SHEKP AND WOOL NOTES.
The Field and Farm says :
An old saying is "a sick sheep, a dead
sheep."
Give your ewes about to lamb comfort
able quarters.
Do. not attempt to winter breeding
ewes without grain.
A sheep oan be well fattened in 60
days, and it takes twice that time to fat
ten a steer.
Over and over again it has been stated
that without a good ram success in the
highest degree cannot be reached.
To make the most out of sheep they
must be kept for a series of years. Some
years they pay much better than others.
Sheep will assist greatly in clearing
the farm of weeds, but you must remem
ber that sheep cannot thrive on weeds
alone.
Sheep for toe food consumed, the oare
required and money invested will give
better returns than any other elass of
live stook.
Montana Bheep growers, seventy-five
in Dumber and representing 8,000,000
sheep, have organized at Helena for of
fense and defense against cattlemen.
After a time sheep may be useful on
ly for mutton. Wool, the chemists say,
oan De made more cheaply from wood
fibre than it oan be grown on sheep.
Try to have as many twin produoirtg
ewes as possible. Ewes which have good
sound udders, are dooile and have pro
duced twins, are the ewes to retain for
breeders.
The Veterinary ig authority for the
opinion that nine-tenths of the sheep
that die from what farmers oall grub in
the head really die from lung trouble
brought no by exposure to fall rains.
While sheep can exist for a time on
weeds and briars still to produce the
best results they must have plenty of
good grass and water. The sooner the
average flockmaster understands that
successful sheep raising requires close
attention, food and shelter the better it
will be for this industry in the state.
There is money in the winter feeding
of sheep by the small farmer, even where
there is none in the feeding of oattle.
Ewes may be kept to raise winter lauibs,
or a few wethers at a time mav he
bought and fattened for the mutton mar
ket. When they are in good oondition
both their flesh and wool are profitabla
Dairying in the United States.
The men employed in the business
number 750,000 and the horses are over
,000,000. There are over 12,000,000
horses all told.
Tbe oows and horses annually consume
30,000,000 tons of hay and nearly 90,000,-
000 bushels of oornmeal, about the same
of oatmeal, 275,000,000 bushels oats, 2,-
000,000 bushels of bran and 30,000.000
bushels of corn, to say nothing of the
brewery grains, Bprouts and other ques
tionable feed of various kinds that are
used to a great extent. It costs $450,-
000,000, to feed these cows and horses.
The average price paid to the laborers
necessary in the dairy business is proba
bly twenty dollars a month, amounting
to 8190,000,000 a year.
The average cow yields about 450 gal
lons of milk a year, which gives a total
product of 6,750,000,000 gallons. Twelve
cents a gallon is a fair price to estimate
the value of milk at, a total return to the
dairy farmers 8810,000,000, if thev sold
all the milk as milk. But 50 per oent.
f their milk is made into cheese and
butter. There's the same amount album
inoids in SH pounds of milk as there is
in one pound of beef. A fat steer furnish
es 50 per cent, of boneless beef, but it
would require 24,000,000 steers weighing
1,600 poundB each, to produoe the same
amount of nutrition as tbe annual milk
produst does. American Analyst.
No serious objection to the purohaee
f the fire apparatus could be urged, un
less it be that of laok of funds, in the
face of the expenditure whioh tne town is
about to make in the end of securing
waterworks. Of course, economy should
be practiced in town matters, as much
as in the management of one's persoual
affairs, but before any of our worthy
citizens condemn the action of tbe coun
cil, give it a good thorough investigation.

COUNTY, OREGON,

An Enthusiastic Gathering of
of the Clubs of Oregon.
EXTRACT FROM SPEECH OF HON. J. LAYER
The Presence of Prominent Men Noted on
This Occasion.
Pobtland, Jan. 28. At 10 a. m. the
republican clubs of Oregon Vent into
convention. Sixty days ago executive
committees of the Young Men's Repub
lican Club of Oregon and the National
League Repub'n Clubs issued a call for
today's gathering. The work of organ
ization has been pushed. Each school
district has striven to have a representa
tion at this, the most important olub
convention held in the Northwest this
year. The convention hall was filled to
over-flowing and the greatestjenthusiasm
prevailed. As the president of the olub
and league, Hou. J. L. Ayer, ascended
the rostrum the building fairly shook
with the applause. Delegates sprang to
their feet and waved their welcome. On
the platform was seated Hon. W. R. El
lis, Hon. Wm. McMasters, A. 5$. Manly,
Esq., Hon. L. Conn and Hon. U. O.
