with stories of the wonderful productions

in the line of the siur kraut veg table
that would have made the respected G.
W. Ej.(j , feel liko chopping his head oil
with his own hatchet ia sheer envy ot
bfing unable to reach th; sublime height
of truthfulness to which the Whatcom
granger has attained. We lylieve it all ;
ot course we did. Wlten a man eomeR
up to you w ith 'an air f candor and a
club w hrk a bull clog with two rows of
pearly tteth looks up into your face with
a frank expression of trustfulness, you
ai verv ant to believe all that von are
tohl. We didn't :o much in'ml theii
tebing us about three cabbage head.-
that compb tely tilled a wagon box, be
cause we had just tried to take tuetiijk
with an anecdote about a Si-attle cabbage
that couldn't bt sfju,eezGil into a bu.diel
basket. Put when a man remarks inei
dent'y that he has come down to town
to buy a shotgun to sow his cabbage
seed with, an I you turn upon him with
a wild-eyed " cows in th:? qorn" sort of
a look, to whih he condescends the ex
planation that tho widest hand sowing
leaves tlie seeds too elosu together and
tlve cabbages come up and crojvd eaeh
other eight sided, like the cells of a
honey comb, one is like to lgi:i to
think he hasn't travaded as much as he
thought he had.
And when they take you out through
the grefn aisbs of the forest where the
a breezes play an organ tone ! sympho
ny through tal! cedtis and lUs tha,t wave
their plumed branches b.ick in slow time
to the solemn muse, and point you to
1 dsfited clearing, where a few shat
tered timber and the ruins of a chim
ney lar mute testimony ''of the happy
ho ne that once stod there, of tlie love
and teu lerness of the wife, tluprotec
tio i and care of the husband, ami the
joyousness of chijd life that ome made
this desolate spot sn Eden, and then tell
you that this was once th ram.be of a
tender-foot from the .Em si who, wiser
in his geueratwa thin the. cbiMren ot
Whatcom and despite, their vurning,
plauted a cabbage setd too near h's
hoii, and thit it sprung, up in a n'g'it,
is it wre, iii(l beeame n exceeding
wrreat vegtable, ani lo, in such and liour
f is he thought not th wind LU, rn.l
the ca'b;gi upor tin? hou-e, au I great

The plan is rt'inark-abh? not only-for its
ingenuity but ft-r its foisibility an 1 sim

many herds of cattle ; back of Whatcom
is a kfcke ; not far from tho coast of Al

is projKse! to excavate an even under

day, We noticed all along the road the
fruit trees Vere just loaded with blos
soms. At Mr. Benham's evtrylhing

visited the hottl of Mr. Pinckney, ami

and tirnven'fent. lie intends
soon; at least souie tiu in May to give
a Bill and also to open his hotel for
fumnier boarders, putting in a garden
for a plentiful supply of fresh vegetables.
Sr. Helen and Columbia City are loth
'well fixed-iu thu matter of hotels, and
we know of no pliees better adapted foi
summer resorts than they. There are
mountain: not afar oif, snlendid ibive.--,
rout-.'i.-mhing, chance for berrien, nlso, op
portunities, to hunt ib'er, iiu I feast the
eyes on scenes the most romantic of any
on this Coast. Mr. Bla.ke.sley and Mr.
Piuckney have spored no m-x(ens in the
matt?.- o: Id e', ar 1 dj.':-ve fall hous
