Gorvallis Times. Official Payer of Beaton Coiiatr. COJCTJlIXIB, OBEOOir, JULY 23, 1904. ; THE COLLEGE. The annual report of the treas urer, presented at Wednesday's board meeting, shows that the sum of f83.899.13 was paid out at the college last year. The money went as salaries to instructors and for supplies, - and was largely spent among the business and other en terprises in Corvallis.' The total enrollment at the college last year was about 540, and a low estimate makes it certain that these students spent another $100,000 in the town making a total of. nearly $200,000 distributed through the agency of the college among Corvallis people during the year. The sum is not far short of the aggregate received from the sale of all the " surplus wheat of Benton county, marketed in Corvallis for the same period. It is one of the greatest, if not the greatest asset of the town; and at the present rate of growth is des tined to be by far the biggest re source of the place. A few . years ago the attendance was 217. : Now it approaches 600. ; What , is not possible for it to be' in a few years more? Then what will be. the sum that will be annually distributed by the institution ? . How important it is for all Corvallis to foster, encour age, aid; and by every - word and act, to help safeguard the Oregon Agricultural College. ; WEDNESDAY EVENING.
