MOTHER'S LOVE, Some day, When others braid your thick brown hlr And drapj 3 our form In silk and law, When others ca'I vou "dear" and "fair," And ho'd jour handa and kin your lace, You'll not f jiget that far above All others la a mother's lore. Some day, Mong strangers In far distant lands, In your new homo beyond the sea, When at your lips are baby hands, And children playing at your knee O then, as at your side they grow, now I hae lovtd you, you will know! Some day, When you'muit feel love's heavy loss, Tou will remember ether years When I, too, bent beneath the cross, And mix my memory with thy tears. In such dark hours be not afraid; Wlth'n their shadow I hare prayed. Some day, At longest It cannot be long, I shall with glaj Impatience wait, Amid the glory and the song, For yeu before the Golden Gate. , After earth's parting and earth's pain, Nevi-r to prt! Never again! Some day, Tour daughter's voice, or sndle, or eyes, Hyface will suddenly recall; Then you will smile In Bweet surprise And our sut unto mine will call In that dear, unforgotten prayer Which wc at evening used to share. Some day, A flower, a song, a word tray be A link between us strong and sweet; Ah, th"n, dear child, remember me! And let j our heart f o "mother" beat. My lo els with you eierywhere You cannot get beyond my praver. Delaware County American. OYSTER TRADE. The Corvallis Gazetto says that the oyster trade on Ynquina bay some years ago was quite a nourishing industry, but of late yenrs has been neglected. From tbo following from the Pof, it would seem that it is soon to bo revived : "A gentleman by th" name of Nelson, repre senting a largo oyster firm in San Fran cisco, has been among the oystermen here trying to perfect nrr.ingcments to pnrchaao and ship oysters to San Fran cisco. Ho proposes to commence with at least four hundred bushels per month, for which he offers one dollar and a bit per bushel. .Tnck King, among others, proposes to furnish him oysters, and will commence preparations to that end next week. Seven, or eight years ago the oys ter business of Yaqnina hay was a sourco of large revenue, and money was plenti ful; but of late years tbo business, from some cause, has been suffered to decline. This has proven beneficial in one respect at least, the beds not having been drawn from to any great extent oysters aro un usually plentiful, and will turn out many a golden twenty-dollar piece to their owners." There is money in the the oyster busi ness ; a gentleman, Mr. Cullin, who has retired on his fortune and is now in Oak land, Cal., went to Oysterville, in Wash ington Territory, some twenty years ago a poor man. He "planted" a few oysters, gradually enlarged his plant till he sup plied the whole coast with bivalves. He had schooners running to San Francisco loaded with oysters, and so quickly ac cumulated a fortune and built up a little town called Oysterville. Since ho left the business has run down ; so that there would now bo a splendid opening at Ya qnina or some other placo which is suit able for the growth of these delicious fish. A few years ago the writer saw fine oysters, which were dug for a bed up the Yaqnina bay, and which had been planted and then been left or forgotten till one happened to rake some out and then the fact of a few having keen plant ed for an experiment, was remembered. Is the oyster business fishing or farming? ROSES AND ROSES.' Now is a good timo to get the roes started, our mild winters are generally favorable to transplanting roots. We have just received some very choice roses from gardens of Dingee & Conrad, West Chester, Penn. They make a specialty of roses and will send a catalogue to anv one who will send to them. Mrs. W. W. Martin, of Salem, has one hundred different varieties of roses from them, getting them at different times. Dingee & Conrad's roses aro all of the choicest varieties, standard roses, that bloom all the year till frost. Cultivation has done much to improve this sweetest of flow ers, so that every variety of color may be had that will bloom all the year until frost come, while we remember the rose bushes of our childhood only blossomed once during the season, now birds and flowers come in continuous succession, and such beautiful form and fragrance. ninp-w A- Conrad cive a premium on levery dollars' worth, adding two roots of 15VT"W """ ""- l tt tiAtw n AAiAPfinn in inn oraer. n u , twould advise thase wno wisn roses 10 senu hn fitim nf mnnov In the shane of postal lftrdr to thia Arm. tukincr them to lend fm variety according to their own judg ment, unless the purchaser has some par ticular kind in view. The plants will come in excellent order with good nice roots, and with ordinary care every one will grow we know, for wo liavo sent a number of orders. The Yaquixa Post in its advertising columns publishes a notice declaring tho intpntion of "Miss Xnncy J. Parker to provo up on her land claim." Why not? Ono hundred and sixty acres of land is worth the taking, and it is most surpris ing that many more women or girls have not taken advantage of this homestead or pre-emption act. Many a woman is living in a make-shift starving way in towns and cities when she might with