Seattle and WaIIa WalIa Raj
road,

Every day we hear the questions ask
ed: What has the Company done? What
is it doing? What does it propose to do?
That Company first met on the 21st
of July last. Since then it has perfect
ed its organization; obtained all needful
Territorial legislation; enrolled over 100
stockholders, and to- day owns over g..
500 acres of valuable lands, including
81 miles Of water front and over 600
city lots. 1t has sent two agents to
Washington to procure legislation and
look after its interests; those agents re-
port that everything asked will be read
lily granted, except the County aid bill,
the fate of which is as yet uncertain.
1t has employed competent engineer
and through him has obtained from the
N. P. r. R. Co. complete copies of the
maps. profles and field notes of surveys
which cost the N. P. Co. over $4,000;
and has caused additional surveys to be
made, thus giving it complete actual
survey of the entire route from Seattle
to Walla Walla. Their engineer is now
busily engaged in making detailed re-
port of the cost and probable earnings
of the road, which the company shortly
expects to lay before the public. They
are now preparing, as rapidly as posi-
be, for the construction of the first Sec
ton of the road; and will, if they have
the hearty corporation Of our citizens,
have that section complete, and the cars
laden with coal aud other products COM
ing into our city by the first of Septem-
Der next. ~

Cost per mile.

Total cost per mile. ............ 81. 900
1t is estimated that $4,000 additional
per mile will equip the railroad for busi-
ness. which will be 1000 per mile.
Here is basis upon which very
close estimate may be made of the cost
of the first thirty miles of the Seattle
and Walla Walla railroad, making the
proper allowances for the difference in
the two routes. The lay of the land is
not materially different. The Iowa
route is over rolling prairie, destitute
of wood and water, which materially
increases the expenses for ties, bridge
timbers and culverts; our route has an
abundance of timber for all railroad
purposes upon the line of the road, and
living springs every mile. Whether the
timber would compensate for the clear
ing and grubbing, we have no means OF
determining; but it is certain that IN the
expense for water stations there would
be saving of $500 mile. allowing one
water station every ten miles, at cost
of 5000. There is also saving of $500
a r,ile on this route on the right of way.
which is conceded. All things being
equal between the two routes under
consideration, the following estimate
will approximate the cost of grading
and superstructure per mile for the first
80 miles:

MukeIteo Correspondence.

MUKEL1Eo, W. T., April 20, 1874.
EDITOR DIsPATCH:-I arrived at this
beautiful spot last night, after trip of
six days surveying and improving my
claim, which is located some 16 miles
this side of your city. My claim is
timber claim, and it is wonder to me
some one had not located on it before
the timber, Oh Jehu! its thick, big, long,
and clear and free from punk, pin knots,
couk or rot, and within three fourth of
a mile from salt water. 1t is my honest
and humble opinion, backed by Puget
Sound truth, that there is sixty million
feet on the 100 acres, and the timber is
so large I could not afford to build a log
house, but was forced to put up brick
one out of shakes, the dimentions of
which, refer to Noah's ark, as seen in
the old fashioned Bible, with bird fly
ing out of the chimney with saw-log
in its mouth. The land looks good; the
soil is deep, as far as could see into it.
I think shall commence putting in the
usual crop as required by law in order
to prove up, to ,oit: clootchman, gun.

shall raise the devil the first crop, if
we don't have drouth. All my neigh
bors have mortgages on their houses,
but don't think mortgages will shed
rain as well as attachments. so I thing
I'll get some one who knows how, to put

The crop at Mukilteo looks well, and
the place presents delightful appear
ance. 1t ought to be larger place than
it is, and believe will be some day for
its geographical and typographical po-
sition is decidedly favorable, and it com
mands the best agricultural portion of
the Territory-S Swinomish, steilaguam-
| ish and Snohomish. The timber land
around it that is accessible to salt water
certainly is greater than at any other
point on the Sound, while its fisheries
cannot be beat anywhere.
leave tomorrow for Snohomish on
an official tour-that is, if you call
climbing logs. falling over sticks,
scratching myself on DEVILS clubs, and
other infernalities, trying to survey

