FARM NEWS AND VIEWS.

Variety of food is essential for all ami
mails. To contine pig and give it moth
ing but grain will sooner or later result in
indigestion and diseases. Many of the
so-called cholera victims have succumbed
to grain diet. Bulky food is essential.
Grass and roots or any succulent food,
will prove more beneficial than medicine.
If an animal receives variety of food
it will be free from many diseases due to
indigestion.
There is wide field open for the intro
duction of breed of rapid-walking horses.
The horse that walks fast is useful in all
departments of the farm and is also excel
lent for service on the road
Cutting up the fodder before feeding
saves more than the labor required, as a
larger proportion OF the fodder will be
digested.
Keep cream at about 60 degrees. Do
not allow it to become too warm. Ii is
not advisable to mix cream of different
ages. Much poor butter butter is made
because cream is kept too long while wait
ing to accumulate enough for churning,
which often happens VIII ere but one or two
cows are kept.
Farmers in the West find that it pays to
raise heavy draught horses for the large
cities, especially for nse in drays.
1t is contrary to the law of improvement
to retain grade males from among the
young stock. Now matter how promising
a young bull or boar may be, it will fail
to give satisfactory results unless it is pure
bred.
When suckers appear at the base of an
apple tree let them grow until a few leaves
appear before pulling them off, and there
will be less liability of more appearing
than if they are broken off when they
first start.
On large farm it is as important to
have good roads leading to the fields, to
reduce cost of hauling, as to have good
highways
Sow peas and oats together, and when
high enough the crop may be used for soil
ing. A combination of the two provides
very succulent mess for the cows, which
will be highly relished by them.
1t does not pay to keep stock simply to
retain the fertility of the soil. Use the
best breeds and thus compel the soil to
produce profit through the agency of the
stock.

CITY COUNCIL.

Upon receipt OF dispatch that the
de posted 10 the credit OF Albany, In San
Francisco by Steinh2rt. Mayor Finn
called special meeting of the city conn
Gil last evening.
The matter Of payment OF interest on
the bonds was considered, and resoln-
ton Was adopted providing for the pay
ment Of all warrants made previous TO
Jar. 1875. and interest on ali warrants
since Jan. 0.Ise4. This will probably ex-
hzuss the so. ESQ
As holders OF warrants have expected
10 rscesve interest from the date OF the
warrants and many OF them were pur-
chased with that in view, the resolution
viii cause surprise.
The situation Is peculiar one Il has
sssen supposed that the old warrants bore
interest; bsIr as matter OF fact there
was never zny such provision IN any OF
the ordinances. Some OF the bridge
warrants, ,of which there are bout 5000,
specially specify interest, and vet II IN
donbseiIy cannot he collected as there
was no authority for IL, to say nothing
about there being no authority for issu-
Ing OF the warrants N excess OF wha;
was allowed by the city ch2rtez.. On
Jan. %. 1894, an ordinance was passed
providing for the payment OF interest on
future warrants issued, and no reference
| was made to old warrants, which viii
only receive interest from Jan. %, 1884
by reason of the resolution OF the city
council. On the face Of il it looks ike 3
suit Tor inserast previous 70 Jan. %, 1894
but in all probability there will be none,
as it is very doubtful If il could he col
lecteSi. besides it might put in iespardy
the principal itself.

with several Eastern Oregon men with
five car loads of horses, of which fifty
horses belonged , to Mr.. Pennington.

horses than they anticipated, clearing
from $40 to $25 head. Mr.. Pennington
reports great improvement in times
particularly towards and in the southern
stetes, where there has been big crop
OF cotton, which commands a good price.

A Dry House Burned.

1t was not much OF fire; but the
burning OF r. Veal & Sons dry house
tins afternoon was the most OF a blaze
for long time. The dry house located
near the chair factory was discovered on

It was full of chair backs, rounds and
legs and made a hot fire. A couple OF
streams OF water promptly put on extin-
guished the flames in few moments,
but left the building and contents a
charred mass. The loss is $500 or $500,
with no insurance.

A GOOD SHOWING.

Postal receipts are generally consider
ed good criterion of the business pulse
OF community. Depressed times al
ways cause falling off and improved
times an increase. The receipts of the
Albany postofiice for July 1895 are 40
per cent more than they were for July
1884, fact that speaks for itself.

the tree was swept from the track without

his capture. Constable Dan Linton, of
Eugene, got it into his head that Whit

He had been imprisoned in the Montana

OF burglary and had served two years

when he escaped. So do not 20 to the
track next Saturday, as Philpoti will not
be well enough TO run. An officer from
Montana will probably reach Eugene by
