Clicshiio, of Kniglitfibridgc, KiiglaiKl, ilelivrrnd u lee iurc there on tlio 8Utject of bees n iyl .vidizors nnd fniit prodticerH, or the tl pcndcnco of orcliurd' crops on Ixctt. An -eiiitonio of n few (it the points consul wed will Ix; rend .with no little intoiest lxth hy upiuiiiiii and hortiuulturiti. Ho commences by uxpLiiiiing that the ionguc of the hco !h of oxtromo length in proportion to the sizo of tlio in-cct. Irt passing over the bloom, the Ixxly of the hoc becomes dnxted ly tho anthers which contain the pollen. Thin ixillen in conveyed from ono bloom to another, in each of which it U taken up by the tigmatu, nnd thus cross fertilisation its established. Very matiy blooms depend for thoir prixluction on the visits of boos. Thohivo bco i only one anion;; tlio 177 distinct species of hoes that (rather honey '' I from Hownra. II is the most industri ous of any. It faces bao weather when ho wild bees will not. Any ono who will trouble himself to go out necking for opecimons of wild'bceH will soon find thin to lx) tho cuxo. ,Ho will discover that in bud weather the wild bees will keep Bafuly in thoir nostn at home, ifo (tho lecturer) remarked that tho value of been in fertilizing fruit t recti was btrik ingly illustrated to him hoiiio time ngo. Ho had heaid of a lady in DerbyHhire, who miido largo iirofitH from her or chards. Slio is tho posFCSHor of Hcvoral hives of bees, but evidently did not know how these inscctH wero co-operating with her in tho production of tho chorrios. For houiu roar-on or other (die h)cided to give up hor beeH. The rosult win most din.iHliolls to the yi.ilil of Iho orchard. Ho then pointed to hiiiiii diagrams hhowing ccclioiiH of two kindH of prim roses, tlio tlnumb-eyed primrose and tho pin-oyed piimroso, and described tho means by which ono kind is fertilized by tho other through tho medium of bco. It was not generally known, tho reason of apples failing Irom liven, and in many cased tho popular notion on this subject wore quite erronpous. The ap plo in divided into different sections, which wero gathered together into one envelope. Tho bloom of tho ajijile Ii.ih live Htigmnta to each of these divisions. Kach of theHO stigmata must bo inde jHjndontly fertilizNl, or tho result is that the fruit becomes defective in formation, and wilheis prematurely, and diops from iho tree. Ho then produced kcc ral imperfectly shaped apples, in each of which Homo sections wero fully devel oped, while others wero not properly grown. Upon culling open tho speci mens it was discovered that fertilization had not been effected in the undeveloped HCClioilH. Tlio same rcmaikn applied to a Luge evlcnt in tho caso of the strawberry, which lcipiiied from two to tin io hun dred distinct feitili.atious in order to secure a perfectly juicy and lipefiuit. No doubt many had seen a Mrawbcriy in which one. iioilinn was quito tipc, whilo another pait of it lemaiuel green and undevcloiK'd. Hero fettiliation had not Ik-oii complete. The lecturer then exhibited Iho hive of a wild bee, which he hud discoorcd,aud mid it had beon built on the Stowarton principle, that is, story iilxivo Htory. A small tun nel had been constructed, at the end of which nemo eggs woro deposited ; these woro covered over with n piece of leaf, nnd thin process had Iwon repeated until thero were three or four layers of eggs. Jt might appear to his hearers dilllcult to understand how the young bees, when hatched could extricate themselves from the layers of the nests, which wero closed up one iibuvit another especially as tho eggs Hint laid wero at tho bottom. This wan to lm explained by the fact that tho eggs last l.iid woro always hatched fust. Mr. Cheshire, concluded his observations with some eloquent re murks rm the phenomena of nature, and the instruction and plciiMiio lo ho do mod from tho cultivation of bees. Tb Honey D.ir Field, of Ortgou In addition to tho excellent tutiolo from tho of Mr. K. S. Iliooks, of Sllverton, wo publish tho following, which we had previously taken from tho Ulouniugs in Uoo Culture, published by A. 1. Hoot, and which will lx lead with interest. "The number of trooa exuding this sweet cannot well lo o-tiinntiHl. Our forests heioare evergreen, and tho fir Is Iho principal timU'r. In the vicinity where 1 gathered the sample sent you. 1 should s.iy thero would bo a hundred lives to tho acre. It is in spots, or on occasional limbs on the tiee , and it