WILLAMETTE FARMER; SALEM, OBEQON, APRIL 11, 1884. $tWH epi;tmenf. GENERAL NEWS. The Willajif.ttk Farmku cnrefully compiles all news of interest and fur nishes its readers with a synopsis of all important matters transpiring at home or abroad. Nothing of importance is overlooked. We especially make note of the matters of interest to farmers and important to them transpiring in our own region. Eagles are devouring young lambs in J ohn Day valley. Tho agricultural appropriation bill has passed tho house. The trade dollar is to be lccoiued and mado legitimate money. Gladstone favors further extension of the electoral franchise. Shocks of Earthquake occurred the samo day in Cuba and California. Tho price of barbed wiro has gone up, has advanced twice in sixty days. Rumors of troublo in Arthur's cabi net don't seem to be well founded. It is Dosssiblo the 1'ope may move his headquarters to the United States. The pioneers of Lane county will hold a reunion tho grst Thursday in June. Spring is backward at Spokane, frost not all out of the ground; rain needed. Somo of tho new arrivals say it was the cyclone that blow them to Oregon. General Gordon's position in Egypt ia thought to be desperate at Khartoum. Tho Seattle hospital has seventy pa tient?, forty received from other counties. Tho O. & C.K.K Co. has paid S6.230.H0 taxes on its railroad in Douglas county. A party of filibusters left Koy West for Cuba and landed on the Southern coast. There are Ii25,00O sheep in Umatilla county and sheep shearing ha begun there. Hogue River valloy will in time be de voted to tho culture of tho vine and tho peach. A cyclone in Indiana destioyed tho town of Oakville and killed a number of persons. Farming operations in Rogue River valley are carried on more extensively than ever. The Alaskan, a steel steamer ordered for the O. U. & N. Co., reached Portland last week. The new steamer has eommeneed trips on Ccaur d'Alenc river and lake to the new mines. At Walla Walla 1C5 men and .15 wo men are registered to voto at tho coming city election. Canadian authorities are alarmed at tho extent of the emigration to tho United States. Tho season is late and grain does not look as well as last 3"ear at this time east of the Cascades. American missionaries have been at tacked in Turkey and prevented from oponing schools. In California crop prospects are better than for years and good times are pet in as a consequence. Seattle people will send W. II. Whiter' a delegate to work for tho forfeiturorof tho N. P. land grant. The school fund of Polk county is 12,301.93 of school age, number, 2,978; tax per capita, ?4.w. At Spraguo, J. W. Boolean was shot in court by Edgar Lashbrook. Cause, jealousy; wound not fatal. Wheat sells lower now at Walla Walla than ever was known. Grain fields we suffering there for want of rain, The Linn county school fund is 11, 188,40; per capita, $2.03; persons of school age; 5. 501 ; districts, 96. The worst fire ever known in North Carolina lately burned tho pine woods and destroyed the turpentine forests. The trade between San Francisco and Oregon is good, loading a steamer every four days with passengers and freight. Many fruit trees wore killed by the severe winter in Klickitat and Wasco counties and otherwise east of the Cas cades. The indications are that this Congress will da nothing towards a government telegraph, or the purchase of existing lines. The steamboat Eveningham burned at Culumbns, Oa., and thirteen .passen gers were lost. Some escaped in their night clothes. Chief Justice Axlell, of Arizona, who was charged with all sorts of crime, has beer, fully exonerated by the. Legislature without a dissenting vote. Tho charges against (!ov. Murray, of Utah, are all cleared up. The Mormons tried to defame him to weaken the force of his charges against them. The Blalock farm in Wao county will put in 1400 ncres of cum thin year and the crop is said to I in bargained for already in advance. Five car loads of immigrant reached Portland Sunday, and twelve car loads got to Wallulu the same day. Immigra tion is said to lie of avuperior'rlaiiE and lots of it. ' i Tlie asesinent of propeity in Seattle tity aud King county is about doutv-and its getting into shape will be next under taken, the whole work to be. completed before the meeting of the commissioners in May. If the total valuation of 96.SO0, 000 in the city and 910,00,000 in the ounty ire not exceeded general dis appointment will prevail. In tho Clarno-Doran breach of prom ise case she was awarded $1,200 dam ages, tho jury stood for a long timo eight for $10,000 and four, nothing, then com promised. The House judiciary committee makes an adverse report on the joint resolu tion proposing a constitutional amend ment to confer the right ofsuffrage on women. Sargent says ho was glad of an ex cnseto leave Berlin, and resigns his mission with plcasnre, and