In his adoress this afternoon at the Multnomah County Fair on "The Next Eteps in Agricultural Development" President W. T. Kerr, of the Oregon Agricultural College, emphasized co operation and organization on the part of the farmers of Oregon to obtain bet ter results, better crops and better prices for their produce. He congratu lated the Multnomah County Fair As sociation on the improvements it had made and' said that fairs are important factors for material and social ad , vancement. "It is through co-operation and organization." said President Kerr, "that the high cost of living may be reduced through more efficient farm methods, more production, better con servation of the soils, better crops and better markets. The producer has not been getting enough and the consumer has been paying too much. Portland Milk Prices Cited. "I am told that the consumer of milk In Portland pays three times as much as the man who furnishes the milk. "A box of apples costing $1.60 in Port land was sold in Philadelphia for $8.50, bo that the consumer often pays 300 and 500 per cent more than the pro ducer receives, which can be remedied through co-operation, organization and business methods. It is through the aggregation of capital that great enter prises are carried out, and so the farmer must organize. He must study the soils and stop crop waste. He must adopt economical methods in farming, the same as the manufacturer. The by products that are wasted must be used. This can be done through creameries, canneries, through business methods and scientific agricultural and horticul tural cultivation. "It is important that the farmer have a market, and this can only be secured through organization. College's Work Outlined. "The Oregon Agricultural College has established a bureau to study economic conditions and help the farmers of Oregon get better results and secure better markets and betteT prices. An expert from the Federal Government is now in the state to co-operate with the Oregon - Agricultural College along these lines." The attendance at the fair was about 1200. Russellville Grange won first honors In the Grange contest. The awards to the Beven Granges are: Russellville, first prize, $250; Pleasant Valley, sec ond. $225; Gresham third. $200; Lents fourth, $175; Rockwood fifth, $150; Co lumbia sixth. $125; Evening Star, $100.

"The Democratic party was pledged in its platform in the most speciflo terms to economy," said Senator Borah, "yet Congress has already up to this date appropriated $1,1" ".000.000. That does not include the river and harbor bill, carrying appropriations in cash and obligations amouting to $93,000, 000. Neither does it include any of the appropriations made necessary, as it Is claimed, by the war. "The appropriations to date are in excess of the Republican appropria tions of the last Congress, when the Republicans were in power, by $100, 000,000, and the appropriations of the present Congress, when completed, will, in my Judgment, amount to $200,000,000 or $250,000,000 in excess of that which was denounced as extravagance."

British Officer Aboard Grows Uneasy and Captain Threaten Irons if Talk la Repeated. Among the passengers on the Brit ish Union liner Maitai, which recently arrived at San Diego from Tahiti af ter an exciting run through waters of the South Pacific to escape the Ger man cruiser Leipsig, was Miss May Kelly, of Portland, who arrived home last night. Captain Carson, of the Maitai, was in a peculiar dilemma. He had on board the German Consul from Tahiti, a French port. According to the In ternational code of warfare the Brit ish captain was required to deliver the Consul and his family at a neutral port in safety. He put in at San Diego, therefore, instead of going di rect to San Francisco. Miss Kelly says that the Maitai was in' almost constant danger of approach by German vessels, several of which were known to be in the South seas and off the North American coast. Among the passengers were several Englishmen from Australia, much dis gusted because they had to change ships at Wellington from the big Will ochra to the small Maitai. They refused to listen to the steamship company's explanation that the Willochra was a chartered boat, whose owners refused to let her make the run, and were a continual source of annoyance through out the voyage. At San Diego the ringleader (a Cap tain in the British army), told the pas sengers that Captain Carson was lost and came in to find out where he was, beside calling him numerous uncompli mentary names, so Captain Carson sent for the man to come up on the bridge, told him in the presence of his officers exactly what he thought of him in very seamanlike language, and that If he heard one more whimper from him the rest of the voyage he would put him in irons.

"WARSHIP" TO BE SHOWN Oregon, Built of Evaporated and Dried Fruits and Hops, to Be One of the Chief Displays. More Space Is Taken. The Commercial Club of Hood River has formulated plans for an exhibit at the Manufacturers' and Land Prod ucts Show. One space in the center of the land products division, contain ing 600 square feet, will hold a pyra mid of apples, 16 feet square and 15 feet high and surmounted at the top by a double profile papier mache map of the Hood River Valley, 20 feet long and three feet high.

Across the aisle will fee a competitive showing of apples, principally New towns and Spitzenbergs. The space oc cupied by this display will have a frontage of 40 feet and will be 15 feet deep.

