When Jenny Rode To Mill
With Me.
When Jenny rode to mill with me,
The daieiee bared their boeome.
The »pring wiude rumpled every tree
And alined a storm of bloMorn».
The squirrels »camp«red on the hedge,
Tho cow« were in the clover.
The lilies rimmed the river's edge,
And duaky doves flow over.
The white road seemed to welcome us,
By shaken dewdrops dented,
The proves with sung were trem'ilous,
By ion ley violets scented.
The med wind seemed to envv all
The curls lien eat h her botluet,
And let the dew dashed blossom« fall
In twinkling showers on it.
liow well the way old Milton knew
In all the springtime weather,
Ilia back was broad enough for two.
And so-- we rode together!
DAYTON, OREGON
Oregon’s Birth Rate Increasing
The increase In the numbar of births
in tba Axle vl Uragun during tbe year
1924 is encouraging and it is hoped that
it will again become fesbionabla to have
good sited families. Tbe present con­
ditions require that families having
children shall average better than three
in order to maintain at least a station­
ary population.
A study of tbe birth
rate shows tbnt the city rate is greater
than that of tbe country, in 1923 there
were 14,992’ births In Oregon while in
1924 there were 15,509 according to the
reports of tbe United States Census
Bureau. The rata has increased from
