of collectors of custom would naturally
follow and this would again save millions
of the taxpayers’ money. All the rail
roads of the country could be controlled
by on«* man, a general superintendent, to
be elected or appointed by the president
and be a cabinet officer. His salary need
not be any more than $10,000 a year
whereas now there are about six hun

staff of costly officers, the presidents
drawing salaries of $50,000 and more.
C. Wood Davis in the August, 1891,
A ret. a estimates the saving from this
source to be at least $25,000,000. If the
nation owned and controlled the railways
freight and fares would be the same for
all distances. A person could travel one
thousand miles as cheap as ten miles.
Would anybody be wronged? Is this
unjust?
No, this would giye all our citizens an
equal chance, would equalize land values.
It would give the farmer 1000 miles from
a market the same chance with his
brother farmer only five miles from the
same market. The way it is now mill

The struggle for existence becomes

How much

Under such a system all would travel;

Oregon Weather and Crops.
For week ending Tuesday. Sept.13, 1892.]
WESTERN OREGON—WEATHER.
The week opened with threatening
weather in all sections, but the long looked
for and needed rains have been con-
spicious only for their absence, but not
enough even to lay the dust. The re
mainder of the week was attended by
warm, dry and densely siuokey weather
with tolerably cool nights. Although it is
generally conceded that at the present
moment a good rain would prove beneficial
in many respects, yet, heavy rains would
do more harm than good, because all farm
ing operations would probably be para-
lized, so that barring a slight oppressiveness
of tlie atmosphere owing to the dust and
smoke held in suspension and a little heat,
the weather has not been so bad after all
since it has permitted the farmers to bring
most of their harvesting work to a suc
cessful close.
Crops:—Corn is reported as doing
tolerably well under the circumstances.
Oats in Curry county will yield from 40 to
45 bushels to the acre. Hop picking is
about completed in most comities, anti
there is every indication of good prices
being obtained for the crops this year.
CorresjHindents from tbe onion district
report that their crop is being cured rapid
ly. the weather being all that could be de
sired for the purpose. Gardens are not
doing as well as they might if only a
little rain would come to the rescue.
Fruit and tender vegetation in portions
of Lane and Josephine eounties were slight
ly injured by frosts in the early part of the
week.
Prunes are said to be ripening fast in
Yamhill county, where several evaporators
are in full blast. In some sections the
ranges are dryiug up fast and cattle suffer
ing in consequence.
Great forest fires are reported ragging in
Josephine county filling the air with a
dense smoke. It is really a great pity that
so much valuable timber should be'want
only destroyed in this state. But few
people seem to realize that this wholesale
destruction of valuable timber is having a
decide.! effect on the annual amount of rain
fall of western Oregon, but it has as
observation shows.
THE BEST CONDUCTED HOUSE
when they get into the hands of the con
sumer in this town is a matter for con
jecture, and a task that would cause
pleasant thrills in one inclined to mathe
matics. Any one who has ever spent
any .time in the country and made a
proper use of his eyes knows it is the
habit of farmers to keep their eggs un
til they have a certain quantity before
disposing of them.
The farmers may collect the eggs for
an entire week and then dispose of them,
or they may keep them for two weeks
before the huckster gets them. That de
pends entirely upon the number of eggs
which that particular farmer’s hens will
lay in a given period.
The hucksters go about the country
once or twice a week the dealers say.
They gather the eggs here and there,
and when they have gathered a certain
quantity turn them over to the shippers.
The shippers, in turn, hold the eggs
until they, too, obtain a certain quantity
and then consign them to the dealers in
this city. When the eggs get here final
ly the dealers say they have received a
shipment of fresh eggs, and mean it too.
The dealers maintain that an egg two
weeks old in ordinary weather is just as
good as an egg that is not more than
twenty-four hours old. In fact, they
make bold to say they would eat an egg
two weeks old just as soon as one two
hours old, and relish it just as much.—

Au Automatic Cutout.
An new design in automatic cutouts
for electric lighting instruments has re
cently been brought out. The instru
ment is so arranged that the current
passing through the solenoid attracts a
core which is attached to an arm about
which it swings, When the current ex-
ceeds a certain limit the core is drawn
into the solenoid and raises a lever,
which in turn releases the switch and
opens the circuit. If, as in the case of
stationary motors supplied from central
stations, the current is suddenly cut off
when changing from one machine to
another, the circuit is automatically
opened by the tension spring which en
gages the small lever by withdrawing
the core from the solenoid and thereby
raising the lever, which releases the
switch the same as when overloaded.
The tension spring is so arranged that
it can be made to open the circuit for
any predetermined amount of current
One of the main features of the cutout
is that it does away with all fuses,
which is usually a large item of expense
in central stations. It can readily be ap
plied to railroad circuits by using mag
netic blowouts at the switch contact
The cutout has been given practical
tests and found to work very satisfac

EASTERN OREGON—WEATHER
Those of our correspondents who have
been busy harvesting their crops are tiekel-
ed over the fine weather that has prevailed
all the week, which has been so propitious
for farming operations; while others who
have crops still in the ground are earnegtly
praying for a few drops of rain, and it is
quite rational that thev should for in Mor
row countv, for instance, there has l>een
but one little shower of rain since last May.
Tbe temperature has not been very high,
in fact it was about as usual at this time of
year. There has been a goodly amount of
sunshine, though at times the smoke was
so dense as to completely obscure old sol
himself. The nights were particularly cool,
the thermometer hovered around the freez
ing point on several occasions in exposed
places.
Crops:—The weather has been very
favorable for threshing operations, which
are nearly completed bv this time. A
large hay crop is being laid by. Correspon
dents in'the potato growing' districts are
disgusted with the way in which their crop
has turned out. The oat crop in Sherman
county has been secured. Fruit is doing
fairly well, though the cool nights are not
helping it any. Pastures are showing the
ill effects of the long drought and are fast
drying up. Our valuable correspondent at
Ajax informs us that beef is shrinking on
the ranges as grass grows more scarce.
Ely’s Cream Balm is especially adapted
as a remedy for catarrh which is aggravat
