TimusiiAV Fobrunry 21, 1887.
February is yet snowing nnd
wintry, far moro than usual for Oregon,
but mo far tho winter has dono no hnnn.
For n fow days wo hnd molting days nnd
frosty nightB after tho ground was Imro
nnd wheat was thrown out to somo ox
tout and roots exposed on somo laud
Hnd this continued a fow days longer
tho result would have boon disastrous to
tho wheat crop but with warm ruins to
let the plant will root well again.
I no prospoct for tno wheat crop m
good throughout tho Columbia valley.
KiiKt of tho mountains tboro hit boon
snow and rain fall, and tho snow madon
good blanket for tho growing wheat.
Tho moisture is sufliotent to insure good
orops, with tho usual spring showers.
Tho foreign wheat market is weak
nnd prices are not firm. Tho season
for shipping to Kuropo is past for 1837,
And it remains to bo seen what tho
homo demand will be. Salem mills
drop ono cent n bushel on their price.
They have given 72 couts for a month
and now give 71 cents. Kvery ono looktj
to spring for a solution of tko F.uroponn
war question and if there is continued
peace wo shall e low prices continue.
Stock i tlying by thousands in Mon
tana nnd Wyoming and soma parts of
Idaho, but is doing fairly on Eastern
Oregon ranges. Somo lossea art occur
iug in this valley and there must bo
considerable suffering, ns tho supply of
food is not nbundant. Those who keep
stock must put up food nnd keep
enough on hand to too their animals
well through March,
Tho rntigo of motitions for wheat is
r'1.30$UGJ por cental.
Oats, 18)60 cent is tho range, with
no ehinuionts. Ctioiuo vill bring more.
It is thought tho valley holds enough
to fully supply local dotiiands.

CAKE OF STOCK III WINTER.
W'n Imvo heard of young cattlo dying
closo to town, supposed to bo on ac
count nf not gottitig water. Sinco tho
first of this month (hero has boon times
when miow nnd ico covered tho ground ;
nnd whero no running water or springs
nro found stock must often suffer aud
die.
Wo hear of sheep, cattlo and horses,
dying ovory winter, supposed to bo
owing to dry feed and blind stnggora.
Any band of sheep will dio on timothy
hay alono in tho best of wintors. That
is well established. Wo nil of us know,
or should know, that dry feed is un
wholesome to stock without 8omothing
green. Plenty of water nnd salt will
frequently carry stock through, hut it is
safest to Imvo some vegetables to givo
them when wintors aro sovoro, Thoro
is nothing hotter than potatoes nnd all
animals will eat them and thoy will
help dissolve dry food and koop stock
from binding up with insolublo dry
stuff" that cannot digest and pass away
without somo aid for tho digestion. It
is common for sheep woll fed to die,
when a handful of oats every day will
save thorns but turnips, cabbage, pota
toes and apples will answer tho purposo
and overy farmer should grow somo
such stud' to havo on hand for winter
focd, aud should save nil tho small nnd
impcrfoct Yegotables to uso in caso of
need. There is novor u winter when it
will not bo profitable to feed such arti
cles, for stock will rolJHh green and suc
culent food as a change aud thrivo on
it.
For fifteen ycara wo can go back to
our illos and show that wo have given
this same admonition' to farmers. If
they had heeded or remoinbcrod and
practiced it there would in that time
havo been hundreds of thousands savod
to thorn and to tho wealth of Oregon
In growing crops an aero or so planted
to some succulent vcgotnblo to feed to
stock will yield moro profit, it well used
afterwards, than any part of tho farm
crop.
Tho Century has n long comprehen
sive nrtioio on Lincoln uis tiro from
boyhood till death, with engravings of
nil tho houses that ho occupied nt
various times. It is a story ono never
tires of hearing. "Tho Relative Strength
nnd Weakness of Nations" comes pat
just now when Europe ncoms on tho
ove of war. "Tho Hundredth Man" is
an odd sort, which loses nothing from
its originality. Tho Century should be
found on every table. Tho February
number is especially iutcrcdting.
Tho Hrooklyn Mngiuine is n late pub
lication issued in that city. It is a fam
ily magazine. Tho matter included
within iU pagos is of n character of
which ono might do for ''Sunday lead
ing" for it is pure and elovating. Mrs.
Doochcr has contributed to it in pre
vious numbers. II. W. lleechcr, with
other noted divines, contribute sermons
and religious discourses from texts
found in the lliblo. Sufficient other
miscellaneous matter combine to make
tho Brooklyn Magazine a desirable fam
ily paper.