itlno is in spots as to locality. This Ml of country is situated in the foothills of tho Cascade mountains; and how far it may extend along this range, I could not Miy, but 1 mi pi KIM) for many miles. The rea son I ilo not locate my Ihvs in the midt of this fountain of sweet, is, that tho bees tlint are thero do not scvin to make my mora honey, or nearly iw much, iu w here initio are located now ; Wi-ides, 1 ;iiu only a little to one side of tho midst now. A singular us it may seem, 1 do not seo n single Ivo gathering the hweet tram thaw trees, though others claim to havo soon them at work brisk, ly, where llowcru vmf scarce. From wntohiug my Itw, I tstiieliide that they don't work on it when honey-dow of any kind - liiiuid or crystalled is abundant, for the dow ers arc then rich too. Thishoiiey-deiv, in its more liquid state, is quite common, in portions of tho State ; that, u, overy good honey year, or, say, four out of live years. It fuakes its apiicur.iiico in dry sca)iis alxjut the middle of Juno nnd lats about Iwri months. Haiiis wash it all away. The first that came under my oWrviition was in tho summer of 1881; following vcan, KSS'J and 188.'!. So 1 think it is not unusual. I saw it crys tnli7ed on the lir only, excopt ns it dripped to the plants bcucuth, nnd gar dened there. Rendering Beeswax. What is the be.'t and easiest way of trying out beeswax? Answer: ''There are several methods of melting up combs and capping, into wax, but 1 have tried none that is more simple, or better, than to mako a bag out of somo coar?o sacking: fill il with pieces of comb, tie it up, and put it into a wash boiler. .Sot the boiler on the stove, and fill it nearly full of water. When tho water is almost hot enough to boil, take a stick and punch, poke anil pres the bag until the wax is all melted and risen to the top. Xow lay a narrow .strip of board across the top of tho boiler, and lio it fast to tho handles ; then tako two or throo slicks that arc nearly ns long ns tho boiler is docp, press tho bag down to tho bottom of the boiler with these sticks', rlud keep it in this position by putting tho4 upper ends of the sticks under tho strip of board that is fastened across tho top of tho boiler. Now set tho boiler off tho stove, and when its con tents me cold, the wax can bo taken ofT iu ono solid c.ako. In parsing through tho bag tho wlix is cleansed from nil coarso impurities, whilo tho fino particles of dirt that do cscapo will bo found either upon the top or liottom of the cake of wax, fioiu whence they can eas ily bo removed. When tho combs nnd cuppings lutvo all been worked up, and the cakes of wax have been scraped fieo from nil dirt or sediment, tho cakes should nil bo put into the boiler, melted up together, and tho wax run into ne.U cakes."

Tramps. l'or many yeais wo have read in 1'list orn pa pew of tho great numbers of vag abond men who travel on foot from place to place, stopping at houses to bog food, and generally very impudent if they find no innu around. Many cases of murder and inpo have been known to have beon committed by theso creatures called "tramps," who liavo seemed to bo an orgnnized band, having their own particular beats, visiting certain locali ties nt stated' times. We hero on this coast have beon signally fioo from beg gars, or tramps, but wo now hear of hun dreds of idle moil who were turned oil' fioiu r.iihoad woilc, are Hooding tho country Kast of tho Mountains, and who aro gradually getting down into this val ley, and hereafter no-will have lobe more watchful nnd guarded in admitting str.ingeis. This sort of llo.iting population that aie found working on railroad contracts are generally of bud sleek, men who for various reasons have had to le.no the places where they were known, of course thero aie exception-, but this is the rule.

All tho little towns in thoieinity of the railroads aro flooded with hungry men, nnd who ought not to receive pity, for in most cases they have spent their wages iu thosiiloons for whisky, yet for the safely and protection of women, must be fed by the public. Tho road connecting us with the Kat, so long looked nnd huped for, has brought us neaior the great centers, and it has also made an easy outlet fur the llow of an undosimblo population that in the past was kept at homo by tlio long and exjK'ii-ixo journey, Xow n tide may be stolen, failing of that, there is a high nnd dry roml-bod to foot ii on.

