Tho Willamotto University, founded
nt n tiuio when Snlom wns scarcoly n
town site, has had the opportunity to
grow with tlio city and impress its work
upon tho souioty. For morala and high
state of Christina society, Salem is far
in advanco of most towns of its slzo.
Tho oflicial position of so many of its
rosidents, in county and State, rondcr
an increased culturo to society. Many
of the State educational institutions nro
located hero, with their officers and
tonchors, which circumstanco add an
othor advantago to tho location of n
University. Tho buildings aro imme
diately in town, and places of business
aro of easy access. Tho campus on
which tho main building is situated
contains about oightoon ncros. Tho

rcsidont studonts a cordial wclcomo to
their homes, thoir churches and society,
so that, although among strangers at
first, they nro soon inado to feci that
thoy aro among friends desiring and
striving for thoir best interests. All cir
cumstances combino to mnko Salom the
best Univorsity town on tho const. It is
not too large so as to absorb tho inter
ests of a University in its business af
fairs, and is not so small ns to bo unablo
to accommodato nil its interests.

The following preparation applied to
the surface will prevent any rusting on
plows or any other metal surfaces. Melt
one ounce of rosin in a gill of lin-otd
oil, and when hot mix with two quart
of kioeuo oil. This can bo kept on
hand and applied in a moment with a
brush or rag to the metal surface of any
tool that is not going to be used for a
few days, preventing any rust and sav
ing much vexation when the time comes
to use it again.

Mr. C. Cunningham, of Fort Klam

handsomo spotted colt, as evenly and

old, and camo in over tho mountains
