CENTRAL POTATO DEPOT
SUGGESTED BY BULLETIN
be the solution of many of tho.
) present dimcuities, disappoint
ments and defeats."

How co-operation might be
worked out by the potato grow
ers of a given district so as to
eliminate what the compiler
terms "the financial disaster in
tiie marketing of their potatoes
met by the vast majority of Ore
gon farmers for the past three
years" is explained in the con
cluding paragraph of a 40-page
potato bulletin just issued by the
University of Oregon. The bul
letin is called "Markets for Po
tatoes,"" makes a general survey
of the potato situation, and may
lie had on application to the ex
tension division at Eugene.
The paragraph in question is:
"It might be advisable to
establish a central depot at a
convenient shipping plant read
ily accessible to the growers of
the district in which the associa
tion's formed. To this depot all
he growers would ship all their
potatoes where they would be
inspected and sorted. Only
fifiqse of the very highest quality
in every respect "would be mar
keted for seed and for table use,
and these carefully packed and
sold under a name xr brand that
would establish their reputation.
If this high quality was rigidly
maintained and the reputation
fully earned and justified (as has
lieen done sirniliarly for apples
from, certain districts) a pre
mium price above the prevailing
market could be demanded and
depended upon.
V'All culls and surplus could
then be worked up for industrial
Ifurposes and the volume of sup
ply probably would warrant the
erection and operation of the
aiecessary plants for drying,
starch manufacturing and alco
liol distilling. The peelings from
the dryer and the residue from it
and from the starch factory, in-,
eluding the water from the lat
ter, could be used by the distil
lery for the extraction of all re
maining fermentable values.
Tulp mash from the distillery
and the slop could be returned
to the growers for stock food in
proportion to their contribution
of potatoes, or their needs, and
all that finally remained could
he returned to the ground for
.fertilizer.
"In this way every stage of the
operation, every pound of pota
toes raised, might be made to
yield a prpflt to the growers.
This presupposes and includes
mutual efforts for the improve
ment in quality and quantity of
potatoes grown, and for the
combatting and eradication of
disease. It might be advisable
fo grow different varities espec
ially adapted for baking, frying,
"boiling and for high starch con
tent. (While this plan would be
an experiment In its Initial
stages. It is possible that it might
POMONA GRANGE TAKES
UP CORN CONTEST IDEA
The Pomona grange of Lane
county which meets next time,
May 9, 1915, in Springfield, will
take up the matter of separate
granges offering a blooded sow
prize to the individual member
of the organizations for the best
jhalf acre of corn grown in his
district. R. B. Coglon, county
agriculturist, and C. J. Hurd,
state deputy of the grange for
Lane county, visited the mem
bers of the executive committee
of the Pomona grange at Junc
tion City yesterday and discus
sed the question, resulting in the
promise of the members of the
committee to support the move
ment, which has been started by
Mr. Coglon.
"The idea is to get the granges
to take up a regular program
of definite and useful work and
adopt a policy of progressive
farming," said Mr. Coglon upon
his return from the meeting. He
Is very enthusiastic over the
proposition. He believes that
the quality of corn raised in this
county can be improved by such
a contest and the giving of the
prize sow pigs will tend to im
prove the breed of the swine of
the county. Already Willakenzie
and Irving granges have taken
up the idea.
I It is probable that the plowing
contest scheduled for Dexter to
day will be postponed on account
, ot f4the heavy rain last night.
Had not the rain come when it
did the ground would have been
In good shape for the contest,
but now it will probably be en
tirely too wet Mr. Coglon, who
was to have attended and who
suggested the plan to the far
mers of that locality, is much,
disappointed. He said that the
citizens of that locality had made
extensive preparations for the
event.

Mr. Hale's wonderful article and you
will gain an Idea of the purpose that
Inspired tho builders of the Panama
Pacific International Exposition. He
says:
Universal expositions, ot which the
Panama-PaclQc International Exposi
tion Is the fourth In tho United Stated,
havo always, stood for peace.. In Phil
adelphia In 1870 the Hon. Joseph' n.
Hawlcy, president of the Centennial
Exposition. In his opening remarks said:
"From tho association hero of welcome
visitors from nil nations there may re
sult not nlono great benefit to inven
tion, manufacture, agriculture, trado
and commerce, but also stronger Inter
national friendship and more lusting
peace."
"Acquaintance Softens Prejudice."
"Acquaintance softens prejudice" hns
been ringing In my ears ever sluco
those three words were uttered by n
foreign graduate of ono of our Ameri
can universities In a speech delivered
some years ngo. TJio learned stntcH
nfaii, Hon. EUhu Boot, voiced tho Ha mo
scnUmcnt when about to leave the
high oincc of secretary of stato lnsub
stnntlnlly these Words: "It were Impos
sible for any nation to be at war If tho
peoples of tho conflicting countries un
derstood each other." '
Universal expositions soften preju
dices, remove commercial antipathies
and Bcttie political differences by
bringing tbo people of all tuitions Into,
friendly intercourse for tho discussion
of Ideas, the exchange of commodities
and for the advancement of mankind
socially, morally, intellectually and
commercially. They rctlect the thought
and action pf peaceful pursuits and
reach their greatest successes during
or following Jong periods of national
and intcrnntioiiai peace. Their exhib
its arc the product of the arts of peace,
nnd their object Is tho promotion ,of
peaceful activity In thought and word
and deed. They nro tho antithesis of
war, the. embodiment of peace. Their
grounds are pet apart as extraterri
torial, devoted to tho use of all nations
and all peoples on n parity and equali
ty. The Panama-Paclflc International
Exposition grounds today are common
to all. No creed or raco is barred; all
havo equal rights and privileges. It is
neutral ground for warring or tranquil
nations alike. It Is one great democ-.
racy where all unite In contributing to
an expression of gratitude for Jho pres
ent nnd Inspiration for tho future, and
tmenuse the exposition is really 'tho

The Exposition in San Francisco will

can In any way assist lu tho settle

now being waged with such titanic
fierceness, hellish wenpous nnd awful
consequences. Tho Exposition being

New Cycle of Brotherly Love.
Ono effect of the war now In prog
ress will be to emphaslzo the Impor
tance of nnd Intensify tho Interest In
tho great International poaco congress
projected by tho management of tho
Exposition. Let us hope that tills war
may bo recorded history before this
congress convenes. The horrors of
present day warfare will then bo fully
appreciated, and thoso most directly
affected may be available with their
cxpcrlcnco nnd ndvlco to assist In pro

May tho settlement of International
strife by war and blood nnd suffering
and devastation bo supplanted by con

enjoyment or mankind. As John G.