a good deal of resolution hunt up a piece of land and live on it. There is but little danger in living alone, yet it would be more pleasant to get some other woman to join in. Every man in the vicinity would respect a woman who had such courage, and no man would molest or harm, but rather be inclined to lend a helping hand. If a woman has the health and strength to stand it, the out door life contingent upon a farm is. not as wearing on the body as to sew from morning till night or to stand over some ones kitchen stove earning jiiBt enough to buy necessary clothing. It is only a living that a, working woman gets, any way, and a living is easier made for ono self in this way. In this case one must have a little cash to commence with, to build a small house, buy a cow and a lit tle other stock and some chickens ; that donp, the living comes right away, as the first hen cackles, for the eggs may be eaten or exchanged for something else to eat ; only a few hours every day in a garden will bring every sort of vegeta bles. We don't say that woman will get rich immediately, but she can live more independently, and that means happi ness; then the sense pf ownership is pleasant. It must bo that there are ob stacles in the way of tlr's sort of life that wo do not comprehend, or ceitainly there would have been many a homestead taken by working women, who want a home of their own, and who do not want to marry just to get that home. Hero is the very best sort of a way for a woman to get her rights, for she has a rieht un der our laws to hold land and achieve a home, in the same way as a man and with the same privileges. We must all concede that women can have their rights if they only will apply for them. Tun Astoeiax complains of California packing establishments using Columbia river brands on inferior packages of sal mon, and recommends as a matter of Belf-preservation thatsomo steps be taken to prevent this dishonest-. Tt is well known that Columbia river salmon is the very best in tho world, and the packers on the Colnmbia have had an honorable prido in putting up tbo fish in the very best manner, whether it be salted or canned. Mr. Schwatka, when in Haiti" more, years ago, saw some fmo Columbia salmon as he was walking through a mar ket building and glad we supposo to see anything to remind him of Oregon said to tho man in charge, "Fino fish that?" "Yes, its California salmon, caught in tho Columbia river." So with our best flour, it has been found re-labeled with California brand?. The Weekly Vidette, published at Colfax, gives glowing accounts of the new found placer diggings at Ceour d' Aleno mines, about a hundred miles from Spo kane Falls. It is thought that there aro quartz ledges somewhere in the moun tains from tbo appearance of the gold, Whilo mining excitements aro to bodop- recated, yet it is good for tbo country about where good diggings aro found. It causes some to locate farms, and en courages raising crops to support the miners while at work. It has been in this way that some otherwise undesirable lands have been taken up and improved. We hope they wont "peter out." Cheaper Postage. Tho new law went into force this month allowing a two-cent stamp on a letter that used to call for three cents, Some of the readers of the Farmer may not have thought of it yet, and so we give this little reminder a cent is a cent and counts up after awhile. CHOICE RECIPES. A light and toothsome cream cako is made of four cups of sifted flour, three cups of sugar, one cup of butter, one of cream, five eggs, one cup of Enclih cur rants, and a small teaspoonful of soda. This makes a large loaf and requires an hour and a half to bake. It is a good plan to line tho entire tin with paper, so that the cake can be lifted out without breaking. A little magnesia and water will some times correct the acidity of a child' stomach, and render unnecessary any troneer medicine. Powder a tearpoon ful of the magnesia, and pat it in half a glass of water ; It will not auaolva, of course, but will mix with tho water so that an infant can swallow it. Give a teaspoonful of this three times u day un til the indications warrant you in dis continuing it. When baking fish that is not oily it is an addition to the goodness of tho dinner to bake potatoes in the pan with it. Peel the potatoes and cut them in thick slices, and servo them on the platter with the fish. Tho gravy that accompanies the fish should in this- case be sent to tho table in tho gravy-boat, and not bo poured over tho fish. The potatoes, if perfectly cooked, will be brown and crip and excellent. Emerson called the perfect plum tho "fruit of paradise," and if one must cat hie at all, let it be plum pie. Remove the pits, and unless tho juice is thick with sugar make it so, adding a very lit tle flour, well mixed in so that not one lump is left. Tho crust for plum pie should be delicate without being rich ; this can bo accomplished by working the shortening into the flour deliberately with tho hands. Bake with two crusts. Nice little tea-cakes, to bo baked in muffin rings, aro mado of ono cup of sugar, two eggs, ono cup and a half of milk, ono heaping teaspoonful of baking powder, a piece