Summer Lake.

Among the most favored valleys Of
the Lake country. is that of Summer
Lake 1t lies few miles west of Che
waucan, and is separated from it 10y
high sage plain. West and south of
the valley is high mountain chain.
The side of this mountain next the lake
is quite precipitous, but is covered with
the finest of bunch grass. Along its
base are numerous springs, some Of the
forming streams of considerable size,
which flow across the narrow but fertile
valley into the lake. The climate is re-
markably mild considering the great al
titude of the valley, and is perhaps less
frosty than almost any other portion of
Lake county. We are informed that
all kinds of vegetables which succeed in
the most favored parts of Western Ore
gon, are grown successfully there. On
the east side of the lake, the country is
more desert like; the first prominent
feature to attract attention being an
alkali fiat on the lake border, above
which, when the wind blows continu-
ously for considerable length of time
which is not sedon---hovers white
cloud of alkali dust Farther away is .
high ridge surmounted by wall of
volcanic rock, such as is usually known
in the Lake country as "rim rock.
This marks the southern limit of the
Oregon Desert, so famous as Winter
pasture for stock. In December 1913,
Captain John G. Fremont, travelling
eastward on an Indian trail, with his
exploring party from the head of the
Klamath Marsh, looked down Oh this
valley from the high ridge to the west
ward, While the pathfinder" stood in
snow up to his boot tops with a snow
storm Gin full blast" about him, the sun
shone brightly upon the lake and grassy
valley below. Winter and Summer
seemed to be the only words in the Ian
guage sufficiently descriptive Of the un-
usual scene, hence Fremont called the
mountain Winter Ridge, and the body
of water below him Summer Lake.
The population of Summer Lake is al
ready considerable, but we doubt not it
will be greatly increased in the future.

SONG.

Stay, stay at home, my heart, and rest;
Home keeping hearts are happiest,
For those that wander they know not where
And full of trouble and full OF care;
To stay at home is best
Weary and homesck and distressed
They wander east, they wander west,
And are bailled and beaten and blown about
BY the winds of the wilderness of doubt;
TO stay at home is best.
Then stay at home, my heart, and rest;.
The bird is safest in its nest;
Der all that tiutter their wings and fly
"A hawk is lowering in the sky;
To stay at home is best

Catching up.-There are lew house
keepers who are perpetually, but in vain,
trying to "catch up" with their work.
There is Away so much ahead that needs
Going, that is suffering to be done,." and
80 much in the present to occupy all the
time, and more, too, that it seems, and is,
impossible. to do all that apparently
needs to tie done. 1t is like buying all
the land that joins you. But housekeep-
ers are not the only class Of workers that
never overtake their work. Go to any
big law Office and see how many things
that ought to have rights to be promptly
attended to, have to wait and wait till
THAR turn comes. Ask any large con-
tractor if he can keep up with them. Ask
any writer if he finishes up, or can finish
up, all he plans to accomplish. A woman
with house to keep and q family OF
children to rear has large contract GA
her hands, and no matter how much she
does, the work she is compelled to leave
undone will always lie in large majority.
But if from day to day he meets the
pressing duties of the day that ought to
satisfy her. If, instead of trying to an
ti:ipate all the work for the next week
and the next year, she simply does not
put off till to morrow what might and
what ought to be done to-day, she should
allow herself to feel that she had done
enough.

The Farm.-Noth,ng adds 50 much to
the beauty Of farm as near, tidy sur
roundings. Farmers are too much occu.
pied about the ploughing. planting, etc
to give much time to lightwork in spring,
yet it would require but very little effort
to spare few hours about the house in
picking up and raking off the dirt from
the house and barn; but il would add so
very much more to its attractions, and
make it tar more valuable in the eyes of
others, particularly those who are in the
search of farm to purchase as home.
Add to this, repairing of broken hinges
and gates and all kinds of machinery,
and one has relieved himself of great dis
comfort and has been rearing re-
fining influence, both in his own family
and that of his neighbors; and
and also prolonged the life of his family
by the removal Of that which creates
disease and death. g" An ounce Of pre-
ventive is worth pound of cure"

Hints to Wool Growers.-1st. Never

Sd. Take the proper means to get the

4th. Do not allow gravel to cling ia

to make it weigh more.

passing only once around it. Dealers
and manufacturers do not care to pay

Of specie, one hundred thousand pounds
belonging to others, was on board, in
duced tour of the crew to form conspir-
acy to muder every one else and seize the
ship. These mutineers were respectively
GeOrge Gidley, the cook, native of the
west of England; Peter McKulie, an
Irishman; Andrew Zekerman, 2 Holland
er; and Richard. III. Quintin, q Iondoner.
On three different nights they are stated
to have made the attempt but Were baf-
ded by the vigilence Of Captain Glass,
rather than tina. Of his countryman Cap
tain Cochrane, but at eleven o'clock at
nig ht on the 3Oth of November, 1855, it
CHANGED as shown at their trial, that
these four miscreants had together the
watch on deck, when the Sandwich was
already in sight of the coast of Ireland;
and when Cochrane, after taking sur
vey aloft, was about 10 return to the
cabin, Peter Kul1e Drained him with ian
iron bar" probably marlin spike), and
threw him overheard.
A CRY that had escaped Cochrane alarm
ed the rest of the crew, who were ell dis
patched in the same manner as they rush
ed on deck in succession. This slaughter
and the din ii. occasionea, reused Captain
Glass, who was below in bed; but he soon
discovered what was occurring, and after
giving one glance on deck, rushed away
to get his sword. M'Kulie imagining
the cause of his going back, went down
the steps leading to the cabin, and stood
in the dark expecting Glass return and
suddenly seized his arms from behind;
but the Captain being q man of great
strength, wrenched his sword arm free,
and on being assailed by the other three
assassins, plunged his weapon into the
arm of Zekcrman. when the blade became
wedged or entangled. It was at length
wrenched forth, and Glass was slain by
repeated stabs of his own weapon, while
his dying cries were heard by his wife
and daughter-two unhappy beings who
were ruthlesslyS thrown overheard and
drowned.
Besides these four victims, James
Pincent, the mate. and three others lost
their lives. The mutineers now loauea
one of the boats with the money, chests,
and 80 forth, and then scuttled the Sand
wich, and landed at Ross on the coast of
Ireland. But suspicion speedily attached
to them; they were apprehended; and
confessing the crimes of which they had
been guilty, were tried before the Court
of Kings Bench, Dublin, and sentenced
to death. They were accordingly execut-
ed in St. Stephens Green, on the 10th of
October. 1863.
