Although an investment in Real Estate may not at once prove lucra tive and yield an immediate income to the purchaser, we have found, from many years experience, that all judicious investments made, either in farming lands or suburban property adjoining a growing and prosperous city like this, invariably result in a fine speculation, or at all events in one that is doubly sure for a good paying investment. In the products of the soil all wealth has its origin. The indus trious farmer must always have a market for his wares. What he has to sell are the absolute necessities of life, and he that does not produce them must obtain them of him who does. Whatever may be a man's business, however much money he may control, he must look to the tiller of the soil for that which will sustain life. There may be local derangements, but on the whole there is of necessity a market for every important product, and the producer must always be sure of his living, so long, at least, as he is the owner of the land he cultivates. In every department of life sunshine and shadow alternate, but if the foundation fails, the ruin of the superstructure is inevitable. The possession of Heal Estate is a substantial capital. If ones title is good, no thief can steal it; it needs no insurance policy to make it safe; nothing short of an earthquake can swallow it. A good farm or surbur ban garden, with rich soil, judicious ly managed, whether its commercial gold value go up or down, is still the source of good and comfortable liv ing. Whatever else a man may possess, he cannot afford to do with out Real Estate sullicient to make himself and family, if he has one, a good home. Them's our Sentiments. From the Corvallis Gazette we quete: " The local notice mode or advenising is becoming very popular with many business men, who find, that in ad dition to a regular advertisement, it pays them to insert an occasional lo cal notice at 25 cts per veek,or special notice, lOcents per line. Persons are requested to write their own notices, as we are liable to "string" them out u business is business." Our columns are open to all our business men, alike. We have no "pets or favorites," beyond fair, legitimate business. If one dealer should happen to advertise in little stronger terms than suits somebody else, in his line, we know of no better way to get even, than by advertising more liberally. !

B12sDER. an advertisement to the amount, of $12, $15 or $50 per annum, we expect him to receive a valuable considera tion for that ad., and he could not, reasonably, expect us to " throw in," half as much more in locals. .Mer chants or grocers are not in the hab it of doing that kind of business, and why should they exact it from the newspaper man? "Right wrongs no one." A moment's calm reflection, on the subject, will materially change the Lotions of some people, we think. The people of Oregon are not burned up Jour months in summer and frozen or Hiovred in ix months in winter, nor mil lion;, of property Mvopt away in n night by overwhelming floods and devastating hur-lieane-j, n thry frequently are in the astern and western states of the union. They do not live in fear of being carried to untimely graves in hundred, by the summer fevers that prevail in the South ern states, nor of being overwhelmed by earthquakes that visit California every two or three year?, nor yet by its floods every fifth or tenth year, not dried up by its drouth every third or fourth year. The summer diseases so destructive to human life among children in thcAtluntic states are almot unknown in Oregon. Oregon offers great attractions to those in search of new nomes, to-wit: Healthy and attractive diversity ol surface. Grand scenery and mild climate. JNo excessive! cold or heat. Average temperature, sum mer, 67, winter 39. Thunderstorms very rare, hurricanes unknown. Dsn th ru to lower in Oregon than in any other State, east or wet. Soil of unsurpassed fortuity, especially suited to cereals, fruits, flax, hops, and hay. No failure f crops in Ores; n for thirty years from any cause. No droughts, as in California. Great abundance of the finest fruit. Stock-raising, very profitable.
