soli, the drainage, the direction of tbe
slope and tbe central location should
be considered. No school ground
should ever contain less than one acre,
with a froutage of ISO feet and a
depth of 210 feet. In the lurgcr con
solidated district it should contain not
less t ti a a two and may very properly
contain three acres. If possible It
should be an elevated piece of ground,
a small knoll or a gentle slope, and the
drainage should be away ' from the
yard and bouse. Tbe aoll ahould be
light, dry and porous. A saudy or
gravelly subsoil affords the best drain
age, while an eastern or u southern
slope secures rapid evaporation. . Un
der no circumstances should the stra
tum be clay Impermeable to ground
water. It Is desirable that the school
house should he located uear the geo
graphical center of the district, and
the board should select the site wltb
this in mind, hut the site should be
high and dry uud tbe brightest and
most beautiful BKt near the center.
Under uo conditions should pleasant

"The foundation walls of the school
house should bu brick or stone and ex

walls should be at least one foot In
thickness uud extend about three feet
above the surface. It Is usually well
to bavd a vertical air chumher, and if
there Is no basement suitable ventila
tors should be provHedeou each of the
four sides so as to permit of thorough
ventilation of the space between the

provided for these opeuings lu order

Comfort For Stay at Homo Mothers.
"We are staying home this summer,"
aid tbo young mother, "as we do not
think tbo buby old enough to be taken
out of Its usual environment, and we
would not go without blm." There
are no doubt thousand of young moth
era and fathers doing the same thing.
Tbey realize that there are a certain
number of years of their Uvea that
tbey must give to the children and
that they must put aside then own
comfort In order to do It Mother
don't break down when they are doing
this sort of work as a general thing
and should try to live as calmly and
comfortably us possible under the cir
cumstances, it Is always wltb relief
that one bears tbe young mother say
"we" are staying at home, for the
father owes It to bis child as much as
the mother to be uear It during the
critical months of babyhood. Together
tbey can most certainly do better for
tbe child than either one could alone,
and along with tbe care of mother
hood should go hand In band tbe re
sponsibilities of fatherhood. Tbe child
wbA la only mothered lose much In
Its life, for the father Influence Is
often sane where motherhood Is only
weet The well brought np child
must bave the father's help as well as
tbe mother' through every step of bis
life, and he generally get It In Ameri
ca, whatever may be said of the better
training for parenthood In other coun
tries. Tbe father ha a double duty
to perform, for while be looks out for
bis child be must also see that the
mother keeps herself In condition. An
Irritable mother will very likely bave
the same kind of child. She may not
be at all at fault, having been .render
ed physically Incapable of caring prop
erly for her child by worries of one
kind or another. Ho the young bus-
band must see that she Is amused if
necessary, that she has nourishing food
and that she Is not unduly worried by
all tbe business troubles of the family.
That precious baby does not realize all
the sacrifices that are made for him,
and be never will be aware of them
until be, too, stands with a child of
bis own In bis iirins and tbe pride of
fatherhood in Ills eyes.

Address Delivered I n
Lakevlew by O. L. 8mlth
of O-W. R.&N.
Educating ths Ch ldrsn.
The bishop of I.omlo'i m-e said- "1
am convincit) tlnti lite uplifiitiK of the
morality of our :eii!e lii-s above all
and ever.vllii:: else hi educating our
childreu nitionuliv uud lorully. I be
lieve ui it i more evil u is been uoue oy
the squuiiniislmess of indents who are
afraid to Instrm t iht ir childreu in the
vital facts of Jife than by all the other
agencies of vice put together."
Of this same phase of education Dr.
Rosalie Slaughter Morton of New York
soya:
"The classes in social settlement are
doing a tremendous work In giving
both boys aud girls many Impersonal,
wholesome Interests, and In each of
these settlements there, should be class
es for fathers and mothers, 'where tbe
sex question la taken up frankly."
Wook End Gifts.
Tbe house party guest who cannot
think of a suitable gift for a family of
children should look over an assort
ment of boxes fitted with all sorts of
indoor and outdoor games for boys
and girls and selling at the smallest
prices. A box, for example, contain
ing two little tennis rackets wltb balls
and a Jumping rope Is 25 cents, and
for a larger child a box with two
rackets and balls Is 50 cents or $1. A
box of battledore and shuttlecock 1
SO cents or lu larger size $1. A special
outfit for little girls Includes a battle
dore set, a catchuball and a jumping
rope, all with white and gold handles.
It la 75 cents. A cat cha ball with a
trumpet end that Issues a startling
bhist is 15 cents.
"Ssoing Things at Night."
If mothers notice that tbe brains of
their little ones conjure up uncanny
sights uud thoughts from the shadows
of a room more or less dark let the
light burn brightly. To force a child
to become accustomed to tbe darkness
is a grave error if its uervous system
is so organized that this forcing is
productive of a fright.
- The uervous system of a child la a
very susceptible organisation, and the
deleterious impressions made upon It
will often make tbelr influence felt
throughout Its whole after life. If the
child usks for a light under such cir
cumstances do not refuse it
A Birthday Ring From Gsrmany.
A newly Imported novelty from Ger
many Is a wooden birthday cake rlug
brightly painted in a manner to appeal
to children uud pierced with boles, In
which the birthday candles ure to be
Bet. As tbe holes are many, It is possi
ble to bave as many candles as nre
necessary, even when the childreu of a
family nre crown up. The ring of
wood is only about un inch thick, and
It is Intended that the cake be set in
side this rim.

