KIND WORDS FOR OUR rERRiTsRY

The following is from a letter
written by Gen. H. A. Morrow to
DR.. J. B. Glenn, of Niles, Michigan,
and published in the "Republican"
of that place. Speaking of Wash
ington Territory, the General says:
"This Territory and the State of
Oregon are divided in their Eastern
sections by range Of mountains.
Now this range determines the char,
aoter Of the soil and the products Of
the two sections. West of the ran
ges, the weather is wet for seven
months in the year, but it still raises
good crops of wheat and. other cere.
ais. But there is not a very good
agricultural region to cultivate. The
country is heavily timbered and
much broken. It will be a long time
before it will "ray" to clear it, but
when it is cleared it will be a fine
cattle raising region, and will pro-
duce excellent crops. Now 60 east
of the mountains (the Cascades), and
the soil, climate and products all
change. The climate is dry, the soil
rich beyond anything you can con-
ceive of, and the crops of wheat are
such as even dear old Berrien, in it's
best parts, cannot excel. If you
still keep the map before you and
follow up the Columbia, you will
come to the Dalles, and finally to
'Walla Walls. You are now in the
wheat growing region. A few years
ago this was = wilderness, and was
thought to be worthless for agricul.
tural purposes. II now turns out to
be the greatest wheat producing
country on the face of the earth.
1t is not surpassed by the shores of
the Black Sea. All the world could
be supplied with its -four from the
upper Columbis and its tributaries,
1t is a fruit region also. Indeed,
there is a great belt of country of
hundreds of thousands, perhaps
many millions, Of acres, not far
south of the British line, which can
not be surpassed in productiveness
in the world. But will not attempt
to be particular as to localities.
Suffice it TO say, that when the Nor.
thern Pacific Railroad shall have
reached the.P Pacific Ocean there will
be opened up to. emigration and set.
tlement an empire of fruitful soil,
aud then also will spring up on Pu-
get Sound a great city, which in
wealth, population and enterprise
will only be surpassed on this CONT
nent by New York. AS yet this
country is very sparsely, settled.
The cost of getting here is SO great
that few can afford to make the jour.
ney with a family. 1t must wait
cheaper transportation, but when
cheaper transportation does come
there will spring up on this coast
glorious region. The people here
are thoroughly western in their ways
and habits. They have the same
heartiness of manner, the same en-
terprises the same quicknsss of ap-
prehension, the same downright hon.
sesty, which are found in all western
communities" sf.re III

the NEXT DELEGATE.

We have been asked repeatedly
why we have not taken a more ac-
tive part in bringing out and COM
menting upon prospective RepubIl'
can candidates for Delegate to Con-
grcss. Our friends need have no
fear. The ARGUS will probably take
lively part in the campaign before
it is over. We are not, like some
that might be mentioned, waiting to
be "seen," or watching for chance
10 sell our inAuence--hence, in one
sense, it is q matter Of Indifference
to MS as to who is nominated. We
do, however, take that interest which
all good citizens ought to feel, and
it is our sincere desire that the best
man may win. There are several
prominent candidates who would
doubtless each serve his constituents
acceptably if elected. But we can
not support all of them, and the
time is drawing near when choice
must be made. We have no desire
to six things" and believe that the
Republican party OF the Territory
can and will choose wisely and well
from its abundance Of good material
on hand. It's leading and represent.
ative men number several who are as
staupoh and true to the best inter.
ests Of the Territory as could be de
sired, besides being men of excel
lent abilities and capable of accom-,
plishing al! that could be hoped for
from delegate 10 the national coun
Gil.
Previous to the nomination, other
things being equal we propose to
advocate the claims OF the lower
Sound. Never since the organiza-
tion of the Territory has 1t been the
fortune of any Of the counties in
this vicinity to name the candidate
of the party, and, although this Sec
tion has repeatedly rolled up hand
some mcjorities for the Republican
ticker, and many Of its representa-.
tive men have taken hold with a
win and contributed freely of their
means and talents for the success OF
the ticket, nearly every other section
of the Territory has at some time or
other Been directly represented
while our people have been expected
to quietly fall into line and put their
shoulders to the wheel. They have
never disappointed the expectations
of the.pssty at large, and now we
think their turn has come. If the
various county conventions here a.
bouts work in harmony, and unite
upon aheif maps We can see no good
rsasdp why shsy may not send , DEL
egation over to Vancouver, prepared
to successfully pressnr their case.
We trust and believe that it will be
done, and that petty jealousies will
subside in, favor of the strong est
available candidate. We do not
care to draw any odious comparisons
between probable candidates who
are all commemorate in greater or
less degree. Let the people make
their choice, which will be prac,ic.
ally done at the primaries, and then

Age of Apple Trees.
Germantown Telegraph.

