Tn. t..xl. Of dee,y.d Vegetation

which covers the ground benesth the
forest il Of considerable thickness.
On the top it consists altogether OF
The decsved trunka, branches and
leaves, but il shades downward into
ordinary dark-colored soil, At depth
Of few feet from the surface. This,
the decay zone Of the forest, lies be-
tween the houghs of the air and me
branches Of the roots In it 20 on the
most important actions which take
place in our forests actions which al
feet the HISTORY Of land aud see. We
shall therefore have 10 consider IL IN
somewhat painstaking way. Inc most
evident effect Of this sheet u decay
inc wood and moss which feeds on tns
decay, is on the rainfall Of the region
which il nantes. When, sftor sea-
son Of drought. copieus rain falls on
this spongy mass the water is for a
lono time absorbed in the interst'ces,
md does not flow 10 the rivers. Even
in times of heavy rain the water IS
slowly yielded to the streams; after "a
dry period of many weeks this sponge
retains a good share of water. Ike
amount OF water falling on titled
fields or praires slips quickly away to
the rivers aud thence To the sea. The
first result is that when the land is
destitute Of forests it sheds water like
house roofs, breeding floods after every
considerable rain, while in the forests
the rain is only slowly yieldad TO the
streams.
A second and less evident result OF
the spOngy character OF the forest bed
is that, by hindering the escape Of the
rain-water to the rivers, it increases
the actual rainfall of the country. To
see the nature and Importance Of this
action we must turn aside for mo-
meut to consider the origin of the
rain which falls upon the land. The
original source Of this water supply is
the sea, which sends into the lands a
toerably regular supply annually OF
moisture When this falls as rain or
snow. either of the two things may
happen the water may 90 away di-
rcctly to the sea, or it may return to
the atmosphere a, yapor, 10 be again
precipitated as rain The chance Of
the rc-cvaporatiou is determined by
the speed with which it flows 10 the
streams. From treress region ID
rapidly escapes. in an extensive region
al virgin forest il may again and
again pass from earth to air, and from
air To earth.
The columns Of vapor which in
times of summer rain may be seen
ascending from every great wood, af-
ford visible evidence Of the effect Of
the forests on rainfall. They also may

GREAT ADVANTAGES.

GREAT DNARIAdESs
A decided advantage Marion coun-
ty has over many Others is the di-
versihed farming interest that can
be carried on throught the entire
year; Notwithstanding this is a wet
climate during the winter months,
the uplands are seldom too wet to
work, and long before the prairie
farmers are through with their seed
ing, the hill farmer IL preparing for
ais summer work. And yet the
low lands are much preferred by
many; the yield per acre Is generally
greater, and perhaps less labor is re
quired 10 place the soil In proper
condition for crops; and then should
the season prove dry, the bottom
lands are sure TO bring the best
crops. No better farming land can
be- found I'm the United States than
that ON the noted Howell prairie,
French prairie, Santiam prairie and
Salem prairie. The soil OF these are
wonderfully productive, With good
cultivation, forty bushels OF wheat
and sixty of oata per acre can be
readily secured.
FACILITIES FOR MARKET
The Willamette river, with two
lines Of railroad running the entire
length OF the county nom north to
south, with the Oregon Pacific road
the southeast corner OF the
county, affords ample facilities TO
raoh u market In any direction.

Is the capital OF the state and
county seat OF Marion county, sltu-
ated ON the Willamette Tiver-and
on the q. a {. railroad. Costly
buildings have been erected, among
which the state capitol building,
county court house, Chemekete hotel,
opera house, new public school
building, Catholic school building,
church, Willamette Uni
vcrslty, and many private residences
and business blocks, which will
compare fAVorably with older and
larger cities.

PHYSICAL FORMATION.

The county contains, including
valley, prairie and mountain lands,
about 100000 acres.
There are two main divisions, the
and the valley. The
latter extends from the Willamette
river to the foot Of the Cascade
mountains, u distance Of about fiji
teen miles.
The mountainous portion contains
some fourteen townships of mostly
unsurVeyed land; lying in strip
twelve miles north and south by
forty miles east and west, and com
prlses all classes Of land, from rich
narrow valleys in the passes, up
through all the grades of rolling,
hilly and broken, TO that of rock
bound canyons and inaccessible
craggy peaks. 1t Is generally heavily
timbered, and in the near future
will be valuable for its lumber sup
plies. These hills and mountains
afford n wonderful summer range
for stock, and many Of the more en-
terprising farmers are availing them
selves of this opportunity, and when
the cold frosts of autumn approach,
the stock are brought out to fresh
pastures, thus enabling them to sur
vive the winter storms with little

LnrnS AND HOMES.