EGGS NnT MATCHING

Among the many reasons given why
high-priced eggs, especially those which
have Travelled by express, are not cer-
tain to hatch, none are more plausible
than thst given by the editor of the
London Farmer He says:
High-priced eggs donot always hatch,
for we have tried them and know. We
set two dozen under orthodox hens of
amiable disposition, that knew how to
stick to the nest, and did it for twenty
three consecutive days. 1t wasn't the
fault of the expressman, for they did
not come by express, They were not
old. We knew the yard where they
were laid, and they were fresh eggs.
There was a pound rooster with
the hens that laid them. And the re-
suit of the Matching was one thorough
bred Buff Cochin chick. Now, there
are twenty reasons why they did not
hatch-beginning with this. that the
hens were kept confined In too small
yards. We do not know what physio-
logical laws are violated, that hens
kept in close confinement do not breed
well. Perhaps it is because they are
fowls Of the air, and need a good deal
of that article, and plenty of mother
earth to make them thrifty. The fact
is pretty well established IN the expert
ence Of pOultIy-men. There is no
trouble of this kind with hens running
at large.

MISUNDERSTANDING WORKS

There are several establishments of
this sort in Australia, and late num-
Der of the Queenslander gives an ac-
count of visit to the one at Oakley
Greek, near Toowoomba- Here there
are put in cans each day 375 wethers,
$50 ewes, or % head Of cattle. The
meat is carefully and expeditiously cut
from the bones of the slaughtered car
cases, then cut up into pieces and put
into an oven for steaming, or ''blanch-
ing" as it is called. 1t is steamed
about half an hour, the escaping juices
being afterwards boiled down into
"beef extract" The meat, after steam
ing, is weighed and pressed into tin
cans, the covers of which are then put
on and soldered, small hole being left
for the escape of steam. These cans
are put into the retorts, or steaming
boxes, where they are left until
thoroughly cooked. The hole in the
cover is then soldered up, and the cans
are cooled suddenly under a shower.
bath, in order to create vacuum in
each can. Those failing to shrink can
be thrown out, and those perfectly
sealed are then put up for expectation.
Most Of the canned meat goes to Eng

THE vAsrNEss OF OUR DOMAIN.

We get some idea Of the vaStness of our
country from the statistics furnished by
Mr.. Dodge, of the Department Of Agricul.
tUre. Less than One-fifth of the entire area
and only one-iOurth of this farm area is
titled or moved. Heavy as our wheat crop
is, it occupies an area less than the surface
of South Carolina. Our national crop,
maize, covers Il territory not larger than
Virginia, and tie potato crop could grow on
less than the area ofDelaware. The cOun-
try is capable Of producing food for the
sup ort of population almost without
number. There is no danger Of our being
overcrowed for centuries. Let las remem-
Der this fact when the thought is suggested
to us that it is time to discourage immi-
grafton.

FANATICIsH RUSSIA.

\ correspondent writes TO the Pal Nal

mel, in East Prussia, from Russia. In
WOrnO, a Russian town, a male servant
suddenly disappeared from the house Of his
employer, Roman Catholic priest, and it
did not occur 20 anybody that he, like
many Others, might have run away to escape
from military service, TO which. according
to TIE new regulations of Russia, every
young man on reaching his twentieth
year is liaGle. The priest told his congre-
CATION that the absentee had presented
himself to him IN dream. covered with
awful gasheS, and related 10 him that the
Jews had murdered him, and had sent his
blood TO Jerusalem. The Jewish towns
people, in consequence of this ridiculous
statement, are in danger of being murdered.
The petty magnates ofthe town do not stir
in the matter, and leave the mob to deter
mine the ease Is may be thought proper. The
Governor Of the province, who has been ap-

ed In masses, and by now dividing them,
the numbers may be greatly increased.
Cut the fieshy roots with sharp knife,
leaving few buds on each piece, and
set ont again in rich soil, covering
slightly with leaves. Many other her.
bscious perennials may be treated in
the same way-such as hollyhocks,
larkspurs, colnmhines, campannlas,
spireas, verr meas, phloxes, pentstem-
ons, irises, dicentfas, etc. When the
leaves die down and become dry; they
may be densely covered with
leaves, when they remain partly
green, too dense a cover will
cause them to rot, and in such cases a
protection by evergreen branches is
best. All plants after removal and
division are rendered somewhat tender
er hence the reason that a slight coT-
ering is advisable. The shortness of
our springs, and the very early start
which these plants make, render the
present season the best for this r7ofk.
Hardy bulbs are to Be set out at this
time of year for the same reason. The
roots make some growth, and they are
ready for an early start in spring.
Among these are talips, lilies, hya-
cinths, etc. The latter icing slightly
tender, requires 2 dry, well drained
bed. with little coarse sand under
each bulb, and they need some protec-
tion with leaves, held down from blow
ing away by evergreen brush,
