Which accounts for widespread rage over an inch of new snow. ; . Senator Strayer, of Baker county, in his plea before the ways and means committee, said that the Eastern Oregon Stock Show was not a county fair but a district fair, there fore more deservinjr of state consideration. Correct. Jt is more than that. It is the stock show of the greatest stock t raising area in the state, a vital influence for good on a vital industry. Its benefits are state-wide because the livestock business is state-wide. Letters From La Grande Transferred Directly to Waiting Planes Hoping to stimulate the use of airiiiuil so that this part of thi statu wJll not lost the pouch ser. vice It now enjoys, K. K.

It was to the effect that La Grande was "forced", to use well water for domestic and business purposes. True, but it failed to convey the informa tion that our well water is from municipal wells, artesian water coming from hundreds of feet under the ground and testing 100 per cent pure. It failed to say that those wells have a daily flow of three million gallons, sufficient to sup- durin u inS and tedious session ply the city even in summer with more than it can consume ,-M" ufl"ou- . ... . . ... .. . .. .

Anintinriations. now and in the future, enactment of both biiia would c re us well as legislative policy in education, should be deter mined by questions of enrollment, of demand for the differ ent types of courses offered, of existing facilities for meet ing existing enrollments and existing demands. . During the last twenty years Oregon has been marked more for her agricultural and technical development than ior anything else. It has Itoeu only natural that the demands of a majority of its young people seeking higher education should be for the courses available at an agricultural and technical school. Hut the last few years has seen a change in that demand which has brought the cultural and profes sional courses available in the university to the lure. The rather evenly balanced enrollments of today indicate this more normal trend. Student bodies in both schools and in the state normal schools have increased. SupiHirt for each institiitt.m should be scheduled accordingly. Facilities need enlaiging in every case and the rapid increase at the university the last few years marks it as especially deserving while the readjustment is taking place. There is no cause for favoritism, no reason for controversy. Certain facts exist mid xtint plainly to the policy the legislature should follow. A broad view ami a fine ' spirit of co-operation is essential. Only in that way tan the tstate tenefit most from its entire educational activities. TRY W. K. GILBERT CO.
