Nov. 12. (Spe cial.) A record-breaking crowd at tended the third day's session of the extension school conducted hero today under State College direction and the auspices of the Citizens' Club of this city. Two hundred and fifty farmers. Including wives, sons and daughters, were present to hear the speakers. The Pacific Coast Condensed Milk Company, of Chehalis, served a palatable lunch eon in an adjoining halL At 1 o'clock the boys' band from the Washington Btate Training School here gave a con cert at the City Hall Park. One of the principal speakers at this morning's session was P. J. Kemer, sreneral superintendent of the Pacific Coast Condensed Milk Company. He announced that, after long hesitancy, the company was now willing to buy milk from cows that were fed food from silos, on condition that the silage had been prepared and fed In a proper manner. The company's attitude In the past had been to discourage use of silo prepared food. Mr. Kenzer reported that the company Is today paying ten cents per hundred pounds more for milk than It did one year ago, although the price of butter fat Is lower. The former slump In the condensed milk market has become a thing of the past and the company is now anxious to get all the milk possible. "Breeding Up the Dairy Herd," was the subject of a most Interesting hour's talk by H. L. Blanchard, who told the dairymen present that they could well afford, some 10 or 20 of them together, to pay as much as $2000 for a high bred sire of the most valued kind of whatever breed they might select, from pome famous family of milk stock, un der the community breeding plan. The value of cows giving from 6000 pound3 to 9000 pounds of 4 per cent milk was compared and by figures the point wts driven home to every cow rniiker present, that he should weed out the animals that do not come through with the amount and quality of milk that will pay returns In dollars and cents at the end of the year. W. A. Linklater, of Puylalup Experi ment Station, talked of "Principles ot Feeding." He pointed out the values of thiy foods which had been tested In his department and showed wherein certain foods have been found better than others. His auditors asked ques tions that added greatly to the results or the meeting. Mrs. H. D. Whittaker. the poultry expert, spoke at the afternoon session and at each of the section meetings. At the assembly room In the Public LI brary.

Thomas Dlggrinii, Well-to-do Rancher, Alleges Undue Influence Was Brousrht Upon Aged Father. - ENTERPRISE. Or. Nov. 12. (Spe cial.) Hearings In the contest over the will of David Dlggina were begun at the Courthouse yesterday. Dlggins died September 2, 1912, at Joseph. In March of 1912 he made a will bequeathing the bulk of his estate of upwards of $20, 000 to LeRoy G. Isley, his stepson, the son of his second wife. Small sums were left for improvements at the Prairie Creek cemetery and an annuity was provided for the widow. To Thom as L. Dlggins, his only son. was left $100, an equal amount being willed to his two children, the testator's grand children. , The contest has been brought by Thomas Dlggins, a son. a well-to-do rancher and stock-raiser of Weston, He is here with his counsel. At the time the will was made public It was stated that Dlggins had passed over his son, because he had given him money years ago, and that, with this start, the son had become rich. Hence it was said, the testator concluded it was only fair that he give his stepson a. start In life, too. Thomas Diggins says his father never gave him a dol lar; that he made what he has without assistance from any one. He and hi counsel contend that his father, abou 90 years old. was subjected to undue Influence when he made Isley his chief beneficiary. An interesting clause of the will pro vines that the principal of the estat be paid to him only if he prove himself to be "an Industrious, ambitious and economical man and a good citizen, Otherwise, the estate shall be held in trust and the net income paid to Isley until he proves himself "worthy" to receive the principal. The estate consists chiefly of mort gages on Wallowa County real estate. PUBLICITY TALKS' GIVEN JAMES A. WOOD CRITICISES ADVER TISING IN SUPERLATIVES. Portland Ad Club Members Told That Prospective Homeseeltera Are Not Given Proper Information. 'Let us seek less to amaze and more to attract," was the advice on methods of advertising the Northwest among Easterners, given by James A. Wood. of Seattle, former commissioner of ex ploitation for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, at the luncheon of the Portland Ad Club at the Portland Hotel yesterday. Mr. Wood said that statistics, while they serve an excellent purpose In ad vertising the country, do not give pros pective homeseekers a complete idea of what we have to offer. "If we could get out of the habit of stunning them with the size of our turnips, and the fertility of our soli,-' he Bald, "ana give them some idea of the fine qualities of our people, the ed ucational advantages we can offer, and the fact that the Northwest Is a place to live instead of a wild frontier, where one should try to make a stake and then get out as soon as possible, our work would prove much more effec tive." Mr. Wood predicted that the exposi tion at San Francisco in 1916 will give more opportunity for advantageous ad vertising to the Northwest than even the two expositions held formerly, one in Portland and one in Seattle. E. A. Trefz, of the National Chamber of Commerce, spoke on the importance of the advertising man's place in the business world of the present day, and urged the necessity of co-operation to bring about effective development of business. M. Mosessohn announced an Invitation to the members of the Ad Club to attend the luncheon which is to be given today by the Chamber of Commerce in honor of Mr. Trefz and Captain Dollar, at the Commercial Club.
