Cbaracter is Bcinj AccompIisIiGiI. Owing to the fact that the-appropriation for the Eastern Oregon Experiment sta tion, at our last legislature, fell into the hands of the Referendum; and the pass ing of the Carter bill which came into .rt May 1 9. 1 90S, providing that here after all moneys received . from uie in come of rents of state property and from the sale or disposition of surplus products of all state institutions, must be deposited in the state treasury, the Eastern Ore,Tn Experiment Station was placed in a very critical condition financially. And all that prevented it from closing its doors, similar to that of our various normal schools, was the business manner in which the Board of Regents financed the station from the start. Realizing that the station was de pendent upon the state for" maintenance, and fearing that such conditions which now exist, might come to pass; they wise ly deposited in the First National Bank, all moneys received from the sale of sur plus products and rents of Various por tions of the station, not used for experi mental purposes. The Station has been drawing on this bank deposit since Octo ber 1904, at whiciLtime the last available appropriation was exhausted. The re maining deposit was not sufficient to con tinue the work as usual at-the Station, so it was decided to discontinue experiments with stock feeding and breeding, rent all farming land, and throw the entire effort tt ward experiments with grains, grasses and forage crops. For conducting these experiments 120 acres were reserved. While the station is yet young, the work done has been highly satisfactory. Many new grasses have been introduced with marked success. Among those most prominent are Oregon Bromus, Oregon Evergreen, Reed Fescue and Festuca Hy brid. In the experimental plat of grasses there are 68 varieties; since these-are grown side by side under the ' same con ditions, the various' characteristics and manners of growth developed in the diff erent individuals make an intensely inter- LIFE SENTENCE Colfax, Wa6h., Jan. 19.

Experiments with Australian Salt Aush and Bermuda-grass were very successful last season, and much hope is entertained that they will prove to be of great value for our poorest alkali soils. ' . Recognizing the importance of range ..-.it!:-;, Nation will endeavor to take up co-operative experiments in var ious sections of Eastern Oregon with grasses suitable for this purpose. Believing the sugar beet industry to be of great importance In this section, much attention is given to this line of work, and the results already obtained are exceed ingly encouraging. The Station has dem onstrated without question, that high grade sugar beet seed can be produced at home, conditions being very favorable here for this industry. ' Extensive experiments in potato culture are being carried on; arrangements ''have been made for a test of 45 varieties the coming season. Much interesting work has been done regarding ' the size and treatment of the seed potato.. Keeping in mind the all important grain industry, the Station has at present 62 fall varieties growing in plats of equal size: In order to make a practical variety test, each sample was sown in rows six inches apart, at the rate of a bushel and a peck per acre. Each plat will be harvest ed and weighed separatively; interesting and important results are expected. Many varieties of spring grain will also be test ed in a like manner. A variety of Mac aroni wheat introduced from North Dako ta last year did remarkably well, but like many of our most promising wheats, it is bearded; realizing that this is a serious objection, the Station ' has endeavored, through selection tad careful work, to produce these varieties without beards. The results so far have been more than were expected, for in many varieties the beards have been decidedly diminished, and in a few, entirely eliminated. Robert Withycombb, Union, Ore..
