GRADE THE FRUIT.

The all important subject which should
attract the attention of the hortlculturist
who is raising fruit for market is the one of
properly grading the fruit. Even Mr..
Grinrod grades his onions before marketing
them as will be shown in his excellent arti-
Gle on another page of this issue. Some o.
the finest fruit that has ever been sent out
of the state of Oregon for inspection and
criticism, the word has come back, ''It is
the finest we ever saw, but it is not prop
erly graded" Then here is the point: fruit
buyers and critics are always looking for
some point where they can get hold to
run down the fruit and have an excuse for
paying less than the article is worth. With
the fruit of the Northwest the only point
discovered is that it is not properly graded.
This is the easiest of all defects to remedy.
Grading is something that can he done by
anyone that is able to handle fruit. All it
requires is pouring the fruit in, turning a
crank and then carrying it away. 1t is not
like the drying of fruit, where it requires a
man with some experience to cure it exactly
right. No man can dry fruit and get the
best price for it even ii he is an expert. uu-
less it he graded. because it cannot be dried
evenly unless first graded. 1t is simply i'm
possible to dry large fruit and small fruit
alike when both are dried together; one will
be dried to chip or the other will be too
green to keep. This will, in a great meas
ure, decide the price to be obtained by
growers of the Northwest.-Northwest Pa
cific Farmer.

THE PAINTER OF .'THE ANGELUS. :"

A short way from Paris on tie border of
the forest of Fontainebleau, is the little viii
| lage of Barbizon whose narrow streets,
lined with poor stone cottages, are sacred to
the memory Of band of artists who lived
there painting the surrounding country and
peasants. Among these Jean Francois
Millet stands first, and here he painted
The Angelus, which created such
furore here few years agO,-in little,
dark, unwarmed studio which he had built
beside his cottage. Millet was peasant
and his pictures are songs of the soil, of the
sowing, the winnowing, and daily toll, of
the poetry and dignity of labor. The fact
that he never used a model to paint from IS
so unique as to deserve chronicling and
proves, as nothing else does, the remarka.
BILE strength OF the mans imagination, as
well as technique. He did not live to see
his pictures generally appreciated; his life
was one of poverty. and struggles to gee
bread for his children; and he died, under
distressing circumstances, during a tit of
dependency.
1.-The Angelus," for which $100,0 900 has
been recently refused, was originally sold
for a mere song; and it is heartrending
when one reads the long list of his pictures,
which our American millionaires have paid
for so dearly, to think that Millet suffered
actual want. 1.-The Knitting Lesson" and
''The Sower," in the w. K. Vanderbilt
gallery, New York, and "The Sheepfold,"
in Mr.. Walters gallery, Baltimore. are fa-
miiar through etchines and engravings. |
"Going to Work" is not seen so often.
On great rock in the forest of Fontaine-
bleau the French government has fxed-in |
tardy recognition of her celebrated sons-a
bronze bas. relief of the heads of MilleS and |
Theodore Rousseau. In lite these two
artists were near neighbors and great
friends; and Rousseau, who was great
landscape painter, often shared his income
with Millet, and, under the euise of ga rich
American" bought several of his pictures

o. P. MATTERS.

The report that Supt. Mulcahy, of
the Oregon Pacific company, had been
in San Francisco to secure another
steamer for the Yaquina-S San Francis
co route is not strictly correct. As is
well known the management of the
Oregon Pacific have endeavored to OBJ
tain the storage of large amount of
grain adjacent to their line, and their
efforts. to all indications will be success
full. Owing to the scarcity of money it
was thought that considerable portion
of this grain, especially oats, would
seek the San Francisco market IT
once, and that'th steamer Willamette
Valley might not be able 20 handle"it
expeditlously. Mr.. Mulcahy, there
fore, went to the city for the purpose of
ascertaining whether, if he required an,
other vessel, he would be able to OBJ
tain it. We understand, he received
satisfactory assurances.
The Oregon Pacific, like other roads,
is economizlng to considerable extent.
The operating expenses have lately
been reduced $500 per month. The
offices at Chitwood, Lyons and Harris
have been discontinued temporarily,
and the shops at Yaquina are closed
for thirty days. The salaries of en-
ployes were also subjected to a slight
shave.

BUILD THE ROAD.

