Yours Truly, H. C. BURNS. 8 The farmers all over the country count amongst their heaviest expenses to run the farm, the lumber bill. All are un doubtedly interested to learn of a medi um to reduce the same at ¡east to half its former cost. This medium is Carboline- um Avenarius, a wood preserving paint based on 25 years’ experience. Many are of the opinion that paint, tar and linseed oil w ill preserve the wood against rot and decay. These coatings only form an air tight cover, but <lo not destroy the albu- minum parts of the wood, which always start the rot. The coalings with above mentioned materials prevent the evapo ration of the woo<l and the consequence is dry rot. Carbolineiun Avenarius, on the contrary, penetrates deeply into the wood and destroys all present decay mat ters. The Carbolineum Avenarius is ap plied with a brush and imparts a nut brown color to the wood. It is used on the farms for painting barns, granaries, shingles, silos, posts, bridges, chicken coops, etc., and all woodwork above and below the ground. For hop poles it is especially valuable, as one setting of poles treated with Carbolineum Avenarius will be practically indestructible and will staml for u natural lifetime without being replaced. Carbolineum A venarius is also the most radical remedy against chicken lice. One coat applied to the inside of llm chicken coop will keep it clean from vermin. Kerosening and whitewashing, which has to he repeated every month, is done away with and ex ponses for sul phur and insect powder lire saved. Who ever desires further information about Carbolineum Avenarius should write to O. O. H odson , Agent, McMinnville, Or. The Speech Will Begin About 9:30 a. m. Whether you agree politically with Mr. Bryan or not, come and hear him. It will be one of the opportunities of your life. LAFAYETTE. 8 8 Noutliera l*ii< Hie la Fostering An other Industri.

Ferris, who shot John Wardle on the Ilruithwait farm north of this city about 16 years ago, is the same fellow who killed another man about two weeks ago in the state of Washington, and who is now ill jail at Goldendale awaiting trial for murder, W. M. War dle of this city saw the account of the last crime in the Oregonian, and he was led to write the sheriff who has the pris oner in charge, to ascertain if he was the same criminal who shot bis father. He is satisfied from the description tbut it is the same man. Ferris shot Wardle be cause the latter refused to sign a deed to some land, now owned by E. M Greeley, until Feri is would pay back J20 Wardle had loaned him. Ferris drew his gun and said be would put Wardle w here he wouldn't need his signature, and shot him in the center of the breast, the bullet passing clear through Wardle's body. Wardle was sick with the wound for over a year. He is now 86 years old, and at times can feel pain due to the wound of sixteen years ago. The sheriff writes that Ferris is likely to pay the penalty for his latest clime. He claims self-de fense, but it is known that he rode thirty miles to kill an unarmed man. For his first crime Ferris was placed in jail at Lafayette, but effected his es cape before he was tried. He has since served ten years in the Washington pen itentiary for horse stealing.

Odall attended the soldier’s funeral in Portland laat funday. In addition to I lie development of the dairy business in the Willamette valley, the Southern Pacific, through its general freight and passenger agent, C. H. Markham, is now interesting itself in the possibilities of the poultry industry. Mr. Markham is of the opinion that this branch of farming is one which can be made most profitable, and thinks that it w ill pay farmers generally to take it up, either in connection with other branches of farming, or as a business by itself. On this matter, he said to an Oregonian man recently: “Speaking of diversified farming, the raising of chickens for market is one which ought to receive attention at the hands of our farmers. Dining the year 1899 there was shipped from Kansas and Nebraska to California over this com pany’s lines 224 carloads of poultry. The handling of these shipments requires ears of special construction, for Which a heavy rental is charged in addition to the freight rate. The loss in transit is considerable, ns is also the cost of feed ing and expenses of a man in charge. “The rate from Kansas and Nebraska to California is $1.75 per 100 pounds, or |35O per car. The average number of chickens to a car is about 4000, weighing aliout four pounds each, but the freight charge is based on a minimum of 20,000 pounds. The coat of laying shipments down in California, therefore, is not less than 3 cents per pound, equal to 12 cents for each chicken, or $1.44 per dozen. "Chickens are selling in Portland to day fm from |4.50 to $5 per dozen, and 1 am informed that a coop of choice ones sold this morning lor $5 50. This would seem to indicate that our home market is not being adequately supplied. “The freight from Oregon Io Nan Fran cisco is not one-half what it is from Kan sas and Nebraska, and as a matter of fact express service can be obtained for as low uh $1.50 per 100 pounds. “Climatic conditions are very much in favor of Oregon, and there is no reason w by < fregon chickens should not replace those from Kansas and Nebraska in the California market. Ae is well known, chickens do not thrive in California, there being some adverse climatic con dition. We will tilwave have at our very doors a market for our surplus poultry.’’ A Pleasant AVeildlng.