Smith, vioe presidents of the organiza
tion, Hon, John H. Hall and Geo. M'
Healey, the state treasurers, and L. Q.
Swetlad, L. A. McNary, and Mert Dim
mick, Esq., the state secretaries.
After the enthusiasm had subsided the
meeting was oalled to order by Presi
dent Ayer,who said :
I thank you for your weloome. It is
with feelings of profound gratification
that I see suoh a thi rough represen
tation of all sections of our glorious
state. We are assembled under call ol
our executive committee for the purpose
of discussing tbe issues of tbe hour and
tbe plans of tbe ooming oampuign. By
our aotion today let us sbow; ths state
and nation that the republican party is a
barmonious body, that it is free from fao
tional strife, that we sink' penoual ends
ror tne common good . fplaus-.
Mr. J. W. Simpso'n being oalled on
delivered a brief but Btirriug speeoh up
on the importance of oomplete organiz
ation, tbe duty of the respective clubs,
and the great necessity of individual ef
fort. He reviewed the history of the na-
uonai repuoncan party, and dwelt upon
the grand accomplishments of the party
in tbe past, and showed how futile were
tbe efforts of its enemies to oouviuoe the
people that its day was past, and that it
had no longer a national aim to achieve.
He dwelt upon the legislation whioh
had characterized its earlier days of na
tional triumph, and portrayed in vivid
oolors the enactments which had led to
the payment of so muoh of the nationul
debt, the efforts made to oomplete the
step of emancipation; the opposition it
had been obliged to faoe in attempting
to recognize substantially tbe heroes of
the late war; and the mHuly and decided
stand taken by the republican adminis
trations on all questions of international
importance.
He Bhowed that the pretended legisla
tion of the democracy was but tbe found
ation of a backward and obstructive pol
icy, and not in keeping with the prn
gressive theories and practice of tbe re
publican whenever aud wherever in pow
er. He predicted that there would be a
most gratifying triumph at the Novem
ber election, if the campaign should he
conducted in a broad, earnest, compre
hensive manner by the national leaders.
In concluding bis remarks, Mr. Simpson,
after referring in most flatten ug terms to
the zeal, servioes and exeoutive ability of
the president. (Hon. J. L. Ayer) said he
knew that tbe chair was always prepared
to lay before any body of republicans a
well digested resume of the vital ques
tions of the hour. He therefore hoped
that the convention would now be favor
ed with an address from the ohair, so
that every republican in the state of Or
egon might see clearly and definitely the
ground proposed to be taken by the or
ganizations represented in this conven
tion. After thanking the delegates for the
honor conferred, the president, John L.
Ayer, said:
Gentlemen op the Convention;
You have called upon me to give you
a synopsis of the history of our party
during tbe passing presidential term,
and to outline the policy of the party in
the campaign now upon us.
The duty of replying is too important
to be undertaken in this off hand man
ner. As tbe official ennunciation of the par-

ty policy should be first made by the
party convention for that purpose,
among others, assembled, and therefore
tbe grave responsibility oast upon me by
your request is one that I would willing
ly transfer to others were it not that, as
president of the Young Men's Club of
Oregon and state president of the Na
tional League of republican clubs, it is
my plain duty to oomply with your will
so far as my ability enables me to do so,
and in view of your confidence this duty
becomes a pleasure.
I will, therefore, refer briefly to the
present administration and its reoord. I
shall also touch upon some of those vi
tal prinsiples that are fundamental in
the polioy of our party.
Let us glanoe retrospectively to the
year 1884. In the calm of these after
years every Amerioan, be be democrat
or republican, looks with shame to that
era of ignorance and incompetency.
Ihe democratic party was entirelv un
fit and utterly unable to successfully
oope with a single problem of impor
tance. The tariff question, the silver is
sue, the Behring Bea embroglio, the Sam
oan hiatus, every grave question, in what
ever department arising, were of neces
sity left for solution to the incoming re
publican administration.
