BHEEP AND WOOL NOTES.
No line of farm animal industry, says
an exchange, has made the substantial,
marked progress iu the last six years that
bas sheep.
As mutton producers the Chevoits, al
though very hardy and prolifio, have a
tendency to lightness iu the fore-quarters.
They are great rustlers.
The most successful sheep feeders are
nut actual sheep raisers ; nor are they,
as a rule, farmers in Buy sense of the
word. They are, however, successful
business men who know the sheep trade
from a oommercial standpoint, and the
best methods of handling tne business.
Of these methods few sbeep raisers have
the least conception or knowledge. All
our old methods and theories of profit
able sheep raising have failed when
brought to tests of the last few years.
If those who have made money with
sbeep were to giye the reason for their
success they would say that tbe chief fac
tor was the cure they gave the flock.
Successful sheep meu are a auit in say
iug that, no mutter v. bat breed is kept
or for what purpose, painstaking oare
in great and small things is tbe only
ay to make sheep husbandry profitable.
The question fur the beginner to settle
is whether bis oircumstances are such
that he can give his oare and he is so
constituted lhat he will take pleusure in
doing it. Otherwise be will find more
money in some other branch of stock
raising for which he and his surround
ings are better suited.
CATfLE ITEMS.
Montana oattle shipments for the year
are 195,000 head: 62,000 have already
been marketed. Tbey averaged the
ranchmen 838 a head.
Mixed grasses ato better for stock
than a single variety. No matter - how
valuable any particular grasses may be.
or how large the yield, tbe stock will
thrive better when fed on a variety.
The individual preferences for oattle dif
fer and they will at all times accept a
change of food which promotes appetite
and thrift.
Some people maintain that Durham
oattle are not good milkers, but V. E
Bill, who bas a fins bird of shorthorns,
holds a different view, says the Husford,
(Cal.) Journal. Recently, iu an inter
view with a Journal reporter, he stated
that during the previous week he bad
been milking sixteen bead of cows,
, hieu bad nothing to eat but alfalfa. Of
these sixteen bead of cows, tour are due
to calf in Deoember and two are heifers,
jet daring tbe week referred to Mr. Hill
made 53 rolls of butter and sold 180
pounds of milk to tbe cheeae factory, be
sides what his family oonsumed. Fig
uring the 189 pounds of milk as three
and a half rolls of butter, wbicbit would
no doubt have made, would amount to
fifty-six and a half rolls of butter, or 113
pounds, made by the milk given by bis
cows, or an average of a little over one
pound a day from each oow. Cows that
will average one pound of butter a day
are not to be sneered at, and a herd tbut
will produce that is worth having.
LABOE WBEAT FOB. BKED.
Experiments reoenlly made, says
Bell's Weekly Messenger, appear to show
tbe advantage gained by tbe use of the
larger grains of wheat for seed. Seed
wheat fully matured was selected out of
one bin, and by sifting, two li ts of seeds
were taken, one extremely large, the oth
er small. Tbe large weighed 63.9 lbs
per bu., the Bmall only 40.5 lbs, a differ
ence of more than fifty per cent. Each
lot of seed was divided into four sepa
rate parcels and four separate sowings
were made. The land was good wheat
land, but nut specially manured. The
large seeds sprouted the quiokest, made
the best growth, was taller, and on the
average made 10 bushels per aore more
tban the small seed, The advantages
of the large seed were greater rapidity
of growth and development of crop early
in tbe season, greater ield of graiu anil
of straw, better weight and better qual
ity of grain for milling Asieethat will