Marion county is situated in th,
heart Of the magnificent Willamette
valley, the central gem in the clus-
ter Of rich counties that form that
princely domain, and is the banner
commonwealth of the great north
west in all the essentials that go to-
wards making il a profitable abiding
place, and a home for the thrifty
farmer, the cunning artisan and the
industrious mechanic.
Rich in its agricultural resources
in its cultivated and uncultivated
lands, in its water powOFs, and
minerals; rich in its colleges and
schools OF learning, and with a
climate unsurpassed for its salubrity,
it presents to the immigrant from
the overcrowded states, where cold
winters and hot summers, with
terrible cyclones, prevail, who
comes TO the coast with some
means, advantages that no other
county In Oregon possesses.
Much has been written Of this
western country that requires a
stretch of the imagination to COM
prehend, and numerous complaints
are heard from the class who have
been misled by them, 80 in this
brief sketch the writer desires to
avoid exageration as to its present
and prospective advantages, asking
those IN the east into whose hands
this may ALPHABETICALLY those
who have their eyes directed towards
This coast-to peruse 1t carefully,
feeling that it Is not written to lure
within its borders, but
)nly as a truthful description Of
and which, If it does not "flOw
milk and honey" contains within
ts bosom wealth and resources equal
% any other country on the Pacific
nde Of the Rocky mountains.

Choose Only Good Men for Office.
tConcord Times

Good men on evil platforms can ef-
feet but little; good platforms with bad
men on them are worthless. Happily
for the country, the Democrats
adopted good, economic platforms
with wise and worthhy leaders to car
ry them out. They have chosen men
who will stand by their principles,
and we earnestly appeal to every voter
to carefully view the situation, eau
tiously scrutinize the Democratic can
didates, their records and past services
TO the country, and the principles by
which they are pledged 10 conduct the
State and national governments. Dis
card all prejndices, compare the Demo
cratic candidates and Democratic
principles with the Republican candi
dates and Republican principles, anc
then vote for your own, your children
and your country's interest. If yo'
do this, the Democracy will be safe.

How to be a Successful Farmer.

Now is the time to begin to prepare
for a good supply of home made ma
nure, composts, etc. We might ac-
complish great deal now while the
weather is dry, hauling mould, etc.,
out Of swamps, branches and ponds.
Swamp mud, being purely vegetable
matter, contains the most valuable ell
ements Of plant food, if the sourness
could only be removed. This may be
enectually done by hauling out now
and then composing in the winter or
spring, with stable manure, cotton
seed, etc. And thus VIC may very
much improve the looks ard vafne of
our farms by piling up the weeds, grass
and other vegetable matter in osnr
fence rows with earth. This COM
posted with cotton seed in the spring
will make the best fertilizer that can
be raised on the farm.

that | use the name of Rowell & Co.
because am more familiar with them,
and because | know them to be lead
ers in their profession).
AS to foreign advertisers, l have very
little to say. Nearly all with whom
have made contracts direct have given
me but little trouble, and all reputa-
Bile firms pay promptly.
Now, gentlemen, my desire and OBJ
ject in presenting these facts is to re-
mind the publishers of North Carolina
that the time has come, and duty de-
mands it, when we should do some
thing to protect our business from the
depredations of advertising agents.
The editors, not only of this Asso-
citation, but of the entire State are, as
a rule, men of character, integrity and
responsibility, and are thoroughly
skilled in their editorial work as we'll
as talented. But l regret to say that
a majority of them do not look out for
the money-making and money saving
part of the business as they should.
Generally speaking our publishers are
poor men from a monetary standpoint,
which is exceedingly unfortunate for
the profession. IF there is any man
who deserves more than another to be
in independent circumstances it is the
editor. It would not only be advan-
tageous to him but would be for the
public good.
Then let us go to work in a cooper
ative and systematic manner to place
our business where it should be.
I will suggest no plans, but there
are plenty of feasible ones, which the
Association may adopt as whole or
individually.
Hoping that ere long l shall see the
publishers of North Carolina in more
prosperous condition and building for
tunes for themselves and theirs as other
business men build them, / submit
these hastily prepared remarks to you
for consideration, assuring you that |
am always ready and anxious to aid
to the extent of my ability in main
tanning the dignity of the profession
in raising its financial condition to a
| higher plane.

Henderson Female College closed

enrolment Of about 100 pupils. 1t
has very handsome building in a
large campus. Henderson is one of
the most enterprising towns in the
State, has FIVE new churches, an ele-
CANT town hall, electric lights, several
new railroads. The location is high
and healthful and we think one of the
best in the State for a good scnool.
It is easy of access to the East. Any

In the garden of the heart no weeds
of distrust should be allowed to grow,
for poisonous stencil and witching
exhalations send blight and destruc-
ton to those pure and sweet and beau
teous flowers of affection and devotion
which alone should bud and blossom
there with all their Heaven tinted
bloom and beauty. These flowers, at
first, are tender, fragile and delicate,
and cannot live in an atmosphere per-
meated and saturated with the foul
breath of distrust, and their soft, sensi-
tive roots cannot derive sustenance
from a soil embedded with the briars
of accusation and the brambles of ami
madversion. No, they cannot flourish
amid such surroundings. They need
the purest atmosphere of implicit and
perfect trust; they need the refreshing
dews of the kindliest ministry, and the
soft, mild, invigorating and fructlty-
ing light of that Heaven created faith
whose effulgent fires melt all fogs and
msts of doubt away, and leave flood
of glory there With these agencies,
the flowers of the heart-love, devo-
tfon, harmony and honeyed endear-
ments, will attain the richest bloom
and beauty and luxurlance, and theil
odors will make home life as sweet aDC
delectable and enhancing as the fra
GRANGE distilled from the gardens O
Paradise.
