Always cheer on the men who go in for improvements; your portion of tlio cost will bo noth ing, onlv what is just,. Don't kick at any proposed necessary improvement because it is not at, your door, or for fear that vour taxes will be raided a dime. Don't throw stumblinir blocks in the way of your city ollicers; they are generally public spirited men and spend lots of time in the public inter est for which Ihey receive no remun eration. Don't use rubburjidiinips on your letter heads; that, is a ''dead givo away" on your own business and .... ii... i i. .it.... 1)11 MIU IUIVII.

If you owe the newspaper a dollar, or live dollars, or twenty-live cents, pav it if you can; (hero is no other force in the community which can do any thing like the samo amount of good for it as a newspaper. Don't get polities mixed up with your business; if you are a business man, don't lose the help that a newspaper can givo you because its politics are not your politics and by all means dont advertise merely to 'help tho printer along;" advertise to help your town and busi ness uloii'j;. Don't ask your editor to spend or 4100 a month publish ing a paper and not offer him your help. I'ul your share of help along with that ot your neighbors, and the aggregate in tho town will sustain tho paper. A FLA'i TE1UXG OUTLOOK. Tuere can be no doubt that this will prove an unusually prosperous year for the people of this stale, and par ticularly for tlno of the great Inland Knipiro. The crops are extremely Jarge, which will result in tho cotters of our agriculturists being unusually replete with tho "lllthy lucre" to the consequent prosperity of nil. The La (Urande (inzvltv presents the fid lowing llgures: "Ills a fair estimate to say that there will he shipped to Portland, this year, MM), 000 tons of wheat. This will bring at least per ton, and many well informed people think 10. Hut at !?:l.") per Ion it will amount to seventeen millions and i half dollars. There will be clear profit to the farm ers, out or tills vast, sum, alter paying expenses for labor, seven million and live hundred thousand dollars. That is quite ap accumulation from one source alone in one year, and this es timate is under rather than over the veal figures. Seven millions profit to farmers, beside the payment of wages which enriches u country, is a big profit in a year. When the crop pros pect over tho greater part of tho world is so poor, it will ho a great lit't to Orogou. The stock of broad-st tiffs in Kuropo, Asia ami, in fact, the world over, Is very slim, and prieos this year will be bettor than have been had in Oregon for many years. With good prices and good crops, what is to prevent prosperity? MVUiJUUiV ti:j:es. Tlio Women'. 6k Culture ttssocia- tiouof tlio United States, Mrs. ,1, Lu ens, president, and .Mrs. V.

Tho moisture luleu atmosphere of the Willamette valley, says the Even ing Democrat, is said to be tho finest in the world for tho manufacture of lint llax. A number of years ago a commissitm was sent iroin ireiaiiu. me of the most aduptiblo of couutrio for that manufacture, to ascertain the iet location for iis production. The onnnisMon vi-dledj all the possible rivals in tho world, and finally de eded that Oregon was the most fa vored land under tho sun for that en terprise.. Its even, cool temperature and western breezes coming freighted with soft nioisturo from the bosom of the Pacilic. were calculated to pro duce the best, libre. in fact, there is no country in the world so happily situated in that regard as tho Willam ette vallov, and it is not unlikely i', will soon furnish (he linen of (he worid. Already an Indiana flax cul- turist lias begun negotiations with .Mr. John Crawford, ot AHmny, for his canal and water works. It may bo he will soon complete the pur chase. If hedoes, ho is prepared to invest .200,O0O more in a factory for lint llax at Albany. When begun it will be the inauguration of one of the greatest industries evei brought to Oregon', and will tend to largely en hance our material prosperity. ' A FEW FACTS' The idea which has prevailed in the .astern states for many years bogot- en by the golden days of California's arly history that fortunes are accu mulated without effort in the west, is erroneous. tiiosu who acquire wealth in Washington or Oregon, like the same class in other states, only reap tho legitimate reward of persover- iuu iudustrv and continued solf-sacri- tice. There are no twenty dollar pieces, chunks of gold or silver lying around loose in this northwest . which only require a slight effort to pick up and possess. Money i- (ho only rep resentative of value here, the same as everywhere else, and ti e value is es timated by the amount of labor or sacrifice required to furnish an equiv alent. This country has an timmr passed climate for mildness of winters and coolness of summers , and tho re sources are rich and almost boundless but the soil will not yield spontaneous ly , or the mines give forth their gold and silver without labor, and he who conies to (his portion of the northwest and expects to become rich without displaying the qualities which have re sulted almost everywhere in the accu mulation of wealth, will bo sadly dis appointed. This region, for its de velopment, needs toilers, who are not afraid to soil their hands, and who are willing to earn an honest liveli hood. Dtnuncutszumim'Kxuaiui CEOSSED ' WHEAT.