considers the appointment to St. Petersburg a full vindication. Klickitat and Wasco farmers will put in much corn this year. It is proved that corn yields thirty or forty bushels to the acre there, and is as good as a summer fallow. Forest fires in South Carolina have destroyed much property and similar fires have occurred in North Carolina, turpentine orchards being burned and their owners ruined. Farmers throughout tho Skagit coun try are planting fruit trees, from fifty to 600 at a timo. It is difficult to estimate tho number already planted in this county, but it is very large. While the backward spring docs not wrco mo growin oi grain as it urn lasi year, the report for all sections of the Pacific Aorthwest is that crop prospects are better than for many years back. In Yakima county nlowinc and seed ing have been going on sinco tho middle of March, .rail wheat promises lairly in all the Upper country. Tho crop pros pect was never so good in that region. There is much talk in tho Eastern dis patches about the political situation and who shall bo President after Arthur. Both parties seem at t-ca. as to candi dates, for it must be some one that can carry New York. Tho Yakima Indians at the Simcoo" agency are busy putting in crops. Every Indian who can muster a plow is turn ing up soil. A larger area of wheat, oats and barley will bo sown by them this season than ever before. Tho Vancouver Independent : Butter makers are delighted with tho forward ness of the grass Drop, which is coming along unsually fast. On the high lands farmers have sown most of their grain, and a great deal of it is up and growing. J. W. Windo. who arrived nt Dayton from Canada a few months ago, has organized a joint stock company for tho manufacture of cheese in Columbia county. The company will bo incorporat ed with $5000 capital in $50 shores. Tho steamer Daniel Steinman, from Antwerp, ran on a rock off Nova Scotia, in a dense fog, sank almost immediately and 120 lives were lost, only seven being saved. It had been foggy for several days and the vessel had outrun her reckoning. As to new guns for the navy a board of engineers that visited European navy yards and arsenals say it will take three years to get into operation the material and mnchincry for making modern guns and a year or two more to make any gun. A monster wild hog eight or nino years old lias for somo years Iwon making things lively on Whidby's Island, on tho Sound, so they got up a boar hunt last week, to get even on the crops destroyed nndAave their notatoes in the raw to come. They captured tho hog. .in iiiiiiiwiwv ,vu. ...it ovumv i,u.3 A n in-imnticii wnrtl nrwl sImicm wnvv house is being erected near the old mint building in The Dalles. It will bo 300 feet long, 50 feet wide, and 18 feet to tho ceiling. They have engaged a wool grader whose grade mark will bo accept ed in any wool market in tno Union. The Houso has passed tho Indianyfp propriation bill with an amendmejn of Brents' to appropriate $85,000 taftarry out the arrangement with Moser band and other bands on the Columbia river reservation, by which they sell their rights there and take lands in severalty, mostly on the Colville reservation. The othor day General Grant hobbled into the Houso of Congress on his crntches'when Democrats formed a cir cle around him and took possession be fore Republicans saw him. Business was left for awhile and all possible hon ors paid by all persons and parties to the old Union commander. A pleasant in cident. . When the bill forfeiting the Oregon and California grant was up in the House Congressman George, of Oregon, made a strong speech, showing the effect the bill would produce as it came from the committee, causing itigationvRnd making trouble. He projwsod five amendments which were adopted by unanimous consent. Our Congressman won much honor by his clear-headed common ren-e. . The fact concerning the death of Prince Leopold, tho Duke of Albany, at Cannes, is saidto bo that he was for almost tho first time allowed to go unwatched, and got on a spree, gambled and drank, and died of epilepsy. One London journal had tho courage to tell the truth. The Prince of Wales dis liked him greatly, and his grief was moru apparent than rt-a). The lniilge for the Oregon Short Line which spans Snake river, when com pleted, will be an iron truss bridge, sup portftl by two abutments and three channel piers of substantial niasonrv. Tho length of the spans are each lfc feet, 4 inches', and the hight of the tiers between maonry and base rail 31 feet, Si inrhci. The total hight of the bridgo above low-water mark will be fifty-beyen feet, and, as may easily lie tuppond, Will fwm a very imposing structure when completed. Work on tho bridge has been tfoing ou now ftir more than four month, and it expected to last three month longer. BAN FRANCISCO AMD PORTLAND FREIGHTS. There