W1LL.AMKTXE WAKMEB: SALEM, OREGON, FEBRUARY A DANGEROUS AMBC3CADB Discovered Barely In Time Tho Most Decep tive and Lurtns of Modern Evils Craphlcallr Described. (3jtcum .lo-jrr.l ) Something of n sensation was caused in this city yesterday by a rumor that ono of our best known citize. ns was about to publish a statement concerning some unusual experiences during his resi dence in .Syrncure. How tho rumor originated it is impossible to say, but a reporter immediately sought Dr. S. G. M nrtin, the gentleman in question, and secured the following interview : "What about this rumor, Doctor, that you aro going to make a public state ment ol some important matters I" "Just about the same ns you will find in all tho rumors some truth; some fic tion. I had contemplated making a publication of some remarkable episodes that occuired in my life, but have not completed it as yet." "What is the nature of it, may I en quire?" "Why, the fact tlint Iaraa human being instead of a spirit. I hnve passed through ono of the most wonderful oi deals that perhnps ever occurred to any man. The first intimation I had of it was several years ago, when I began to feel chilly at night and restless nftcr re tiring. Occasionally this would bo var ied by n soreness of the muscles anil cramps in my arms and legs. I thought, ns most iwople would think, that it was only a cold nnd so paid ns little attention to it as possible. Shortly after this I noticed a peculiar catarrhal trouble nnd my throat also became inflamed. As if this wero not variety enough I felt sharp pains in my chest, and a constant ten dency to headache. ''Why didn't you tako Iho matter in hnnd nnd check it right whero it wns?" "Why doesn't everybody do so? Simply because they think it is 'only some trilling nnd pnssing disorder, These troubles did not como all nt once and I thought it unmanly to heed them, I have found, though, Hint every physical neglect must be paid for and with largo inteicst. Men cannot draw drafts on their constitution without honoring them sometime. Theso minor symptoms 1 have dc-eribed, grew until they wore giants of agony. I became moie ner vous ; had a strnngo lluttcring of tho heait, an inability to draw a long breath and tin occasional numbness that was terribly suggestive of paralysis. Howl could havo been so blind as not to understand what this meant 1 cannot imagino." "And did you do nothing?" "ies, 1 traveled. In the spring of 1879 1 went to Kansas and Colorado, and whilo hi Denver, 1 was attencked with a mysterious homorrhago of the iirinaiy organs nnd lost twenty pounds of llosh in thrco'weoks. Ono day after my return I was taken with a torrible chill and at oneo advanced to a scrvore attack of pneumonia. My left lung soon cut iroly filled with water nnd my legs and body become twice thoir natural size. 1 was obliged to sit upright in bed for several weeks in tho midst of the seveicstngony, with my nrms over my head, nnd in constant fear of suffoca tion." "And did you still ninko no nttempt to no yourself r "1'i's, I made fi antio efforts. 1 tried evervthing that seemed to oner mo least prospect of relief. I railed a council of doctors and had them mako an exhaus tive chemical and micio-s.-opica'l exami nation of my condition. Five of tho best physicians of Syracuso nnd seveinl from another city said I must diol It seemed as though their assertion was true for my feet became cold, my mouth parched, my eyes wore a fixed glassy stare, my body was covered with a cold, clammy death sweat, and 1 road my fate in tho nnxious expiossions of my fnmilv und friends." "Hut ho finnler ''Canio at lat. My wife, aroused to desperation, began to administer a rem edy uiMm her own responsibility nnd while 1 grow hotter very slowly. 1 cninod ground surely until, in brief, I havo no trace of tlio terriwo linglit s discaso.from which 1 was dying, and am n perfectly well iimn. This niny sound like n ro mance, but it is true, and my life, health and what I am aro duo to Warner's Safe Cure, which I wish was known to and used by the thousands who, I beleive.aro sintering this nunuto as I was originally, Pen's not such nn oxiicrionco as this jus tify mo in making a public statement?" "It certainly does, but then Bright's disea.-o is not n common complaint, doctor." "Not common! On tho contrary it is ono of tho most common. Tho trouble i-, few people know they havo it. , Ithns so few maiked symptoms until its fund stages that a person may hnvo it for years, each year getting more and more in its lHiwcr and not suspect it. It is quito natural I should feel cnthusiostic o er this remedy while my wife is even more so than I am. Sho knows of its being used with surprising results by manv ladies for their own peculiar ail ments, oer which it has singular power." The statement drawn out by tho alwve interview is amply confirmed by very many of our most prominent citi zens, among them loing Judge lleigel, and Col, James S. Goodrich, of the Times, while Gen. Dwight ll.Bruco and Kcv. lYof. W. 1. Coddington, D. 1)., give tho remedy their heartiest endorsement. In this age of wonders, surprising things are quito common Imrnii experience so unusual ns that 6f l)r, Martin's and oc curring hero in our inid-t, mny well cau-e comment nnd teach n lesson. It shows tho iiociSMty of gunrdiui: the slightest tippixuoh of oh sieal disorder and by tho metrtis which has boon prov en tho most reliable, nnd etlicicut. , It shows tho depth to which one can sink and yet bo rescued nnd it proves tlfal few jieoj le need suffer it these truths iv observed. flyer's Cherry Pectoral.
