DOUBLING UP.-Our very popular
and deservedly so-citizens, Frank
Wood and William E Howell, have
''struck hands" and put their two ex-
teilsive stocks of agricultural impIe-
ments and farm goods together, and
now challenge any body to compete
with them in prices. They will sell
the celebrated Russell Thresher and
Nicholas Sheppard Vibrators = OF
which they have a number on hand
at prices that viii astonish the puchas-
ers; also Haines' headers, with Woo rs
improvement tefther ten or twelve foot
cut.l The Walter a. Woods New
Yorker, Excelsior, Seiberlings and
other machines, either mowers or
mowers and reapers combined. The
celebrated Battle Creek, Michigan,
Brass Bearing Wagons, self oiIing and
one third lighter draught thanany other
wagon now in use. Four horses will
pulIas much as six. Also the Coquill-
ard Wagon whose reputation is already
established as being one of the most
durable of farm wagons. They Will
make EXTRAS a speciality, and the
great trouble and inconvenience that
farmers have heretofore experienced
innot being able to obtain Extras for
their machines will now be overcome
-as they are prepared TO supply you
with any required. Sole Agents for
The Gorham Premium Broadcast Seed
er and Cultivator combined, For sue
cess of this Seeder where it has been
introduced, it has been awarded the
highest merit that practical farmers can
bestow. Particular attention paid to
repairing all kinds of Agricultural
Implements and mill work. Cylinder

general range of blacksmithing done.
IMPoRTANT. TO PLEASURE SEEKEes-
We this week received call from
Mr. ". P. Finley, proprietor of the fa-
nous Soda Springs, commonly known
as tsLower Soda,u on the w. V. & G.
NJ. Wagon Read, and he informs US
that, Notwithstanding the backward
ness of the season, many pleasure and
health seekers are aIrea'lly vending
their way into his region of country
The road is quite passable and the
weather in the Cascades is much more
pleasant than here in the Valley at
present. Nr. Finley has recently
erected very large barn and other
improvements at his place. He also
has hay, grain, ETC., in abundance,
which will be furnished at cheaper
rates than the same can be purchased
in this market. He keeps a full supply
of butter, milk, fresh vegetables, gro
ceries and everything usually required
by tourists and travellers. His Springs
afford the most beautiful and delight
fIl resort on the coast. It is really
worthSa good slice of ones lifetime to
spend a month or two in the wild, rug
ged and picturesque region of the
Cascades in which these Springs are
located,
THE OcHoco MINEs.-From letters
this week received by parties in this
city, from the Ochoco mines, We learn
that disappointment at the poor pros
peet for "richnesst is beginning to
manifest itself over there, and that
many persons are returng home, dis
couraged. However, the greater num-
ber5of those who took up claims are
still working them, but as yet without
any flattering symptoms of ''pay dirt
None of the claims are as yet paying,
though the bed rock has not been
reached in any instance. Altogether,
the prospect for rich diggings in ocho-
co are not sufficiently fiattering to
warrant any one in going crazy about
them.
APoLoGETIc. We went to press
this week one day earlier than usual,
SO as to give our boys in the Office the
benefit of the Fourth,s festivities
Therefore, if our paper does not appear
either as interesting or newsey as
usual, you will know the reason and
forgive the omissions.
