To 'Visit a zJiCodern ‘Printing Plant
□□□□□□□□
Il
ANY have asked for the privilege of visiting The Sentinel’s printing plant,
/l/y While The Sentinel is pleased to have residents of the community take this
interest in what it is attempting to do for Cottage Grove, to have any
large number of visitors come at odd times would prove too expensive and in order
to accommodate the greatest possible number with the least possible interference with
the operation of the plant, an “open house” is announced for next
Saturday ^Afternoon
(FROM 2 TO 4)
During these hours the plant will be open to inspection by the public generally,
If any considerable number are unable to come during the afternoon and will inakd
the request, the “open house” will be continued during Saturday evening.
Pupils of the high school will visit the plant at 2:30 Friday afternoon, Pupils of
other high schools may visit the plant at the same time.
Cottage Grove has what competent authority has stated to be the best equipped
printing plant in a city of its size on the coast and The Sentinel is pleased to give
the people of the community the opportunity to view it and familiarize themselves
with some of the details of the printing business, which is essentially different from
any other industry of this section.
The Sentinel has equipped the kind of plant which it now has because it believes
the city is on the eve of a business expansion sueh as it has never before known.
The Sentinel believes in giving to the city in fullest measure the service to which a
city of Cottage Grove’s size is entitled.
The Sentinel believes that the brinting business should be kept at home—and it
believes the best way to keep it at home is to be able to meet competition upon a
competitive basis—competitive upon the basis of price, of course, but competitive
also in the quality of the work produced by the Hqme Print Shop.

Cottage Grove Turns Out for
Lincoln Film.
Cottage Grove showed its appre
ciation of such films as “Abraham
Lincoln’’ by filling the Arcade
theater for the two nights that it
was shown here, Thursday and
Friday. There was a large attun-l
ance also at the Friday afternoon
matinee. It is said that in Route
cities this film did not go over
well, but Cottage Grove demon
j stratoed its approval of educational
films of high character. Members
of tho G. A. R. and of the W. R. C.
were invited guests.
Tho life of tho great emanci
pator from boyhood until his death
by tho assassin’s bullet is graphic
ally illustrated in this film. It

Tho 1925

program of O. S.
Fletcher, , Lane county agricultural
agent, was given out by that of-
ficial in an address before tho
Lane County Bankers’ association
in Eugene last week.
Mr. Fletcher went into projects
which ho hopes to see realized this
year and told how he expected
these problems to be carried
through through the cooperative
work and support of various farm
organizations, such as the granges
and farmers’ union locals, tho
Holstein and Jersey cattle clubs
and others. He stressed the value
of organization and made it plain
that he believed more could be ac
complished by work of organiza
tions than through the efforts of
any one man. Particularly will tho
Lane county agricultural council,
composed of representatives of tho
grange nad farmers’ union, bo
called upon for service, he said.
Speaking to tho bankers the
county agent told them they had
a big and most important part in
tho program, that of financing the
various projocts. Civic organiza
tions anil others interested in tho
development of Lane's agricultural
resources will bo called upon to
assist.
The major projects for tho year
ho listed as follows: Farm crops,
dairying, horticultural work, gon-
oral livestock, poultry, rodent con-
trol and miscellaneous.
His first topic, that of farm
crops, contained throe main sub
divisions: Alfalfa demonstrations,
trials of copper carbonate to con
trol wheat smut, and seed certifi
cation. His plans for alfalfa dem
onstrations were gone into in de
tail. Ho reaffirmed his hope to
make wheat smut a negligible quan
tity in Lane county through use of
copper carbonate.
Seed certification, ho said, would
bo based upon a plan of wheat
inspection while the grain was still
growing and another after it had
been threshed. Inspections will be
made, he said, only upon request
of wheat growers who believe they
have extra fino grain on their land,
grain that would be eagerly sought
by others for seed. Certification
would bo on one crop only and
inspections would havo to bo mnde
each year.
The county agent urged tho or
ganization of strong and numerous
cow testing associations to wood
out the -“border line” animals,
urged the importation of purebred
sires to build up herds and an-
nounced plans for a series of feed
ing and management schools to bo
conducted by experts.
Turning to the horticultural work,
Mr. Fletcher laid forth schemes to