The Cleveland administration blotted
the pages of Amerioan history with the
Pan-Electrio soandal; the monstrous,
yes, tbe unholy war upon the rights of
old soldiers and sailors and their natu
ral dependents; the temporary nullifica
tion of the civil service; and the villain
ous and dastardly attemnt tn crush
Amerioan industries; to lower the earn
ings of the Amerioan wage-earners; to
deprive thousands of Amerioan oitizens
of the right to live, by means of the free
trade tariff.
What wonder that the people became
alarmed, and Brising in their might
hurled from the high places those who
so shamefully had abused their trust.
What wonder the republicans were oalled
on to man the ship of state, that a re
publican was put at the wheel when the
billows of financial depression were
breaking high upon the free trade bar.
The people knew that the republicans
could bring the good ship in safety to
the harbor of protective tariff. Ap
plause. .
In time of danger, like a giant refresh
ed from slumber, the American people
'sroke. Memojy swe;it from their eyes
the scales of (hat moral leprosy which
oontact with the unclean delusions of the
democratic party had brought upon
them. Memory spread before them tbe
glorious bintory of the grand old party
that seemed heaven sent to save the
Union. Judgment showed plainly that
this party must be recalled to and remain
yet longer iu power to secure aud estab
lish the results of the conflict. Ap
plause. Brought to the verge of national dis
grace and finanoial ruin by the Cleveland
administration the people rcoallcd the
days of Amerioan glory and returned to
power the republican party, the party
that has brought to a successful termina
tion the greatest war in the history of
the world ; that has in twenty years
paid 1,000 millions of war debt and dis-
bursed to our heroes of that war, their
wives and children, nearly as muoh more,
and that, too, in suoh a manner that the
drain upon the people was never felt.
How oould the people forget that the
republican party bad taken the nation
when plunged iu the depths and by a
oareful proteotion and development of its
resources and industries and by its man
agement of the country's affairs had
made us what we are today, the greatest
and most prosperous nation on tbe face
of the earth.
During tbe IiibI three years we have
had a praotical government whioh bus
accomplished substantial results. All
departments worked harmoniously to a
oommon end. Under a practical presi
dent everything progressed smoothly in
the manner most for tbe nation's good.
For the executive work, so well done,
let us ascribe honor where honor is due,
to the president of the United StateB-
Benjamin Harrison. Applause.
Tbe administration of Mr. Cleveland
presented a marked contrast to that of
President Harrison and in no way more
strikingly than by the tyrannical use of
the veto power. Suoh a flagrant use of
this power was never known in the
country's history. Cleveland arrogated
to himself the clsim of being the wisest
of American presidents ; so much wiser
in fact than any Amerioan living, that be
undertook with his veto power to over
turn tbe will of the people as expressed
by their representatives in oongress as
sembled. He deemed himself much
wiser than Bny Amerioan dead; that
while from the immortal Washington to
Arthur inclusive only 100 veto inessaifes
had been sent to oongress, Cleveland in
four years seut to the 402 representatives
of the people, equal to himself, if not
superior, C07 vetoes, four times as many
as had been sent in the 100 years previous
to bis election. Of these 607 vetoes. 524
were refusals to approve pensions for
Union soldiers.
In messages accompanying these at
tempts to overthrow the will of the peo
ple he sneered at the unhappy necessities
of the veterans, laughed at their suffer-
iug families, denoted the truth of their
oatbs, brutally attacked the Grand Army
and those who asked for bread he offered
a stone. And all this from a man who de
fended bis country by a paid substitute.
The department of State under the
present administration ihinoi with addad
lustre when contrasted with the exhibi
tion of inoompetenoy given by this de
partment in the Cleveland government,
The eluoidation of the Samoau prob
lem, the unraveling of which Bayard had
ingloriously attempted the bringing to
arbitration tbe Behring Bea question
after the failure of democratic diplomacy
the gathering of tbe Pan-Amerioan
congress, and its important results all
are striking and brilliant exhibitions of
statecraft, the credit of whioh is due to
one man to a man who has done more
for the glory of the nation than any liv
ing Amerioan a man true to himself and
his friends James G. Blaine. Great
applause.
