COCXTY OFFICIAL PAPF.Il Member National Editorial Asso ciatin and Oregcn Suto Editorial Association. 81CVESS J. Opden Armour says: "Almost everyone you meet 1ms something lm portunt to teach you, tell you, or show you, if you know how to ask intelligent questions, and it you are genuinely. Interested In learning. Then, he must be a THINKER and must think hard. Many people never put a load on their brains, aud their brains, like an unattached lo comotive, always run "light. Un. less a man revolves In his mind what he learns and observe, he never gets any' use from it. He must make de ductions. "Finally he must be i DOER. Sotae people are long on thinking but short on doing. They are the dreamers. But Experience Is, aftr all, tne great est of all teachers. When you have the courage to tackle the difficult things which test your ability, then you are down to the business of, growing In ail its fine points. The bumps you will get, the dis couragements you win 'encounter. and even the mistakes you will make in being zealous In your doings, will be among the best parte of ynur eo- ucatlon. Success and rewards always come to the person who continues to grow but the greatest reward consists in having found the secret that makes life continuously interesting." The Fourth is almost here and with it comes the big celebration The visitors who will come to St Helens expect big things of St. Helens and St. Helens must not disappoint them. Portland did wonders for the Shrine visitors and they left with a mighty good Impression of Portland. St. Helens can show the same hos pitality and our visitors will leave with equally as good tn Impression, even though our celebration is on a smaller Bcale. This, however, does not and should not make bounds for our hospitality and cordial treatment of our visitors.

The admin istration's grammar department Is the only one tint has not broker down; it has always woiked overtime. OREGON ROAD INFORMATION' Compiled by U. S. Forest Servico.

SOME GOOD FARM RKMJ.VOKRS Seasonal HuKKentkins on Thing!) Often Overlooked, by State College. Poultry: Take the rooster away from the summer laying flock. He Is no help to heavy or continued laying, but Is a great bother. The hens will lay at least as well without him, and the eggs will keep longer, either packed or marketed fresh. Dairy: Green feed is essential to heavy protracted, economical milk flow, and the Bilo Is essential to a year-round green feed supply at min imum cost. A big silo boom is on In many parts of Oregon, aud progres sive successful farmers are building silos. Poultry: Green feed for laying hens and little chicks is a dally need. If cut into short bits less Is wasted Any green such as grass, lawn clip pings, garden remnants, and palatable weeds, Is good. Feed on clean ground or on boards. Club Work: Calf club member in the Smith river district of 'Douglas county have bought seven registered Jersey heifer calves, which they will put on official test. They will use the calves In he calf-raising project. The boys were assisted financially by the Reedsport National Bank, which took personal notes for three years. The college dairy specialists helped them pick their Jerseys. Sous: First irrigation of potatoes should be made when the plants be gin to bloom. This allows them time to take deep root. Darkening oi the leaves Is an Indication that wa ter Is needed. In five educational elements lu volved in a comparative'study recent ly made, Oregon ranks second umong all .the states of the union, accord ing to a report received at the office of J. A. Churchill, state superlnten-, dent of schools, from the Russell Sage Foundation. The financial rank of Oregon schools, however, cuts down Hit state's rank, since In that respect it stands only In 26th place, and lirliiKS the general rank of the Btate down to 19th place. By the adoption of the 2 mill tux measure for the, support of elemen tary schools, Mr Churchill believe Impi'ovoment will be so great that on the lamo basis or ranking Oregon will be almost in first place Th report shows that In the 28 year from 1890 to 1918 Oregon gullied 10 places in relative standing rmortg the states. In determining the standing of the stntes, 10 education factors were used. Oregon's figures for 1918 fol low: 1. Per cent of children of school age attending. 8. 2. Days attended by erc.li child of school age, 2. 3. Days schools ware kept open. 5. 4. Proportion of children In high school, 11. ' 5. Per cent of boys to girls in high school, 24. 6.
