SEATTLE, April II, 1873.
ED. INrELLIGENCER - 1t is graft
fying to know that the Indians OF
the Lower Sound are now superin-
tended by two such gentlemen as
Captain Willoughby of the Neah Bay
Reserve, and DR.. A. n. Marion, of the
Tulalip. The latter gentleman. though
lately from the East, shows that he is
possessed of the qualities requisite for
the place he is in. His administration
of the affairs of Tulalip Reservation, we
venture to say, will be fraught with
much of positive benefit to the Indians
Though the amount of money dis
bursed by him is -ery limited. yet Tu-
lalip looks to-day far more beautiful
than ever before. and no little change
has been wrought in the brief time of
a few months. The Indians are taught
the knowledge of that little sentence.

condition, sanitarily and morally. BY
the wise and economical administration
of DR.. Marion, we NAV look for an un-
usual advance in the better condition of
the indians under his charge, and
many will become producers and be
taught the principles of self-suprort. a
matter Of the utmost Importance to
them. n.

A PRACTICAL ADVANCE

One of the most perplexing socio-po-
litlcal questions of the day is the In
dian question, The Governments pc Icy
on This subject in the past has )een
characterized by many errors, but is
gradually taking more practicable
shape. Those agents who have struck
at the root of the matter, by adopting
the plan of training the Indians to
work, have found the solution of the
difficulty.
From correspondent at the Tulalip
reservation we learn that this healthy
system of Indian reform and civiliza.
ton is being put in practice with good
success there. The saw-mill has been
started up, running three shifts, night
and day. Theagent is having built a
new wharf of two hundred piles. Mr..
Sheriff Stretch. Of Snohomish county,
experimenting the work. The Indians
have been set to work grubbing the
grounds of the reservation. farming,
logging. and making themselves other
wise generally useful. The agent is in.
flexible in requiring payment by them
for all supplies furnished. and allows
no sponging on the Government. Thi.
is the true way. and the only way to
develop manliness and self-relisncc in
the Indians.
This plan of requiring q fair equiva.
lent for value received. though it is
said to give rise TO some natural dis.
satisfaction on the part of the beneti.
Charles, should nevertheless be punctu.
ally adhered to, for it is just the kind
OF discipline that the Indians most
need, and that will result in the most
good to their race.

Making the total number of vessels
entering into and passing out OF Puget
Sound for the year 1877, 992, that re-
ported at Port Townsend. Besides
these, there are number of American
vessels sailing to and from our ports
under coasting license obtained at San
Francisco, and consequently do not
enter or clear at our Custom House. A
good many vessels also sail in and out
the Straits bound to and from Victoria,
Nanaimo. Burrard Inlet and other Brit
ish Columbian ports, engaged in the
coal and lumber trade, etc, Of that
province. Two hundred aud fifty
would not exceed the number Of
these. Thus it will be seen that the
Straits Of Fuca has already become one
of the great commercial highways of
the world This grand caravan Of more
than one thousand ships that yearly
passes Tatoosh Island light is certainly
entitled to the best care and the best
solicitude on the part of the Govern
ment whose wealth and commercial i'm
portance it so largely helps to sustain.
For The convenience Of this shipping
interest, it is urged that station Of the
United States Signal Service Bureau
should be established at the port Of
entry, with connections extending, if
practicable. on down to the Cape That
which is in operation at the present
time at tho capital is all very well in
its way. but can be of very little prac-
teal service to commerce. The winds
that prevail off the Cape can be noted
at Port Townsend, and thence reported
by telegraph to the various shipping
Ravens along the Sonnd. If the expense
Of n signal service is to be maintained,
let 1t be maintained for useful pur-
pose. and where it can be of some prac-
tical benefit II would not be ami.s
for our leading merchants aud shipping
masters to memorabilia the proper
authorities on the subject. To give the
more weight to such an application
and secure its success with the depart
ment. it should have the influence of
the names. if possible. of the mill
ers, the chiefs of the revenue and coast
survey department on the Sound. and
of the most prominent citizens who
take an interest in the subject.

Danger ia the Peel.

It is very bad habit to eat
orange peel. Nor is the iuven-
lie habit Of eating apples with
peel on to be recommended eth
er. Parents who do not care
yet TO correct these evil propen-
stiles will perhaps be more in
clined to do so when they hear
that the little black specks
which may be found on the
skins of oranges and apples that
have been kept some time are
clusters of fungi, precisely SINH
lar 10 those to which whooping-
cough is attributed. DIR.
Tschamer of Graz, who has
made the discovery, scraped
some Of these black specks off
an orange and introduced them
into his lungs by a strong in
spiration. Next day he was
troubled with violent tickling
in the throat, which by the end
of The week had developed in
to an acute attack of .whooping-
cough.

Budding Fruit Traas

pudding Fruit Trees.
Z. t. Quinn, in Scribner's.
gives these directions for bud
ding orchard trees:
TlreSproper time for budding
extends from the middle Of Ju-
" until the first Of September.
Whenever the bark separates
easily from the wood, the buds
may be set with fair chance
of success. The outfit for build
ing consists of some narrow
strips OF bass mating, such as
come on the inside Of coffee
bags and a pocket-knife with a
single blade, with a small piece
of ivory fastened in the end of
the handle. When the incision
is made, the ivory is used to
raise the bark up on either side,
so the bud may be pressed into
place. The buds to be inserted
should be cut from young,
healthy trees, and always of the
present years growth, those
that are most matured being Sc
lected. The leaves may then
be clipped off the branch Of
buds, leaving say half an inch
of the leaf stalk attached to the
bud. Then, with keen-cdged
knife cut off each, bud separate
ly, from half to three-quar-
ters of an inch in length, leav-
ing a tliiE slice of wood back
of the eye or bud. These should
be kept moist and protected
from the sun or air until set;
exposure, even for short time,
may prove fatal.
When the whole top, or any
part of it is to be budded over,
select the spot for each bud in a
smooth part of the branch, not
TOO large, say from one TO two
inches in diameter. On this
part make an incision through
the bark in the form of the cap
tai letter t, and raise or sepa-
rate the bark from the wood
with the ivory on the handle Of
the knife. The bud may then
be pressed into place. Cut Off
square the portion that goes a.
boye the cross incision. Then,
with a strip of the bass mating,
wrap firmly around the branch,
above and below the eye, fast
ching the end Of the strip by
slip knot.
