for corn.
PLANTING.
iii sections where the cane is liable
to frost in the fall, planting should
be done early, as soon as the ground
is thoroughly warm In the south
early planting will give two crops
from the same stand. Test the seed
before time for planting, so that in
the event Of its proving worthless,
you may have time to procure other
seed. Plant in check rows, same as
for corn, 50 as to pillow both ways
Put in plenty Of seed, and thin out
50 as to leave in the hill five or six
stalks of the Minnesota Early Am
Der and the Imphces. and six or
seven stalks Of Sorgo. This seed
should be covered thinly. If planted
early, one-half inch is deep enough,
for if covered more than that, and
the ground should become cold and
wet, the seed will rot. II, however,
the seed is planted late, when the
ground is warm and comparatively
dry, it should be covered ono inch.
CULTIVATION.
As soon as the plant comes up
destroy the weeds and keep clean
until ready for the plow 1t is cs-
pecially important to give the plant
every assistance III the early stages
Of its growth. 1t is a slow grower
1T first, and if left alone will be
ehoked with weeds This is the
time to make the crop" When
large enough, plow and cultivate
same rs corn. When about thirty
inches high it may be turned out, as
it is then able to take care of itself,
and further blowing would only do
damage by cutting the roots and in
luring the stalks. The suckers should
be pulled of.
Sorgo should not be cut until the
seed Is III the dough state; the other
varieties when in the milk. If not
convenient to grind the cane rs soon
rs cut, top it by cutting off one or
two joints, then cut, and throw into
windows. After Il week or ten
days, if not wanted for immediate
working UP, the cane should be re-
moved to shelter The cane should
never be left to be overtaken by frost
before it is cut or it will be seriously
injured. The blades should not be
stript until the cane is wanted for
grinding. BY cutting before frost,
and curing with blades on, the cane
may be kept for month, OF longer,
without injury. 1t should be pro
tected from rain and frost as much
Is possible. The tops should be
laid III piles convenient for gather
ing, to dry, and may be left until
the grinding season is over. Pre-
serve the seed. 1t is worth by anal
ysis one-sixth more than oats for
stock feed. For sheep, feed on the
head; and for other stock, grind the
seed and make chop feed The seed
may be trampcd or thrashed out like
wheat, or stript off like broom corn.

Editors Dsmoerat:
[ see the DEMOCRAT has been taking
some considerable interest in the work
of the Order of Patrons of Hushandry
and as PATTON wish to contribute
my mite in the way of setting before
the people of this coast, and more
especially of Oregon, some of Tie re-
suits of the labors of the Order, aud
also the scope of It's influence. The
Gtange has accomplished a good deal
in Oregon, and especially IN Linn
County, Ia connection with The Linn
CO. Council, both morally AID socially
and financially. The influence ois the
Grange over the morals OF its members
has been very marked since the crgai.i-
cation Of the Order here. While Eer-
sons are recsiyed IN the Grange at l6
years of age, and while the Grange
halls are filled ut our meetings old,
Young and middle aged, there Is an en-
tire absence of any thing like hoodlum-
ism such as Is very noticeable Mt ali
public meetings on other occasions
Then the social features of the order
are 10y no means to be overlooked.
Our meetings bring out stay-athome
people, and they mix aud mingle with
their neighbors aud discuss questions
of Importance presented beiofe the
Grange with as much zest, good COM
mon sense ard zeal, as we see mani
tested by our professional men IN theit
various professions. They thus ex-
change Thoughts and are materially
benefited thereby, besides partaking OF
each others "beunty" in the wny of
eatables, which feature is never neglect
ed at our gatherings. Financially the
Grange has been great bless
ing, not only Ia The members
themselves, but to the farmers
generally in the way IF bringing down
the price of machinery, ETC., It has
improved the morals of its constituents,
Frightened their intelects, and enligh-
tened their minds on questions OF b.
nance, commerce, and agriculture.
Though the Grange is onls III It's IN
fancy and has only made start in the
right direction in The way of overcom-
ing obstacles and solving problems pre-
sented for their solution, We predict
bright future for the Order, not only
on this coast, but throughout the
United States, not only in the points
mentioned, but in moulding the minds
of the rising generation of agricultural
lists, both in the production and dispos-
ing of the products of the soil, and in
buying what they consume. We
therefore say to all patrons, perseyere
in your good work of casting your
bread upon the waters, for it shall be
gathered up many days hence" To
those farmers who arc still standing out
of the Order we say, come along and
cast your lot with ns and thus benefit
yourselves and assist in giving thought
and action to the great work that now
lies before us Of moulding the minds,
o TO speak, ef the rising generation on
these questions.

APAIRoS.

Editors Democrat
The haying has commenced in this
vicinity and the crops every where are
much heavier than was expected in the
spring.
During the last two or three weeks
we have been having occasional thun-
der showers, which have been bene-
ft to vegetation all over this section.
Thunder storms are becoming much
more frequent than they were few
years ago.
However, taking this section all
through the harvest this year will not
be as large as usual.
In consequence of the compromise
between Willard and Billings by which
the Northern Pacific Railroad is to be
built through The Dalles, freights will
probably be reduced and this section
again take new scarf on the high road
to prosperity. More anon.
Respectfully,
III. G. Nick.

1t is customary to advertise to

we cannot afford to sell goods at

to sell goods at the very lowest

At the democratic caucus held al

in favor Of legislative independence for

Irishmen most wanted was a domestic

THE BEACoNsFIELD FUND.

The Beacouffeld Fund makes slow
progress. The secoRd list Of subscrip-

is an evident reaction against the recent
excessive adulation.

gadocio about challenging Forster. 1t

THE NSw FRENCH TARIFF.

l have good authority for saying that
the French government will not recede
from its position in reference to the pro-
posed commercial treaty. By the new
French tariff it is expressly provided that
all new treaties shall be based on the
principle of specific, as against dd
VaLorems duties. Under this system Eng
fish goods would be practically barred
out Of France. For example: Since the
Golden treaty was passed in 1860 the
French cotton and textile industries have
been revolutionlzed. The British manu-
facturers will have to cut prices fine to
compete with French mills and pay the
cost of transportation. With specific
duties, so much per 100 kills, instead of
so much per cent, en- the stated value of
the goods, competition will be impossible.
Sir Charles Dixie, who is a mem Der of
the commission, processes to hope for
great concessions, but there will be none,
and the government and the manufacture
ers agree that no treaty would be better
than specific duty. Negotiations will
be broken off and English goods sub
jected to the new'French tariff 10 Novem-
