The SPRING CLIP.-Some atten-
lion is already being paid to the
spring clip of the valley wool. The
market now stands at twenty cents
4 pound for unwashed valley and a
few cents less for Eastern Oregon
wool. AS a general rule, the valley
asece is freer from sand and dirt
Than that from most any other part
Of the state. From that fact, the
wool here brings better price. The
eber of the valley wool is said to be
finer aud of better quality than of
the fleece from Eastern Oregon and
Wasbing gton. Articles of wear made OF
valley wool command a better price
an the markets. In q few weeks
sOeing will be begun, when many
will put their wool on the market at
once. There are large number of
sheep in the valley, principally in
the foot hills and on the high lands
where they do best, and where the
lands are less profitable to cultivate.

Wall streets intimate relationship
with society has often been denied.
But the recent developments socially
have shown that the dependency OF one
upon the other is almost complete.
The enormous depression of values
down town and the animated and erat-
ic condition of the market resulted in
the abandonment of literally scores of
dinner parties and the postponement
OF many entertainments in that por-
ton of New York which has its center
on Murray Hill. Now that things are
quiet again in Wall street, the thea
tres are beginning to fill up, the res
taurants are crowded, and there are
numberless announcements OF new par
ties and dances. New York Sun.

Recording Earth Tremors by Pho
Biography.

The utility of the microphone for
observation of earth tremors and
noises was soon recognized, and Italy
has for some time held a foremost
place among the nations which have
taken advantage of the special adapt
ability OF this instrument. 1t is now
found that photography possesses adj
mirable capabilities in the way of sup
plementing the work of the micro
phone in making these delicate re-
cords. Sig Baratta, finding some de-
fects in a method of mechanical regis
tration of the motions of seismo-
microphone, had recourse to thefollow-
ing device A telephone wire is con-
nected with Il subterranean micro
phone. Before the telephone dia-
phragm, and connected with its centre
with O fine aluminium wire, is short
slip of the same metal, fixed below,
and having curved piece at the top,
which rests against a small mirror,
movable about a horizontal axis.
This mirror reflects the light from a
lamp and lens to Photographic paper
on q rotated drum. The light is mo-
mentarily shut off every quarter OF an
hour by a shutter arrangement, work
ed electro magnetically by the clock

Washing Out the Stomach.

During the past year several physi-
clans in New York have tried, with a
gratifying success, a novel treatment
for dyspepsia and cancer OF the
stomach by washing out that organ.
The process is very simple and not
dangerous. A long flexible pipe is
passed down the throat until one end
is in the stomach. The upper end has
funnel attached, into which hot
water is poured until.the stomach is
filled. The weight OF the water in the
sure sufficient to distend the stomach.
The pipe has an aperture big enough to
hold lead pencil. After the stomach
has been filled, the funnel end OF the
pipe is turned down until it is lower
than the bottom of the stomach, and
the stomach is emptied as q barrel OF
any fluid is emptied through asiplfon.
The process may be repeated several
times. The RESULT is that the undi-
gested food and mucus are washed
out, and the hot water closes the
blood vessels and reduces inflamma-
ton. The relief is immediate. The
dyspeptic may have his stomach
washed out before q meal, so that he
can take q fresh start. After the
lapse OF sufficient time for ordinary
digestion, the stomach may be washed
out again. This process has been il
use at the New York Hospital. we are
informed, for some time.-Scientitit

NEAT AND
A Plan for Capturing a Thief That
will Not Work Now.


The device lately hit upon by
member OF the Paris police force for
catching a thief was certainly an ingen-
ious one, butnow that the light-fngered
fraternity know OF the trap they will
probably be on their guard in the. fu-
ture, says the London Standard At
one of the large dress warehouses in
the Faubourg st. German there had
been, it appears, for several weeks
past, a number of robberies commit
ted, and though the strictest watch
was kept by the inspectors, it had
been impossible to discover the thief.
In the majority OF cases the unknown
shoplifter took away with him elegant
and costly nantes exposed for sale
on dummies III the shop, choosing his
time for operating so well that his
identity remained a mystery. The
police were at length appealed to, and
in order to catch the rogue one or two
agents We're, at the suggestion OF a
member of the force, ordered to sub
stitute themselves for dummies-ol
rather to hide themselves inside then
wire-work frames. 1t was not long
before the plan succeeded.
A day or two ago, just as a richly
trimmed mantle was being cleverly
removed from theshoulders of n dun
my, the individual engaged in the act
felt himself grasped tightly by a pail
OF strong arms and held u prisoner
The shoplifter's fright at finding thu
dummy to be, so to say, inhabited
was so great that it deprived him o
speech and action, and he made nc
attempt to escapefrom the constable''
grip or explain away Misconduct. H'
is now lodged in prison, aud on any
future thieving expedition of this kline
he will probably besuspicious OF dun