of butter the size of an egg, and Hour enough to make a stiff batter. In this batter stir a pint bowl full of fruit currants are nice ; fresh berrios in their season, and even canned ones, with juice drained off. Servo while warm, and they arc a dainty addition to the tea table. To Our Boyi. I want to introduce to my young read ers some old friends of mine kindly old fellows, who taught mo my pleasant lessons, and given many hours of quiet enjoyment. First comes Hugh Millor who is he? You ought to know, nil you farmers' sons, you working lads. Hugh was a bright young Scotchman, who lived on tho wild shores of Cromar ty, among people largely ignorant of tho learning of schools, yet who had (what was better) habits of shrewd observation, and were wise in the common things ot wild nature around them. Among these people, Hugh became so careful and ex act an observer of tho rocks and their fossils (with which this region was boun tifully supplied) that almost before bo knew it he was ono of the foremost geol ogists of his day. Very generously, when bo was a famous man, lie wrote a book of bis life from his earliest memo ries up to tbo date of his writing. Ho calls it "My Schools and Schoolmasters," and it is much more interesting than Itobinson Crusoe. Ho tells many things that delight boys, such as adventures in exploring caves along tbo seaside, and being imprisoned by tho tide, and lead ing parties of boys in camping and ox ploring expeditions, and, I fear, subsist ing chiefly on the farmers' potato fields during that time. Tt is all writton in a kindly, simple, pleasant way that makes it delightful reading, and running all through it veins of humor, true, honest philosophy, and tho practical observa tions of Nature and hor everyday wondei s. Perhaps tho best lesson it will tench you, will be that work is not only honorable, but of tho greatest importance in form ing manly character that thero nro better lessons to bo learned right around us than Latin or Greek, and that tbo close observer of common things finds new beauties and marvels where ordinary peoplo see nothing. Every farmer should have thoso in comparable books, "My Farm at Edge wood," and "Wet Days at Edgewood," with as many moio by tho same author as his means will allow. They nro tho most delightful of all farm books, and inspiring to nnyono whoso mind reaches above tho cabbago patch find pig pen. They are built of the sturdiest common sene, but over all, tho wild roses aro frcoly climbing, and their fragrance makes learning a ploasuro. Mitchell is a great traveler and keen observer; bis eye for beauty djd not prevent tho de velopment of his common sense and economy, and when ho took, his eye, bis active brain and his poetic fancy to an ordinary Now England farm, ho made an enviable, success of farm life. Of all tho farm writers ho is tho most civilized, most inspiring and humanizing. His works aro strawl terries and cream, whilo many are meroly pork and cabbage. 'Givo these works more sympathetic readers, and fewer boys will long to leave tho farm for tho cities. Another thoroughly good writer is Thoreau. His books bring yon into close sympathy with Nature, and out of tho artificial life in which we livo and strivo so vainly to be happy. His tonks aro nearly all good and helpful ; perhaps the best is "Walden." Among books written for boys, and mainly intended for amusement, vet helpful, manly and honest, aro Elijah Kellogg's. You will make no mistake in reading them. I have written tbU about what it was well to read, but I lielieve it is just as important to know what not to read. I suppose the freedom of tho press is, all things considered, a good thing j yet it seems a pity that printers' ink is employed in so vile wavs as it is bv tho publishers of dime novels and filthy journals. Now. boys, can you expect to get muscular and strong by eating rotten vegetables and decayed meat, washed down with vile whisky? You know tho terrible wreck such food would make of your body ; vet the mind is as easy to injure, and tho bad books aro as bail food as the decayed fruit ami meat aro for the body. ' It is foolish to choose tho bad when there is so much good. If you read at all, read something that you will not be aabamed of, and that you can apeak of to a friend with pride and pleasure. Be lieve me, the beat U by far the most in teresting. Qcnom ABrakeman who Went to Church.! .iii . i , To me comes the brakeman, and seat - ing himself on tho arm of the car seat says: "I went to church yesterday." "Yes," I said, with that interested in flection that asks for more. "And what church did you attend!" "Which do you guess?" he asked. "Some union mission church?" I haz arded. "Naw," he said, "I don't like to run on these branch roads very much. I don't often go to church, and when I do, 'I want to run on tho main line, where your run is regular and you go on a schedulo timo and don't liavo to wait on connections. I don't like to run on n branch. Good enough, but I don't like it." "Episcopal?" I guessed. "Limcted Express," he said ; "all pal ace cars and $2 extra for a scat; fast time, and only stop at the big stations. Nice line, but too exhaustive for a brake- man.
