Sailing Stock
One of the most important things to
..o,e TO in the care of farm stock Of
IsverE hind, is that they have access at
n +;uss to salt. In this connection we
would sgain call attention to the bad
practice in vogue with many otherwise
L~ood farmers, in that they salt irregu-
sry and at such times with too liberal
|, hand. Thus animals viii gorge them
.slvss and this often results in severe
purging. Again, when salt Is thrown
|sbout on the ground to be licked up, the
stronger animals get more than they
Ibould, and the weaker ones little or
none Besides, injury to weak animals
h often the result of this struggle. The
propsr way to salt stock is to have the
malt placed under cover, where they may
|gst it every day if they wish. In this
|vsy they take just what they want and
|pO more, and, while eating what is neces-
barry for them, they never take enough to
no them injury. Thus cattle will seldom
|ske more than an ordinary tablespoon
|hl per dsy, and this is about what they
rsuuire in summer as an aid to proper
digestion. L Chicago Prairie Farmer

BLACK RIVER BRrpGE.-Mr. Atkins

10 complete it ready for the passage of

morrow. The bridge is sixteen feet
vide, 256 feet long. four pile bents,
there being six bents sixteen feet apart
on the Foster side of the river. and
eight on the Jorgensen side. with a
high span of thirty three feet in the
middle for the passage of boats, drift,
etc. Sheer booms of piles are driven
on the upper side. stretching from a
considerable distance above on each
bank To this central gap for collecting
and passing drift wood. The stringers,
four in number throughout, and eight
by sixteen inches, are bolted together
aud also to the caps by screw bolts,
and covered with three inch planks.
The bridge is o solid piece Of work. and
strong enough for railroad bridge. 1t

BUILDING MORE PERMANENTLY

BUILDING MORE PERMANENTLY
A gentleman, from La Conner. informs
us that most of the farmers in that To-
cality are now busily engaged re-
dyklng their lands. washed over about
three months since by the unusually
high tides. The dykes that were
washed away, subjecting q large area
of land to overflow. were principally. if
not entirely, those constructed several
years ago. and built after q Cheap
John" fashion. the dirt being thrown
up loosely and not sufficiently packed
Experience. however, has taught the
farmers more thorough and substan-
tial method of dyke building. As a
result none of the dykes built last year
he says, have been washed out Those
being put up at the present time are
being built in most thorough manner,
and he states that unless something I'M
usual occurs. they need anticipate no
trouble with them. He holds that the
grain crop of the flats will not be quite
as great this year as last. We have
noticed that nearly all the dykes on
tide lands in the Eastern States are
thickly planted with willow brush. and
should think that the plan would be
practicable and useful on the Swine.

From WALLA WALLA.-C .pta:n ".
H. Andrews, who has just returned
from flying trip to his for@..r home

feeling Of the people on the other side

nection between the great valley and
the great sea- board harbOr is not only
cordial but enthusiastic. The people
over there arc both able and willing 10
subscribe enough TO carry the narrow
gauge road from the east side 10 the

liminary wanting in order to insure the
contamination of the work is for the
people on this side to provide for the
construction of the line from here 10

the circumstance that the surplus grain

immediate pushing Of the railroad from

enterprise with the farmers like real