"ALL BIGHT I ST. JACOBS OIL DID IT.'
IT CAN BE DONE.
Heppner Can Have Waterworks That
Pay Interest on the Investment.
Below the Gazette publishes, except
tn am minor Darts, the report of
Civil Engineer Oliver on the subject of
a water supply for Heppner. Ibis pa
per was uot aware that the report w.mli.
tie made public till aoted upon by oui
ounoil. supposing it to be the privatt
property of the committee on fire am'
water, till their report was mnue to tna
body. Inasmuoh as tins is noi me oase,
we give the same publicity , with a fe
0 irrectious as it appeared in our contem
porary :
To the Mayor and members ol tbi
Council of Heppner, Oregor. : Uentlt
men: Iu pursuance of a request made
by your honorable body, I have made
examination and Burveys for a water
supply for the town of Heppner, Ore
gon, and respectfully submit tbe follow
ing report:
The various places of which I will
make mention, are so well kuowr to jou
all that I will simply designate them all
bv name.
An abundant supply of water could
doubtless be obtained from some of the
mountain streams, but their great dis
tance from Heppner and the consequent
enormous cost of a pipe Hue necessary
for the oooveyanoe of the water prohib
its the consideration of a supply from
this souroe at this time.
I have concluded that the only prac
ticable means for securing a sufficient
supply for all purposes will be from the
springs near Heppuer, and when tbe
town iuereases in population so that this
supply is insufficient, a supplemenetary
may be obtained from wells sunk
deep enough for the purpose.
The cost of pumping from wells is
quite an item and as long as a supply oan
be obtained from tbe springs, should not
be resorted to.
The springs that I have examined
are three in number.
The Rector springs, with a discharge
of 60,000 galloDS per twenty four hours;
the Hughes spring, with a discharge of
25,000 gallons per twenty-four hours and
the Bruudage spring, with a discharge
of 15,000 gallons per twenty-four hours.
Of these the Rector springs are the on
ly ones worth considering, as the Hughes
spring is Bn inferior quality of water and
the Brundage spring of iusiflkient dis
charge. ' ' .
The Reotor springs at tbVtent time
furnish 60,000 gallons af'gooirfqnvUty of
oold, dear water during each twenty
four hours and I am assured by persons
living near them that the present dis
ohargs is fully as small as has ever be
fore been known.
This amount of water (60,000 gallous)
would allow sixty gallons per day for
each inhabitant of a town of a thousand
people. A majority of the cities of the
Uuited States do not have this much per
inhabitant, while other cities use and
waste three times as mnoh.
I thiuk by careful management, sixty
thousand gallons per day would be suf
ficient for Heppner for some time, and
as before remarked an addi iooat supply
oould be obtained from wells.
1'be Reotor sorings are at au elevation
of 187 feet above Main street in Heppner,
and by building a reservoir at a point
110 feet above Main street, a four-ioob
pipe would be more than large enough
to carry the discharge of the springs to
tbe reservoir.
I think it would be a good plan to use
this size of pipe, however, ac fungus
growtus are liable to occur in pipei
which obstruot tbe flew of water, and
also by building a large storage reservoir
boldiug, say four hundred thousand gal-
lons.it oould iu the spring of the year when
there is plenty of water runniag m Hin
ton creek, be filled and allowed to stand
as a protection against fire. This
amount of water would supply two fire
hydrants running steadily for twenty
tour bourer
If at any time the water in this reser
voir should become diminished, it could
be re-filled from the ordinary flow of the
pipes and the population of the town be
Oompehed to goon a short allowance of
water until it was de.
Bv adhering to this plan the town
would always be pretty seourely protect
ed from fire.
The water for city and domestic use
should not be allowed to ruu in this reser
voir, but into a smaller one holding, say
fifty thousand gallons so that the supply
ould always be fresh and pure.
At the head works considerable ex
cavation would be necessary to cleau
not tha vegetable matter around the
springs, and if bed-rock is not too deep
it would probably be well to excavate to
it as the flow of water might be some
what increased thereby.
Around the springs a cement brick or
stone wall should be built so that the
oreek water oould be exoluded and only

