loss OF GRAIN IN STORE.

An agricultural exchange says
wheat thresbed apparently dry in
August and placed in garret will
lose six per cent. of its weight by still
further drying in six months. IL
follows, therefore, that ninety-four
cents bushel in August is the
equivalent to one dollar in February,
to say nothing of cost of storage,
loss from destruction by mice, rats,
worms, ETC., and interest on the
money. Taking these into consider
alton, ninety cents in August for
wheat would be very nearly the
equivalent of one dollar in February
Corn gathered dry in November will
lose about twenty per cest', IA little
more or less, according to dryness il
the fall,) in six months. Thus forty
cents a bushel in November would
be the equivalents to fifty cents iu
May, emitting any account for inter-
est, or damage, or loss from vermin.
Potatoes will shrink in bulk or
weight about one-third.

one class of persons connected with
mining interests who, in the aggre-
gate do not, as rule, make large
profits. They are the discoverers of
the mines, who usually lack the
means to utilize their discoveries.
For example, Comstock, the discov-
erer of the famous Comstock silver
lode in the Sierra Nevada, out of
which enormous fortunes have been
realized, is said to have sold out his
claim for mere song. The history
OF mining of the precious metals is
filed with many instances where the
pioneer miners pointed the way to
great riches for others, but realized
scarcely anything for themselves.
The great mining regions of the
United States have produced of the
precious metal since the gold dis
coveries in California, thirty odd
years ago, the enormous sum of be-
tween two and three thousand million
dollars, of which the greater portion
has been silver. The mines of Col.
orado produce chiefly silver. The
vast wealth of the great deposits in
that State are just beginning to be
appreciated. In 1876 her mines pro-
duced about s5,ooo,ooc. In 1880
they produced s2s,ooo,ooo about
s4,ooo,ooo @ore than any other State
or Territory Scientists, experts and
practical miners, assert with empha-
sis that Colorado is to be the great
bullion center of the World. Ger
tain it is that her wonderful mineral
resources are drawing immense capi-
tai and rapidly covering her valleys,
and mountains with network of
railroads. Chicago Journal Of Com

WHEAT SHIPMENT BY RAIL OR By ocEAM.

Whether or not it will pay to ship
wheat from the Pacific Coast to-
Europe via overland railroad and
Atlantic ports is still au unsettled,
mooted question. 1t costs just about
the same year after year to ship from
Minneapolis to Europe as it does
from San Francisco, with whatever
difference there may occasionally be-
in favor of the latter port. This be-
ing the case, nothing is certainly to
be gained by the California farmer
sending his wheat over that route.
What is true of the California is
equally true of the Oregon and
Washington farmer. 1t will cost an
imperceptible trifle more to ship from
Puget Sound than it does from San
Francisco, or just about what 10
costs from Minneapolis. What then
is to be gained by an overland trans
portation of fourteen hundred miles,
to an interior town in the State OF
Minnesota, or to any other point east
of the Rocky Mountains I? Time
alone can be gained, and that is not
enough to offset long, useless trans-
portation like that referred to-

GOLD AND SILVER MINING.

Colorado is rapidly developing in
to the great bullion producing state.
The whole Eastern slope of the
Rocky Mountains seems to be a
stratified ore bed, some larger and
some smaller, some high up, and
some low down, but the miner and
capitalist can hardly go astray in
locating and proceeding TO handle
the ore he digs out. Gold, silver,
copper, lead and others in lesser
amounts, but all helping to swell the
output when once a systematic effort
shall be at work. Probably in no
other part of the world is there the
same active industrial development
In no direction is there so much en-
ergy displayed nor SO much capital
invested in all that pertains TO min
ing crushing, tunneling, bridging
water-carrying and road making.
This investment is more and more
coming to be found safe and profit
able. As an exchange remarks the
silver Minis of our greatest mountain
chain are admitted to be superior to
all others in the world. They have
created out of vast tracts of wilder
ness and desert, populous, rich and
thriving Territories and States and
all, or nearly all this within the last
quarter Of century. In the Sierra
Nevada and Rocky Mountain ranges
silver mining has arrived at the stage
of a regular and systematic industry;
an industry of which the United
States Commissioner of Mining Sta
tistics says is among the safest and
most profitable OF all industries
This is confirmed by the fact that il
has never been shaken by panic,
which has SO often disastrously affect
ed other. industries. There is only

THE PROGRESS OF AGRICULTURE IN THE
UNITED STATES.

1t appears from census bulletin
just issued that the number of farms
in the United States has increased
from 2,6eo,ooo in 1870, to 1900, 900
in 1880, being an increase of 81 per
cent. Thus the progress Of agricui-
ture i'll this country has more than
kept pace xith the increase of popu-
lation. This affords ground for belief
in the continuance of an abundant
supply of all the great staple articles,
equal TO the necessities of any pos
sible increase of population or nation
al contingency for ages to come.
The products of the great West give
tone to the market of Great Britain
and the continent. Chicago has be
come one of the first grain markets of
the world, and as the boundless re-
gion still further west is being de-
veloped, every channel of communi-
cation with the Atlantic coast will
TEEN with products of the soil.
The great daily interest in our
country during the past decade has
increased the production of sheese
and butter, and American cheese is
now as we'll known in the English
markets as the best English dairy
cheese. While it is admitted that
very much remains to be accom-
pIished by the agricultural interest
of tte country, it cannot be doubted
that the past ten y ears has shown to
the world that the United States has
within it's territory the resources
which will enable us to compete with
the older nations of the world in
every department of domestic. in
dustry.
The increasing annual products of
agriculture in our highly-favored
country, and the hay and grain crops
in particular, furnish striking illus
trations of the close independence
and connection of all branches of the
national industry. The dependence
of agriculture upon the results of
mechanical skill, as well as the as
tonishing progress of the latter with
in the last halt century, is strongly
exemplified in the application of
labor saving appliances which be-
come daily more valuable in all ope-
rations of the farm. Our progress
in this respect is believed to have
been more rapid than that of any
other agricultural people. and to be
in advance of our application of the
fruits of purely scientific research in
the improvement of agriculture. In
nearly every department of rural in
dustry mechanical power has
wrought revolution. The inventive
genius Of the country has not only
contrived to make it prepare the crop
for market, but to sew or knit the
family apparel of the farmer. as well