"There I no disputing tbe tact that
the practice of growing stock on fre
range, and either marketing "grist
beef direct from the range or selling
to farmers for feeder in tbe corn belt
to be fattened, has not only passed tbe
limit, but it is rapidly on tbe decline.
Not only is tb are of open range de
creasing but what I lett baa been
overstocked to anch an extent that It
takes great many acre to furnish feed
for one steer. Often tbi feed is so
abort tbat cattle come off tbe range in
poor condition, making the cost of win
ter feed very expensive. Tbere is but
little left of what nsed to be winter
feed, and any scheme for regrasaing
tbe worn oat range will prove abhor
tive without a radical change in both
paat and present method ot handling.
All this clearly indicate tbat tbe
neer supply oi me iuture must come
from tbe farm of tbe countryfenced
fields and cultivated land. Tbi means
tbe radical change in method of feed
ing or much higher priced beef. Tbere
re today several method in practice,
all of wbicb will need some mod idea
tion to meet tbe requirement of con
stantly changing condition.
Baby beef seem to suggest one line
tbat may be followed with profit?
Even with high price prevailing for
grain and bay during tbe past two
years, tbe men that bave been produc
ing baby beet bave been able to make
fair prof ita, much better profits, in fact
than those wbo fed mature stock, whe
ther such stock was borne grown or
from the range. With tbe three-year-
old or four-year-old range steer in tbe
feed lot, two to two and a bait ton of
bay and one ton ot grain per bead is
necerssry to finish a 1200 to 1500 pound
steer. Un the other band, it baa been
demonstrated again and again tbat a
well bred calf kept growing tbriftly
op to eighteen or twenty four months
of age can be finished in condition to
top the market with less grain and bay
during it life than is required to finish
tour-year-old: tbe two-year-old being
better beef weighing aa much and sell
ing for as high a price per pound. One
carload of yearling steer recently sold
in tbe Portland market for an average
price of $65.00 per bead. It would sem,
then, tbat to cheapen tbe cost of beef,
it will be necessary to take advantage
of such well recognized facts aa these:
lbe younger tbe animal, tbe less
feed it takes to make a pound of gain.
Tbe greater tbe variety in ration, tbe
greater tbe gain per pound of feed.
tnereiore tne less win De tbe cost per
pound of meat made. The animal, old
or young, uses the proteids and carbo
hydrates in certain proportions . more
or less of either than tbe animal use
is wasted: therefore, tbe nearer tbe ra
tion ia compounded to make a balanced
ration, the less waste there will be.
In beef making, aa in other line of
manufacturing, coBt of production ia
reaucea oy ine elimination or all un
necessary waste.
Alfalfa bay alone is not a balanced
ration, theretore it ia not economy to
try making beef on alfalfa bay alone,
either feed a portion of grain or grass
bay and some grain if vou areto make
the largest gain for each pound of feed.
It costs less to keep ad animal grow
ing than to start it after it haa stoped.
Once an animal is stunted for lack of
food, no after feeding can entirely
remedy the damage. It always takes j
more feed to make a pound of gain on
an animal tbat has once been stunted
than ore that has been kept constantly
growing.
ine iooa oi maintainance is an ex
pense account, therefore it requires
much less feed to manufacture 1500
pounds of meat in twenty four months
than in forty eight months in which to
do the work.
wun young, growing animals, t. is
a well recognized fact that if a por
tion of the ration is .succulent food.
roots, suage oi green ieeo, either as
pasture grass er soiling crop it re
quires a less amount of nutriment to
make pound of grain than when the
entire ration is grain and forage.
On high-priced lands, silage . and
soiling crops are, as the rule, more
economical feeds than pasture.
Throughout the Pacific Northwest
all root crops can be gown to advantge?
Under intensive methods, by liberal use
of manure. thorough preparation of tiie
soil and good cultivation, au to 60 tons
per acre can be grown. I bave been
told that in Scotland they make good
beef nominal cost with turnips and
straw. Of course, this is done with a
Scotch steer and a Scotch feeder: both
the best of their kind.
It baa been practially demonstrated
that we can grow corn in must sec
tions of tho Pacific Northwest, ami
with tbe single exception of alfalfa,
on irrigated lands, it will produce more
feed per acre than any other plant
known.
fouder corn, alfalfa hay and mots
make a palatable, well balanced and
economical ration for young growing t
stock.
The best known way of storing todder
corn is In a silo.
Steers under two year of age
make an sversgs dally gain greater in
valne than the cost of tbe feed.
During the past season I bave visited
many yards where three and four-year
old steers are being fed to And a sin
gle lot where the daily gain was equal
to the cost of feed. The only scoure
of possible profit wss in to In-reared
value ot the original earcas or on an Im
provement of the market. Niue time
out of ten, the feeder assured me that
unless there was a raise in the price of
beef, be would loose money