The new navy is essentially republi
can, designed and built by Americans
Applause.
ir tne present democratic oongress
deals with tbe needs of the nation in a
business way, the good work will go on,
and we will have a navy that will be
most effective; but it, as some of the
demoo ratio members threaten, the build
ing of the navy shall cease, and no new
ships shall be authorized, then will we
ourse the day the democratio party saw
the light When our defenseless oondi
tion makes our seaboard cities an easy
prey for foes, we shall rue tbe day our
sloth and Degligenoe gave oongress to
the democrats.
Secretary Prootor built up a newer and
better army system than has existed
:nce 1864. And the present action of
tbe new secretary in dealing with the
Mexican border trouble, and preparing
for a war with Chili, must be oommend
ed. The work of the interior department
bus been large aud successful. Notuhle
reforms have been undertaken in the
Indian department. The polioy of the
administration contemplates the break
ing up of the reservation system. Muny
millions of land will be recovered for the
benefit of settlers.
The failure of Mr. Cleveland's admin
istration wbs nowhcie more conspicuous
than in the land office.
General Sparks, upou taking oharge of
the bureau, and without investigation of
any kind, made the dastardly statement
"That comparatively few of the entries
upon tbe publio lauds during the pre
vious ten yeors had been honestly effect
ed." By an infamous orler issued in
pursuance of this theory, be undertook
to nullify all the publio land laws of the
United States. After mfllions of dollars
bad been spent, and a year of time lost
iu attempts to prooure proof of this
statement, the secretory of the interior
was compelled to revoke Sparka' order,
and onoe more to permit settlers to en
joy tbe benefits of the land laws.
-
The democrats raised n yell of "sur
plus!" Look at the surplus! Let us
have free trade ! But there was no sur
plus. There were outstanding debts to
the reduotion of which every penny
hould have been applied beyond what
was necessary for current expenses.
During Mr. Cleveland's administration
tbe bonded debt was reduced 341 mil
lions, 1SH millions less than the reduo
tion during President Arthur's term.
Yet, when Cleveland went out of office,
the surplus was only forty-eight millions.
If Cleveland, whose revenues were larger
than Arthur's, bad paid as much debt as
Arthur paid, be would have had at the
end of his term not one cent of surplus,
but a debt of ninety billions.
The democrats say that the surplus j
and, mark you, there was no actual sur
plus was wasted by the extravagant ex
penditures of a billion-dollar congress.
This is a falsehood. The surplus and
six times the surplus have been paid
under Harrison in liquidation of the pub
lio debt. Cleveland left forty-eight
millions in the treasury. Up to June 30,
'01 Hurrison bad paid 234 millions to the
publio debt. In two years and four
months he had reduoed tbe per oapita
All Experts Use
Royal Baking Powder
Perfect and uniform success in making finest food is
more certain with Royal Baking Powder than with any
other. Use it in every receipt calling for a baking
powder, or cream of tartar and soda, and the best
results in pure, wholesome, appetizing food are assured.
Experts use it because it adds to their success. Physi
cians and Health Officers recommend it because it adds
to the wholcsomeness of the food.
Marion JIakland: "I regard the Royal Baking Powder as
the best in the market. Since its introduction into n.y kitchen
I have used no other."
Miss Maria 1'arloa: "It seems to me that the Royal
Raking l'ovder is as good as any can be. I have used it a
great deal and always with satisfaction."
Mrs. Bakkr, Principal of Washington, D. C, School of
Cookery: "I say to you, without hesitation, use the 'Royal.'
I have tried all, but the Royal is the most satisfactory."
M. Gorju, late Chef, Delmonico's, New -York: "In my use
of Royal Baking Powder, 1 have found it superior to all others."
A. For TIN, Chef, White House, for Presidents Arthur and
Cleveland: "I have tested many baking powders, but for finest
food can use none but 'Royal.'"

debt from 824.50, where Cleveland left
off, to 812 87, where it stands today. Is
this reckless extravaganoe?
Messrs. Wallace McCamant and W.
M. Davis also addressed the convention
in such a manner as to frequently earn
applause, and it might be well said in
suoh a manmr as to enthuse every
republican present.