"W BY LEONE CASS BAER. HAT'S in a name, anyway?" chanted Cora Belle Bonnie, leading woman of the Baker Players, when I asked that delectable young woman about the trio of names she signs on her checks and the hotel register. "Delectable" Is the right word, although it does sound as If C. B. B. were an eatable. Used in its other sense of "highly charming," delectable fits the vivacious young leading woman Just as if she. were poured Into it. Her name. she explained frankly. was wished on her. Every family has its skeleton closet of names and very few of us escape without the title, back or front or middle, of somebody who helped make the family. We all get it. I got mine in the middle. Cora Belle Bonnie got hers twice in the same place. One grandma was Cora, one was Belle, and both grandmas wanted the dimpled, saucer-eyed, laughing baby girl called for them. Boneye French, If you please, with accent on the last syllable, as is the habit of French names happened to be Cora Belle's father's name, so that's bow that much of it happened. uora J3eue .Duueye was tue usual child prodigy when it came to recita tions, and accompanied her rather, a retired Colonel of the Civil War. when he went to make speeches at old sol diers' reunions and similar exciting tests. She was called the little daugh ter of her father's regiment and says that, even now, when she s home on a visit that she rides with Paul Revere, charges with Cusftr and unfurls the Blue and the Gray with gestures, while all the neighbors come in to witness and think she is grander than Sarah Bernhardt ever dared to be. "Pieces" Lead to Stage. From reciting so much Cora Belle got stage-struck and ran away from boarding school and joined a dramatic stock company. By some machination known only to printers her name was misspelled Bonnie instead of Boneye. which she regarded with the supersti tion of actor folk as a good sign. So she just let it alone and it brought her the good luck she hoped for, that and her own abilities and personal charm. She has no fads and even forgoes the pleasure of having her only pet, a Boston bull terrier, with her because she says she knows that people rather expect to see an actress toting a dog around on the streets. "Any woman in other walks of life may walk out with the entire kennel tagging at her heels or pulling on a leash and attract no. attention, but let an actress take the family pup for a morning constitutional and she 1b for ever damned," she said. "Therefore, I leave my dog at home with my folk." "Home" for Miss Bonnie is Hammond, Ind., although she has spent most of her time in the Southern states. She played In stock two seasons in Gal- WOMEN HEADS OPPOSED Dr. A. W. Smith Says Men Are Bet . ter Fitted to Direct Schools. Dr. Alan Welch Smith, of the Port land School Board, yesterday announced his opposition to placing women at the head of departments in the public schools. His reason, he says, is that he believes men are better fitted for the positions. Dr. Smiths statement came as the result of Superintendent Alderman's nomination of Miss Alice Joyce as head of the school garden department, fol lowing the appointment of Miss Grace De Nef f as principal of the Kenton school. "After due consideration." said Mr. Alderman. "I have decided to recom mend Miss Joyce for this position." His manner Indicated that he expected op position. Dr. Smith was on his feet In an Instant. "I object to that." he said sharply. "I want it understood that I have no personal objection to Miss Joyce. I never saw her until yesterday. But I object to placing women at the head of departments. I made an exception in the case of Miss DeNeff. but I want to announce right here that I object to it as a general thing. I think men are better fitted for the positions." Action on the matter was postponed on the motion of Director Plummer. FRANCHISE IS QUESTIONED Rights of Kenton Line to Be Investi gated by Commissioner. An Investigation to determine the present standing of the franchise granted by the City Commission to George F. Heusner for an interurban electric line from the Kenton district to the West Side business district by way of the Broadway bridge has been ordered by City Commissioner Daly, He says he believes the terms of the franchise have not been complied with and the rights granted are therefore void. The franchise provided that construc tion work be started within 90 days. The franchise provides further that the line must be completed and under oper ation within 18 months from the time of granting. The franchise .was passed November 26, 1913. and apparently nothing has been done toward con struction of the line.

A dispatch to Reuter's from Sydney. N. S. W-, says: "The state government acted In accordance with the powers conferred on it by Parliament at the outbreak of the war to prevent gambling in food stuffs when they seized 140,000 bags of wheat which its holders had refused to sell at 4 shillings 2 pence per hundred weight, the price fixed, by the government."

I didn't ask her how many men she met, but I'll wager that every one of them who had a chance broke his r.euk to meet the happy little Cora Belle. She isn't do mestic, just hates to hear about put ting up prunes or how many moth balls t put away with father's Summer hat a.id she loves to walk when she can do it In an automobile. Auto Driving: Another Talent. She can drive her own car, too, she says, if she has one to drive, and she is so dippy over the mountains we have scattered all around on the skyline that I just wished Charlie Berg could hear her. He'd book her for a week of Wednesday luncheons at the Ad Club. Miss Bonnie has a big contralto voice and plans to go on with her mu sical work while she's in Portland. She tangoes and loves it. Also she can not sew and is the first actress I've met in a year who doesn't design her own clothes. Her bump of location Is a large dent and she can never go straight home from anywhere because she gets lost. So if by chance you meet a starry-eyed little girl with an anx ious expression on her otherwise mis chievous face, who asks "Please, where am I?" don't think its some romantic adventure you're about to undergo, or that it's a touch for a contribution or a tag-seller for a home for decrepit cats. It is only Cora Belle Bonnie up to her regular habit. She is lost. Simply show her the way to her hotel. FOE NOT ANTWERP VISITOR Man Thought German Field Marshal Merely Envoys LONDON. Sept. 17.