I was confined to bed ; could not
walk from lame back; suffered 3
months; doctors did not help; 3
so much of it allowed to run into tht
head-works as would be required to kee
the storage reservoir filled.
This four-inch pipe from tbe bead
works to the reservoir should be of
wrought iron, it being tbe cheapest, and
tbe pipe for tbe oity distribution should
be cast iion to allow their being tapped
by service pipes, as this oould uot safely
be done with wrought iron pipes.
The storage reservoir could be exoava
ted iu point of hill above Heppner and
walls made of puddle covered with a
:hin oouting of cement.
The smaller reservoir for city service
3ould be constructed of timber as the
water would not remain in it long enough
at a time to cause it to taste of the wood
The city service pipes should be con
nected to both reservoirs, but the water
u the storage reservoir, being shut off
by valves, need not let run into tbe pipes
except during tbe time of fire.
From the reservoir to Main street
there should be an 8-iuoh maiu laid.
Along Main street a six-iuch main and
on other streets a four-inch maiu.
At about everv two blocks there should
be set non-freezing fire hydrants.
On this plan the approximate estimate
of cost of the system covering everything
830,663 00.
From this expenditure the following
annual revenue could be expeoted; Ser
vice hydraDts at $21.00 83,000

Office rent, stationery, fuel, etc.... 300
Repairs 300
rotal expenses 1,500
Net annual revenue from syBtem. . .. 3,000
When tbe gravity supply becomes in
sufficient the approximate cost of an ad
ditional supply from wells would be
81-00.

Remarkable Contrast in the Effect of Tiro
(' Poisons on the Complexion.
The slow absorption of many poisons
bnngea in some more or lesJ modified
form the complexion, but arsenic and
ammonia show their t fleet about as
quickly as any. The popular belief that
arsenic clears the complexion has led
many silly women to kill themselves
with it in small, continued doses.
It produoes a waxy, ivory-like appear
ance of tbe skin during a certain stage of
the poisoning, but its terrible after ef
fects have become too well known tco
make it of common use as a cosmetic
The efTeots of ammonia upon the com
plexion are direcily the opposite to tbat
of arsenio. Tbe first symptom of am
monia poisoning which appears atnoug
tbose who work in ammonia factories is
a disooloration of tbe skio of the nose
and forehead. This gradually extends
over tbe face until tbe oomplexiou has a
stained, blotched, and unsightly appear
ance. With people who take ammonia
into their systems in smaller dosea, as
with their water or food, these striking
symptoms do not appear so soon. Tbe on
ly effect of the poison tbat is visible for
a time is ageneral uuwholesomeuess and
sallowness of the complexion.
Many people are slowly absorbing am
mon in poison without knowing it. The
use of ammonia in the manufactures has
greatly increased of late, and it is uu
questionably used as an adulterant iu
oertain food preparations. Official an
alysis have plainly Bhowu its use even
in such cheap articles of every day con
sumption as baklog powders. Tbe con
tinued absorption of ammonia in even
minute quantities as an adulterant in
food is injurious not merely from its ef
fect upon the complexion, but beoause
it destroys the oouting of the stomaob
nod causes dyspepsia and kindred evils.
Professo' Long of Chioago, is author!
ty for tbe statement tbat, if to ntty
million parts of water there is one part
of ammonia, the water is dangerous.

