The report ef the treasurer wps recieved after which the retiring pre; ident Dr. Smith delivered the an nual nddrcBs in which he reviewed the work of the year, the progress of medical and surgicel science, and looked with justifiable pride to the bright prospects of our society for the future. A vote of thanks of the society was given the retiring officers, after which Dr. Crang the newly elected president-took the chair. He ex pressed himself as grateful for the honor conferred, and would wield the gavel, to the best of bis ability, ever keeping in view the good of the society and an earnest desire in all his rulings to be just and fair to ! each member of this body, Dr. Linklater read the paper for this meeting, the ti le of his subject being "Etiology of Convulsions in Infancy." Tho paper showed mueh research and dwelt at some length on the causes giving rise to these abnormal, conditions in early life. Many authorities were quoted and ideas advanced that held the close attention of the members, and showed their deep interest iu the subject chosen. Dr. Bailey was called to lead iu tho discussion of the paper. He directed attention . to the impor tance of determining whether con vulsions occurring were peripheral or central, that this was important hot!) as to prognosis and treatment, believes toxines an import ant factor in producing convul sions. Dr. Cole thought this important but that a correct diagnosis could almost always be niado if sufficient care was observed on part of the attending physician. - Thought that by noting whether there was paral ysis or otherwise, we might be able to determine as to tho gravity of the onset. .' Dr. Tamiesie thought that in many eases lo no toxic airenl could the convulsions be ascribed, '"' Dr. Robinson discussed the pa per, citing cases in-practice and thought the subject one that would bear careful study. j Dr. liines made some interesting oopervaiions in 141s discussion ol the subject, after which, Dr. Link later closed the discussion. The president next announced that a motion to adjourn was now in order as the society was to meet next in the hotel de Sloan where the dinner for the annual banquet would next be discussed.

The chimes of wedding bells will soon be heard in these parts so says Madam Rumor. School commenced Monday with Geo. Hull of Hillsboro weild iog the rod of authority. Hon inckine will commenco in this locality about Sept. 4th. The hop crop is lighter this year than usual, but the hops are of better quality. Threshing is almost finished in these parts. Thu farmers report the grain crop light thiB yeiras compared with last., There is very little fruit in this sepiiou, . the yield of apples being light, while plums and prunes are almost a complete failure. For the benilit of your many readers I will give a brief discrip tion of Tigardville and the Bur roundiiig country. It is situated in the extreme south-eastern part of the county, S miles from Port land and 16 miles south-east of Hillsboro. Tigardville is a thriv ing little town consisting of one large merchandise store, belonging to Chas. Tigard.with a large hall overhead belonging to the United Wp'kmen and Odd Fellows, the Grangers have a large hall also, which was erected in 1877. We have two churches viz the Cath olic and Evangelical, one black smith shop, one saw mill, and a number of neat residences. Situated near hero are several large Imp yards principal among them bf-ing the van! of Phriv On hum consist ing of :i) acres, Chas. Tigard con sisting of abmu 30 acres, also sever al others whose names I did not learn. A number of the farmers have large orchards which ari in a healthy condition and bid fair to bear well in the future. The soil in this vicinity is very productive and the crop average will equal that of any in the county. Being situated near Portft nd, Tigardville is in a prosperous condition, and money is more plentiful than in the Western end of the county. The hop yards will give employment to about 200 pickers comro ed of the people of the neighborhood and will put into circulation something like 13000 iu this vicinity. Our little town is admirably Situated on gentle rolling ground," surrounded by a large prosperous farming com munity where peace and plenty reign supreme. DILLEY DOINGS. i Elder 8. H.

The following is the report of a com tnittee appointed to investigate the que tion of Hedge Fences in Oregon, as plan ted and cared for by the Oregon Hedge Fence CompRpY:, Agents -oMfie Oregon Hedge Company were lately" in our settlement, making very enticing statements in regard to the Osage Orange Fences, as planted and raised by them. Representing our large community, we went out las, week and inspected, first, an Osage Fence planted at Dairy, Polk county, some sixteen year ago and grown wild since. Last spring the Company took it in band,- trimmed both roots and stalks, 'which they in' clined at an angle of 45 dergees and sol idly wired.' The result' is that the here tofore obnoxious brush has become in six months' time, both a solid fence und beautiful hedge. - . From Dairy we went over to Salem where we took a glance at the beautiful state buildings: and then drove oat to ', sei'nother old Osage Fence, planted al- - -most,-thirty' years ago. Last fall it had been givejr in, charge of the Oregon Fence Corflpariy, and it is giving to the , owner now the satisfaction afforded by the one at Dairy. , It was, however, our special intention' to tttkea good look aV newly planted hedges, to see what we '"' could expect from the company's promises. About twenty, rods of an Osage Orange . .. fence, planted last fall, was then shown' us, and about two hundred more set out ' in may, this year. Of the latter setting only forty-five plants have been killed by the unusual droughts of this season,. ' while the others have grown from eu7ht: to sixteen inches, notwithstanding the -poverty of the soil, which consists of more gravel than loam, yet the advan tages of fail planting were evidenced by3 ' the rank growth of the former hedge, that, as an average, is over two feet high, and without any dead plants. ' We are of the opinion that the Com pany's live fence will prove a complete success and that, after three years' growth, they will turn pigs and 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, a far as we conld find out from parties in Salem, trie Oregon Hedge Company, is a 1 . . , 1 : l , . : 1 legitimate anu reuauie,aiuiuuuu uu its officers have all the appearances of perfect gentlemen. verboort, uugust 27, l94 John Fields, J.
