On February 1 2th and 14th the third annual convention of horti culturistswill be held at the Oregon Agricultural College, this city. During the two days' session there will be entertaining talks and lec tures on horticultural topics, follow ed by discussions, that will beyond doubt be most instructive. Here tofore great success has attended these meetings and there will be a good attendance this year in all probability. The railroad compa nies will give the usual reduced rates on the certificate. A. C. Neilson, of Wisconsin, has closed a deal with G. C. Millet for his l,5C0-acre farm near Junction City. The transaction represents $50,000.

The new comers will engage largely in dairy ing, and it probable that a cream ery will be established. Mr. Neil son, their representative, states that the farm will be divided into small tracts and every ' acre bf made to yield all that is possible. A small portion will b,e 4 aside for a churcfti The regular Short Course at the Oregon Agricultural College will close with a special Fruit Growers' Convention far Oregon, as in previ ous years. We go to press earlier than usual this time and cannot announce the proarame but know that Dr. Witbyoombe and Prof. Lake have been at work for some time seouring papers and addresses for the occasion. The dates fixed J for the convention are February 13 and 14. Special rates will no doubt be givea by the Southern Pacifio Company on the certificate plan. Corvallis is a central point for Western Oregon, and the opportu nity of seeing what the College and Experiment Station are doing, and of meeting the membeis of the Ex periment Station Staff is a strong attraction. The convention at Cor vallis affords an unusually good opportunity, also, for fruit growers to rail the attention of the Experi ment Station authorities to mat ters which need scientific investiga tion.

A newspaper is, not infallible, and if those acquainted with the facts in any case, through lackot inteiestor neglect, fail to apprise the news paper man he has to rely upon whatever Eource of information he can find. Mr. Alex Rennie has resigned his position in the establishment of Nolan & Callahan and will leave shortly for McMinnville, where he will take the management of The Farmers and Grangers store of that citv. "No better man could have been secured for the position," said Mr. Nolan yesterday. This is a pretty tribute from the head of the farm in whose employ Mr. Rennie has been for the past eight years While regretting his departure, his many iriends here will be pleased to hear of his advancement. A Hanlord, Uahtornia paper, recently received by S. L. Shedd, of this city, contains an obituary of the late Orin Belknap, who died at Hanford January 9, 1902. Mr. Belknap was born in New York in 1815. He moved to Ohio in 1S35, and was married in that state to Miss Nancy Starr. In 1847, with his family he came to Oregon and settled 'at what is now Bellfoun tain. Here he lived until the late 60'8, when he moved to California. Mr. Belknap was the father of 11 children, one of tbe survivors being Airs. Rachel Walters of Monroe. He was an ardent christian, and a man of great stiength and nobility of character.

The object ' has been to make as complete a list as possible from the information at hand, of the avian species which have been taken and observed throughout the state, with the localities from which each species has. been reported, the names of observers, and their notes. The notes aim to cover brieily the relative abundance, time of migra tion and nesting and food habits, although in the latter line . appar ently but little work has been done in the state.

Both parties are former residents f Corvallis: The weather in Dawsen Janu- ar 2nd was ail that eouid De wished for at this season of the year. They had a cold spell for a couple of days in the latter part of December, when Ihe thermometer went down to 65 degrees below zero. Since then it moderated considerably, so that the mercury stands pretty steady at 35 degrees- below, which is considered, very,' reason able and pleasant weather. ' Among other items sent by Thayer is one relating, to the robbery of a gambling house, where two or three mon went in and stole $1,400 of the game's money and escaped, so far as heard from. Thayer says that in about two years more Dawson's star of glory will have set, as by that time it will-be an easy -matter to get into the country at a com paratively small expense, and the country will be overrun with people who have just money enough to reach the Yukon. That will cause a reduction of wages, l nose who are in tnere now are preparing themselves against such evil day. Con Gerhard has the finest line of Valentines ever brought to Cor vallie. See them. .
