Things hev changed" The
husky stranger with auto-sparkers
in his eyes has discovered us; and
by jingsl It looks like he was going
to stake us out and locate US. He
sees at a glance what we have been
a lifetime finding out-or forget
ting (for we must have known it,,
and he is swapping up bargains and
lands and business. He is cutting
out the underbrush and letting in
the sun: cleaning out the fence cor
ners and trimming up the long-ne-
elected orchards. He is waging war
on bugs and Goblin moths; on sloth
and Incidence; on old methods and
antediluvian ideas; on wait till to-
morrow, take It easy" mossback-
ism. He is putting corsets and shoes,
and glad rags and ribbons on the
big, beautiful Willamette valley;
educating her, putting style in her
walk; cleaning her teeth, and max
ing her, indeed, fair to look upon.
Nature did her part, and made her
beautiful. and now you just wait o
few years until these fellows get
through with her, and have her rig
ged out with a decOlette gown and
all her fxin's, and she will be the
prettiest and sweetest thing that
ever came down the pike. SURE.

High Pressure DAYS.

Men and women alike have to
work necessarily with brain and
hand to hold their own nowadays.
Never were the demands of business,
the wants of the family, the re-
quirements of society, more numer
Gus. The first effect of the praise
worthy effort to keep up with all
these things is commonly seen in a
weakened or debilitated condition of
the nervous system, which results in
dyspepsia, defective nutrition of
both body and brain, and in extreme
cases in complete nervous prOstra-
tion. 1t is clearly seen the what is
needed is what will sustain the sys-
TEN, give vigor and tone to the
nerves, and keep the digestive and
assimilative functions healthy and
active. From personal knowledge,
we can recommend Hoods Sarsapar-
lila for this purpose II acts on all
the vital organs, builds up the whole
system, and fits men and women for
these high-pressure days. d-&-w

night like mushrooms in a cow pas
ture after a warm rain
Then the homeseeker is here, too,
looking over the level lands of the
valley and casting critical and OBJ
serving eyes on the prolific slopes
that border It. He is not only look
ing at it, but he is buying it, and
lots Of it. Not only buying lots Of it,
but he is writing back to Ohio, or
Indiana, or Missouri, or whatever
the place was he put in his time at
before he came to Oregon to live;
for his brothers, uncles, grandfath-
ers and all his wife's folks. to come
out at once to the original garden
of Eden and get in while the gate Is
open and the grounds uncrowded.
It is a great thing for those who
come, but 1t is a greater thing for
the valley, which has been for years
asleep, like a big anaconda with so
much inside of it it couldn't get
awake long enough to enjoy it. 1t
is what the valley needs. 1t needs
new blood, new enterprise, new en-
ergy. 1t needs men who have grown
up where they had to wrest from
stubborn soil and an unfriendly eli
mate sall that they acquired. We
old-timers have had 1t too easy. The
ripe peaches have dropped into our
mouths, when we had energy enough
to get them open, and, so to speak,
our corn has been shelled for us.
Did we hustle our potatoes out of
the ground in the fall and bury them
again three feet under it to protect
them? Not much We let them
stay in the ground until the spring
plowing, when we picked them up,
if we thought we needed them, thus
killing a couple of birds, metaphor
ically at one pot-shot. Our cabbage
crop stood out all winter, enough for
us and the cows. Our pumps did not
have to be packed away in the Gel
lar to keep them from freezing; and
the seldom winter egg did not freeze
and crack open down the back like
a locust before it's mother had time
to cackle. Our grain stood in the
fields until we got through fishing
and hunting and got ready to cut 1t,
or let the stock in to do 1t for us
and save the work We gathered our
winters firewood when the beavers
got through cutting it. We have
lived from "cackle to mouth, and
when the hens laid soft-shelled eggs
because we would not find time, or
develop the energy, or our wives
couldn't, to pack a little lime into
their neighborhood, we have patted
our climate on the back and rejoiced
over the fact that we could get the
eggs contents without having to
break such awful hard shells, like
the less fortunate ranchers in Iowa
or the effete east had to. We milk
ed our COWS when the calves didn't
butt in and do 1t for us; and we left
our plows, harrows and other farm
tools wherever we happened to use
them last, with the supreme conf
dence that none of our neighbors,
or, for that matter, none of the
whole caboodle of Oregonians, were
built on a plan that would permit
them to appropriate to their own
use anything that required work to
use It. And so on, TO the end of tho

While the winter was rather more
disagreeable than common, and the
weather such as to preclude the do
ing OF much outside work, the past
month has been fine enough to make
up for it, and the farmers have been
taking advantage of every minute
Of it to get the ground seeded.
The area sown to wheat is rather
above the average, and the indica-
tions for a big crop are more than
usually good. The freezing weather
was thought to have damaged the
winter wheat some, but this is now
found to be trivial in amount, and
is more than Offset by the heavier
spring sowing.
While less favored countries are
just beginning to realize that spring
is at hand, the favored Willamette
valley already seems on the verge
of summer. The grass is luxuriant
and has been furnishing fine pastur-
age for at least six weeks. In fact,
it is now tall enough to bend be-
meath the soft breezes from the Pa
cific, and undulating sea of verdure.
Cherry and pear trees are already
sending their snowy petals down to
the green sward in showers of frag-
rant snow, and the apple trees are
with gentle touch pushing their pink
buds open and letting them peep out
into world of warmth and lowell
ness.
The leaves on the oaks are "as

The "daffy-down-dillies" have al

while the gaudy tulip and delicate
waxen hyacinths flaunt their gay
colors boldly and without rivals, and
the lilaos are beginning to open up
their odor-laden little cups and set
a dainty table for those vagrant
troubadours, the yelIow-epauleted
bees. How the piratical little free
rovers of the billowing clover seas
ravage the cloisters and pillage the
sanctuaries of the flowers, the
houses OF refuge for all the delicate
bits of life-pollen, animated dust,
too diminutive for human vision!
