COMPLIMENTARY.

The following is portion of tho re.
port Of the committee of the Oregon
state fair on special exhibits: ''The
exhibit made by the U. S. experiment
station attached to the state agricultu-
raj college at Corvallis: The exhibit
(for beginning) was an excellent one
consisting in part Of eighty varieties Of
potatoes, shown by sample; fifteen va
rieties of tomatoes; of corn there was
twenty varieties; fifteen of sorghum; Of
Gordon peas fourteen kinds, and eight
of beans. Wheat was shown in fifteen
varieties and oats in twelve. The sta
ton has already collected eleven va
rieties of native clover, and had a good
exhibit of native and exotic forage
plants. The products are mainly Sc
cured from what is known iii western
Oregon as white land, one of the mos'
unmanageable of soils to the ordinary
farmer. AS it is understood this sta
ton will not only give out periodical
statements of what its carefully con
Quoted experiments shall prove to be-
good, better and best, but, will also be q
medium for distribution to farmers oi
seed and cuttings of what is found tc
be worthy of general attention. We
commend this institution and it's labor
to the attention and conformation o
farmers and trust that in future its pro
ducts may continue to be feature o.
our annual state fairs.p
The persons acting as this committee
were Hon. John Mimic and VIM

I'M ENGLISH R. r. YARD.

One point of much interest which
has been examined by American rail
road officials who have visited Eng
land this year is the great Edgehill
yard of the London and Northwestern,
near Liverpool. This is yard fol
sorting and "marshaling" freight cars
by gravity. 1t comprises over 81
miles of tracks and is said to have cost
L2,000,00O. Through this yard all
the outward and inward. freight traffic
of the London and Northwestern
passes. About 5000 cars are handled
in "a hours as Il maximum, not as an
average, but the yards have capacity
of 5000 to 5000 cars per day. Some
81 trains are made up and sent out be-
tween the hours OF A p. m. and a. m.
All cars arriving from Liverpool to be
sorted and made up are hauled to the
summit of an incline and deposited or
the reception lines. From these they
are dropped by gravity through the
sorting sidings and "gridiron" tracks
and come out made up in trains, the
cars arranged in the order of the sta.
tons at which they are to be left.
From so to S3 men are employed. It
is stated that the work done there in
1887 implied the employment of the
whole time of nearly 400 engines, which
collectively performed about 2,OO0,-
600 hours work at total cost of pre-
eisely e497,437."

10000. The middle states had add
ed one-third to their mileage; the
states between them and the Mlssis-
sippi, nearly one-third; and the southern
states nearly one'half; and the states
west of the Mississippi more than one
half-over 10000 miles. In four
states and one territory-Kansas, Ne
braska, Iowa, Minnesota and Dakota
have been added 10000 miles.
Then consider that every mile of new
railway, in regions not already sup
piled, brings within ready reach OF
markets 400 acres of land, enough to
support the entire population of an
other town, and that we have added
in nine years the means of supporting
$1,000 such towns.

The problem of show to get a big

Walla by an entirely new rule. A
dispatch says that Ward Douglas. the
agent, has submitted proposition to
the board of trade that if 81 ,000,O0O
of life insurance would be guaranteed
from the county, the New York Life
Insurance company, would build, as
soon as possible, a $3.50, 1000 hotel in
Walla Walla. A committee was at

toward the acceptance of the PROPOSE

some things new under the sun after

A bulletin issued by the state

MATERIAL PROGRESS.

How shall we realize something Of
the nations progress and power of
growth? Since 1880 the population
has increased from 50,000,000 to 67,-
100000; an addition of 100000
inhabitants, about as many as Great
Britain has gained in forty years, is
but one of the elements at work.
From abroad we have added during
the nine years, by immigration alone,
a population greater than that of the
two states of Ohio and Illinois. An
other nation twice more populous than
this nation was when it achieved
its independence, has been brought to
these shores across the sea since the
last census was taken. What is an
able-bodied inhabitant worth2 That
depends on where he is. In some
countries, where he can get neither
land nor freedom, neither opportunity
nor stimulus to effort, he is worth but
little. Here he produces farms, cities
and railroads; he produces wealth far
more than he consumes; he raises
children, and they in turn add to the
producing power of the nation. But
while a population as large as that q
Ohio and Illinois has come to US from
across the sea, another population
greater than that of New York, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania together ir
1880 has been added by natural in
crease in nine years. Consider wha
those three states were and what they
produced in 1880, and then conceive
that IA population as great as that o
these three states has been added tt
the country in nine years, says ar
ex,
Growth in population, surprising
that of any other great nation, is bu

tons development. The census re
reported about $1,000 miles of rail-
