M. Johnson, of Nebraska, in a recent issue of Orange Judd Farmer, says: "This chicken fever that gets in all some time is contagious and needs a remedy. I would advise some kind of a tonic, sucb as holding on to part of good job. I can't make fun of any one with that fever, as I had it once myself. It waa about six years ago that I was stricken, and it came in this way: If it costs only one bushel of gain to keep a hen a year. I can buy corn for lftc, and if she lays 24 e worth 1 cent each, here will be 12. i 5 profit. Then why should, not 100 hens make a profit of $225 and 1000 hens of 92250? Then I took up the broiler ques tion, and found that lc eggs could be turned into 40c broilers. "I have gone through all the ex perience that belongs to the novice in the business and tind that poultry really pays.

It Has Passed the Senate and Promises to Become a Law. The Adams warehouse bill, senate bill No. 7, passed the Oregon senate Thursday, but not without opponition. The principal objection to the bill was that it imposes burdensome and un necessary obligations upon warehouse men in requiring thorn to make regu lar monthly reports and special reports upon demand of storers of grain. Tbe bill, as originally introduced, had been amended at the request of Sena tor Booth, so as to exempt from its re quirements all operators of grist mills who do not receive grain for export. This amendment was made in the in terest of small millers . in Southern Oregon, who grind wheat for farmers and miners, but do not conduct an ex tensive storage business. Senator Adams spoke briefly in support of his measure, saying that its purpose is to protect the farmers against the care lessness or dishonesty of warehouse men. He stated that Marion county farmers have lost 253,000 bushels of grain by warehousemen shipping away grain which they did not own. and that this would not have occurred had the warehousemen been governed by a law which required them to make re ports showing the amouat of grain on hand at various times. He said that the present law lor the punishment of warehousemen who shin away grain which they do not own has proven in effectual, and this bill proposes to remedy the defect of the old law by making the requirements more specific.

Wants an Income Tax. Linn county representatives in the legislature believe in an income tax and have introduced bills in the house and senate providing that after March 1, 1002, there shall be assessed, leviod, collected and paid annually upen the gains, profits and income re ceived in the preceding calendar year by every resident of the state of Ore gon," a tax of 2 per centum above the sum of $4000.

Hyde park waa the roost interesting spot during the procession, fcr there the greatest crowds gathered. Nothing like it was ever witnessed. Several were injured by being tramped on during the rush for the gates, after the procession passed.

It is made a special order for Tuesday'next anil will prob ably be defeated on the ground that it is unconstitutional. Legislative Notes. The bill for a division, of the agri cultural college will probably be withdrawn. In the light of recent advices from Washington the proposed establishment of a separate college in Eastern Oregon is impossible in that it would result in the withdrawal of federal support from botli institutions. Under existing arrangements the col lege receives $50,000 annually, from the federal government, and Director General True, in charge of the experi ment work for the government, has written to the college regents in effect that the college must remain intact to enjoy tho annual $50,000. The bill passed appropriates $20,000 for improvements and repairs and an annual sum of $25,000 for the main tenance of the college. The anoropriation for the state uni versity was increased from $30,000 to $47, 5(H) annually and the bill passed without, a dissenting vote. Thus far there have been few clashes between the members during debate. In protestine against the bill requiring county officers to have their bonds secured by a surety comnany, Mr. Eddy provoked the ire oi the author of the bill, Watson of Mult nomah, who construed Eddy's remark into an intimation that he, Watson, was lobbying the bill through in the interest of foreign corporations. He denied the implied accusation and fiointed to instances where counties lave been unable to recover on bonds signed by private citizens. Tbe country members were opposed to the measure and it was finally sent back to a com mittee to be amended so as to apply only to counties of over 60,000. while the appropriations are liberal in the extreme all of the bills are not going through without protest. Whit ney of Linn, the old watchdog of the treasury, is carefully scanning every item and leads the o 'position when tangible reason for V . erence arises. The Multnomah cou itv delegation is divided against itself because of a lack of harmony between the regular nom- nees and the candidates elected on the citizen's ticket in Portland. Senate joint resolution No. 1, provid ing for a constitutional amendment, making the state printer's office a statutory one, so that the legislature may abolish tne otnee and control the compensation of the incumbent, was reported favorably by the committee on federal relations, and was adopted dv a vote ot nts to 4. House bill No. 80, by Poorman, makes railroad companies liable for damages Sustained by any person, in cluding employes, by negligence of agents or employes. House bill fto. 81, by McAlister. of Union, calls for $60,000 for a branch agricultural college, to be located in Grande Konde valley. Representative Nicholas, of Benton county, nas introduced a bill to give incorporated municipalities local option, ine Din provides mat any municipal corporation may decide the liquor question by a popular vote upon me petition oi ten legal voters. The Multnomah delegation met Tuesday evening and discussed tbe dry dock feature of the proposed port of Portland bill. President Mohler and Attorney Cotton, of the Oreeon Rail road & JNavigation company, were present on invitation, and gave some interesting testimony snowing tne necessity for a drydock. President Mohler's talk was plain and very much to the point, and, his yiews on the matter seemed to meet with the ap proval of nearly all of the members present. 1'ersonal friends of limner Hermann state that his name has been presented in the senatorial contest without his consent or knowledge, and that, in fact, . he has advised at least one cl personal 'friend, a member of the le 311.

The funeral began with the simplicity usually accorded any indi vidual, but will reach climax tomor-, row in London where it yill be of sur. passing grandeur. Bearing tbe coffin the stalwart guards came from the great doors of the entrance ' to Osborne house, and, as it weighed seven hun dred pounds, it taxed the strength of even these giants. The casket was placed on the gun carriage, of the Highland pipers, who took position in .out, while trie bodyguards, in iuu unitorm, followed the casket.

The bands bere itepped aside, but continuing tbe direful music, while tbe gun carriage was run forward to the gang way of the yacht on which the casket waa placed. After the sailors tenderly bore the coffin aboard, the music ceased, only the mournful beats ot muffled drams sounding, the curtains from the daii on which the coffin rested, were drawn back to full extent and kept so. to en able all to see the bier, which was drapped in ruby velvet. At 3 o'clock, proceeded by eight black and grim marine destroyers, two abreast, the Alberta slowly steamed away from the pier and headed lor Portsmouth. As the funeral snip cleared, the yachts Victoria and Albert, Osborne, Hohenxollern, En chantress and Trinity ran in and took aboard the members ot the royal family of mourners. ' Now occurred the most impressing funeral pageant ever witnessed at sea, the Alberta passing down between a double line of monster war vessels, made up of cruisers, battleships and gunboats of the English navy rein forced by vessels of nearly all foreign countries. As the procession started tbe whole fleet began firing nine minute suns. As the Alberta passed, each vessel ceased tiring so bat tbe roar gradually died away and there was silence as the yacht drew into Gosport harbor, where she will lie over tonight. It was 4:30 o'clock when the Alberta reached Portsmouth, taking an hour and a half crossing from Cowes. Funeral Knell at Portsmouth. '. Portsmouth, Feb. 1.
