Nearly nil tho necessary funds have boon raised in Benton county for build ing n 20,000 agricultural college build ing. IloborU and O'Ncil saved tho fruit in their orchard near Mcdford by keeping up a firo during tho recent cold night bonfires of oak wood and dry barnyard manure on tho windward side of tho orchard. Thoy will have an abundance of peaches. Governor Sqiiiio is advertising for bids, rcccivablo iii to Juno ICth, for pinking artesian wells in Adams county, pro vided for by tho last Legislature.

Asli 0000 stock Bhcop, Montana. Excepting McBsrs. Gradcn and Anh'u bands, who will ship per Northorn Pacific from Caallo rock, tho rest will bo driven over land. Tho total number of shocp in tho different bands is 02,100, and tho aver ago price paid wuh $1 55 n head. Somo parties cloanod out an old tunnol near Jacksonville, to find a com ploto set of tools for tunnel work includ ing candles and candlesticks to work with and a wheolbairow. llnilroad building promises to bolivoly ooon, as tho O. fc O. has to bo fiiimhed to California, tho Oregon Short Lino is thinking of building to tido water; tho Narrow Guago is pushing mattoro, and tho O. K. & N. Co. will build tho Farm ington branch. This, with tho work on tho Northern .Pacific will kcop white men nud Chinamen employed. Grass on tho cattle rangen is said to bo bettor tlinn over known at this sea son. So says Don Snipes, tho cattle king of Eiiatorn Orogon.

Uy tho timo tho fishcrmon got ovor their strike tho salmon got over thoir big spring run, now it is very light. Eastern buyers havo lately bcon purchasing cattlo in this valloy to a largo oxtont. Now wo learn that two stock men from Canada havo boon buy ing stock in Union and Bakor counties to ship to Iiritish possessions. They bought a thousand head of J. ). Shirley, of Grande Rondo. To improvo tho muddy flavor of carp, got by growing in dirty water, it is necessary to let them live a few weeks in fresh water before eating thorn. Hurt Denofiedl, who was kicked by a horse, says tho Lexington Blado, has died of tho injury. W. W. Cochran, of Grant county, after failing to shoot anothor man, mutlo a successful shot and killed himself. Frod Sitton. of Yamhill, shot a bear four or live times and then shot himself m a tioo, where bruin stood guard over him until his cries brought help. Tip Justus, of Grants Pass, had colic and took too largo a doso of liniment, so that it killed him. Telegraphic. New. Tho cyclone last weok swept through tho continent from Kansas to Gauadu and caused terriblo devastation. It was, probably, tho most serious ever known. Deccher has prcachod on the China question and says wo need not fear any bad results from their presenco here. Senator Dolph has introduced u bill to nutlioiizo a suit to test the fact if tho wagon roads havo lecn so built in Ore gon as to earn tho lands granted for that purpose. Tho men who somo time ago robbed tho express car of .$200,000 and killed Kellogg, the messenger, near Rock Island, havo lieen run down and ar rested. Prospects are good for an early settle ment of tho transcontinental railroad troubles. In San Francisco tho police arrested five socialists, who were harranging a crowd in tho streets. Ouo of them wanted the crowd to sack tho palaces of tho magnates on Nob hill. Thoro is said to bo no hopo for tho passage of tho homo rule bill, as the sen timent against it increases daily. i MCrop returns throughout the United States are ery favorable. , A long drouth prevails in parts of Texas, on tho plains west of Rig Springs, It is dryer than for twenty years before. Cattlo aro suffering and dying by thousands. E.x-ProsiuViit Arthur is dying of Rright's disease. Tho storm Inst week, Wednesday, en u sod immemo dainngo and loss of lifo in Cincinnati. St. Mrn, London, Ontario, and nil tho middle and west ern States sniTon d great loss. Alderman Jachonc, of New York, on trial for bribing tho Uroadway railroad caso, was convicted. Many cx-aldcrmcn are staying in Canada bocnus o they fear similar treatment. Lewis Lingg was ancstcd in Chicago, whilo hiding, and thcro is posit ivo proof that ho throw tho bombs tlint killed so many policemen in tho timo of tho riots. Heathen evictions havo taken placo on the estate of Lord Kcnmore, in Ire land. His )oorrst tonnants have turned out. At Madrid, Spain, thirty-two persons woro killed and (520 persons injured by a terriblo hurricane that devastated that city.

It is tmid mniiy lilmral members of parliament will not sustain tho homo rule bill for Ireland anil its prospcctB nro not improving. A Oreat Business. Not long sinco wo went through tho establishment of tho Knnpp Rurroll & Company, corporation, in Portland, nnd though wo had tccn enough agricultural machinory, olc, to supply all the Pacific Northwest in thoir immciuo warchotiso and stores, four stories high nnd 50x200 foot on tho floor. Indeed this spneo contained u great variety, but Mr. Knapp invited a. further investigation of thoir resources, so wo wont to tho wharves and storage dcpaitmont on tho river, eloso by, where they keep a great number of engines and heavy nmchinory, such as threshors.etc. Hero woro rongod, (on tho lower wharf uh well as tho upper floors) many vory expensive engines and machines that will find their way this summer to tho harvest fields of this far West. It is astonishing to what an ex tent this business has advancod in a few years and tho immense amount of capital that is required to carry it on. In tho main store building, on Front street, on tho north sido of tho hccoihI, wo noticed pigoon holes, by tho hundred. Thcso proved to bo their assortment of extras for tho McCormick macliinos alouo, and it illustrates thoir immoiiso business to say that in this matter of supplying extra pieces for mnchinos thoy sell, thoro is enough to constituto a largo business of itself. arattlog a rapt i- An exchango speaking of this subject suys : Grafting thograpo does not differ, cssontially, from other grafting. Tho ordinary cleft-grafting u-ion tho grow ing root is usually performed. Wax is not used since, tho graft inserted, tho earth is then drawn around the graft, which protects it from nir. Tho ino, however, must bo grafted either in tho winter, tho early spring beforo tho sap has started, or so late that tho leaves, boing out, will prevent flooding, of tho graft and its drowning from tho blood ing of tho root. Anyono who has pruned tho vino in spring will easily under stand this. Vines may bo laid down and grafted as Into as mid-summer. Our ad vico is- Keep your grafts in a cool place until tho vim is in full leaf; insert your hdons in tho root, but leave at loast a portion of tho original vine, or atock, growing; wait until your grafts havo Ikj como securely united to the stock and havo put forth loaves of their own ; thou cut away tho old vine. The leaes having formed oh tho now part, tho sap will boat least partly, nbsorljed by them,' und tho "bleeding" bo less, A horso breeder suggests that if you placo a pieco of rock wit in tho mangor of each horso, you will e.ivo yoursolf tlio trnublo of throwing in a handful of salt ouco a week, as is often the custom among farraors. With rock salt within their reach horses can obtain us much as thoy want, and when they want it, but when pulverized salt is given to them at intervals of a woek or ten days tlio in creased appetites brought on by tho waiting will cause them to eatmcroof it than thoy need, and it tluiB becomes an injury instead of a lencfit. Unques tionably tho best plan for salting horsco it to keep it within tho reach at all ismes and thoro is no better shapo to havo in than as rock' salt. Fem.Ua Help Wasted. Mr. H. W.
