A Ion tí tlu* west bunks ot the W il lamette river the lands are mostly wild, yet, they contain even moro productive merit than tlm-e which have ln*on under high cultivation. The hop raising industry f<>r w hich these land- nrondapted, to must new comer* is t ut slightly appre iated; lienee we may be pardoned if we print a few el. mentar;. fact* in cmi- neetiou with the h u s i n t T i n * past year hasshow a that ( ire.ron can count on a certain market in the ea-t for all surplus hops. Indeed, Cincinnati buyers even crowd home purchasers, hence, we can safely predict that hops w ill never again bring les» than l i t v n b | mt jKiund; the cost o f r.ii'- ing, picking, curing and packing the crop dot-s not t \eeed 7 or s cent“ per ] m i u i h 1; the yield per aero varies from 1-Mxi to2.’>nii jiouiids, from which it can !«• r adilv seen that for small forming, Imp raising liolds rare inducements to prosjiective settler.* who fear the uncertainty o f ex ten* sive grain raising; we may add that the | mi 1 c s for the hops are abundant and are hxtited in easy distance lip the river, s o that the cutting is tin* greatest cost. Th«* second year brings profltidile returns and the start is made from roots which can he had at little* c< -t; cart* is required as to varieties; a l s o attention must he given to planting enough pollen pro ducing vines to insure ample fertili zation. In planting and cultivation no more skill is culled for than is re- «piired in corn raising, but in drying and pressing it is necessary that e x perience la* used. Parties interested in this business can In* shown lands adapted to Imp raising and will la* given all require I information by .1. W. Kirkland, o f the firm o f K irk land A Crc'sey, at Independence, near wliieh town and Itimna Vista, are located the largest tracts o f hop lands in tin* county, and lands that cannot la* surpassed by any locality on tin* coast. ( 'love r should I m ' * s ,»\ yh now, if you want to sow it tiiis spring. February is tin* month, if tlx* weather is pleas ant and the * oil in order, when much work can la* done. But there arc some -e.'ds that do not like to take the buffets o f March .m di. p iling storms, if they come. Wheat, for instance, lor spring sowing, is la tter off to la* sown w hen March i* over and the llrst warm weather follows the blustering month. But March can la* so agreeable once ill a while that it seems unkind to give it a proverbial likeness. We must try not aggravate Mars, and hope that lie w ill tills year give us Ids best terms, o that we won't need “ be ware the ides o f March.” The proposed act making educa tion compulsory on children between It and II years o f age requires that they attend school during 12 weeks o f each year. The age o f three yi urs is rather to young for anything hut a kintergurtin or infant school, and it might la* advisable to change that to live y e a r s , hut compulsory education should lie enforced for the bcnctit o f the rising generation. Three months is not much time and even then a child could hardly at II master the throe It’s, and understand tin* rudi ments o f language. Ignorance is the parent o f vie • and it is important for the state to educate the young as a safe-guard against crime. — -■ — Buster & Vornon, DKAi.F.H 1N- ■ " '= 3 Druggists and Apothecaries.
