Chabot & Co., near Ilwa- oo, to hum cranberries, directs corn meat to the fact that on Clatsop plains, iu thib county is just such land, the fact that native cran berries have grown there for a quarter of a century illustrating how the crop might be improved by olture. A little capital rightly directed would produce great re sults in this direction- In other Mictions where the soil and climate are not as well adapted to crau lnrry culture as at Clatsop plains, the beds are drained, and fenced, carc being taken not to drain the water off too fast where it is in tended the vines shall spread, as they are mostly in moss buried up by tbc water, and should have time to settle and take root befoie the ground gete dry. After drain ing the turf is removod and clean sand spread over the ground to the depth of two inches, into this sand the vines are planted. In place already sandy a plow is used which turns the turf tinder and brings sufficient sand In the surface. In three years the vines Itegin lo bear. The cost would ho a considerable item at the .start, but the profits are enormous. From an A 1 cranberry patch in New Jersey owe thousand bushels jkt acre have been picked. There is no reason for supposing that the fertile section we allude to would do less if properly cared for. t3 5S vJ Ass fm n W k 3 3 USB a EWfl it At i I DEU.ERIN U - :2:a:::ESiZBiKSSsict:Eti3isii:s STQ21E PRIOR TO STOCK TAKING.

Fifth, we can depend on supplies free from the risk of ocean transit Sixth, we can build the ship in much less time.