RAILROAD BUILDING OLD AND NEW
WAY.

The Cincinnati Gazette devotes
considerable time to the futility of
building a new road through a
country already we'll supplied. ''The
old way of taking a given amount Of
stock and paying one hundred cents
on the dollar for it, and then bond
ing the property for about onehalf
of its cash value is played out. The
new way pans out better, although
it may be little bit off color when
compared with the old way. 1t is
done in this way: Suppose that the
lowest estimate tor constructing and
equipping given number of miles is
$4,000, 900; the ring will issue $l2,-
500, 900 in bonds and $l2, 900 in
stock, making the bond and stock
debt s25 100000. Then it is agreed
that every purchaser of a bond shall
have a like amount of stock free, as a
bonus, as it were. Then it is agreed
that they will sell the bonds at eighty
cents on the dollar. Subsequently it
is agreed that we have the right to
subscribe first and the public after
ward. When the subscription books
are cast up it is found that we have
taken all the bonds with the stock
bonus. We then conclude that we
don't want the bonds, SO 'we' float
them at price as much above cost
as possible, leaving the voting power
which controls the road, clear profit.
In the meantime, an agent is sent
out along the proposed route to So
licit subscriptions from the counties,
cities, towns and individuals. Should

Cloud Burst.

Cloud Burst.
On last Saturday morning the
phenomenon of genuine water
spout was plainly visible to the
Prinevilleites. The morning was
calm and sultry, with not a breath
of air in motion. On the western
horizon, and also in the north, rain
clouds were seen, while far in the
east, standing boldly out against
the dark sky, slowly moving north
ward, was an immense cone-shaped
cloud whose base reached far above
the mountains, blending with the
surrounding vapors, and the vertex
hiding behind the neighboring hills.
The cloud was almost black, and
must have been very dense. Those
better acquainted with the surround
ing country say it was forty miles
from here, out in the d sert, where
perhaps no one had the pleasure OF a
close acquaintance, but where, no
doubt, traces of its devastation may
be found. These water-spouts, or
cloudbursts, as they are sometimes
called, are not untrequent visitors to
this part of the state, as traces of
them are often met with on the desert,
where large bitches have been washed
ont, and huge rocks haveibeen swept
from the hillside. These cloudbursts
are generally accompanied by very
little wind, and usually exhaust
themselves in very few minutes,
though the one mentioned was visible
for over quarter of an hour.-Pfi'ae-

PROSPECTS OF GOLD.

An Exchange says: A company
has lately been formed in Yamhill
and Polk counties for mining pur-
poses, who are confident that they
have "struck" something pretty
good. Quartz containing consider
able gold has been found in large
quantities on the Coast Range near
the source of the Yamhili Poor
specimens of it assayed $40 to the
ton, but it is thought to be worth
more than that. Besides this any
amount of quartz with large, quanti-
ties of silver or German silver is
found. Mr.. G. H. Mattoon slowed
us specimen brought here lately by
Solomon Crowley, of Polk county,
which would indicate the presence of
German silver in abundance. 1t was
examined by one of our jewelers. and
said 10 be German silver and not pure
silver as it. was at first thought to be;
but even the former could be made
to pay well. We certainly hope the
company will push the matter until
they become satis ID of the real
composition of the Coast range. 1t
is as reasonable to suppose that gold
can be found in larger quantities in
this State as in California.

+; fathers were forced to leave by the
slow eradication of time. Whether
the superior agricultural advantages
and the demand for improved i'm
| plements and machinery in the Uni
ted States have stimulated the facile
ingenuity of our mechanics, or have
only been seconded by its ready con-
tribution to industry, We need not
inquire. The greatest triumphs of
mechanical skill are witnessed in the
instruments adapted to the tilIage,
harvesting, and subsequent handling
of the immense grain crops of the
country, and particularly upon the
western prairics. Without the i'm
provemet in plows and other imple-
ments of tilIage which have been
multiplied to a considerable extent,
the vast wheat and corn crops of
these fertile plains could not be
probably raised. But were it pos
sible to produce wheat upon the scale
that it is now raised, much of the
profit and not little of the product
would be lost where the farmer would
be compelled to walt upon the slow
process OF the sickle, the cradle, and
the hand rake for securing when ripe
The reaping machine, the harvester,
and machines for thrashing, winnow
.ing, and cleaning his wheat for mar
ket have become indispensable to the
grain-grower. The commercial i'm
portance of our agricultural products
and their various relations to
markets, the means of transportation,
storage, ETC., makes it highly import
ant that the producer shall have the
mears of putting his crop in The
market at the earliest and most
favorable lime and with the greatest
precision. o.
The growth of the farming inter-
est in the country appears from the
