In case of change of adiirea please notify j cided shortage in moisture already

to point to a wet year, the weather
for the past few days especially so.
With the present price of grain
fifty per cent above the previous
world record, and some one-third
of the wheat fields of the earth
devastated, it seems that the farm
ers can make no mistake in plant
ing spring wheat.
Of the various varieties, the
Marquis wheat which was intro
duced by F. S. Towner is perhaps
the best. It showed a yield of al
most twice as much per acre as
other spring kinds on Mr. Town;r's
place the past two years, and was
adjudged the best wheat in compe
tition with all other kinds at the
New York land show held three
years ago- At this event the ex
hibitor took a $10,000 prize with
wheat grown in Canada, and a
small amount of this original prize
wheat was secured for Mr. Towner
by Prof. Shaw of the Hill railways.
A test given by Mr. Carlson of
the Prineville Flouring Mills proves
the Marquis to be the best wheat
ever brought into the local mill,
leading Blue Stem, Turkey Red and
all other favorites.
fcow spring wheat and sow as
soon as possible, and sow Marquis
if it can be had. Keep enough
hogs to work over the stubble
fields after the wheat is cut, and
you can make no mistake-

, "The most constructive piece of
educational legislation enacted for a
number of years is that contained
in Senate bill 64, by Senator Per
kins, providing for a high school
tuition fund. Under the provisions
of this bill every boy and girl in the
state may obtain a four-year high
school education free of any tuition
charges," said State Superintendent
of Public Instruction Churchill.
"Under the provisions of Senate
bill 64, a special tax shall be levied
in every county once a year upon
all the taxable property in the
county, not situated in any high
school district, to produce a county
high school tuition fund sufficient
to take care of all pupils who at
tend high schools outside their resi
dent districts!
"The bill does not affect those
counties now maintaining a county
high school, or those counties in
which the county high school fund
law now is in operation. Every
high : schael receiving pupils from
other districts must file a report
with the county school superin
tendent once a year, showing the
actual cost of educating each high
school pupil attending such school.
The per capita cost shall be de
termined by dividing the total
amount expended by the high
school district for maintaining high
school during the school year, by
the average daily attendance of
pupils enrolled by the high school
of the district for the same year.
"Another bill of interest to the
school teachers of Oregon is the
Moserjbill, providing that women
teachers shall receive for like ser
vices pay equal to that of men
ieachers. !
"By House bill 97, two slight
changes were made in the Union
High School law by Mr. Dillard.
Hereafter it will require a majority
of districts voting to establish a
union as well as a majority of those
voting in order to establish a union
high school district.
"Senate Bill 11, by Mr. Dimick,
provided in the original bill that
the county supervisory law should
be repealed. The friends of the
supervisory law made such a show
ing that Senator Dimick consented
to withdraw his bill and amend it
so as to make it optional in each
county. The optional bill was
agreed upon by Senator Dimick
and the senators who were sup
porting the supervisory Jlaw. It
provides that the law stand as it
now is, but that in any county the
school directors may, by a majority
petition signed by a majority of the
school directory of the county, set
aside the law for their particular
county."
Free Corn for Our Farmers
Commencing March 1, seven tons
of acclimated seed corn will be dis
tributed among farmers in the
territory served by the O.-W. R. &
N. railroad by C. L. Smith, the
company's farmer. It is the inten
tion to see that each farmer re-
ceives enough seed to plant at least
two acres, which will enblejhim to
prove to his own satisfaction that it
can be made a success. The high
price of wheat making impossible
tne use of that grain for stock feed
a greater acreage of corn will be
planted next spring than ever be
fore and special efforts will be
made to preserve the fodder to
take the place of hay in feeding
cattle.
