A Valuable Receipt.
In view of the fact that there is a sort
of disease amongst horses in various
parts of the county, called "blind
staggers," B. F. Ramp knowing of a
remedy in possession of his father who
lives in the Willamette valley, wrote for,
and received it, which we pub'.i&h for
the benefit of all who may have occasion
to use it :
THE RECEIPT.
One ounce Aires, one ounce of Asa
fcetida. Camphor Gum about the size of
a common pea. Mix with flour. This
for one dose. Give two doses the first
day, morning or evening. One the second
day and turn out on green pasture when
practical. Plaindealtr, 24.
The following lines were written and
dedicated to the new postofflee, Tigardville,
iu the southern part of this county, by a
boy 17 years of age :
Now I shall, I an, I wilt.
Speak a word for Tigardville ;
I can't help bat say what's true.
When I see what we can do.
We can show a Orange hall here.
We can show two churches near;
All within onr city line.
Everything looks grand and fine.
We have got a store in town.
Which has won for ns renown;
This is why, and very trne,
A postoftice from it grew.
Store, postofflee, and a hall,
We are fixed for one and all;
Ev'ryhody likes onr site.
This is why our town's so bright.
Any oue that lives in town.
Ne'er has need to make a frown;
Girls and boys are good and true.
Men and women are so, too.
Men and women, girls and boys.
Never want in any way of joys;
And they say they never will
I,eave our dear old Tigardville.

Editor Independent: Your Farm
ington correspondent, of the 23d inst
must have been mistaken in saying there
was a misunderstanding in the church
at Farmington. There is only one
church here, viz., the First Christian,
and everything is in peace and harmony,
and no misunderstandings have occurred
and the church is prospering, with Rev.
G. Rich, of Damascus, Oregon, as pastor,
and Bros. C. Jack and Ji". C. Richardson,

Editor Independent : In your last
issue, your correspondent from Forest
Grove threw out the insinuation that
others who took chickens to the Poultry
Show at Portland aud received a majority
f the premiums, did not raise the
chickens they exhibited. Now allow ing
that some one who exhibited chickens at
the show did not raise them, and yet
received the credit for it, this seems to
me a very small matter to complain of
and it matters not who raised the
chickens so long as they were put on ex
hibition and entitled to the premiums
received. The shew wss get ten up for
the purpose of bringing out the best
poultry exhibit possible in the state, and
if the owners saw fit to send their chickens
to the show by an agent, they were at
liberty to do so, and it seems entirely out
of place for any to feel sore because thev
did not get more prizes. And in the
future, If any one wishes to win a larger
number of premiums they should take a
finer lot of chickens. Rooster.

enclosed a few items, which will prob
ably be of interest.
Yesterday the barn of Mr. Doinier,
near Ames Chapel, was destroyed by fire,
tegether with two wagons, harness and
a quantity of hay and other feed. He
had been raking the barn-yard, and went
Into the house, when one of his little
sons set fire to one of the piles of rub
bish, which communicated to the barn.
The neighbors saw the fire, and in ten
minutes twenty or more of them were
present with buckets, and prevented the
spread of the flames to his dwelling and
other buildings near by. The loss will
aggregate $000 or $700; no insurance.
He has the sympathy of the community.
The K. of L. public meeting at Union
hall, on the 22d int., was a success, a
targe crowd being pre--ut. In the foie
noon, Mr. Griffiths, of Portland, gave
an interesting lecture on the objects and
purposes of the Knights of Labor. Also,
the assemblage was favored with instru
mental and vocal music by Misses Eliz
abeth and Louise Tucker; the rendition
was pleasing. A most sumptuous din
ner was spread by the sisters of the K.
of L. and Butte Grange. After every
body had been served, Mr. Hayes, lec
turer of the state Grange, gave a review
of the work of the Grange, its triumphs
and struggles, and gave many most con
vincing arguments why the farmers
should be organized. Mr. Hayes is an
able speaker, and understands his sub
ject thoroughly. He aroused a deep in
terest in the movement.
