And Newt Letters from About the County
MOLALLA
WlntBr weathor prevailed for one
ween with snow three inches deep
and the meroury down to 10 degrees
above zero one night only. At many
favored localities it was several de
grees warmer than that. With the
regular Webfoot Chinook now in
sight everybody is beginning to feel
better already.
Why, yes, Molalla has redeemed it
self by voting a three-mill special
road tax. Don't know whether
Meadowbrook would be for "waking
up" or merely dozing along. How
ever, things do not look very bright
for that steel bridge this year.
Carry Herman has sold his farm to
Mr. Edgemond for 6,000. Carry con
templates entering the mercantile
business at this place.
Mr. Barney Fredrich, who recently
got boosed on the jaw by a cow, is
getting along O. E.
Mr. Lamb, who rnoe.it ly underwent
an operation for appendioitis at En
gene, is home again feeling fine, and
Has a good word for the oity of Eu
gene in more ways than one.
Clyde Kngle has taken up his posi
tion in the store again looking more
like himself every day.
Mrs. Anna Clifford has consented to
take charge of the Mutual Telephone
oentral station for another year. Miss
Sailer, onr very efficient operator,
has also consented to remain at the
switch, so the uniform good service
will be assured for 1911.
Now that we are on the verge of a
systematio road improvement, it may
be reasonable to hope to see some of
our steep grades rednoed by "cutting
oat" the worst hills instead of trying
to cot them down.

PARKPLAOE HIUH SCHOOL
The high sohool basket ball team
met the Olaokamas on Tuesday, Jan.
10, at Clackamas. It was an ezoiting
game and well contested, although
the Parkplace boys weakened toward
the last. The boys showed muoh bet
ter form than in the previous game,
and although losing the match to
Clackamas by a score of 21 to 41, they
felt much encouraged by the showing
they made. The linenp was as fol
lows: Forwards Parkplace, H.

Saturday evening, Jan, 14, Professor
Horner ef the Oregon Agricutural

principal in the school here, gave us
his noted stureopticon lecture "From

hall, the profits going to buy appa
ratus for the high school. He took us
on a delightful trip, starting from
Parkplace, to some of the "oradleB of
civilization" in the Old World, tak
ing brief stops on the way at various
places of Interest, Bunh as Westminster
Abbey, and the leaning tower of Pisa,
and llnally arriving at Rome. There
he showed us the old Roman forum,
the catacombs of Rome and many
other plaoes of religious and historical
interest. Professor Horner is a pleas
iug and instructive speaker and we
hope this visit will not be his last.
All felt that they had spent a profit
able and enjoyable evening.
MEADOWBROOK
The cold wave that has been here
caused everything and everybody to
tighten up, even the money "barons."
If this had stayed for any length of
time we oould not have blamed any
one for being a tightwad.
Mr. Harmon of Jennie Station was
a visitor at Gresham the fore part of
the week.
The three new houses being built by
Mr. Jones and son for the Lawrences
are rapidly nnaring completion under
the able management of these two
contractors.
From our little red house on the
hill we can see one or two smokes
now and then, but have not learned
the names of the occupants.
Some time ago I had occasion to be
sitting near two youths of tender age
on an internrban street oar, and part
of their conversation readied my ear.
They were diligently engaged in tell
ing the vissicitudes that oanie to them
iidjtlieir school life, viz,, the so ealled
incompatibility of the teachers and
wrong method of instruction. It
brought back to me recolleotions of
my own school days, when every
thing to be attained inourred such
hardship upon the scholar who comes
to your sohool unsophisticated, but
the oity gentry proceed to dub him
"green" and make him the uuwit
ing butt of all their jokes. Inciden
tally they succeed to suoh an extent
that the pupil wishes himself any
where but in school. But apropos of
these two youug men. They, like a
great many others, thought they were
passing through the hardest and most
trying time of their lives. So much
for tlioir thoughts. They find after
leaving sohool and the sterner prob
lems face them that their schooldays
were nothing compared to having the
responsibility of making their own
way in this world. How the illusions
and ideals fade away when we are
pushed into the world with the ad
monition to "Go west, young man,
so west" and make yonr way in this
fickle and complex world. The years
that buty the recollections of our
sohool days in the ashes of the past
reveal oue great truth to us, that the
happiest and most enjoyable period of
our wholo lives were the years spent
in Bohool, whether it bo grammar
school or university. The reoolleo
tion is only made more lasting against
that groat eraser ot events called
time.
WhoD we hear the youuger genera
tion recounting the trials and troubles
that como to them in tleir school
days, we ought to fool sorry for some
of them when we know what faces
them. When sohool days are past
realities of the most pronounced type
await them, beyond the reaoli of the
bell or the solicitude and kindly help
of both ptincipal and teachers. While
we are in sohool the glamour of the
world is upon us, but when we are
through the glamour is lost in the
struggle for ascendency.
If we could only realize that the
time spent iu the schoolroom is not
only the happiest aud most beneiloial
but the best there is in life, we could
go through that period of onr exis
tence with real unalloyed pleasure
and happiness instead of unmitigated
paiti to ourselves aud instructors.
Here's to the schooldays of the past.
Would. that they were here once more.
And here's to the young men of our
oountry. May they cousider these
days the best there is in life.