DESERTS HIS FlMILT FOR TOE CHARMER
Hi Wife and Children, Who are Highly Bel

Community.
He worshippsd and fell.
For some time a young widow by the
uume of Mrs. Dora Wilson has been en"
gaged iu the milliuery business in Hepp
ner, keeping her stock in tbe parlors of
the City Hotel. She was apparently at
tentive to her business and did fairly
well. It was here that she became ac
quainted with Isaao N. Basey, tbe lessee
of tbe City Hotel.
Heppner bas been talking for iom
time about the intimacy existing be
tween tbe widow and Mr, Basey, but a
large majority thought nothing of the
matter, as there is always more or less
gossip going the rounds. Only a short
time ago Mrs. Basey was called below by
the death of her father, and tbe oritios
do say tbat during her absenoe Mr.
Basey and Mrs. Wilson grew more at
tached aud attentive to "eaob other
Very recently the wife returned from the
valley. Her suspicions were aroused,
and she resolved to watoh. Last Tburs
day night tbe beaband and father wub
oaughl in a rather compromising posi
tion in the widow's bedroom. Some
friends of Mrs. Basey happened to be
near and were called to witness all,
while a musoular young man held down
the window to prevent exit in tbat direc
tion. By 8 o'clock Friday morning the
wbole town was full of excitement over
the scandal. Tbe pair iutended to leave
by the morning truin, but a large ship
ment of stock had to be taken down, and
thus delayed tbe departure till after
noon. Growing tired of the delay, the
oouple started on toot down the railroad
track, but were overhauled nefore they
bad proceeded very far, by Sheriff Noble
on warrants issued on complaint of Mrs,
Basey, charging them with adultery, aud
also from Basty'g Heppner creditors, who
were satisfied of bis intentions to leave
the state. All were finally dismissed, on
proper settlement being made. Basey
then departed, accompanied by the wo
man, it is supposed for Castle Rook or
Echo, where the train oould be taken for
a Bpeedy exit out of the country.
Mrs. Wilson's mother and other rela
tives live in this county and, we are in
formed, are well respected. She is late
ly from Chioago where her husband died
not long ago.
Tbe weight of Basey 'a infamy, how
ever, falls on bis innocent wile and
children. Mrs. Basey is a most excel
lent woman, highly refined, of a good
family, and Bhe, as well as ber children,
have tbe sympathy of their many friends
and acquaintances in Morrow county. It
is tbe verdict of all tbat bis leaving is
good riddance, and that not oulv his ac
tions of late, but for the past year, have
been suffioieut to characterize him as a
very poor man for any community.
In this oonncolion it would be well to
state tbat Mr. Basey's relatives here are
good people and highly esteemed, as are
his parents who reside in Salem.

GOOD
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is often called the
Good-Luck Baking Powder,
Owing; to the fact that good luck always attends the
use of Dr. Price's, it is not essential to use it the moment
it is mixed nor is it required to have the oven always just
so, as in the case with ammonia or alum powders. It is not
luck after all, but the exact accuracy and care exercised in
the preparation and combination of all the ingredients of
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. Competent chemists
are employed to test the strength
ingredient. Nothing is trusted to
always uniform in its work.
House wives never fail to have "good hick" in
ing most delicious bread, biscuit, pastry and cakes
remain moist and sweet,
tains the white of eggs.
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is re
ported by all authorities as free from Ammonia,
Alum, or any other adulterant. In fact, the
purity of this ideal powder has never been questioned.

TARIFF NOT A TAX.
If tbe tariff is a tax, why is it that so
many artioles of American manufacture
are selling lower in tbe markets limn the
aotual amount of duty on that of foreign
manufacture; why more are lower than
in tbe days of free trade; why farmers'
products are increasing iu price and
manufactured necessities are selling low
er year by year? Our home markets are
open to American competition, only,
that is the reason. Our English neigh
burs are tbereby compelled to unload
elsewhere, their home territory not be
ing of sufficient size to take near all ot
it, and that is the reason why their mon
ey, their press and their people cry
against America's protection and for the
national candidates of free trade tenden
cies. Uur people cannot be expected to
remember back to an era before they
were born, but tbey ouu lend aud thiuk.
What was England's policy in the inter
colonial days, remains tbe aiime at pres
ent. The colonies were muuufucturing
too much, growing too Independett. The
attempts to reduce them to serfdom and
poverty brought about our national in
dependence. England's polioy today, to
aooomplish disaster for us uud have their
tills running over, is to meddle with our
national affairs. They do not own ns
but tbey would like to, and will prac
tically aooomplish it if we are not on
the alert.
