Schillings est tea sold only in acMses THE BALE OF STOCK. The Transition of the Range Industry in Eastern Oregon. By J, D. Falrman, Riverside, Or. In conversation with the writer, a Bhort time since, a prominent business man of Vale, in speaking of the heavy shipments from Ontario, of young stock, bewailed the fact that the stockmen were killing the goose wnich laid the golden egg. "They are selling every thing," he said, "and when the stock is gone what will the land and hay be worth?" Then more than ever, was I impressed with the great change which unnoticed and uncom mented upon, has taken place on the ranges of Eastern Oregon. Some- fifteen years ago, when John Lackey, buying for the Blewett outfit, started the first Immense droves of sheep over the trail he barred weathers with broken mouths. And I have often heard him tell amusing tales of men who tried to work in weathers "old enough to vote." Twelve years ago they bought threes and barred twos. Two years later they were buying twos, but would mouth your sheep, and Mr Yearling, though he was the biggest sheep in the band, went over the fence "be would not drive." After the hard winter of 1889-90, they took yearlings willingly. Today of 150,000 sheep in Malheur county, there are certainly not to ex ceed 2,000 yearling weathers, and eastern buyers have made heavy drafts on the lambs. With cattle It is the same. During my fall Inspection, I stayed for the night at the house of an old time vacquero, now a prosperous stockman on Grow Creek, and he being in a reminiscent mood, was telling me how years ago "Ballantyne of Boyse came over and bought old man Harper's steers, huge fellows weighing nearly a ton apleco, and every one of them ten years old," and of the time they had getting them out of the willows, and big rye grass, on what is today the Harper ranch. Other old-timers tell of droveB of 7 and 8-vear old steers, but today if there is a 8-year-old on the range he has been misBed In the rodeo, and with the exception of the P. B. S. Co., and three or four others, there are few if any twos, A few years ago if a man sold a yearling steer, It was because he was hard up, or had poor Judgment; but every year the tendency to ell young stock increases. It is hard for a stockman to refuse ?20 for a yearling steer, however well he feeds in the winter, there are always the chances of poison in the spring, and straying in the summer to bo counted on. And so, we now see many men, who a few years since, would have laughed at the idea, letting their yearlings go, and running noth ing but cows and calves. Aside from the pecuniary one, there aro other reasons for the change. Every year tho stock man depends more upon the hay stacks, and less upon the range (or wintering his stock, and by Belling for June delivery, the pastures, which were formerly used in the full, to top oil' his steers, aro now used for cows w ith late calves, thus Bavlug hay and enabling him to carry more she stock. If the prudent good ju ices continue, a few years will see Eastern Oregon to all Intents and purposes a breeding tango. A nd so, In comput ing the capabilities of the statu, to continue Its present Immense shipment of cuttle and sheep, the tact must be borne In in mind that, virtu ally, the stock has Increased to 1U present num bers, plus tho male stork which heretofore ac companied them. As tlie stock has changed, so too have the men who care for them. The old-time vadiuero, a man of iron, who did not seem happy unless ho was undergoing hardships, which to an ordinary man would be unendurable, and whose only Idea of enjoy moot was a holy taro, has been succeeded by a class of young fellows, sons of stockmen, or small stockmon themselves, who as the outfit reaches their rangu, bringing their saddlo horses and bed, Join the rodeo, obey the orders of tho company foreman, and when the ruduo readies the limit of their rangu, drop out and start back home, taking their cattle with tlium, to be succeeded by another small man whoso range has just been roaehed. There is no better neighbor for a small cattle man than the Pacific Live Stock Company. With the hurder it Is the same. The old-time, long haired, blear-eyed, chronlo orank, who styled himself a professor, has been followed by a class of euurgetlo, well-read, well Informed men, who In point of Intelligence are the peers of any class In tho state. The bulk of tho papers which come to tho rural postoltlces go to the sheep camps, and while the busy man on tho ranch skims over Ills, the herder reads his thoroughly, Then, too, the good wages paid by sheep men, and 1 10 a mouth, are a great inducement. Men coming from tho outsido see at a glance that by no means can they so soon get a start lu life as by following the sheep. Buporlnteudent McKlnley, some years ago, jestingly said: "In a few years we will take a dog, and herd the cattle on foot." He was nearer the truth than lie thought, for the old-time regime Is a thing of the past, and alfalfa today is king.-Kural Hplrtt. New Palace rileepeis.

