A number of farmers in Oregon and Wssbiugtou aie experimenting in raising broom corn, and it pays very well. Oue farmer in Washington raised thre acres of broom corn last year, and harveated enough to manufacture 120 dozen of good brooms, which sell in the market for $3 50 per dozen. At this rate the gross eai mugs on his crop amonnt to $140 per acre. On this basis '25 acres would yield ttia farmer $3500 gicsa per year, provided he manufactured hia brooms. The net profit would be large. News comes from Dayton that when tbe jury returned tLeir verdict io the Ed Hid n.oider case f assault and battery, every one but tbe priioner and his attorneys were sp. eohless with astonishment. Tbe Walla Walla Statesman is informed that this case snd others out of whicb it grew, bas cost Whitman -county over '$100,000, and not one of the defendants has been convicted of a graver offense than assault. It ia learned that at Garfield, wbere the murder was committed, tbe citizens are very indig nant, and at Colfax much indignation is manifested, the finding of a jury being de nounced as a travesty on justice.

The Dalles string band, under the lead ership of Professor Birgfeld, and Miss Hoi lister at the piano, opened the exer cises with a selection of music, well ren dered. Or. G. E. Sanders then statea the object of the meeting, and Mr. John Micbell de livered tbe address of welcome. He ex tended a cordial greeting to tbe members of the society and visitors, and spose of the possibilities and probabilities of the Inland Empire in regard to the d .velop ment of the fruit industry, closing his re marks with exteuding the freedom ot the city to the visitors. Dr. Card well, the president of the so ciety, respooded, and expressed to the cit izens of The Dalles the tbaoks of the so ciety for the generous welcome extended to them. He spoke of the high stao liog of the fruit grown ia this vicinity; that it bad received acknowledgments from many horticultural exhibits, and through tbe efforts of Mr. Einile Schanno had taken premiums at tbe world's fair in Chicago. At tbe close of his remarks the band rendered a cho ce piece of music "Hun garian Dance" (Brahms,) which was re ceiyed with applause by tbe audience. Mrs. S. L. Brooks was then introduced and read a well-written essay en flowers, which was full of excellent ideas and beautiful thoughts, and clothed in the choicest poetical language. The next selection was "The Twilight Hour," and it was heartily cheered. It was exceptionally well rendered, and was a rare treat to lovers of music Mr. Henry E. Dosch then read a very able paper on the "Nicaragua Canal and its Probable Benefit to tbe Oregon Fruit Grower." He was tbe delegate trom the Portland Chamber of Commerce to tbe Nicaragua canal convention which met in tbe city of New Orleans November 30ih and December 1, 1892, aod as such had given careful study to the subject. Mr. Dosch quoted briefly from bis re marks before the convention, setting forth the large export trade of the Pacific coast,and the necessity for cheaper freight rates. "Tbe present route of our wheat product," he said, "is 17,000 miles from Portland, Oregon, to Liverpool, and to Havre or the North sea it is 18,500 miles. Five-sixths of this shipment goes to tbe United Kingdom aod one-sixth to the continent. The Nicaragua canal would furnish the means of exporting this in vessels of 6000 tons burden, which would carry it so cheap that every farmer in Oregon would reap a large reward io tbe difference of our present and future freight rates." If tre canal were in op eration tbe wheat which costs now 45 rents a bushel for shipment could proba bly be made for 12 or 15 cents. It would open up new mantels for our salmon ex ports, aud by tbis means the south, mid dle west and South American countries would be furnished with a cheap food supply. . The salmon pack is placed at 800,000 cases, and the freight on these is $1 psr iuO pounds,and on the entire ship ment $560,000. With tbe canal completed, this woaid cost not more than 40 ceats per 100 pounds, or a saving of