The Observer received yesterday a
copy of the seventeenth annual report of
the Oregon Agricultural College for the
year ending June 50th. 1 90S. It give
the number of student attending that
year at 680. being the largest number
jver reported. The total disbursements
for the year was $74,265.66;' being

receipts tha item "state interest $10,

what that item means but to the average

who paid that sum into the college fund
