A large number of prominent farmers, horticltural ists, stockmen aud scientific men were iii attendance. Essays on scientific and practical subjects were read and discussed by gentle meu present. The second day's fctrDOiCii it ti.l ujjt,ut.u ' mu j iji.iiiu rf a nnner rmnn tlie nrost imnnrt. w. I- -j- - f I tant subject presented during the session, which will be read with interest. The report from the Independence West Side says; Hon. J. H. Ilawley, of McCoy, ! read a paper on the "Future Possibilities of the American Farmer" from a standpoint of present surroundings. We are met with the question he said "JT'hatcan we do to ameoliorate the condidion of the American farmer V" That farming is the most important branch of business and one in which all may engage who wish. That from the farm have sprung some of our brightest minds and grandest statesman. Asks what are the qualifications of j the successful farmer. That edts. cation is necessary in all other branches, bat when men fail there, they think they cau farm, wholly without instruction. That is the cause of many failures in farming. That until recent years our govern ment has never given are presenta tive to the agricultural class in the cabinet of the nation; that the government nor the people have never shown a proper appreciation of the importance of this work. That the necessity of education for the farmer is becoming more apparent every day. Speaks of the wheat markets and the steady decrease in price. That the limit ed market and the large supply is the cause and from this we should seek a remedy. That making our nation the kitchen garden of Eu rope would suit statesman - there, but we Americans see that to make of our country an agiiculural country means ultimate bankrupt cy. That the diversified manu facturing industries are getting in such a condition that not only is our home market supplied but we have facilities for competing in foreign markets. Speaks of the the home market for the producer aud that protection of this market is to the benefit of the farmer. That revision and changes should be made in our protection laws, but the principal is in itself corrct That the Farmers Alliance and the Knights of Labor are discussing these political questions. Thajq; the farmer is beginning to see that in union there is strength, and that united demands for justice will be listened to and wrongs remedied. Does not think that Mr. Bellamy's theory of doing away with individ ual responsibility will eeer be realized. That a great deal of the present unrest among the agricult ural classes is a mistrust of each other. That a change for the better is about to be inaugurated. discussion. . Mr. Carter, of Wells, asked what change he would recommend to have a rotation of crops. That he wants to know of a change which lie may adopt now. Mr. Ilawley said that new con ditions evolye slowly. That we cannot change in a moment. That the wheat farmer cannot drop wheat and take up fruit culture in a single season. That we know that we are raising a surplus of wheat and depending upon the foreign market for the price, and we do not know that wheat will remain at sixty cents; it may de cline to fifty cents a bushel, and we must prepare for that period. That we have considered Western Oregon a wheat country and East ern Oregon a stock country, but the conditions are changing. That Western Orgeon is becoming a stock country and Eastern Oregon the wheat country. That our land is becoming too valuable for wheat. That we must turn our lands into the production of stock. Mr. Carter was not satisfied with the answer. Said he wanted some thing tangible for the present, right now. That some of his neighbors stall-fed some cattle, and after getting them in condition could sell them at a profit Some say, let the farmers get some Jersey cows and start creamerieo. That there had been several cream eries started in Oregon. Califor nia butter still comes in, and the creameries are shut down. Some say raise hogs. Plant corn and raise hogs, but haven't we tried hogs and lost money. Spoke of raising fruit That he had tried small fruit and could not sell it The little producers on the out skirts of the towns supply the market aud the farmer is left. Wm. Jones, of Independence, said that he found mixed farming to pay. That he had decided this year to raise some flax which he has contracted to sell to a Portland oil mill at $1.50 a bushel cleaned. That he can raise 25 bushels to the acre. That he has raised 500 bushels of potatoes to the acre and even at 25 cents a bushel there is ruoney iu it. That at $1 a bushel fur potatoes a man can pay for a farm iu one year. That after a j crop of potatoes you cau raise 40 j bushels of wheat to the acre. That the raisiug of hogs will pay That now is the time to sell fat hogs. Prof. Arnold of the Agricult ural college extended an invitation to the farmers to visit that institu tion, and explained the different departments. That an experiment bulletin is issued quarterly and these are mailed to all farmers who apply. That the next bulletin will be devoted to fruit pests. Hon. D. 0. Quick, of Suver, said that he had visited th agricultur al college and could endorse the school. That agricultural colleges are a new thing among us. That since the government aids the colleges it is enabled to do its works in a much better manner. Spoke of the distaste of farmer's boys to remain on the farm. That education will show them how honorable and independent is this calling and it may be made both profitable and pleasant. GENERAL SEWS.

In Columbia county, on April 1, the dead bodies of Henry Sanders aged 19 and Miss Delia Edington aged 17, were found in the road, between the residences of the parents. The cause which led to the tragedy is a mystery, as noth ing is known of other than friendly relations existing between them. Young Sanders had been an inmate of the Edington family, having worked on the farm for several months, and was well liked by his employer. About Janusry 28, a family con sisting of husband and wife named Frederickson, were missing from their home on a homestead near Bay Center, in Pacific county. A capsized boat was found and a report was circulated that they had gone out on the bay and were drowned. Suspicion was aroused which finally led to the arrest of George Rose aud Jack Edwards. A confession has been obtained which implicated two others, Ed ward Gibbons and one Jones, a barber. The bodies of their vic tims have been discovered where they had been secreted. It is supposed that the same parties have been concerned in previous mysterious dissappearances in that county. OREGON. The furniture factory belonging to G.
