From 4 private letter. kindly shown
u~, from a geutlcmln residing in the

lowing extract:

aud Wild cats also abound. We have
VAST truc'S NJ tir. spruce and hcmlock,
equal tn the best on Puget sound. besides
alder and maple bottoms, some cedar and
other kinds oi wool. We need mail
ronte VERY Much. Crops are looking
well, and the settlers are in good health. y
/ As many are aware, the term
Quillyhute embraces large tract of
country bordering on the ocean and
lying between Cape Flattery aud
Gray's Harbor. The best land lies
on either side of and adjacent to the
river bearing the name given. This
river is navigablc for a few miles
with schooners, smal! steamers and
other craft, and with canoes or light
boats for twenty or thirty miles. A
few large and fertile prairies, on the
north side and but about three miles
from the mouth of the river, were set
tied upon few years ago by about
half-a.dozen hardy pioneers who have
since then been industriously en-
gagged in farming, stock raising, trad.
ing and improving their land.
Having visited portion Of the
section referred to, we can readily
subscribe to the certainty of its de-
veloping into prosperous and pop
ulous agricultural and mechanical
center. The abundance of splendid
soil (both prairie and timberedD with
in it's limits insures its agricultural
importance in the near future, while
the dense covering of many kinds of
valuable timber which large por-
ton of it sustains is evidence that
not many years hence our lumber
markets will include it's resources in
the avenues of their support. That a
mail route ought, in justice to these
settlers, to be extended to them from
Ncah Bay (ther nearest post Office,
some thirty miles distant) is ques
tion so palpable in its merits that we
refrain from farther remark. We
believe if a petition for post Office
there is properly gotten up, clrculat.
ed where necessary, and forwarded
to the Post Master General at Wash
ington, its request will be granted.

Fat Kansas.

The reports of the Kansas State Board
of Agriculture, have come to be docu-
ments of great value to the statistician
as we'll as to the man of business. In no
State is there more care bestowed, and
none excel them in completeness.
The last monthly report of the seere-
tary, Alfred Gray, is one of the best,
even from him We find in it many COM
plete facts for the year 1877.
The number OF bushels of winter
wheat was 10,S00, 295; OF spring wheat,
3,5l6,4 l0-total wheat crop, 14,316,1O5
bushels. Corn, l03, 49,, S3l bushels. Rye,
2,525,O54 bushels. Barley, 1875 1928
bushels. Oats, 12,76S,4s bushels Cas-
tor beans, 1856 Flax seed, POI, 500
bushels Hemp, 29l, 800 pounds. To-
bacco, 1857 ,564 pounds. Broom corn,
16,915,712 pounds.
These items constitute the marteka-
BILE products of Kansas, or those that are
sent out of the State. And taking them
with the hay, sorghum, potatoes, ETC.,
the entire value of the Kansas crop for
1877 was SIS, 597 ,95l21.
In regard TO the hog crop we have
some interesting facts The "hog
cholera" so called, killed during the
year ending March |, 1877, 81, 500 hogs
their value being 1892, $50. This NOR
tally amounted to S.S per cent. OF the
value of the entire hog crop of the State.
The report then gives the number which
died IN every state OF the Union. The
loss in Kansas is the smallest of any
State except Ohio, per cent, and West
Virginia, 4 per cent. The largest loss
was in Missouri, 80 per cent, Alabama
next, "a per cent, and Illinois % per
cent.
These statistics are alarming, and the
Immense loss entailed by the disease in
one of the most important cash interests
OF agriculture, demands both Of State
and national government the most earn
est efforts to discover the cause and Il
remedy for it.-k- G. Journal of Com

A Stylish Dance in the Early Days Of Colo
radn

|
The Boulder Colo Mirror thus talks
over the good Old times: The first set
tiers of Boulder came here in 1858. In
1859 quite number came, and some
sixty log houses were erected before
1860 stepped in. of these Lighthouses
but few remain. Christmas, 1859,
saw, jovial crowd of dancers in one of
these houses, windowless, we believe,
at that time. The hardy pioneers when
after fun had it. On the night IN Qucs-
ton, about 200 sons of toll and seekers
OF gold and their fortunes and seven
teen ladies had assembled at the above
named place to partake OF a frontier
terpsichorean. MarInHs G.. Smith was
then one of the beaus of the town, and
his dress suit consisted of a pair of
pants made out of seamless sacks and
colored blue by the aid of logwood. /.
A lady now living in town had an Gle
giant dress made out of flour sacks, also (
colored by the aid OF logwood. There
we're few with white shirts in the neigh /
borhOod then, most of the pioneers .
wearing wooden or flannel ones A I
man with u white shirt on was IN style, +
and could dance with his shirt off; a
man without any would wear coat
buttoned up 10 the neck. Coats for
dancing purposes did not seem to be
any To numerous, consequently tee pio-
neers helped each other out. For in
stance, Aft Nichols had six white shirts,
which were all at that ball, and the coats
of those six white shirted fellows went
to cover the backs of some one else
When one fellow had a dance he would
loan his coat to another, and then his
turn would come, and so the white shirts
and long coats were dancing all night,
and went around among the 200 mon.
There were no wall-lowers among the
seventeen Indies. But they say the sup
per for the occasion was grand affair.
Wash boilers full of coffee, great hunks
of black-tailed deer, jack rabbits, fish,
game aud delicacies brought from the
States in cans, all went to make np as
glorious supper-one that the partaker
would like to see repeated. There may
not have been much style, but the seam
less sacks and -four bags saw as much
pure enjoyment as does the finest and
grandiest attire of to-day.