more than eoe-ball. The saving on Iruit exports would be much larger, and where $4&0 and $550 are charg.d now cold storage steamers would take apples, pears and other fruits to eastern point for $200 and $130 respectively. Mr. Dosch showed conclusively the advantage of this great improvement,and his words were listened to with the closest attention. Tbe paper by Mr. R. D. Allen, of Bil verton, was postponed until the afternoon session today, and tbe band favored the audience with "Picadore" (aoussa) and the meeting adjourned, every person ap pearing well pleased with the evening's entertainment The program of the afternoon session today was not carried out tully. Hon. T. R. Coon, ot- Hood River, was absent, and also Col. Babcock, of Walla "alia. A discussion was had on fruit drying and evaporating, in which the president, Dr. Card well, R. D. Allen, of SilverUn; W. C. Davidson, of, The Dalles; and Mr. Brown, of Eugene, took part. A great many pertinent Suggestions were made, and which if reduced to practice would be of great utility. Mr. S. A. Clarke, sec retary ol the Northwestern Fruit Grow ers' Association, read a very lull report of tbe proceedings, and oflered some very good bints and suggestions. Arrested and Held. Mr. fl. M. Bollinger, a detective ot Boise, Idaho, caused tbe arrest yesterdt) evening of James Morrison, who is charged with the crime ot abducting Mrs. J. B. Brown, of Boise, and four children. Morrison lived for a short time in tin Brown family at Boise, aud succee led in inducing Mrs. Brown to leave her hus band aod take with her the four chiidrej. Mr. and Mrs. Brown lived very b.ippty together until Morrison became ac quainted with them, and appeared to uavo complete coulrol of the wife. Sir. Bollinger followed them to Pendleton, where Morrison pretended to practice medicine; but finding- himself trucked Morrison left and came to this city yes terday ' morning, where he registered his and Mrs. Brown's names as Jas Morrisou aod wife. The detective followed thorn immediately, and they had not been here but a few hours until tbey were arresied by an officer. To take them back for tbe crime alleged will requre requisition papers. ailssins;. A Portland paper aaya that on the last trip of the steamer Elwood up tne Willam ette, William Armstrong, the second en gineer of that boat, was lost overboard hile tbe boat was making the trip from Oregon City to Salem. Nu one saw the young man tall overboard, bnt bis sudden disappearance and otber oircunatances leave no doubt as to his fate. Daring tbe afternoon, Armstrong was on duty in tbe engine room. Tbe chief engineer ruturoed to the room after a abort absence and missed Armstrong from his post. Tbe oil can nsed in oiling the machinery was also missing and Armstrong's cap wa found lying on the machinist's bench, bat oo trace of the young man could be found. Tbe most plausible iutereooe in connection with bis disappearance is tbat he went out on the fan tail to oil up tbe bearings about the wheel, . lost his footing and was preci pated into the Willamette. Tbat he could not swim is a fact verified by his own statement to that effect, made to Captain Lee a few days ago. The aeasion -last eveniog at the couit house was called to order by the president, Dr. Ordweil, at 8 o'clock, a-id tbe first number was an overture by Prof. Birgfeld at the piano and Mr.' Hen y Burcbtuff O i the vii lin. This was well no ived, and was a fitting prelu'e to the intensely inter esting exercises of the meeting. Dr. G. E. Senders then iutroduced the sun jail of more etriogent laws in favor of horticultural lawe. He . was a learner in the business of fruit growing, and was con stantly being educated into the require ments for success. "Ever since Mother Eve ptrtook of thefiuitot the trie of Knowl edge cf G od and Evil man bad been doomed to earn h i liyiug bv tbe sweat of bis brow, and thai is what fruit-growes must do But in Or.-g m thev labored uo der raauy disadvantages. - Iuaect peMs are deitruying the product, and the e is o lw on tbe attiuts bo.k to enfonw a ra nady.