lias always existed an un reasonable differenco in freights from San Francisco and Portland to Liver pool. At present this differenco amounts to 10s sterling, or $2.50 in our money per ton, paid from Portland than from San Francisco. At ono time last fall this excess from Portland was only 5s per ton, but, with 'that exception, the differenco of 10s per ton has been steadily maintained. The Farmer has showed this up for years back and protested that it was unfair. The ship off on tho broad Pacific cannot bo more than two or thrco days sail further from Portland than from San Francisco and the voyage round from Liverpool and return can not bo over ono week longer from Port land than from San Francisco. It is no doubt truo that ships make voyages to and from one port as readily as the other. Every vessel undergoes detention of weeks, and often of months, waiting for cargoes, or for seamen. Tho short deten tion caused by the difference in distance cannot be of serious moment. We learn that ships only ask at l'ugot Sound tho current rates from San Francisco; so distance docs not figure in the nccount as the Sound is more distant than Port- laud. It is no doubt true that they make a bug-boar of tho Columbia river, but it is time that humbug was exploded. Harbor and river charges are heavy on the Columbia but they foot up almost exactly what it costs for a ship to enter San Francisco. Considering the expenso of pilotage nnd towage on the river above Astoria, chargos with us are much lower than at San Francisco for actual work done. It is true that this distinction without, a reasonablo difference was abolished; wo arc glad to believe that it is about to bo abolished by actual events. There is springing up a heavy coasting trade between the two great cities and chcapning of freights is ono result. The opening of traffic with Yaquina Bay will land wheal in San Francisco nearly if not quite as cheap as it can he carried to Astoria or Portland. This will bring about honest compitition and to hold their own against it. Ships will have to load at Portland for San Francisco prices. We look forward to tho opening of commerco from Yaquina Bay as an important consumation for the farmers of our valley. They will have all in their favor that competition can possibly offer. Portland merchants possess facili ties for doing business on equal terms with San Francisco and we are about to see a closo rivalry established between those great cities. As to purchase of supplies our producers will bo favored by these circumstances and as to tho freight market they will also lw bono fited. We are coming upon times wliou the question will bo whether there bo any market for wheat. It is important that freights shall rule low or we may itbe able to coiuui.iud any price that wiiriutify piodurlion at this distance X Cora Raisins on a Large Scale. A contract was completed, last week, between A. H. Johnson and N. (S. Bla lock, of Blalock's, Wasco county, which is likely to have great intluonco on the future of that county and the Slate at large. Tho Orcgoni.m says: Mr. Bla lock contracts to plant, cultivate and de liver in the shock 1,500 acres of corn. This is corn planting on a scalo hitherto unknown in Orogon. There can be no doubt of tho success of the crop, as Mr. Blalock has liecn experimenting for three years, and last year raised forty bushels per acre, without a drop of rain. Specimens of the corn can be seen at the land department of tho Northern Pacific railroad. Mr. Blalock has eighty horses now at work plowing the land, and is pushing tho work with vigor, as the crop must bo in by tho middle of May. Mr. Johnson will have a band of 100 steers collected on his range, all three years old and upward, and about August will drive them to the rango adjoining the com field, and when tho grass falls will feed the corn to them and to 1,000 hogs and as many sheep, all of which he ex pects to fatten on tho product of the 1,500 acre. Tho band of steers before they aro fi-d any corn will he worth about StX),000, and they will be fed till about March, and will come into market when there is no good grass-fed licof to bo had. Tim result of this scheme will be watched with much interest, and, if it proves tho succcw confidently anticipa ted, we may expect in the near future to see the corn fields of Eastern Oregon rivaling those of Illinois. There is probability that there illl bu u commencement mado this year on a a railroad to connect Gray's Harbor and Shoalwatrr lljy with tho Columbia ri or nt JIwjco. Your common ene should teacb you that if say doctor or druggist knew of better remedy forcoMn, couctii snd lung complaint, Ammen'i Cough Syrup, be would ei'.ber put it p for general isle or tell tbe prescription to Mr. Amnven who ofleni to the world one thousand dollar for the prescription for better remedy tbn Ammen'e Cougb Syrup.