The Department of Agriculture, during
the past three Years, has devoted considera-
Bile time to the study of fruit tree and vine
diseases. This division was the first agency
in this country to introduce the use of fun
gicides for grape diseases, and it is estl-
mated as result of its work that nearly five
thousand grape growers. in nearly all parts
of the country, treated their vineyards Tor
mildew and black rot, in 1890. Probably in
no part of the United States was the spray
ing of the grape vines and fruit trees put to
more of n severe test than at Nauvoo, Ill.
the past season. Nearly 5000 was invested
there in spraying outfits ana material The
results have proven satisfactory that this
coming season almost every vintuer and
orchardist in that section Of the country will
have a spraying outfit; in fast the spraying
outfits have become as much of n necessity
as the pillow on farm.
1t is estimated that the extent OF damage
done to the fruit trees and vines in the
Uni ed States by insects and fungus disease
each year will reach four hundred million
dollars; in which event it is time some
method was devised to avoid this heavy loss
which is most felt by the growers in years OF
scarcity. The scarcer the fruit Is the more
We have to contend with insects.
Mr.. VIM. Stahl, of Quincy, H., has made
a special study OF how to prevent the ravages
of insects and fungus diseases and will sent

and descriptive treatise on this subject.

Flowers in London Markets.

The sale of flowers by auctions one
of the sights OF the Covent Garden
The stands in the wholesale market
are furnished over night, and the
building is open for private buyers
at 4 o'clock next morning. but all
their business is over at O'Clock.
The visitor who attends these purely
trade functions has the advantage OF
very charming flower show, covering
something like three-quarters OF an
acre of space, upon which are ar
ranged tier above tier OF blossoming
plants, sometimes extending up and
down. in and out, to total frontage
of 700 yards. The auctioneer who
takes his rostrum at 10 O'Clock, adj
dresses himself to the men who are
called "higglers" a kind of middlemen,
who purchase the flowers i'll lots and
sell them to the retailers. The Hover
girls cannot afford to trade until the
general customers have had their pick
| of the choicest wares, but taught by
sharp experience, they are able to
drive very smart bargains, ana know
precisely what to purchase.
The pale-faced children OF the alleys
and by streets of this densely-popu-
lated west central district diligently
haunt the purlieus in the Spring.
They have heard of green fields and
buttercups and daisies, perhaps have
been told that theswallow and cuckoo
hasten over the sea to spend Il merry
Summer in English meadows and
copses; but the punches and baskets
of flowers which here fill them with
delight and wonderment are the only
evidence ofsuch pleasant things hither-
to vouchsafed to them. They are to
them tokens from an unknown world.
The daffodils, being brightly golden and
of respectable size, strike them most,
as they very likely strike all classes OF
visitors. When March is going out
like roaring lion, and the London
streets are swept by hail and rain, it
is pleasant to turn into Covent Gar
den and pass these flowers in review
The wonder is how such quantities o.
violets, primroses, and daffodils can
be collected.-Good Words.

Notwithstanding the many aud most posi-
tive proofs Of the great benefits resulting TO
fruit and grape growers from sprayin they
are thus far slow to avail themselves OF this
almost certain method of saving, increasing
and identifying the products of their
orchards and vineyards 1t will not be dis
puted that the necessity for spraying, for
the destruction of insect pests that attack
tree fruits, is much greater than for the pro
lection OF grape vines whose worst aemies
are fungus diseases, but where these &c very

The Skin of Toads and Salamanders
Under the Microscope.

A recent microscopical study, by
Herr Schultz, of the skin OF toads and
salamanders, has yielded some interes-
ing results. There are two kinds OF
glands, mucous and poison glands.
The former are numerous over the
whole body, while the latter are on
the body and limbs, and there are
groups in the ear region behind the
eye, ardin the salamnader at the angle
OF the jaw The poison glands are, OF
course, protective, and the corrosive
juice is discharged differently in toads
and salamanders, on stimulating
electrically; in the latter it is spirited
out in fine jet, sometimes more than
a foot in length. Whereas in the toad,
after long action of the current, it ex-
udes sparingly in drops. There is no
reason for supposing that the mucous
glands become poisonous.

The winter life Of the people in close