half the field to turn around iu. The
work of trimming up its rough Job of
work would cost more than to do the
whole thing with horses. Reasoning
stubbornly In this vein, some farmers
still argue to themselves that the four
horse gang plow is too big for them
to use. Holding close to their mind's
eye the thought of the slow turning
and the dog eared corners, the outside
strip and the dead furrows to be fin

themselves to the machine's accom
plishments. Terhaps an hour may be

Good Land Going to Waste.
Kansas farmers are wnstlng hun
dreds of thousands of dollars' worth
of good land, according to J. B. Koontz,
general freight agent of the Santa Fe.
Along the line of his road, Mr. Koontz
says, there are 25,000 acres of land
covered with useless straw stacks.
Mr. Koontz figures that if the ground
occupied by the straw was sown to
wheat every year the yield on a fif
teen bushel average would be 375,000
bushels. At 00 cents a bushel the
crop from the stock area alone would
bring $337,500.
Humus is a necessary element of
fertile soil. The best way to put
it into the soil is to follow the sys
tem of crop rotation which shall in
clude clover or alfalfa. In addition
to this all the stable manure should
he put back on to the soil and a lib
eral supply of straw should be used
in bedding, to save the liquid
manure.
Dairy Doings.
While bran can be used with a de
cided advantage In making tip the ra
tions of the dairy cows, it should not
be used to excess, as It will make the
cream hard to churn, while the butter
will be pale rather than a golden yel
low. The purchaser of a bull should select
an animal that is a good individual
and whose dam and grandam on bis
sire's side have good butter fat rec
ords. His sire must, of course, show
the characteristics of the good dairy
type.
Many of the Maine fanners who
gave up cows and went into potato
growing a few years ago are coming
back to cow keeping.
A testing outfit does not cost much,
and it pays dividends. A cow that Is
merely bonrfllug will cat ns much as
one producing a profit, and the only
way to distinguish between the two is
through the use of the Babcock test
and the scales.
A farmer who has been traveling in
Switzerland nnd Germany noticed that
cows were used quite commonly for
drawing loads or plowing on the little
farms of those countries. He found
that the cows could be worked to a
moderate extent without much reduc
ing their milk yield, and be suggests
that the idea might be practical for
small farnws in other countries.
The rule for feeding graiu In the
University of Wisconsin experiment
station dairy herd Is to give as many
pounds of grain as the cow produces
pounds of butter fat per week
Underfeeding is as wasteful s over
feeding promptly

SURVEY OF GRANGE FIELD.
Interesting Facta Gathered From Re
ports of State Masters.
The reports made by stute masters
Indicate fairly well the status of the
work in the grunge states. California
reports conditions as promising, with
Interest Increasing, and, anticipating
the holding of the Panama exposition
at San Francisco In 1915, California will
Invite the notional grange to meet
there at that time. In Colorado ten
new granges have been organized, aud
great interest has been manifested
there In the grnnge field days. In
Iowa twelve new granges have been
organized. In Kansas there are 7,000
members. Owing to the failure of
several farmers' organizations in the
past it has made grange organization
more difficult. One of the largest co
operative grange enterprises is nt
Olathe, Kan., which Is prosperous
enough to declare a semiannual divi
dend of more than 15 per cent. Idaho
reports gains nil along the line and co
operative buying as notably success
ful. In Connecticut co-operative buy
ing has saved the grange members
from 5 to 7 per cent on their pur
chases, and the membership has lu
creased nearly 1,700 during the past
year.
In Massachusetts eleven new granges
have been organized during the past
year, and there are now 240 in this
state, with 27,000 members. Two dis
tinct objects are before the Bay State
grangers first, a vigorous effort to
promote a larger interest In agricul
ture and, second, an awakening to the
responsibilities for community leader
ship. The grange has co-opernted
loyally with the State Agricultural so
ciety and farmers' institutes. In New

Jersey there are 112 subordinate
granges, with about 18,000 members.
In New York the grange work Is In
fine condition. The membership now
Is almost 100,000 In something like 750
granges. The grange co-operates hearti
ly with the State Agricultural society
and with Cornell Agricultural college
and the farmers' institutes. The
grange Is endeavoring to secure the
Introduction of the study of agricul
ture in high schools. Co-operative
buying and selling run into the large
thousands of dollars. Ohio reports
forty-seven new and reorganized
granges during the past year, with
4,800 new members. There nre nearly
40,000 members In that state, and the
grange has $28,000 In the treasury.
Grange farm property is practically
all insured in grange companies.
In Rhode Island there nre thirty
five granges in thirty-two townships,
and the Order is in a prosperous con
dition. Washington state reports tho
organization of 115 new granges the
past year, which is more than one
quarter of the total number organized
In twenty-eight states. There is great
activity in co-operative buying and
selling. In West Virginia sixteen
granges have been organized the past
year, and the Order Is holdlug Its own
In the face of much difficulty. In Wis
consin and Minnesota the Order is
weak. Missouri, which at one time
many years ago had 1,200 granges,
reports a comparatively small num
ber of granges at the present time, but
there is a gradual growth in member
ship. In Oregon twenty-four new
granges were organized last year, and
the state has 9,000 members. Penn
sylvania reports show that this state
is third in organization work the past
year, only surpassed by Washington
nnd Michigan; The legislative com
mittee of the state grange is looked
upon as a real power In legislation.
Efforts are concentrated on two great
reforms viz, equalization of taxation
and the initiative and referendum. In
struction in agriculture in the public
schools has become an accomplished
fact, nnd a grange educational achieve
ment is found in the township high
schools that now dot the state.
