Does Summer FallOwing PayS

A farmer writing to the Willamette
Farmer gives some valuable figures on the
value of summer fallow. We commend
bis statement to the attention of grain
growers: Many good farmers suppose
summer following loss of time and Ia
Dor. think it not simply gain in time,
but great saving of labor, and benefit t.
the land. Let Us look at it. Say you
grow 20 bushels per acre every year in
succession. You plow once and harrow
twice, that Is, you cross harrow. You dc
this labor for 20 bushels Of wheat. Now,
suppose you fallow your ground and pas
ture 1t with sheep, the past'lrage pays for
blowing and the manure for rent, or per
centaee, on the otherwise idle land. You
have thus lost the use of your land one
summer, but have been paid for it. Now.
in the fall you SOW your land free from
weeds, and well manured; as conse.
ouence. then you grow, the following
summer, 40 bushels per acre. You not
only have doubled the quality your wheat
being plumper, and heavier TO the bushel.
Have you lost anything? No. You have
saved one half the labor, and greatly i'm
proved your land. Then, summer fallow-
ling pays-don't 1t? 1t farmers only
thought ~. it would add immensely to our
rural wealth.

Experiments in the acclimatization
of salmon in Australia seeIu likely
for the present at least,to fail. Not
withstanding all the care and atten-
ton that have been paid to the ova at
Ercildown, only five fish had, ac-
cording to the Melbourne Argus,
been hatched up to the middle Of
April. OF these, however, only a
single one could be seen, and that
was the first one hatched. This SAL
mon looked healthy and lively, but
the others had in some eunaccountable
way disappeared. It was fondly
hoped that, although not perceptlbie
to the naked eye, they still remained
in the Matching boxes. and, as there
were still $50 eggs left, some more
young fry might yet be obtained.
At the ice works in Melbourne there
were still a few thousand eggs which
looked well. Some people who had
seen them believed that the eyes of
the youngfry were Becoming visible,
but this sanguine view was not
shared by others, who were unable
to detect anything resembling those
organs in the painfully impassive
ova. In the meantime few hundred
pore ova, which had been telegraph
ed for to England, were expectedto
arrive shortly in the colony.

IN short time the tickling in the nos
trils and sneezing ceased. and next
morning all traces of coryza had COM
pletely disappeared. Renewed experl~
ments upon himself and others confirm
ed his belief in the efficacy of this rsm-
edy. and he has described it at length
in the Lancet. He finds the most suita-

WELL On her last trip
to this port from San Francisco, the
Dakota was in a dense fog all the
way from Point Reyes to Sooke In
let, distance exceeding six hun
dred miles, during which time the
officers were unable to get an ObSer-
walton. At noon on Wednesday
Capt. Mors, detected the faint sound
of steam whistle on the starboard
bow and rightly conjectured it to be
the one on Tattoosh Island at the
mouth of the Straits. He took his
course from that and when the fog
cleared away at sunset, his gallant
ship was abreast of Sooke with Race
Rocks plain in sight. He is not only
a good commander himself, but very
fortunate in the choice of his suboc-
dinates, for every department of the
ship worked in perfect harmony
We don't like to travel in the fog,
but when we do, we shall want to
travel on the Dakota with Captain
Morse.

golden harvests of the great north

of light-draft steamers running from
here to the head of the Skagit val
ley, bringing grain here as the most
accessible shipping point. He will
see flour mills in operation here,
equal in alacity to the celebrated
Starr Mills at Vallejo, California.
He will see extensive foundries in
operation to build, equip and repair
these steamboats,, railroads and mills
that will be the auxiIiaries of our
expansive commerce. 1t is dream
of the future, but it is not an idle
one. We have been absent from
here four years. during which we re-
turaed for a brief visit of three
weeks, last year. We note greater
changes-for the better-in the ap-
pearance of the city in the past thir-
cen months, than in all the pre-
vious three years. John NJ. Col

Peru, it seems, can no longer lay
claim to monopoly of this unrivaled

An old woman died recently in Bris-
tol, England, who owned, among other
property. very valuable collection of
studies from the nude by well known
artists. A married niece in tho house
at the time of her death thought these

moment her aged relation died burned
them up. When the will was opened,
the niece learned that her only legacy
was the naughty pictures which she had
burned, and which were worth about
$4,000.

THE sKATIE FLIcKINGER. This
vessel lay at the foot of Beale street
San Francisco, when the Dakota left
and had nearly finished discharging
her cargo. As we are likely to have
a spell of southerly weather for
some time, we may soon expect her
return.
The BA1L.-Everybody who atten-
ded the ball at Blakely, came home
tired out, They danced faster than
chain lightning and harder than a
horse could kick with all four shoes
on one foot. Those boys over there
wouldn't allow anybody to come
home and say they didn't have a
good time.
LEFT Us.-We lost a pleasant
neighbor to-day, in the person of
Mr.. J. W. Edwards. who has gone
over to the Port Blakely mills as
book-keeper and taken his family
with him. He was for long time
in similar station at Port Madison,
where he won the esteem of all who
had dealings with him, and he car
ries into his new position the good
wishes of many friends.

practice of transposing syllables in

UNWILLING VIs1ToRs.--T The bark
Gem of the Ocean, now on the way
from San Francisco to this port has
on board Two ung hoodlums who
got on the vessel while she lay at
the wharf, expecting to get back to
the city by the steamtug. To their
dismay, however, they found the
tug had hauled ahead of the ship,
instead of towing her alongside.
They will have a pretty extensive
territorial experience before they
again see the gilded spires and man
sard roofs of San Francisco.
GREATLY NEEDED.-One of the most
urgent needs of our city is steam
laundry. operated by white labor. The
Chinese washermen sometimes bring
home clothes entrusted to them for puri-
fcation, and sometimes they do not.
They certainly can thrash shirts into
kite-tails with better grace than any
people living. In San Francisco, how
ever, the steam laund,ies wash and
iron clothing SO cheaply that but few
families do their washing at home. AS
but few families employ domestics here,
we believe that laundry operated on
live and let live principles. would
soon prove bonanza to its projectors.
Many delicate woman, in order to
save dollar or two for her husband,
catches cold over the wash-tub and lays
in the seeds of spell of sickness that
costs enough to pay the family washing
for gear. So there is nothing saved
the long run. In Portland and Salem,
there are laundries in successful opera
ton and we believe that Seattle will
give one wholesome encouragement.
