WINTER SHORT COURSE GETS STUDENT POSITION The practical value of the winter short course at the Oregon Agricul tural College Is attested In a letter Just received by Dean A.

This year the course on apple growing will Include all phases of apple culture, from the choonlng of the site, drainage of the ground, Irri gation methods, fertilization, plant ing, buddlng'and grafting and vari ous methods of spraying to control pests, the harvesting of the crop and packing and marketing.
