WHERE LIES THE FAULT?

Each incoming steamer brings with
II a large consignment of farm produce
garden truck and fruit. 1t is not al
all surprising that the latter article
should be shipped into the Astoria mar
ket from California, but It does seem
out of all reason that this city should
have to draw upon the gardens and
farms of California for its potatoes
onions. cabbages. etc.
rs 1t because there is not enough
cleared land in the county Of Clatsop,
or in the lower river country to raise
sufficient vegetables, or is 1t because
the farmers and gardeners are lacking
in that knowledge possessed by some Of
the more successful agricultural coun-
tries of the South and East?
No better example could be followed
by Clatsop county farmers than that
set by the thrifty Danes, where up to
q few years ago the agricultural status
OF that little country Of Denmark waa
deplorable. The farmers there have
the moral backing OF their government,
who assist In every way possible in
bettering the condition OF the farms
and gardens.
The Danish farmer, on the advice OF
the authorities, has adapted his business
to up-to-date requirements. Finding
that the price Of wheat has fallen OFT
so largely as to leave little profit toI
the cultivator, he has turned his hand
to better purposes, and laid himself
out TO produce butter and eggs to the
greatest possible extent the export of
hutter for the past year having exceed
ed the average OF any previous three
years by 100000 pounds. AS for hogs.
the Danes have made the discovery
that they pay best when sent abroad In
the form Of bacon and ham. and they
have erected abattolrs and hog-curing
establishments on large scale. with
most satisfactory results. The result
is that at the present moment Denmark
Is the only country in Europe from
which one hears no complaints Of the
decline OF agriculture and Of the evil
days that are alleged to have overtaken
the farmer.

During this brief conversation the old
settlers were voting c. NJ. Garrison to the
chair.
After this the officers were elected,
everybody present, including the ladies,
voting.
An executive board was elected
consisting of J. G. Williams, Mrs.
NJ. E. Williams. Mrs. !. Z. Ault. James
r. Meade and ]. NJ. Allen.
A motion was made and passed to ex-
tend the period of eligibility to old settler
ship from 1871 to 1873, and an invitation
was extended to all people coming within
the period mentioned to make application
to the secretary, Charles A. Phillips. at
the district clerks office. This, if accepted.
will take in several hundred members
and greatly add to the strength of the So
ciety. Those competent to speak say that
the extension will let in about 500 persons
The society also agreed to hold their
annual ball on Feb. %, Washington's
birthday, at which time they expect to
have an immense day of jollfcation.

KING RENE'S DAUGHTER.

This popular play will be given by the
Wichita Musical club on Monday evening,
Jan. %. This is a very beautiful cantats,
written for ladies' voices In composition
a cantata is similar TO the o-atorio, except
that the music is set TO secular words. to
be sung without action. There is a revival
of interest in cantatas both in this country
and in England. The music of this work
composed by Henry Smart, is most en-
trancing, consisting of chorus parts and
solo music by the club. The concert pro-
gram, before the cantata is worth the full
admission.
This will be the last opportunity to hear
Mr.. and Mrs. Gsrst III concert before their
departure for Europe. Wichita mnsu be-
proud OF such an artist as Mrs. Garst
VINO, wherever she has sung has won ad-
mIrers by the hundreds, both amongst
musicians and the people, who are reach
ed through the heart. Wichita has also
seen the development of Mr. Garst's voice
from the student work of several years ago
TO the splendid basso of today. Success
undoubtedly awaits him in the musical
profession. The Wichita Musical has
been Mrs Garst's special work the past
ten months. From dozen ladies', singing

A CITY OF HOMES.

A report of the state auditor of Indiana,
just filed, shows that there are Az build
ing and loan associations In the state.
The number in Marion county is l42. The
money invested in that county is nearly
four times the amount Of the banking
capital of Indianapolis. There are 267, $50
shares held in that county, and the re-
ceipts for the year 1898 were S.sl5, $50.
More than half the money invested In
buildings iD that city was collected and
loaned through these associations. By
this means large proportion Of the wage
earners own their homes. The principle
upon which these associations is based is
SO we'll established that they absorb most
of the surplus funds OF all the older
cities. Our local association is destined 10
bring great results in the building of