The doctor exhibited great earseatness and s ncerity iu bis ad dress, and the attention paid to his remarks showed that those oresaots were io sym pathy with the gi't of bis r marks. . Rev. O. D. Taylor waa the next speaker, and ia a few re-narks stated thit th law wa sufficiently strong he tbouhr, if it wn enforced. We should see that the prov -sions of the statute are made biadiug upon persons engaged in the industry. Mr. Dosob thought tbe statute was all right so far as it wsut, but it did not reach tbe evil of which complaiut is made. The old law still stand, bat it amounts to but little. Rev. O. D. Taylor, in answer, said we must educate the men we aena to the .legis lature in regard to the reqiirement of hor ticulture. Very few mm understood the importance of the industry, and how much its proper development would increase the wealth of communities.: Hon. James Heodershott. of Union, said the men we sent to the legislature wera slaves of party. They go to Salem like bell-wetners and follow tbe leader. Tbey re simply the tools of the party that elects them. Mr. H. A. Clarke, secretary of the North- western Fruit Growers' Association, said tbe society wbich he represented is attempting to procure uniform legislation in this por tion of the country for the extinction of fruit pests, and he hoped they would be successful. In speaking of spraya he highly recommended Loiidun Purple instead of Paris Green. ' He had tried both, aud the latter had always Droved a failure. It will require -constant work, he said, to keep these pests down, and our labots must be unremitting. - Dr. Blalock. of Walla Walla, woo was given tbe next number on tbe program, be ing absent, Mrs. Collins favored with a se- lesti n on the piano. Hon. T. R. Coon, of Hood River, being absent, bis paper on the cultivation of strawbetries was read by Mr. Brown, ot Eugene. The essay was very exhaustive of tbe ' subject and treated ot every de partment in detail. In strawberries, the writer said, there weie both health aud 'wealth, aud it was properly tbe stepping stone to horticulture. These berries pro' doce crop quicker than otber fruit, but lequire constant care and attention. Do the right thing in the right place is a good moto to fillow. Strawberries are great eaters and drinkers, aud shonlJ be fed ac cordiugly. Irrigition is absolutely neceti- ary at Hood River; but this must be done by ditches, and not by ft odinyr spray ing. The latter will cause tbe leaves and fruit of th plant t) shrivel Then they should be fed by fertilized soil, and this should be done by the free use of manures The manner of transplanting tbe young growths to the soil was described fully. and minute direct.oos given regarding ship ments. Beriies should be handled as little as possible. Constant handling not only aoils but softens them. It is also important af ter picking that they should be kept in a cool place, and tbe ground around the house sprinkled well to keep the dust down. The enay waa very replete io all p ssible information regarding strawberries, both in their cultivation and adaptation of soils,snd also in the most iff active manner of ship ping. An instrumental duet by Misses Schsnno snd Schmiut was well rendered, and was loudly encored. The paper of E'inrr Stearns, of Salt Lake, Utah, on the Prepaiatiou of Soils for Horti cultural Purposes by Dynamite was read by Mr. T. A. Hudson, who srated that he had but little practical knowledge in fruit-grow ing or tree planting, but the author of the essay, Mr Stearns, was a former resident of Oregon, and had giyen considerable at tention to the latter. Mr. Stearns p efaced bis piper by the statement that nourish ment should be given to the roots of trees, as these are the avenues through which sus tenance is received. The tendrils will reich laterally aud horizontally for moisture, aod it is always a good plan to loosen the ground surrounding the trees. Successful fruit-growers plow detply, sometimes tbe plow g ling down two feet into the ground. Tbe ground may be loo-eued eight and ten feet deep by means of dynamite, aod the roots will receive the benefit of all preoip itatno. Dynamite will make trees produce earlier, heoaBse the soil is loosened around the roots, and the bait opportunity are afforded for receiving all possible nourish ment. It may be used without danger, and the 30 per caot grade wa. reoomnieodd. Tbe method of using the explosive wis mi nutely described, and the best aeaaon was stated to be the fall. This is a new depart ure in hortioulto-e.but from the facts stated by Mr. Stearns we have not much doubt that it would ba successfu'. Tbe following resolution was introduced by Mr. Williams and unanimously passed by the society: Jiesolved. Th-it tbe members of the Oregon Stat? Horticultural society hereby express their gratification and tha'ough a ipreuia- tion of the many courtesies which have been shown them at this meeting by the hospitable citizens and fruit growers of Tbe Dalles and vicinity, particularly in provid ing so pleassnt a plae of meeting; in the artistio music which has added so greatly to the enjoyment of the ses-ioo ef our meeting; and in tbe opportunity afforded for visiting the orchards and vineyards which will soon do so much for tbe prosper ity of the city. " A resolution was introduced by M. Dosch and passed endor iog tbe action of the Northwestern Fruit-Growers' Assooittion in regard to the enactment of uniform laws tor protection against fruit pests. A notice of a change in the constitution of the society was given by Mr. Frank L"e, changing the sessions of theeociety to scmi annually inatesd of quarterly. This was laid over for action until the Dext meeting. Ashland was designated ss tne next place of meeting, and the second Tuesday in July as the time. . A resolution waa introduce 1 and passed extending the gratitude of the community to the efficient officers of the society, for the interest they have taken in the subject of horticulture and the manner in which tbey have conducted th convention. The preside ut aououueed the following committee on Marketing Fruits: Willis Brown, of Purtlind; Charles B. Moores, Salem, aud E. Schanno, Toe D dies. A cornet aolo waa executed by Mr. J. P.
