The Information has reached the college to the effect that several state organizations are preparing bills which carry appropriations to meet the expenses of the very great extension of this line of work. If these appropriations are car ried there will be more farmers' In stitute work, more lectures put into the field, more demonstration trains run, a great increase la the number of Itinerant schools, a broader cir culation of bulletins, circulars and other publications and a more gen eral use of personal correspondence in dealing with the ' various prob lems. Schools of agriculture, com merce, domestic science and art and mechanics will be held in the var ious' towns and cities of the Btate to give Instruction to the people of these localities. Farmers will be taught how to farm scientifically and farmers wives will be able to learn the best scientific method of house keeping without leaving their home communities.

In an address to the Short Course students, President H. J.

He alto staMd that the demands upon tie state college from the people of the state tor help in the solution of their agricultural and industrial problems were constantly increasing aid lad already reached the point where the facilities of the college wtb eitlrely inadequate for the work. ' Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vall'ls, Jan. ll. Professor" H. M. Parks,1 of the Mining Engineering Department of the Oregon Agricul tural College expresses as his opin ion after an 'exhaustive survey of the Willamette Valley during tie past summer, that this valley is probably better supplied with excellent road building nratxA-lal'than' any other im portant agricultural district of equal area in the country.' All of the re sults of Prof. Parka' investigations are to be given out this week in a bulletin entitled "Road Materials in the Willamette Vajley," published under the auspices of the Mining Engineer Department of this institu tion. The bulletin Is replete with valuable information regarding the location, quality and adaptability of road making rock throughout the seotion which was investigated. Mt, Angel, Or, Jan. 14. The town of Alt, Angel hae joined the forces of progressive saloon legislation, and as a result last Sunday experienced the first "dry" Sunday in Its history, while one saloon is out of bus'ness, and car penters are now .engaged on doing considerable remodeling on the rest. Open glass windows, no partition, no side rooms, a clear, unobstructed view from the street to the rear of the saloon, and finally no Sunday openings; these are some of tWei pro visions incorporated in an ordinance passed by the city council as their first act In their regular session of the new year, January 3. Besides, the saloon license-was raised from $500 to $600 per year, bonds of $500 pro vided for, for all saloon keepers, and thJO number of saloons In the city limited to three, until the town shsJl have reached' 1500) population. Four saloons were doing business at the passage of the ordinance. Mil one has since closed its doors. As the town has at present abont 850 inhabitants It Will probably be some years before four saloons will again, be doing busi ness. The ordinance went into effect lm-t medtaXely upon Its passage, and, aa a result, the "lid" was on in Mt, Angel last Sunday for the first time in its history.

The Salem Fruit Union held Its second annual stockholders' meeting Saturday at the packing plant, corner of High and Trade streets, and it was well attended. The union is In splen did shape and the outlook for the year 1911 is flattering. A dividend of eight per cent on all paid up stock was declared, and after this is paid, there will remain in the treasury a snug sum for a working capital. The corporation is less than two years old, but is in fine shape with a good plant, Its building alone costing $11,000. The report of the manager, Charles L. Dick, shows that 50 cars of fresh fruit and 40 of dried fruits were shipped during the year 1910. Wm. S. Walter and C. O. Constable were elected directors for three years each.

That the aerrlenl tural college Till be placed in a po itkm to carry instructions in agri culture, domestic science and art, tommenie and mechanical engineer tog to the people of the state Instead oi compelling the people to come to It, seems now to be very probable. Wm. E. Purdy and Johvi Murray, of the Trl-County Push Club, at Butteville, were In the city today, pushing hard for the bridge across the Willamette river- at that point. They had the endorsement of most of the business men of Newberg before the latter town started in to get a bridge at that point. After writhing in agony for more than three days on the floor of a lone ly farmhouse near Hall's Ferry nine miles from here, with kls only com' pandon a helpless, ag4 blind man, William Simmons died Saturday, a few hours after being discovered and before medical aid could reach him, Simmons was employed by Thomas Jory, guardian of William Budd, to watch after Budd's needs. Budd Is 80 years old, can scarcely walk and Is blind. When discovered Simmons was writhing in convulsions on the floor and had no doubt been there three days. Simmons' brother-in-law, William Needham, and Dr. F.

Portland, Or, Jan. 16. Train dis patchers employed on all Northwest ern railroads today presented de mands for a salary increase ot $25 per month. Trainmasters also made a demand for a substantial addition to the remuneration they now re ceive. - The dispatchers based their de mand on the grounds that their work has practically doubled reckintly ow ing to the rapid growth .of traffic, while the salaries have practically re mained stationary. As further reason they declaie that trainmen employed la lesser ' capacities receive higher pay. The average salary of dispatch ers In the West is 140. If thie demands, are not acted on before June, the dispatchers say they will organize a labor union, and pre sent their demands aa a union. The dispatches gave notice of their intentions a few days ago.
