Morton thinks thirty-six years' resilience In Oregon qualifica tion enough to go to the U. S. sen ate. This being so, my thirty-six years' residence In the state should qualify me for county commissioner. Besides this, I know I could please the people, as I lelleve In eight hours work with ten hours tiny. As the oflice Is a per diem job I would be on It all the time. I believe In good roads nnd oil new work to start In front of every man's property; a new court house, con structed of rock from the lava In-ds This will necessitate the fixing of the road from U limns south for a couple of miles to haul It over. "Experts" know It takes different kinds of rock for roads ami buildings, so a great expense can be saved by the teams hauling road material back from the lower valley to fix the roads near the lava beds. I would suggest two cupolas for the court house, In each a silver cur few bell to le hung. These would look pretty and give tone to the building. 1 promise not to succeed myself for more than three terms, unless I change my mind, nor to appoint my successor. If you should see me talking to Mr. Early I wish to give notice right now there Is no understanding lie tween us to divide the county and thereby reduce taxation. Sorry I haven't a suitable photo' to enclose to fill space over this. Yours for low taxes and liberal im provements; they go together!?). W. II. M Aitsii w.i..

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallls. Free bacteria for the raising of leguminous crops, such as alfalfa. peas, beans, and clovers, will be fur nished to the farmers of Oregon upon request by the depart uient of bacte riology at the Oregon Agricultural College. The experiment station ex perts have been luy preparing this material for the Inoculation of soil for some time, ami will send full di rections for Its use with each culture. Those desiring the material should send their requests at least two weeks In advance of the time they wish to use It, stating w hat legumi nous crops t hey desire to raise, and how much land they Intend to plant. Any one who has examined the roots of a thrifty plant of this sort of crop knows that there are found on the roots small lumps, known as nodules. Scientific study has shown these to Ik caused by bacteria Infect ing the roots, and that unless these are present, a good stand will not be obtained, showing that the bacteria are necessary to the full growth of the plant. If the soli does not con tain the bacteria, a good catch of the crop may not be expected. I!y using these cultures the proper bac teria may be Introduced Into the soli.
