The Corvallis Gnzette says: Fl +.
Fisher, proprietor Of the Corvallis mills
recently purchased one and one-fourth
tons Of sewing twine, the remaining
stock Of the Albany fax mill. 1t Is as

failure of the concern was due princi'
pally to the fact that twine dealers ia

IN Oregon an article was being marii-
laetnred equal in quality to the output
OF Eastern mills, and was being placed
on the market at price so low TINT
the California dealer could not com

A Scent Farm.

Among the various efforts which the
Government of Victoria have recently
put forth in order to promote the in
dustries OF that colony the establish
ment of n scent farm at Dunolly plays
n role which is comparatively modest
in itself, but is, nevertheless, being
taken advantage of for the purpose of
providing n new occupation, more es'
pecially for women. In addition to
looking after the farm. the manager
thereof holds daily classes in order to
teach the dry processes OF the extrac-
ton of scent, as well as the distillation
OF roses and lavender, the treatment
necessary for the growth of the yari'
ous scent plants, the soils suitable for
them, the times of planting aud prun-
ing and other operations, The iuea
is that the scent-making should he
combined with bee-keoping and poul-
ry-farming-sll three affording suit
able employment for women and that
in this way the gentler sex should be
provided with an additional means OF
earning livelihood, and. at the same
time, make a still further contribution
to the industrial wealth OF the. colony.
