WLjuiuxiETTfi FARMEK; SALEM, OREGON, OCTOBER 22, 1880 ' . M- Sir Una HAMUOT T. CLARKE, Editor THAT LINE FENCE. Old Farmer Smith camo homo In a miff From hts field the other day, "VVhllo hit sweet little wife, tho prido of his life, At her wheel w splnnlnu awy. And ever and anon a gay little sdhr With the buz of her wheel kept timoj And his wrathful brow l clearing now, Under her cheerful rhyme. "Come, come, little Turk, put away your work, And listen to what I ay; What can I do, but a quarrel brew With tho man across tho way? 'I havo built my fonco, but he won't com mence To lay a tingle rail) Ilia cattle getjiu, and tho food gets thin I Am tempted to mako a aalol" 'Why, John, dear John, how you do go onl I'm afraid it will be aa they aay." "No, no, littlo wife, I heard that strife In a lawyer's handi don't pay. "Ho ia picking a Daw, to drive mo to law I am told that ho laid ho would And you know, lon aqo, law wronged mcao, I vowed that I novcr ahould. "So what can I do, that 1 will not ruo To tho man across tho way?" "If that's what you want, I can holp you haunt That man with a accptor gray. "Thirty dollars will do to carry you through, And then you havo gained a neighbor ( It would coat you moro to peep iu tho door Of a court, and as much moro labor, "Just uso your good seme lot's build him a fonco, And ihamo bad acts out of tho fellow." They built up hia part, and sent to his heart Love's dart whero tho good thoughts mol low, That very samo night, by tho candlo light, They opened with intercit a letter; INot a word was there, but thrco grconbacks fair Said The man waa growing better. A Determined Woman. Ono day last wcok tho watchman at tho Washington Monument was aston ished by a lamo woman leaning on crutchos asking permission to go to tho top. Sho had not provided horsolf with n pass, but tho watchman thought ho would sparo hor tho journey to tho War Department and back becauso of her in firmity and let her go into tho monu ment without it, Ucsitics, no liacl no idea that sho would go very far up tho stcon stairway. Sho was confident enough for both, and told him sho would "get thero all tho same." Sho could not carry a candlo, as it took both of her bands to manago her crutches. So sho hired a boy to go abend of hor to light tho way. Two hours afterward sho re appeared at tho bottom, having mado tho ascent and descent without moro evidences of fatiguo than is customary with thoso who aro in perfoct physical condition. Sho was very proud of hor morning's work, and said that perhaps wooden legs woro bettor for climbing monuments than thoso of lloah. At any rato hor wooden ones woro not tho least tired. Mrs. Stanton will havo to put this caso among tho records of womanly courago and porsistonco. Up to dato no lamo man has climbed up to tho top of tho Washington Monument. Woman's Journal.

A word of six letters is tho delight of Eastern cattle. Removo tho first letters and leave an admirer ; tho two first and givo across ; remove tho last only givo a tropical spice ; removo tho first and last and wo have a human passion. A word of six loiters is the homo of our dumb friends. Removo tho first and wo havo an articlo of f urnituro ; tho first two, and wo havo power to do j tho two last, and wo havo to inflict a wound.

Ono most valuablo articlo of food is strangely neglected in tho bouses of many working pcoplo rico. It is cheap, wholcsomo and nutritious, and it may bo cooked in a great variety of ways. All vegotablcs and farinaceous foods aro nutritions, and, when properly prepared, digestible. Thoy aro not equal to animal food in nutriment, weight for woight. Chemists say that a pound of moat is about equal in nourishment to a pound and a half of rico or bread. Rut tho cost of a pound of meat is oqual to that of four pounds of theso. CHOICE RECIPES. Ruttormilk Biscuits. To throo cup fuls of buttermilk add ono of buttor, ono teaspoon ful of cream of tartar, half a toaspoonful of soda, n dessort spoon ful of salt, and flourenougb to mako tho dough just stiff onough to admit of bo ing rolled out into biscuits. Soft Gingnrbrcod (without eggs). Ono tablospoonful butler, ono tnblo spoonful ginger, ono-bnlf cup of brown sugar, two cups molasses, two cups water or milk,ono and a half tcaspoonfulsodat do not stir vory long; bako in n modcr ato oven. Pork Cake. Half a pound of salt pork chopped fino, two cups of molasses, half pound raisins chopped well, two toa spoonfuls each of cloves, allspico and mace, half a toaspoonful of salcratus or soda, and flour enough to mako a stifT batter. Tho ovon must not bo too hot. Salad and Beets. This salad is par ticularly good when both beets and po tatoes aro new and tondor. Boil in salted wator, equal quantities of both, and sot on ico to get cold. Just beforo serving cut thorn into thin but regular slices, dress with pepper, salt, oil and vinogar, and garnish with watercress. Boil fivo eggs for twenty minutes. Whilo thoy aro cold, molt two tnblo spoonfuls of buttor in a saucepan, add tho samo quantity of flour and one pint of boiling milk. Season well, slico tho eggs into this sauco and servo hot with parsloy, and you lmvo a good luncheon dish. Pressed Chickon. Cut tho chicken into four parts, boil it in as littlo water ns pbsstblo ; when dono tondor tako out tho meat, but keep tho broth boiling; pick tho meat from tho bones, chop it, and add butter, pepper and salt. Tako all fat from your broth, then pour ovor tho chopped chicken. Thon press it and servo cold. Try this Layer Cako. Fivo eggs, their woight in fino flour, and also in sugar, and half their woight in buttor. Melt tho buttor and mix it with sugar, adding tho yolks of tho eggs, ono by ono, beat ing all tho timo, and thon add tho whites, which havo been beaten to a stiff froth, adding tho flour last. Bako in four jelly-cako tins. Marmalado or quinco jam is spread between tho layers. A Great Well. A. T. Fowler kindly gavo us somo as tonishing figures in regard to an artesian woll lately completed in Kern county. It is tho property of Monzo Spring, and is located four miles south of tho Tu laro lino and sixteen miles west of tho railroad. It has a flow of precisely four feet, that is, tho water coming through tho pipes shoots up into tho air just four feet abovo tho casing and thon falls to tho ground. Tho volumo of water dis charged must bo immenso, for a six inch flow over such a casing would cover an aero of ground to a depth of noarly fivo feet in twenty-four hours. Wo had hoard of this beforo, but bo lioved tbo stories in regard to it exag gerated, but Mr. Fowler is a reliable man, and boing a civil engineor and having an engineer's level with him, bis measurements must havo been as accu rate as his authority js unquestionable Tularo Register.

