SILENCE AND SOLITUDE.

Gods Of the desertl Ye are they
We shun from childhoods earliest breath;
Our passing joys are but your prey;
Ye wait the hours from birth to death
Over soft lawns where blossoms sleep,
Under warm trees where love was borns j.
1 see your naughty shadows creep,
And wait to meet ye there, forlorn-
Afar on ancient sands ye rest,
Carven in stone, where ancient thought
Wrapt ye in terrors-shapes unblest,
Dreadful, by might of ages wrought.
But not alone on Egypt's shore
Sleeps the great desert: everywhere
Where giadness lived and lives no more,
There Is desert of despair.
Strange messengersl Your brows of gloom
Haunt every creature born Of earth;
Ye follow to the darkened room;
Ye watch the awful hour of birth.
Ye show the lovely wayside rose,
Whose antique grace Is born anew,
To eyes Of grief Grief only knows
How tender is the sunsets hue.
Gods Of the desert! By your hand
Through the sad waters are we brought
Into high and peaceful land
To drink of fountains else unsought-

The value of ashes depends, OF course,
largely on the composition of the burned
substance that produces them. They
may contain more or less of potash or
phosphate of lime, according to the kind
of wood that is burned. Wood ashes
are generally valued according to the
amount OF potash they contain, but
some kinds of wood contain appreciate
amounts OF phosphate of lime, and are
therefore more valuable. Pear-tree wood
and trimmings of grape vines are said to
contain more phosphates than woods of
other fruits, and all fruit-tree woods
have more phosphates than woods from
forest trees. Burned bones have their
chief value in the phosphate they CON
tain, but burned bone, unless it is dis
solved by sulphuric or carbonic acid, is
not available as plant food. Caustic pot
ash has, however, some power to make
other mineral plant food available, prob
ably by it's effect in making it ferment
and liberating carbonic-acid gas.
Leached ashes after long exposure to
the air absorb ammonia, and thus make
them often better fertilizer than before
their potash was leached out of them.

PORTLAND MARKET.
A Resume of the Condition of Its DIFF
ferent Departments.

An unusually heavy amount of trad
ing was done in the wholesale line. BUSH
ness in every line was very good.
Receipts of fruits were heavier than at
any previous time this season. Water
melons, cantaloupes, grapes and peaches
are plentiful. Produce is coming in
freely, and the market is in much better
condition than it has been. Eggs are in
sufficient supply to satisfy the demand.
Butter has declined cents all around.
The drop is occasioned by large receipts
of Eastern stock. From now on Eastern
butter, owing to the superior way in
which it is packed, will be- carried in
heavy supp y, and the Oregon product
will be forced into the background. If
farmers would use more care in putting
up their butter, it could easily control
the market instead of inviting Eastern
competition and thus lowering prices.
WHEAT.
The local market has a firm tone in
sympathy with foreign advices, but
trading as yet is very quiet. Public ca
bles report cargoes firm, but not quotably
higher. Liverpool spot wheat is firmer
and options fractionally higher, with the
exception of October.
