Of wheat, about fifty samples nave already, been secured.; On ac count of the poor crops the wimples are not what they ougljt to yet bj much work in selecting an 1 culling them, tlie wheat display will be verv creditable. Of oats, a dozen good saui pits, and of barley and other grains an equal number are in the hands of tb committee. So far It lias teen Impos sible to secure a sample of buckwheat, and the committee requests any or all who are in a iosition to do so to fur nish a specimen., in wools, the com mlttee has a number of beautiful spec imens. Unfortunately all of them are very small. In wools tlie county is un usually rich. Some of the finest herds in the atate are In Benton fields and pastures. This industry the commit tee correctly believes should be brought to the front. It Is believed that if one. or two, or half a dozen nicely washed fleeces could be made a part of ths- display that it would be both effectlre and Important. There is said to be nothing In the industrial line more pleasing to look at than a fine Cotswold or Merino fleece nleoly washed, and' the committee suggests thai If any of o;ir sheep growers will supply a fleece each, the scouring will bo attended to and the fleece ls re turned in as good condition as when It came from the hands of the lender. "Iu all, the committee has about loO samples. It is cxiected. from arrange ments already made, that; within the next few days the number will be trebled. Of gteen fruit and vegetables, the contributions "have loen lileral. and of each there are numerous sam ples. The hop display, it Is, ljelieved. will contrast most favorably with counties where yards are, far more numerous. In jellies, preserves and other productions of kindred character u few samples haveieon received, and more are promised. The committee exjs'ct to secure a convenient room and to place tlrese and oilier simples ou display In Corvallls a day or twole- fore shipment to the fair. The loading of the car for transporting tlie display to Salem will take pace about the 13th or J4th." Tounterfeiting Was once punishable by. -'death in England, a fact which h-d a judge in passing sentence upon a man con victed of that crime to say: "1 can hoHl out to you no 'mercy here, end 1 urge you to make preiratiou for another world, where I hoi you u.ay obtain that mercy Which a due regard Jqi- ttufr ;-nmj of, tuir ihit currenex forbids you to r hoH? for now." 1 bit was certainly severe, and yet coun terfeiting of any nature deserves rig orous puuishiiK'ut.

McCully, of PortUed, Brcioi Man f th Salcaa BulafM-A -Promlslas Oatloofc. J. A. McCully, of Portland, has been put In charge of the Oregon Flax Fib er Association's property here, and will do what he can to ad ta nee the flax growing industry in this vicinity. The fiber now In the mill is being bal ed for shipment to Portland, where. a good raafict Is found for it. Two car loads of flax from the Ladu farm, near Portland, was stored In the mill yesterday and it Is probable this will be put through the mill some time dur ing the winter. The seed will Ik? keit until next spring when it will lie given out to the farmers, to sow, who wish to raise flax for the Association. -i Mr, McCully Is a man of long ex perience in flax culture and is very' hoiefui:of Its future in this state. Ie says there Is not a thing to preveat Oregon iHH-omlng a heavy flax produc ing state, as the climate is adapted its production and the quality of the soil insures a liber that is hard to ex cel. Tlie flax Industry Is meeting with favor among farmers, where mills arjc established. There is one In success ful operation at S Io, and the following taken from the Scio News, will Indi cate to what extent tlie Industry has grown in that section: . "The work or pulling the flax in thje Muukers and MeOonald fields wis completed Saturday evening last, and ready for threshing. The crop on the Mnnkers place averaged n little over n ton and a quarter to the acre and on the McDonald place the straw was" a little heavier and weighed more to the acre. This gives the farmer a much iM'tter price for his crop than he. could make raising wheat at the preseut prices. The flax crop- In the future will be much letter than this year owing to the fact that tlie farmer lief er -understands what is modd to make it a success. The price paid for tin straw Is Itcttcr than that paid for a crop of wheat raised on tlie same ground, and the work of preparing the M CI Efforts Made to Open Negotiations.

This uni que publication Is owned, edified, print ed and controlled by this prisoner, a l."i-year man, and Editor Spragu? has found considerable difficulty ilu keep ing the paper going ou aeeouiut of the warclty of fuuds, being compelled to rely entirely on tha receipts from sub- scrlptlou, at 25 cents a year, and the donations of kind friends : for the wherewithal to pay his bills. The ob ject of the paper Is certainly a laudable one. as set forth by the editor la the following language: "The object is to publish this journ al in connection with other mission ary work done by prisoners within this institution. It will coutaiu u re port of all. missionary work done by tm prisoners when a list of i the same can be obtained. j "It will, also contain a few reports concerning the prison that every citi zen of the state ought to know. But its principal aim will be real active missionary work among the unfortun ate class."
