The two days' sessions will be In terspersed with musical numbers and other features of entertainment and a large attendance is expected, as this should be made the most important development meeting ever held in Southern Oregon.

Pat-sengers must procure receipts from ticket agents upon pur chasing their tickets, and when these are signed by the secretary of the convention they will be entitled to return tickets nt one-third fare. Judge Scott is now holding good roads meetings in eastern Oregon and may not be able to be present on this occasion, but plenty of other good speakers will be on hand and help boost for Southern Oregon.

The Increase in this de partment this year Is more than 100 per cent over that of last year, the highest point reached up to that time. A large per cent of these stu dents came to this department this year as a direct result of the edu cational and demoustratlonal work done with the trains sent out to show the farmers and fruit growers what is being done by the experiment sta tion. Professor W. S. Thornber. head of the department of horticulture, says: "We have 35 students lu the fresh man class this year, compared with 17 last year, 11 two years ago and 7 three years ago. Many of these stu dents are sous of farmers and fruit growers who expect to make fruit growing a business after they leave school. Everything points to an awakening to the importance of more scientific work in the growing of fruit and points to better orchards and larger profits and better fruit as the result of this awakening." Professor Calkins, instructor in English In the college last year, hns returned to the school and Is taking a course In horticulture-and expects to locate in the northwest and en gage In fruit growing after he leaves the school. The fine exhibits of fruit shown at the fairs now being held in the Inland Empire are having a stimulating effect on fruit growing. Rural Spirit. l44"s5",J' FRUIT TREES.

The charge in the third Indictment is assault and battery and the person accused 1b Frank Lundy, former marshal of tho town of Yoncalla. The private prosecutor Is Richard Maben, who alleges that Lundy committed the offense on July 27, last. Lundy was arraigned in court this morning and given until 9 o'clock tomorrow morn ing to plead.

County Defendant. The ense of Leslie Lilly against Douglas county Is on trial before a jury this afternoon. Lilly is appeal ing from an order of the county cuurt awarding him $400 damugce for Hie location of a proposed new county road along tho bonk of the North Unipqun Klver and through hit premises nt Glide. Lilly claims that to cut him off from the river would decrease tho value of his property one-half, and that his farm Is worth ttj, 000. He also declared that the establishment of the proposed road would force him to go to the expense of building a private road In order to hnvo a convenient outlet .from his nremises. Tho contention of the county Is that Lilly has overestimat ed the value of his farm at least 40 per cent: that with very little ex pense he could provide waterways an a substitute tor the river mat the proposed new road would great- v enhance the value of his place ana finally, that tho damages allowed by the county Is really more than he If entitled to.