Crook county has large amount of money
to be expended on road work in the near fu-
ture and there is so=ie discussion as to where
it shall be applied. There is strong dis.
position to build wagon road to connect
with the eastern terminus of the Oregon
Pacific, and as the extension of the railroad
may be delay ed for an indefinite time it
would seem the part of wisdom for the peo-
pie of Crook county to put the money ON
the proposed road. In this undertaking they
ought to receive much assistance from the
west side of the mountains. They would
have access to the San Francisco market and
better communication with Portland. 1t
would also open up a market for much Will
lamette valley produce, and be of vast bene
fit to both sections Albany would, per-
haps, receive more trade by the opening of
the road than any other town, and ougho to
take up the matter in earnest. The Oregon
Pacific could also we'll afford to give sub
stantial aid to the enterprise. On this sub
ject the Prineville News says:
''This county has now an almost princely
sum to be used in building and repairing
roads, in fact enough money if properly used
and iudiciously expended to build and re-
pair all the roads needed. And in the ex-
pend,ture of this money the people are ill.,
terested, and If any of our officials think
any part of the money can be jobbed out
to favorites, or wasted, they are mistaken.
The road leading towards The Dalles is
plenty good enough now, the proposed Nc
Pherson canyon road is not needed, and
would cost more than it is worth if it was
needed. If we want to open road leading
to railroad let us head for Albany. The
people of this county have had entirely
enough of The Dalles. We have fed, paid
tribute to- and been robbed by that way
station long enough. Let us all pull loose,
work for ourselves and build up Crook
county.
"There is better market for all we have
to sell at Albany than there ever was or will
be at The Dalles, and all we want to buy,
such fruit flour, bacon, lard and such
like is far cheaper, so if any of this road
money must he spent in reaching a railroad,
let it be spent in that direction. Besides all
money spent on the Mcpherson canyon road
would simply be so much paid out in the
interest of two toll roads,"

At the court house in this city, Au-
gust %, 1898. E. M. Rutherford and
Miss Minnie Clelnons were united in
marriage. The contracting parties are
travelling through the country by team,
and are accompanied by the mother of
the bride. The bride and groom had
been attached to each other for some
time and they became SO deeply affiict-
ed with that "tired feeling" SO common
to lovers, that progress of the party
was seriously impeded. The fond par
ent, therefore, decided to administer
trial bottle of matrimony.
A dense gloom pervaded the coun-
tenance of Miss Minnie Monteith, of
Albany, a few days ago, occasioned by
the death, at an advanced age, of
Canary Bird. He was the pet of the
young lady and had accompanied her
on visit to this city, soon after which
he became disconsolate, passed into a
d serious decline, and finally took
flight to the haven of final rest Set
apart for the feathery tribe. He was
wonderful singer, eighteen years old,
and had been member of the Mon
teith family for sixteen years. The
remains were conveyed to Albany
where the interment took ,,place with
appropriate ceremony.
Is corporal punishment ever justi,
fiable2 1t is, exactly as surgical
operation is iustifable when all other
means have been tried and failed,
writes Elizabeth Robinson Scovil in a
thoughtful article ON "The Punishment
of Children" in the September Ladies'
Home Journal. To whip a child for
every trivial offense renders him cal
Ions and blunts his sense of right and
wrong. If he wantonly inflicts pain
on others he must be made to feel pain
himself. 1t is the stern law of retri-
button whose workings he cannot es-
cape in after life. Willful cruelty, per-
sistent disobedience may be punished |
thus, but it is a serious matter to run
the risk of arousing the passions
rather than OF convincing the reason.

A Fashionable Relic of Barbnrism,

The painting of the face is one of The
most curious relics of barbarism ON record
dating back to the very infancy of the race.
The first men painted their faces in time OF
war to make their aspect more terrible,
and in time of peace to render themselves
mere attractive to the fair sex. The sense
of color in those primitive epochs was far
from being as delicate as that Of the mod
ern aesthetic. If the pale shades invented
by the dyer of these days had then been
known, they would have been despiscd as
Offering nothing tangible to the vision.
The first colors were red, yellow, blue and
black, found in u state OF nature or pre-
pared by simple methods, and the only
rule of art for their use was that they
should be literally applied. The American
Indians, when they crossed Behring strait
from Asia or were blown across the Pacific
at some date so distant that it can only be
guessed at, brought the custom with them,
and those which civilization has spared
preserved it to the present day i'll its pris-
tine purity.
All the ancient tribes of the north of Eu.
rope practiced a similar mode of decoration
when discovered by the Romans--those of
Germany (mentioned by Tacitus), the Brit
ons and the rest almost without exception.
The Picts, who were a Scottish tribe, must
have used an abnormal quantity, as their
name implies, to have justified the special
appellation. The custom was from the
first so general, SO typic of savagery that It
resembles al instinct-that is, it is one Of
those blind impulses of uncnlightened hui
mainly which only Il high state of ~civiliza-
ton could correct in the case of men, and
In the case of women an object more fem
