KILLING FROST.
Serious Loss to the Market
Gardeners.

The heavy frost during the
past week has caused quite loss
to the market gardeners in the
Willamette Valley. While it
will not seriously effect the po-
tatoes, the melons and tomatoes
will be a serious loss. On ac-
count of contracts with the new
cannery, many farmers have
planted a large acreage in toma-
toes and we are informed by Mr..
Taylor that at least 80 tons was
the prospective crop. The sea-
son had just commenced and the
crop looked fine. Perhaps not
more than thirty or forty cases
had been canned and very few
more will come in.
The season has been very Pc
culiar, as it is seldom that heavy
killing frost occurs at this sea-
son of the year. AS the spring
was very late it made the season
short for the maturing Of fruits
and vegetables, hence the result
of the frost will be keenly felt
The new cannery will also feel
the effects as it had expected a
fine run from the heavy tomato
crop, which would have made
work for laboring people well
into the winter season. -.

FAMOUS PLATE.


La.sArsss, B.adis.
Two groups of tourists were
s.anding in the Pitt palace before
the large plate of pure silver upon
which Finiguerra, the great master
of early engraving, had depicted his
lovely madonna and Child" in a
trellised arbor covered with roses.
An Italian lady was telling her
friends in an undertone the charm
ing anecdote of Finiguerra and the
laundress.
The artist, it seems, in mastering
the new and difficult art of engrav-
ing upon metal had acquired SIN
gularly keen eye and delicate touch.
and he also possessed number OF
very fine and sharp instruments,
which he used in his work.
Being a.kindly man, he sometimes
placed both his sure hand and his
fine tools at the service of his
friends and neighbors in performing
for them some of the simpler oper-
ations Of surgery until he acquired
quite reputation for his skill In
doctoring their hurts.
One day poor laundress who had
been washing clothes, in wringing
out a garment in which needle had
been carelessly left, ran it deeply
into her hand. Worse yet, it broke
of in the wound, and. . part remain
ed imbedded in the Aesh.s She waa
in much pain, and on her way back
from the stream where she had
been washing she. stopped at the
house Of the artist and was admit
ted.
Entering his studio, she hastily
set down her wet and heavy bundle
and held out the injured hand, beg.
ging his assistance. Eniguerra. left
his work to help her and after long
and delicate manipulation extracted
the broken needle. The woman
thanked him and turned to 60, lift:
ing her bundle from its resting
place.
Then he saw that she had set il
upon one of his engravings. Like
al others at that time, it was plate
Of engraved metal, complete in it.
self and regarded as single and
sufficient picture, exactly as It il
had been a painting.
But as the damp bundle was rails
ed the quick eye Of Finiguerra saw
that it had received an impression
from the engraved picture beneath
and his quick mind seized at once
the suggestion Of the possibility Of
indefinite reproduction from sin.
gle original. So that from the kind.
ness of great artist to poor wash
erwoman sprang the discovery which
has placed the beautiful products Of
the engraver's art within the reach
of all of us today.

aGood Enough" Habit.

There is a habit, very easily con-
tracted, which every one in business
or otherwise should avoid. It is the
"good enough" habit.
If you are building house and
use some faulty timber just because
it looks quite right on the surface,
what can you expect? Why, that ul-
timately the weak point will give
way and disaster may occur. So
the cautious builder makes sure OF
using good material.
So it is with every phase Of life.
Don't be content because thing is
good enough" Remember the time
proved saying that what is worth
doing is worth doing we'll"
In these days of competition the
thing or the man who is "good
enough" is of no use. The best is
none too good for modern business

The specific suEgestions just diseuas-
 al 'nrovide for a limitation of grades deifverabie on a single contract with out placing any restriction upon the extreme range. Most of these su6geS- fions. sas just shown. appear to be ina nracticable. A more feasible restrie- lion upon deliveries is the absolute ex- cmsiori of very low grades from con tract delivery. A suggestion of this sort o,rite generally favored In the cot ion trade Is one for the exclusion of all white cotton below the grade of low
 middiiug. An additional provision. fa- vored by some. 10 that no irregular cot ton, such as tinges and stains. shall be deliverable if It's value is less than that Of low middlinR white. The adoption Of thds 'Iow-middling clause as 1t IS called in ths trade. has been agitated for many, years. Tn the. early nineiies. when the so-called Hatch anti-option bin was before Congress, both the New York and New Orleans exchanges con sldersd the adoption of a contract com tanning such a clause with view 10 guieting the Intense antagonign to the future system as a whole which exist" ed at that time. In the case of New York the new contract was not Intend cd to aupersede. but merely co supple ment the broader contract then in use. ~ -

The first suggestion is for specific contracts; thit Is. that. each contract shall name. on, it's face a single grade or certain specific, grades. This would mean, of, course, that there would be
 no single form. of contract for, future transactions, but an indefinite number. The huyer would know at the time he grades of cotton he would kreceive at it's maturity. Such a contract, if 1t were practicable and could be secured, would go far toward. eliminating some of the. most serious evils which have and particularly. of course, those due to improper establishment of grade differences As a matter of fact. all though a specific contract is advocated by a few. interests in the cotton trade. 1t is generally pronounced utterly im- practicable for purposes of organized future trading, on the ground that few saIIArs would enter into such contracts . The reason for this is that in the or
 5tnarv course of business contracts scfrsl' delivery. and oftentimes in ad- vance of the gathering of the crop. Sinre the general character or a crop may he suddenly changed by abnormal eather conditions. thls means that sellers of future contracts in the spring s, snr,n,er can not possibly know what tha reiative supply of the various ara des will be until the crop is finally SaTVested. Consequently, sellers would
 be unwilling to commit assn tnemseives to

This danger Is regarded an6 with good reason, as fatal ob- lection to Specific contracts for gener- al trading purposes. Another obJecion fo sueb contracts, already noted. is that the requirements of spinners are usual | iy 60 specific. not only as to grade but

AMADOR'S GOLD OUTPUT.

According the report just issued by the United States
geological survey showing the output of California in geld
and silver for the year 1907 the five most productive
ties rank follows Butte $27o5So7 Nevada $2,17o5SS,
Amador $2129697, Yuba $1772o57, Shasta $1,162,2oS
Calaveras $11523o5. The value of Amadors output
virtually exclusively in gold the silver production

producer occupies the satisfactory position of the entire
group of mining counties Butte, which heads the list in

undoubtedly decrease in few years. Nevada county has
held the lead Amador for many years. and may perhaps