The following, says the Oregon Mist, is taken from the Astorlan of last Friday, and will be of greater or less interest to the people of this country. "J. H. Griffin, a well-known timber cruiser, returned yesterday from St. Helens, where he had been examining timber lands for Michigan capitalists, with a view to purchasing for saw mill plants to be started in the near future. He says there is considerable good timber in Columbia county still, but most of it 1b rather remote from tlie st'eams. When asked where the bulk of the timber lies now, he said the Kehalem, Wilson and TraBk creeks and their tributaries still contain large bodies of fir, cedar and spruce, and there is also a large amount of timber at the head of Lewis river and on the Washougnl, in the state of Washington. On Gray's river and on Young's river, tributaries of the lower Columbia, much first clasB timber can still be found. Most of tlie timber lands of Oregon and Washington have passed out of the hands of tbe government, and are being held by private persons, who are waiting a rise in values. Mr. GriHin thinks there will be a geuei al inquiry for these lands on the part of Eastern people in the near future. He predicts also that both the Pennoyer mill in Portland and the large sawmill at Skamokawa will toon be running at full blast. The two mills to gether have a capacity of over 200,000 feet per dry, and when they start up they will put several hundred men at work in the logging camps and about the mills themselves. "Timber locators have been busier in this section lately than for several years past. Their work is almost wholly confined to Clatsop, Columbia and Tillamook counties, and par ticularly to those parti of the latter two coun ties tributary to the Nehalsra river. Many settlers are also filing on timber land on the Washington side of the Columbia. The country through which theNehalem flows is considered by lumbermen to contain the best timber show on the entire Pacific coast. Millions of feet of the finest spruce and fir grows for miles on the banks of the river, with plenty of water to take the logs to tidewater at any season ot the year, Export cargoes cannot be sent out on account of the shallow water and the dangerous sand spits at the entrance to the harbor, so the mills there at present are not operated more than half the year, An appropriation by congress for building a jetty, similar to Improvements made to harbors in the South Bend countryi would result in great benefit to the people of Tillamook, Clatsop and Columbia couutles A veritable boom In timber, both in mill and logging operations, may be looked for with the opening of summer, and several deals are al ready under way which may be closed before tins time.

Everybody has read stories of mys terious islands exercising an irresisti ble Attraction ou ships passing near them. These, of course, are pure in ventions; but there is an island named Homholm in the Baltic ea near the const of Denmark whose rocks, accord ing to a Vienna journal, Der Stein der Weiseii, are so strongly magnetic that they affect the compasses of passing ships, even as far as nine miles away. In this manner Homholm may be said to turn vessels out of their course, since nn error of the compass needle may cause a corresponding error in the steering of a ship. niatlncaUhed Flanlsh Woman.

Hatton threw a stool ut him and sewed a pants button on his vest nearly 30 years ago, Theo dore Hatton wants an absolute divorce, says the Syracuse (N. Y.) Herald. Tho action is brought in the state of Illinois, and evidence is being taken in this city, both for the plaintiff and thedefendnnt. The parties are well advanced down the toboggan of time, the defendant being npvt nrd of 30 years old and' the plalntiit ftt least as aged. There are some interesting things about the case. Until about 1872 the Hattons lived near Amboy, supposedly happy, as nil married people are to be considered until they reach the courts One day the plaintiff, after a quarrel with his wife, which neither claim was regarded more than a trivial matter, left hiu home and went west. He was heard from at various times, (but no contribu' tlons to the support of his wife and child were received. A short time ago Mrs. Hatton heard that her husband had brought suit for divorce, and that judgment was about to be entered by default. The matter looked irregular, is Mr. Hatton had never, she says, received a rservice of the fxapera or an intimation of the litiga tlon until informed by an Acquaintance. An answer was put in denying the charges made and alleging the facts as Mrs. Hatton and the people about Am boy remember them. It is said that Ha,tton, since living in Chicago, his present residence, baa accumulated some property. Notice of Intention. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, LAND Ottice at U t) ramie.
