Honmoutu Corresuondonco MoN'Momi, Or., Nov. 1, 1880, 1-Mitor Willamotto Farmer: This little villinge of throo hundred or more inhabitaiits, is situated near tho footdiilla of tho coast range, in Polk county, and is connected with other points by tho narrow gnugo railroad and stage linos, Its early founder, Mr. J. E. Murphy, now sloops in tho silent city, hut tho improM ot his forethought still lives. Tho character of this place is such that it allows no Baloons.

Tho building in which tho Normal school is conducted was formerly used by tho Christian collogo, onco a Hour- ishim; institution, but tho college went down and tho Stato Normal school was located hero and occupies tho collogo building, and now stands as one of Or egon's leading institutions of loarning. It is to bo hoped that our legislaturo nt its coming session may hco fit to divide some of tho treasure with tho Normal. Our school opened with flattering suc cess for tho ensuing year, and at present writing thoro are about 210 ntudouts enrolled, 20 of wnom aro from Marion county.

Trial bottlci froo at Port li Son's drug atoro, Salom. 0 Bait Fork Diet. "Tho days of salt pork as tho princi pal meat for farmers fortunately nro past, and with them impaired digestion that under tho old diot was tho sourco ot innumerable ills. Wo clip tho abovo from nn exchange, and whilo wo also rcjoico that salt pork is not now nn ex clusive moat diet of farmers, wo cannot Bay that wo beliovo that "impaired di gestion" is any less frcquont among far mers and fanners' wivos than in tho days gono by. Neither do wo beliovo that what there was should bo ascribod to salt pork. "Sab. pork on farmers' ta bios" is n chronic thomo for somo writ ters and thoy dopict it as most unwholo some, unsavory meat that can bo pro duced, and seem to think that farmers can and should go to tho butcher's cart for their daily supply of moat. Tho truth is, most farmers' wives, whou they cook Bait pork, know how to prepare it so it is reliehcd by tho mom- hers of tho family, and no ill effects aro over noon from its frequent uso. A pop ular farm writer recently said that tho "daily call of tho moat-cart was a thief at tho farmers' door." Nino-tenths of tho farmers cannot afford to ro'y upon tho supply of fresh meat during tho en tiio year. Neither is it necessary. Dy tho exercise of a littlo forethought and somo care tho farmer's table can bo sup plied with a variety of meat and fish from his own larder, and with a good bill of health attached.