continuous growth, early maturing and
early marketing. Range stock or rsnge
method applied to the modern farm
will result in loss and dissatiafactio.
Tbe combination of scientific know
ledge with practical experience and
rood judgment are necersary for a full
measure of success. To scoff at scien
tific knowledge, talanced rations, in
tenefve cnltlvaiton, well bred animals,
prsctical experience, keen observation
and good judgment, is, today at least,
unwise. Tbe combination can easilv
distsnce either factor or factors with
any one of these left out.
Tbe scientist wbe ignores tbe value
of practical experience ia quite as much
a fool a the "practicatl"man who re
fute to bring to hi aidjtbe result of
scientific research. Tb most occesa
full beef producer of tbe Twentieth
Century will be the man who has a
taste for live tock. a scientific train
ing, and "practical experience" in tbe
application of science to tbe practice
of breeding, feeding and carina; for bi
livestock, tbe growing of feeds and
soil cultivtion. He will grow a variety
of crops, feed for continuous growth
and sell before tbe animals atop growing.
PINE CREEK ROAD
IS NOSPEEDWAY
Narrowness of Grades
Doubtless Prevented
Many Accidents
Perhapa it is fortunate tbat tbe road
between Lakeview and New Pine Creek
is not sufficiently wide for two auto
mobiles to run abreast. Otherwise it
would on occasions resolve itself into a
speedway. Kor instance lest Thursday
when tbe trip down the valley was on.
Senator Weed' car was driven what
we consider at a high rate of speed,
passing seversl other auto v when tbe
rosd permitted. At least one ante
owner wbo was taken unawares did not
take kindly to tbe Senator passing bine,
for when the big Franklin whizzed by
he immediately got busy and proceed
ed to speed up himself. However, te
fore he got under way tbe Senator's
car bad passed another, and the latter
was in the sam frame of mind as tbe
first man passed, and be did not pro
pose to be caught napping again. Aa
a consequene he held the road for some
distance, and when tbe other car did
succeed in passing him the Senator's
car had such a lead that be could not
be overtaken. Had the road been suffi
ciently wide to allow the cara to pass
there would no doubt been some fast
time made to say nothing of the prob
ablities of accidents.
HURRIED GOODBYES
SAID BY VISITORS
Many Go to Klamath and
Crater Lake on Home
ward JoUrney
Many hurried goodbyes were said
Friday morning when the delegates to
the Leugue Convention started on their
return home. The greater number
went y way of Klamath Falls and
Crater Lake, intending to go out by
way of Bend. President Wm. Hsnley's
party of 16 started at 8 o'clock, and
they will spend two days looking over
tbe Klamsth country. Sunday thev go
up to Crater Lake, and bark to Harri
man Lodge at Pelican Kay, and Mon
day will make the through trip to
Rend. Other parties will spend less
time in Klamth county, and more at
Crater Lake, all reaching Bend Mon
day evening.
A tew will make the drive to The
Dalles, where they will ship their cars
to Portland by oat.
G. M. Sterling of Portland arrived
Tuesday on the auto stage from Klam
ath Fulls. He is seeking a location and
has no doubt exercised good judgment
in coming to Goosu Valley.
