Work at the Locks.

Mr.. J. G. Day, contractor for the
completion of the canal and locks at
the Cascades, was in the city yester-
day, says the Oregonian of Wednes-
day. He says the lower pair of gates
is completed and shut. The water is
not within several feet of the top of the
bulkhead, which has shut it out of the
canal, but it is his intention to remove
part of the bulkhead, and let the water
in against the gates in day or two.
The river will have to rise good many
feet before the water will run over the
gates and stop work in the canal, and
it is possible that it may not rise high
enough this spring. However, the
probability is that the gates will be
covered and work interrupted for a
time, but, after the experience of last
season, this will not amount to much.

Timely Suggestions on an Industry That
Should be in Operation at The Dalles.
Rural Northwest.
There is good deal OF interest shown
at the present time in the subject of
canning fruits in Oregon. There are
quite number of canneries in Oregon,
but nearly all of them have so far failed
to give the returns anticipated by those
who put their money into them. Sew
eral of these canneries were much
larger than the fruit supply of their
localities justified, and for that reason
could not be operated with profit.
There was little known, also, as to what
kinds of fruits and vegetables can be
proftably canned here. There is no
other portion of the United States so
we'll adapted to the production of straw
berries, red raspberries and gooseber=
ries as the Pacific northwest and our
canned strawberries are unexcelled in
quality. The fact must be recognized by
growers that canneries can not be
operated with success unless they can
get their products at a low price. New
brands of canned goods must be both
choice and cheap to find market.
Those fruit and vegetables which we
can produce more cheaply, and at the
same time of better quality, than can
be done elsewhere in the United States
are the foundation for building up
ultimately great canning industry.

Fight With q Panther.

George Hyde, of Kellogg, Douglas
county, had quite an exciting fight
with a panther few days ago. His
dog came upon an old one with three
young, and lively fight ensucd in
which the dog was driven to close
quarters, and was being worsted. Hyde
went to the rescue of his dog, and the
old panther turned upon him. He
succeeded in keeping her off until the
opportunity came for him to fire with
out endangering the life of his dog,
and lucky shot in the back of the
neck stretched the panther dead Mr..
Hyde captured two of the young ones
and still has them as trophies of his
victory. The dog was quite badly
used up,

Wild Cattle.

The band of wild cattle which has
been in the habit of ranging ON Joe
and Fawn creeks, branches of Agency
creek, in the coast range, have changed
theip range, so hunters say, who have
been looking for them. This hand OF
cattle has ranged in the Cascade for
nearly 20 years, and has weathered the
worst winters during that period with
ease, Those killed by hunters in the
spring have been found fat and tender.
The valley cattle as a rule are poor
when spring comes. These wild cattle
are much harder than domestic stock.
and are as shy and hard to come upon
as deer.

what stock they could. Prices went
up as the activity of the buyers in
creased, and not only have thousands
of beeves been bought, but agents
have been sent to the Willamette val
ley to gather up what stock can be
found here. With the rise in the
price of beef there came an extra de-
mand for mutton, and in Crook county

A craw-Fish Cannerx.

The Salem Post says: There was an
agent in Salem today representing a
craw fish cannery in San FRANCISCO.
He was making preparations to estab=
lish a branch in this city, and if the
proper arrangements can be made and
enough craw fish can be found, he will
have several nets cast along at differ
emit points of the river in the vicinity
of Salem. He states that the canning
of this fish Is late thing and in San
Francisco they are considered a del
icacy only to be found in first class
eating houses. We would imagine
that he will find the craw fish very
scarce around here.