NcflnantOWn IeleSfaln
In one of the Western horticultural So
cieties the question came up as to the age
apple trees will reach, and the opinion pre-
vailed that thirty years is the extent to
which they will prove profitable. This is
remarkable, considering the supposed fer
tility Of Western soils, and the generally
supposed favorable Western climate and
we must believe until better informed,
that something else besides climate or soil
must affect the longevity of Western apple
trees.
In this part of the world we get nothing
of any consequence from an apple tree till it
is ten or fifteen years old. 1t is three or
four before we get if from the nursery,
seldom less than five years more before it
begins to bear. and some five years have to
be added before We can get anything like
a full crop. If we had but about fifteen
more it would hardly be worth the while
to grow fruit trees. Thirty years of such
husbandry would require that we calcu-
lated about three years to a full crop from
the ground, which would be worse than
giving whole year to nothing, as was
once the rule in summer-fallOwing.
We rather suspect that where trees
cease to be profitable after thirty
years of age, it is from some ne
glect which has affected the constitution
of the tree, 1t may be that borers have
been allowed to board and lodge in the
trunk free of charge for the accommodation
or the soil has been allowed to become too
poor; or they have been allowed to bear all
they were disposed to do without thinning
or assistance of any kind in any of which
cases thirty years would undoubtedly do
for them.
Ifall these things are properly seen to-
and all the other little matters attended to
that those who cultivate fruit for profit
ought to know about, there is no reason
why an apple tree may not be profitable
for fifty years, either in the West or any
where

Farmer and Gardener.

Notes of Value and Interest to Him.
Germantown Telegraph.
1t is stated that the disease of sheep
known as the "rot" or "bane,'' is pre-
vailing with great fatality in portions of
England, produced, it is believed, by the
extreme wetness of the summer followed
by unusual cold. Perhaps as many
as 100000 sheep, principally ewes,
have died from this cause. In Gloucester,
Oxen and Warwick parishes comparative
ly few are left.
A correspondent of the Ohio Farmer
thinks that the mammoth clover is the
best variety to cultivate because it is of
larger growth than other kinds and makes
more manure. 1t can he paStured in that
State until June, and when it is plOwed
under for wheat the ground is enriched to
far greater extent than when the small
clover is grown. When the correspondent
allowed it to 60 to seed he obtained sixty
bushels from twelve acres, valued at five
dollars per bushel. The pasture is worth
about what it costs to cut and thresh the
seed. This variety he believes has an ad-
vantage over all others in every respect,
except that the hay it makes is of an in
ferior quality. This, however, may be a
very important consideration.
The agricultural editor of the Baltimore
Weekly Sun, says that complaints are often
made against farmers that they neglect to
raise many fruits and vegetables for home
consumption which might be done with
but little additional trouble. The editor
suggests that if the garden is not large
enough for the purpose it can he made SO
by including enough ia of the adjoining land
to give room for long rows of plants and
greater ease in blowing. Raspberries can
he planted in the outer rows with vegeta-
bleS between, and Strawberries in shorter
rows by themselves. In this way with
proper cultivation small fruits and vegeta-
bles can be raised with as little trouble as
field crops.
BY this time, seeing how simple it is to
raise ones own asparagus, so as to have it
fresh from the garden, few people who
have any garden are willing to do without
a bed Of it sufficient for family demand.
Truckers grow it with the same ease that
they do patch OF potatoes or cabbages,
using the plow and harrow. Some of them
possess the knack of growing it to very
large size, which take the eye in the mar
ket and sell at two or three prices of that
of the ordinary size, though it is really not
SO good. In the first ten days in April
the coarscr part of the winters covering
should be removed and the remainder
forked in. This should be followed by a
coat o. rough salt, which will suffice for
any additional manure for the season and
keep down all weeds. Care, however, must
be taken not to apply salt to young beds
that have not been cut for at least one
year, or serious results may follow.
