and another dredge Is to be built. With
these dredges at work it is expected
that a channel of IS feat will fee
dredged to a mil above Marshfield by
another year.
"What do you think of the future
possibilities of Coos Bay as a portr
th Msjor was aakd aa he stepped
from th gangplank of th Breakwater
yesterday afternoon.
"It's a good place, but It needs a
railroad," ha replied. -When a rail
road is built Into Cooa Bay it will ba
an Important -seaport. It has many
commercial advantages, and I was very
much pleased with what I saw there."
"Are you going to make any recom
mendations favoring Cooa Bay 7" was
th next question put to him.
"There ara no recommendations to
make. Th Government baa appro
priated $lo0.0no for building dredges
and $110,100 will be provided for work
lnr them."
Major Morrow went to Coos Bay on
th Breakwater on her last trip to
that place, remaining only while th
vessel waa there.
The Breakwater encountered a strong
southerly wind and anow on her way
to Cooa Bay. and returned against a
strong northerly wind. After crossing
th bar early yesterday morning tha
Breakwater was forced to anchor for
three hours below Fort Stevens, to
await the clearing away of fog. She
brought 0 passengers and her usual
amount of freight.
LIGHTSHIP AID SCGGESTED
Navigator's Letter Itcferred to
Chamber of Commerce.
Among several letters received by
Commander Elllcott. lighthouse inspec
tor, concerning tha proper placing of
Lightship No. SO Is on that has re
ceived particular attention on account
of th fore of Its arguments. Tha
letter la from Captain E. W. Mason,
commanding the steamer Rose City,
and It has been referred to a commu
te of th Chamber of Commerce, which
has th subject in charge. In submit
ting this .letter ajid others to the
Chamber of Commerce. Commander
KUlcott says ba will be pleased at any
time to receive auggestlons from navi
gators. The latter from Captain Mason is as
follows:
"I i would suggest that the proper
place would be at No. I buoy, or say,
a quarter of a mile north by west
from where No. buoy is now anch
ored, as this would Rive us sufficient
room to pass on either side, which
will be necessary at times.
"Coming from sea: From the mid
channel buoy to No. I can be made In
one course, then we have a haul of
four points around No. S buoy to Una
up to No. 13. This makes a long turn
and If you miss this buoy on account
of th current, fog, rain or darkness,
you are compelled to com to anchor,
as It would not ba safe to proceed
without having a departure from No.
buoy.
"Aiao. I am compelled to call your
attention to tha mid-channel buoy, as
we hava the same difficulty, if not
more. In locating this buoy either on
going out or coming In. This buoy I
consider the most important one, as
we take it for a departure after cross
ing In over the bar. Coming from
the lightship or tha bell buoy we will
not make this buoy onca out of ten
times, or going from No. to it. If
there is any wind or tide, and then
you hava to be on top of It before
you can see It aa the tide drags It
nearly under.
-It would be a great help to us If a
bell, whistle or gas buoy could be
operated here, or a beacon might ba
placed: some means that we could de
termine this place, as the chang of
course Is very large: In fact, more Im
portant than at any place at the mouth
of tha river.
"The range light near Fort Columbia
1 very seldom seen, aa there Is gener
ally a fog bank hanging over this
land."

SGHOLARSPAYMDRE
Cost of Living Rises at Agri
cultural College.
FIGURES SHOW INCREASE
Investigation Reveals Fact That Ex
penses Now .Are Much More
Than They Were Ten Tears
Affo Report Submitted.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL. COLLEGE,
Corvallls. Or.. Jan. 29. Special.) After
mora than six months of Investigation
and the collection of statistics, a Joint
faculty-undergraduate committee of the
Oregon Agricultural College appointed to
investigate the cost of living for the
students In Corvallls, has completed Its
report, which was yesterday adopted and
submitted to President Kerr. The sta
tistics have been compiled after an in
vestigation of the Incomes and expendi
tures of several hundred students of the
classes from 1900 to 1913, and the tabu
lated figures are compared in detail with
the student expenditures at other col
leges and the gradual rise in the price
of staples.
Fees Are Small.
Exclusive of the college departmental
fees and deposits, which are shown to
average hut JiM.ll per year, the report
shows the average expense for the
frealiman during the past 10 yeara to
have been $214.82; for the sophomore,
$219.66: for the Junior, $253.48, and for the
senior, $2S2J22. During the college year
1909-10, the average freshman's expenses
were $265.16; the average expenses of
the sophomore. $237.03; of the Junior,
$2S5.37, and of the senior. $301.11. From
these figures It appears that there Is a
gradual and fairly regular increase in
the expenses through tha four regular
classes.
The statistics regarding the cost, of
board and rooms in Corvallls during the
college year 1910 show the average cost
of board to have been $3.58 per week; of
rooms, $1.18 per week, and of board and
room when secured together to heve
been $135 per week. At the dormitories,
the average cost of board has Increased
at Cauthorn Hall, the men's dormitory,
from $9.01 per month In 1900, to $15.50 per
month, and at Waldo Hall, the women's
dormitory, from $12 per month In 1900 to
$15.10 per month during the college year
Just past. Tho Increase at the two dor
mitories during the nine yeara has been
63 per cent at Cauthorn and 26 per cent
at Waldo. On the other hand, statistics
compiled from Bradstreefs Stock Report
show that n the same period, the rise
in the prices of staple products haa
amounted to approximately 65 per cent.
Student Incomes Shown.
The statistics showing the average
total Income of self-supporting and non-self-supporting
students are interesting
aa showing that in general the income
of the student who Is wholly self-supporting
Is larger than the incomes of
either the non-self-supporting student or
h student who Is partially self-sup
porting.
Among the general conclusions drawn
by the Investigating committee after a
study of the tabulated figures is the fact
that there has been a gradual increase
in the cost of board and room in Cor
vallls, but an unexpected decrease haa
occurred during the past college year
coincident with the formation of eating
clubs and fraternities. In not only the
cost of board and room but In every
other department of student expenditure.
It Is further concluded that any ad
vancement In the cost of living has been
the result of circumstances over which
the Agricultural College has had no con
trol and has, in no department, been
greater than the general advance in tha
cost of diving throughout the country.
In comparison with similar figures tab
ulated from Cornell University, It is
shown that the minimum student ex
pense at Corvallia Is but 60 per cent of
the average minimum at Cornell, while
the average maximum at Corvallls Is
40 per cent lower than tho stated maxi
mum at Ithaca.
