MANUFACTURLNG.

Chief among the industries OF Aberdeen
is that OF numbering, including logging,
saving and shipping. Not less than five
hundred men are employed in the woods
in this vicinity. Four mills are in opera
ton with a combined daily capacity OF
300 900 feet. One of the mills is exclu-
siyely devoted to the local trade, while
the largest share Of the product OF the
other three is shipped to California
and foreign ports. For several rea-
sons Aberdeen can and does supply
lumber cheaper than either the Columbia
or Puget sound mills. AS shown else
where, our port charges, towage and other
items of ships necessary expenses are
much less. Legs are more easily OBJ
tanned. and therefore much cheaper
than at the other ports mentioned.
The shipment abroad for the year 1890
was $4,000, 600; the home consumption
being about 100000. On the wharf this
lumber represented value of over $780,
900, which was principally paid out here
in wages. Other mills are being erected,
and the product will probably be doubled
during the year 1891.
WOOD-WORA- ESTABLISHMENTS.
After numbering, tine next important
industry is that Of the sash, door, blind
and general Woodworking and turning
establishments. Three Of these are now
in profitable operation, and there is room
for more. The raw material is cheap and
the market convenient.
A factory for furniture exclusively
would be most profitable investment
here, as mas been amply proven by the
work in that lire being done at the sash
factories. Two shingle mills and q box
factory will be ready for business this
spring, and almost any number Of indus
tries Of this kind can find good locations
near this city, where material is easily
obtalned

Another "HOld Your Wheat"

'" uebC
The alliance organ, The State, came
out last week with another "hold
your wheat" circular and presents
the usual array of figures to show
the farmer will profit by the following
advice laid down therein. 1t holds
that Russia is entirely out of the race
and India practically so, and present
and future deliveries from farmers
will fill but q small portion Of the re.
quirements. 1t does not advise the
farmers to create unnecessary scarcity
or repudiate his debts, but to sell
only what he is oblige to when receipts
are large and increasing, and when
they are on q decline to sell only a
certain portion each month. The ex-
porting capacity of the United States
is figured at 14O.OOO,OOO bushels
more than last year. which falls 4O,-
100000 short OF supplying the worlds
deficit, This 4O,OOO,OOO bushels
would supply Europe with bread for
fourteen and one-half days only.
Taking all into account the author of
the circular asserts that if the farmed
does not get twice what is now offerer
for wheat it is his own fault.

A Grave Mistake.

1t is q mistake for farmers to be led
into the notion that the business men
in the town are their enemies-or that
they are reaping great profits. As q
matter Of fact the average merchant
finds it pretty hard squeezing to get
along, pay his bills and pay his help.
Yet many q customer has been helped
over tight place by being furnished
goods on time till the crops come in.
And when a subscription paper is
started to reimburse the unfortunate
man who has been burned out soon
finds it's way to town. Now suppose
you could close up every store in
town but one, how much would you
improve the value of your farm?
What would it benefit the farmer if
all competition were done away with?
The fact is the interest of the farmer
and business men are Identical, and
he who attempts to prejudice one
against the other is a dlsturber OF the
confidence that should be mutual be.

Put Sand on the Rails.

Have you ever noticed the cylinder
shaped can on the top OF every loco
motive boiler? Do you know what it
contains? If not we will inform you
that it is filled with sand and has
pipes connected with it and leading
down to the front OF the large drive
wheels of the engine. Sometimes the
track is slippery--either from frost or
grease being on the rails and the
wheels fail to stick. The engineer, in
this case, opens up q valve and the
sand runs down in front of the drive
wheels, causing them to adhere to the
rail, and the engine moves it's burden
with ease.
So it is with ourselves. Often every.
thing seems to be at standstill or
slipping backward, and our efforts
seem to be fruitless in trying to make
progress. Then it is that We need

Got His Foot Warm.

The other night man was kept
down town by business until a late
hour, and his wife knowing how cold
he would be when he got home, put an
iron on the stove, and when she heard
him open the gate, she jumped up and
hurriedly put the iron on q piece of
flannel, put it in bed for him to warm
his great ugly feet by. The man was
cold, taciturn and cross. He crawled
into bed with a growl, and shuddered
with cold as he stretched himself out.
Then he gave a yell and jammed his
head against the headboard and yell
ed fire and waltzed out on the floor
and around the room in the dark,
straddllng rocking chairs, breaking his
shins on bureau corners and knocking
down brackets with his shoulders, and
upsetting one or two things and filling
the darkness with weird fantastic pro-
family: When his wife lighted the
lamp, they discovered q beautiful
photograph of a fat-iron on the bot
tom of that mans foot, and it was
found that the flannel had somehow
got off the foot warmer. The man
says that hereafter, it he must sleep
with a hardware store he wants it
put in cold.-Webster Reporter.

why Flags Are Half Mast at Sunrise.

am told that the servants at the
Crescent's Bay Ridge House are driven
almost frantic by being constantly
asked "Who Is dead2"
This query is suggested not from any
lack of animation about the club, but
because nearly every morning the club
flag hangs at half mast. The same
question has begun to be propounded
at the Marine and Field club, and in
order that the epidemic may not spread
the following explanation is in order:
When the flag is raised in the morning
the halliards, wet with dew, have
shrunken. Naturally, the moment the
sun is up they get dried out and slack

nomenon was noticed at the state camp

in Kilkenny in the olden time for boys to tie two
cats together by their tails throw them across
line and then stand off and witness their frightful
torture of each other. The tormentors were at
length surprised at their game by an officer, who
cut the cats down with his sword, leaving the two
bleeding tails still hanging across the line. Hence
