A good roads institute for the benefit
of the farmer, is art innovation which
Judge Thompson and the Lane County
Court proposes to bold on the Fair
Grounds at the Lane County Fair in
September. The fairgrounds commit
tee proposes to make this Institute,
perhaps the first of its kind In the
Btate, a leading; feature of the educa
tional part of the fair.
Tne plan is to hold dally lecture?,
with prominent road authorities as
speakers, and day demonstrations of
the proper use of road-making machin
ery. State Highway Engineer Bowlby
has indorsed the project and will be
present. Among the speakers secured
ara W. B. Fountains, assistant engi
neer of the Southern Pacific in Ore
gon, formerly a prominent highway en
gineer; County Judge Thompson. Clyde
R. Seltx. Cascade Forester, and others.
The lectures will be held September
18. 19 and 20, at 10:30 A. M. An hour
each morning will he devoted to ac
tual demonstration of the use of grad
ing machinery. In one tent will be a
series of models showing steps in road-
construction, and methods of handling
various types of ground. These mod
els are furnished by the department of
Agriculture at Washington.
Recently the County Court held a
road institute among Its County Su
pervisors, which was largely attended
and which was entirely educational.
The county officers war more than
pleased with its success and now pro
pose to hold a road Institute for the
benefit of all the farmers In the
county.

many of the favorltea advanced from one

strength, smelting meeting with especial
favor because of tha improvement In Mex

strong. National Biscuit rose five points.
The upturn aroused little speculative in

eased off.

CORN MARKET IS WEAKER
Heavy Buying. However, Holds
Prices at Former Level Total
Corn Crop Ks-tlmuted at Only
82,500,000,000 Bushels.
CHICAGO. Aug. 20 Wheat today was
dominated largely by the foreign situation,
bullish cables Imparting strength that lasted
throughout the aession until the final hour.
when the market weakened aomewhat on
profit-taking aales. At tha end, prices w.re
H to He net higher. Oats declined s8
So.
Provisions were 2M to 17V4C higher.
The cables brought news of wheat shorts
covering at Liverpool, told of rather unfav
orable crop conditions in Germany, France
and Hungary and carried predictions of ex
perts that for some time yet Europe would
depend on America for most of ber cnoice,
dry wheat. To this bullish news i
added opinions that damage was to be
feared from further rains in the Canadian
Northwest. Good milling demand, espe
cially from th. Southwest, and large ex
port clearances also served to stiffen prices.
Some of th. recent bull snap waa out of
th. corn market today, aa traders believe
that a turn is due. . However, there was a
firm tone and Influential buying cauaed
price recoveries after each dip. one sua
taininr factor waa tha prediction Of an au
thority that the total corn crop, because of
the recent drouth damage tn the soumwest.
would be only 2.25O.00O.OO0 bushels.
Oats eased off In late trading after a
firm start. Selling by leading commission
houses for Southwest account waa the fea
ture of tha market.
Higher prices at the yards, reflecting In
some degree losses caused, by tne nog
cholera in certain sections of the surplus
corn states, stiffened provision prices, though
at tn. Close more were reactiona on iioora-i

ST. JOHNS, Or Aus. 20. (Special)
At the reg-ular meeting: of the City
Council Tuesday a remonstrance was
filed by a number of property owners
against the assessment for the cost of
hard-surfacing Fessenden street, the
remonstrance belnar based ' on the
ground that the assessment exceeded
the SO per cent bonding limit required
by law.
Twenty property owners petitioned
the Council to improve Willamette
boulevard by hard-surfacing and put
ting down cement sidewalks from Bur
lington street to St. Johns avenue, and
a resolution was ordered drawn to start
proceedings for the improvement re
quested. A complaint signed by several prop
erty owners regarding the plank side
walks on North Jersey street, between
Fessenden and Catiln streets, was re
ferred to the street committee and City
Engineer.
An acknowledgment was received
from O.-W. R. & N. officials to the re
ceipt of orders regarding draining
Bradford street and assuring the Coun
cil the matter would receive due at
tention. The matter of this company
planking Bradford street between
Richmond and Charleston streets was
referred to in this communication, and
the company declared that it was too
expensive and Impractical owing to the
numerous switches and frogs. After
some discussion the City Clerk was In
structed to order the space described
to be filled with cinders by the railway
company.
Members of the Women's Christian
Temperance Union filed a remonstrance
against the wearing of X-ray skirts
within the city limits, and requested
the Council to adopt a resolution mak
ing it a misdemeanor. The matter waa
referred to Chief of Police Allan for
adjustment.
When the matter of purchasing sev
eral small tracts of land for city parka
came up for consideration. Mayor
Bredeson suggested that sealed offers
be tendered by those having suitable
properties to offer, giving a price and
complete description of the property
offered. 'This suggestion waa adopted
by the CounciL
' The Council voted to discontinue the
cutting of weeds for the remainder of
this season.
Tbe ordinance governing the use of
intoxicants In pool halls, dance halls,
etc, reached the third reading and was
passed, with the penalty ranging from
5 to $50 for violation.
An ordinance providing for financial
protection for members of the volun
teer fire department who happen to be
Injured going to or from a fire was
referred back to city Attorney uatz
meyer to insert a clause calling for a
certificate of a regular physician De
fore any money could be paid. and. in
no case shall the amount exceed $300.
The question of hard-surfacing Wil
lamette boulevard from Richmond to
Burlington streets came up. but the
City Attorney recommended that no ac
tion be taken until after a deal now
pending be consummated whereby the
city acquires the title to a 20-foot strip
for street purposes from J. E. Kirk.
The funeral of little Bert Gould,
who died Tuesday night ss a result of
being run over by a sand-wagon loaded
with two yards of sand, took place to
day from the undertaking parlors of
A. H. Blackburn, with interment at the
Rose City Cemetery.
The little fellow's father works for
the Jackson Sand & Gravel Company
and Bert was hanging to one of the
company's wagons when he fell off and
a rear wheel of the load passed over
him. The accident happened Monday
and the child lived until Tuesday night.
