each had nothing but good words
for our sisier town Forest Grove' in

the same kindly feelings one to

for tho acephalous body to say
naughty things about a body hav

and it should be properly located.
There have been many inouthings
from the mouth of Gales Creek.
And of course located as he is the
editor of the aforesaid wrapper has
observed that the mouth of the

Last Thur'sday to late for last

inches in length cutting through to
tho bone, lie was taken to the
Pharmacy where a surgeon dressed
the wound. The doctor says in
all his experience with cuts and
bruises from kicks this was the
largest gash cut in tissue hejiad
ever witnessed, it required five
stitches to close the wound. The
liorse was na retooled inni nu me
kicking. Mr. Kemni is reported us

A. S. Dudley living north of
CenteiVllo has one of the best
water-power roller process, flouring
mills in Washington county. The
Orient Roller Mills are located on
Dairy Creek a short distance west

have gained a reputation for first
class work. Mr. Dudley being a
practical miller superintends his
own mill, and looking after the
business generally he alvvajs does
his best to please his many custo

steam power is used and lured help

A drive out through North
Pla'ns last Saturday was very
pleasant barring the dust, but it
would not bo barred by robe or
duster. The harvest is nearly
over and tho threshing is well un
der way. Wu noticed very many
new granertes which indicate that
the farmers arc going to stoie their
grain for better markets or" feed it
to stock which will bring more
money than the raw material.
This is a step in tho right direction.
Wheat is worth sixty cents to feed
hogs when bacon is worth from

the structure when a heavy two

him on the left hand just back of

Tuesday morning is tho Water
and light man Mr. Singer opened
the tap in front of leaser's Saloon
on Second street two ladies turned
the corner at the Hillsboro House
with a light single horse rig. When
they had proceeded but a short dis
tance the horse took fright, at the
torrent of watter flowing from the
tap, wheeled and ran, in turning
round so sudenly one of the ladies
was thrown from the vehicle the
hind wheel passed over her pros

and they boih drove away before
wo could learn, the names of either

A consolidation in the black
smithing business took place a
short time ago at Correlius, and
the Cornelius Bla ;ksmith Company
was organized with our old time
friend A. S Hatch as business
manager, and Louis Weidewich fore
man. We have been acquainted
with these gentlemen who have the
work in charge They are each
first class workmen. We knew Mr.
Hatch in Nebraska a good many
years age. He is an old time dem
ocrat and a good advertiser. The
little town of Cornelius seems to
be doing remarkably well this sea
son, ami her citizens may congrat
ulate themselves that they have
two of the best iron and wood work
ers in the state of Oregon. AH
work entrusted to the Cornelius
Itlacksmilh Camimnv will receive
prompt attention and satisfaction
is ga u ran teed.
One of the (ioest residences
now in course of construction in the
valley is that of Thos. Talbott at
Cornelius. The main part of the
building is 22 x 2S feet with an ell
22 x 1( feet both two stories high,
also an ell in the rear 14x 22 one
and one half stories high. The
lower itory is twelve feet in the
clear while the upper story is ten
feet in the clear. The house when
finished will present much the
same appearance as the residence
of James Morgan in this city except
that a Queen Anne ludow will be
placed in tho corner of the parlor
between two Dorches instead of one
porch extending around ihe two
front sines of the building. 'I here
will be a 54 x, 75 inch French Plate
glass in the, wi.ndow.. The"' parlor
and hall, .are., to, be finished with
silver pine, while the sitting room
and bed rooms aie to be finished
with California redwood. Joseph
Allison has charge of the construc
tion and Ihe finishing material is
ln'ing furnished by the Cornelius
sash and door factory.
About, three weeks ago we had
the pleasure of visiting tlie south
ern part of this county and we are
free to confess that two years has
wrought a wonderful transformat
ion. New Houses and barns have
been erected, new fields with broad
acres have been cleared. Lumber
ing and wood cutting seems to have
been the principle industry hereto
fore, but as the farms are opened
up new industries are being started
and pushed to perfection. Last
winter articles of incorporation were
filed for the organization of a pickl
ing and preserving works with a
stock capital of $5000. The stock
was subscribed mostly by farmers
who reside in that locality. The
works are located at Middlcton.
ThcbuildiiiL' is 55 by 70 feet one
story and basement. Imagine our
surpise when we stepped in to find
tons and tons of cucumbers ready
for pickling and hundreds of bar
rels all ready in pickle, Ihr pick
ling season hart , then just opened,
and befoie the season is over many
hundreds of barrels the finest cu
cumber pickles ever put up will
be ready for the market. Then a
large amount of Cauliflower and
cabbage will be preserved. The
former pickled and tho latter made
into sourkrout such as only Mr.
Winters and Commisioner Keasonor
know how to make. The "Germ in
pickle" put up by this firm is the
best ever put up in this county.
A cooper shop is in connection and
the kegs, firkins, barrels and huge
tanks are there manufactured from
native lumber obtained from the
forests near by. A good price iB
paid for pickles and a neat little
sum will be realized from the sale
of cucumbers, cabbage and cauli
flower. In all about 160 acres of
these vegtables have been planted
and are beinjr successfully harves
ted and preserved.
J. I. Knight of this place, Peter
P. Gates of Lafayette Geo. Moore
and Dr. Mashaw of McMlnnville,

The following is the report of a com- ;,
mittee appointed to investigate the ques
tion of Hedge Fences in Oregon, a plan
ted and cared for by the Oregon Hedge
Fence Company:
Agent9 of the Oregon HedgeCcmpany
were lately in our settlement, making
very enticing statements in regard to the
Osage Orange Fences, as planted and
raised hv them. Representing onr large
community, we went out last week and
inspected, first, an Osage Fence planted
at Dairy, Folk county , some sixteen year
ago and grown wild since. Last spring
the Company took it in hand, trimnMtt
both root and stnlks, which ther in
clined at an angle of 45 drgees and aol
idly wired. The result is that the here
tofore obnoxious brush has become in-,
six months' time, both a solid fence and
beautiful hedge. - ,-
F'rom Dairy we went over Ho Salem,
where we took a glance at the beautiful
state buildings: nnd then drove out to
see another old Osage Feace, planted al
most thirty years ago.' tast fall it bad
been given in charge of the Oregon
Fence Company, and it is giving to the
owner now the satisfaction afforded by
the one at Dairy. It was, however, our
special intention to take a (rood look at
ma i newy planted hedges, to see what we
troui tne company's

I in nnv. this vrar. Of the latter setting
only forty-five plants have been killed
by the unusual droughts of this season,
while the others have grown from eight
to sixteen inches, notwithstanding the
poverty of the soil, which consists of
mere gravel than loam, yet the advan
tages of fall planting wer evidenced by
the rank growth of the former hedge,
that, as an average, isovertwo feet high, '
and without any dead plants.
We are of the opinion that the Com
pany's live fence will prpve a complete
success and that, after three years' '.
growth, they will turn pigsand all kinds,
of stock; in fact, that they will fully be?
as represented by the Company's agents.
After having noticed how the roots are
trimmed and cared for, we further think
that there is no danger of their sprout
ing forth are becoming a nuisance on the
adjacent soil.
We finally feel pleased to state that, aa '
far as we conld find out from parties in
Salem, the Oregon Hedge Company, is a
legitimate and reliable institution and
its officers have all the appearances of
pertect gentlemen.
