H B Ashland is situated on the Shasta , H Route. It 13 a division point , with a fine H B depot , eating house , round house of fif- Sj teen stalls and freight house. The city "S has fair traffic facilities , which are in- B H creased by a fast train every time a B ' B steamer leaves Portland for San Fran- B 9 * Cisco. In schools the city has two inter- B 9 mediate and one high school buildings , B S besides a state normal school. It is well H , B supplied with business houses and pro- B fl Sessional men , newspapers , hotels , etc. B B Besides there are a number of manufac- B B turing establishments. The city is well B B supplied with streams for water power B B and irrigation. The soil is of three sorts , B B granite , a sandy loam with vegetable B B mould , and a black clay soil called sticky , B fl which resembles a soil I have seen in B B Illinois. It is hard to work unless in K B proper condition , but then is as mellow B B as an ash heap , and very rich , producing B B ! 30 to 40 bushels of wheat , 50 to 75 busli- B B I els of oats , per acre , depending upon the B B I amount of irrigation. Some corn is B B rsised. The ground is very stony , and B Bj much labor is required to clear the laud B B of stones , some of which are very large. fl B There are many varieties of timber , pine , m fl oak , alder , ash , balm of gilead , cotton- m B | wood , maddrone , a species of laurel , M B | manzineta. a low shrub-like tree , red and M fl white fir. The fir tree is very useful , M fl grows tall and straight and with but few B fl limbs , any size from a fishing-rod to a B X sawlog four feet in diameter. Besides B S up in the mountains they have the cedar , B fl jew and other kinds that I have not be- B fl come acquainted with. The yew is a H B / very heavy wood , better for posts than Bfl : IC cedar. Gooseberries , raspberries Hfl | and blackberries and grapes grow wild Kfl here. C. W. Roper.

This be- Hl hei is an old one , is nearly univer- H sal > an& has arisen , not as the re- Rk suit of the teachings o the medi- H8 | ml fraternity , but has been learned H iu the bitter school of experience. BHp Depression of the nervous system Sf at the approach of spring is a fer- KI tile source of blood impurities , Bk general lassitude , dull , heavy sen- BB | sations , continual tired feelings , Sf with irregular appetite , and some- I bII times loss of sleep. M § Pe-ru-na meets every indication fllf nnd proves itself to be perfectly H $ adapted to all their varied peculi- Hl arities. Pe-ru-na invigorates the Bfi ; system , rejuvenates the feelings , Hl § restores the normal appetite and BrI procures regular sleep. That tired Hn ! | leeling which is the natural result Bft ie depressing effect of warm EHf weather immediately after the in- Hf "wgorating cold of winter , quickly BEf disappears when Pe-ru-na is taken. H&I Thousands are daily testifying to Hji , its priceless benefits.

I must have my little essay Written in a week or two ; If I should not get it ready , Wonder what they then will do ? 12TH Grade Soliloquizer. The 4th , 5th and 6th grades had a lan tern class , Saturday night. The class in heau letters is progressing swimmingly at least lovingly. There was only one session of school , Monday , on account of the deep snow. Misses Edith Oyster and Maud Doan were visiting High school friends , Friday last. The school people have been under going "those dreadful examinations" for the past week. The over-sufficiency of snow caused the attendance to be reduced somewhat , Monday morning. Messrs. Abuer Clark , Frank Travers and Kuud Stangeland were up looking over our school S3-stem at the east , last Friday afternoon. Reverends Hart L. Preston , George W. Sheafor and R. A. Russell were looking after the spiritual welfare of the schools , Monday morning. 'Comity Superintendent IA. . Carna- han of Bartley was in attendance at the schools , last Friday , and made a short address to the pupils during the day. He was also a lantern class visitor in the evening. Next week will be the usual spring va cation. The school buildings will un dergo the regular spring house cleaning , and the pupils will have a short time in which to recover from the annual spring fever before going to work again. The lantern class of Friday evening last was better attended than usual. A short talk was made on the present con dition of Cuba by the Superintendent , and after the collection .of views of scen ery in Switzerland were shown , the pro gram concluded by being finished. Two of the smaller 12th grade boys , living a few miles from town , showed great sagacity and forethought in not coming to school , Monday morning , through the awfully deep snow. They informed us that they made the attempt but that the drifts were so deep that every step they took they would sink iu up to their ears. They then started to shovel a path to town but were unable to get it finished bjT the time school began. And , of course , it naturally hurts their feelings when the rest of the grade say that the stayed away to avoid the ex amination. Make a Strong Team. Sunday aweek ago , H. F. Sutton drove out to his lately acquired farm , a few miles southwest of the city , to see how the crops are coming on. He took his guu and dogs along as a matter of self- protection , aud Dr. Gage for professional services , should such an emergency arise. While the nimrods were using their agricolous optics , all unmindful of game , horse , or aught else , a train of cars and a snorting Burlington locomotive came around the bend , and their horse uncere moniously left the country , and Sut. and the doctor had the felicity of hauling the vehicle to the farm house , a mile or so distant , Sut. in the head pull and the di- ciple of Esculapius in the rear push. When they reached the house they were puffing like a paragraph praising pink pills for poor , pale people. After swear ing everybody but the dairy maids to secrecy most solemn , they returned to the city. But like murder the supposed secret will out and here it is. Call for Sealed Bids.

It appearing to the board from the protest and demand of the Lincoln Land Co. and the law in the case , that there had been an illegal levy of one mill for high school fund in school district number 17 , the following order is here by made and entered of record : "It is hereby ordered that J. II.Berge , coun ty treasurer , refund to the Lincoln Land Co. the sum of $ S.8o on account of high school fund tax illegally levied and assessed against school district number 17 , and paid under pro test , and charge same to high school fund" . Verbal complaint having been made by t\ V. Moore that S. G. Goheen had failed to schedule certain property for taxation for the year 1896 , Mr. Goheen appeared before the board and made a statement of the facts in the premises , whereupon the board finds from the evidence that there is not sufficient cause to sustain the complaint and assess said addi tional property to said S. G. Goheen. On motion board adjourned to meet April 30th , 1S97. Attest : R. A. Green , County Cleik.
