new experience. J. B. KNArr. Respecting tho future of this country, Her bert Spencer says that it is to be Inferred from hioloeioal truths that the eventual mix ture of the allied varieties of the Aryan race, forming the population, will produce a more powerful type of man than has hitherto existed. A summarv method of unloading coal boats by tho Aire k Calder Navigation Company, at Gonle, England, is to hoist the coal boat, weighing 30 tona, bodily out ot the vater with an hydraulic crane and literally turn it over into a larger vessel, just as a coal hod Is emptied on a fire. 1 Voluntary Tribute or tiratltude for Ben- fills Received.
