M. W. Miller is poorer by over fifty head of cattle than be was last Fall, while W. G. McDonald and G. M. Bilyeu have lost a great many. It has been, in almost every instance, the best steck that has died. Stock that has been kept in good condition with plenty of hay and mil) feed get so weak that they simply lie down and die, while others that have been turned out in a paatu e where it is thought they could’nt live, have survived the storms and are now gaining some. It’s a queer condition of things and tho only rea son advanced ro far is that there has been ap. unusual searcity of grass and that dry fed cattle have «tied simply for the want of some thing green.

Thomas Smell is loading wood for the Oregon City pulp mill this week John Kinzer had the misfortune to cut his band badly last week. The immediate future is to see the rural telephone, a fixture In eve ry well ordered community. The rural phone is coming, because it is an iuexorable sequenco of eternal fitness. A few dollars of wire and phone, and a trifle for switching prlvi'eges place the .farmer in in stant communication with neigh bors, with to vn, with distant city. The need of the hour is made known by the effort < f a moment. The iso lation that has driven millions from farm to town is removed by an in vestment so small in comparison with the benefit, that it is a bauble. By the rural phone, ii convi-nience is swiftly transformed into <•<> i-.’eni- ence, and the sountry m.id - m re sponsive to the throb of progr.-ss as is the city.

Excitement soon ran rampant, and a volunteer company was so"n organized to go to i he front.

A« « result of his work ground the northern coast of Green land, the geographical boundaries of the great island of the northern he»mi«- phere are now defined with scientific accuracy. The only break in th« ooaat line consicla of a short length of un- «urveyed. land between Ind-ependefied bay—ao named by Peary at the time of its disoovery, nine years ago—and Cape Bismarck, on the east coast of Greenland. Thus the explorations of Greenland, which have been in prog ress now for a thousand years past, are praetically completed by Peary'c arduous labors and thoroughly scien tific methods. His work, stated in de tail, consists of surveying that portion of th« coast line of Melville bay on the west of Greenland; a survey of the en tire northwestern, north and north eastern coast as far south as Lndepend- ' ence bay; and the accurate mapping j out of the channel which extends through Smith’s sound to the Arctic ocean on the north coast of Greenlaud. Peary has also traveled 2,400 miles on the great inland ice cap, and has lo cated its extreme northern limits; twice he has crossed Grinnell Land, and he has also given us an accurate location of its western shore to a point considerably south of existing sur veys. It is true that other explorers have traveled further north than he; but their work, although of grunt sci entific interest, and carrying perhaps more of the elements of the spectac ular, has not given to the world such a considerable increase in its geograph ical knowledge as results from Peary’s Latest travels. Peary has also done great service to arctic exploration by proving that his theories as to the be^t method of trav eling are correct. He set out on thi^ last trip with the conviction that, if the north pole is ever to be reached, it .n>ust be done with the cooi ration of the natives and-with the extensive u<e of dc.r'3 :.-.d .\v’o.r>.