Not long sinco, whllo visiting a friend I got a bint on tho caro of fiat-irons that was now to me. Beforo putting thorn on tho stovo to boat, sho washed and wiped thorn carefully, and on ques tioning why sho did so, said tho starch was apt to form a thin crust ovor thorn, that it was tho safost way to insuro entirely clean pioccs after thoy wcro ironed. As her clothes camo from hor hands thero wns never tho least soiled spot, as is so often tho caso, especially in bosoms and starched pieces. Another hint is to keep them, if possible, in n closot, away from tho steam of tho kitchon, ns this is apt to rust thorn, and will also como oil' on tho clothes, when ironed. Do not lot thorn stand on tho stovo longor than is necessary, ns thoy got greasy and rusty from cooking food. A littlo picco of beeswax tied in a cloth nud rubbod quickly over tho hot irons will smooth them and rcmovo rustincss. Bo caroful to iron thorn oflf after applying tho wax, or thoy may stain tho choico pieces. It is an econ omy of timo to always kcop n bit of tho wax with tho ironing things. A Word to Boys. You aro mado to bo kind, boys, gener ous, magnanimous. If thero is n boy in Bchool who has a clubfoot, don't lot him soo that you over saw it. If thoro is n poor boy with ragged clothes, don't talk about rags in his bearing. If thoro is a lamo boy, assign him somo part in tho gamo that doesn't re- quiro running. If thoro is a hungry ono, givo him part of your dinnor. If thoro is a dull ono help bun toloarn his lesson. If thoro is n bright ono, bo not envious of him ; for if tho boy is proud of his talents, and another is envious of thorn, thoro aro two great wrongs, and no moro talent than boforo. If a largor or stronger boy has injured you, and is sorry for it, forgivo him. All tbo school will show by their counte nances how much bettor it is than to havo a groat fuss. Pat tho Agreement In Writing. How many misunderstandings ariso from tho looso way in which business mattors aro talkod over, and then whon each party puts its own construction on tho conversation, tho matter is dis missed by each with tho words : "All right, all right." Frcquontly it turns out all wrong, and bocomes n question for law ami tho courts. Moro than tbrco-fourths of tho litigation of tho country would bo saved, if pcoplo would put down thoir agreements iu writing, nnd sign thoir named lo it. Each word in our languago has its own particular moaning, and tho memory may, by tho chnugo of its position in n soutonco, convoy an entiroly different idoa from that intonded. Exchnngo. A Perfect Baklnff Powder. Tho great success of tho Royal Baking Powdor is duo to tho extreme caro exor- cieod by its manufacturers to mako it entirely pure, uniform in quality, and of tbo highest leavening power. All tho scicntifio knowledge, caro and skill at tained by a twenty years' practical ox porienco nro contributed ( toward this ond, nnd no pharmaceutical prepara tion can bo dispensed with a greater ac curacy, precision and exactness. Every articlo used is absolutely pure. A num Iwr of chemists aro employed to test tho strength of each ingredient, so that its exact power and effect in combina tion with its co-ingredionts is definitely known. Nothing is trusted to chanco, and no porson is employed in tho pre paration of tho matenals used or tho manufacture of tho powdor, who Is not an expert in his particular branch of tho business. As a consequenco, the Royal Baking Powder is of tho highest grudo of excellence, always puro, wholosomo and uniform in quality. Each box is exactly like every other, and will retnin its powors nnd produce tho samo nnd tho highest lenvonlng effect in any cli mato, at any timo. Tho Government Ohemists, aftor having analyzed all the principal brands in tho market, iu their reports placed tho Royal Baking Pow der at tho head of tho list for strength, purity, and wholosomeness, and thou sands of tests all over tho country havo furthor demonstrated tho fact that its qualities aro, in ovory respect, unrivaled. Keeping Cider. As I never saw my way of keoping cider in print, I will givo it to your read ors. Tako cidor freshly mado and boil and skim as long aa anything comes to tho top, hut don't boil moro than fifteen minutes; then bottlo and cork, but not seal. It will koep as long as ono wants it to koep, and it is better than when first mado. Mrs. J. R. M. STRICKLER BROS., Dealer In STOVES AND TINWARE I Especial pains taken with lie pairs of all Kinds.
