preached early and late by the Portland
Young; Men's Christian Association during

enter. They will be pitted against each
other In utilising uniform size plots of
ground In the production of vegetables.
As In the past, when the Y. M. ". A.
took up similar protects, the Oregon Agri
cultural College Is going to co-operate.
Professor A. G. Bouquet, of that institu
tion, will deliver two addresses before the
your.g sardenera and will also write a
series of articles on gardening, which will
be published as bulletins by the Agricul
tural Cntlege and distributed to partici

fessor Bouquet will speak In the Y. V.
C. A. auditorium, explaining the 'con
test. The reg'.strat'on will close on Feb
ruary 11. and on the night of February

ond lecture.
The boys who register win be divided
Into two groups. The first section will
plant and cultivate early vegetables, and
the second section will raise late vege
tables Each boy will be limited to a
piece of ground. 10 by IS feet, and If he
has no such plot at his home the T.
M. C. A. has made arrangements to give
him the use of one.
The exact vegetables to be raised have
not yet been decided on. They must, how
ever, be produced In certain definite
proportioned to be mentioned In the rules
of the contest. Each division will raise
four vegetables, and the first division.
In addition, will cultivate sweet peas. AU

will gain useful knowledge by famllarixlng
themselves with the best methods of
vegetable gardening.

REED PRESIDENT WARNS
School Plans Should Go Slowly. He
Advises.
Taking the ground that the charac
ter of an Institution, as shown by Its
first Instructors, first courses of study
and first students, stamps Itself In
delibly upon the future. President Fos
ter, of Reed Institute, In an Interview
yesterday advised the exercise of ex
traordinary caution In proceeding with
the plans for Portland's new college
of liberal arts. He said:
"The trustees of the Reed Institute
have had under careful consideration
for several months the important ques
tion of the date of opening the College
of Liberal Arts and Sciences which
they purpose to establish with the In
come from the funds of the Reed be
quest. v Although they have felt, with
the community, a keen desire to wel
come the first students as soon as pos
sible, they have realized nevertheless
that what can be accomplished toward
the foundation of such a college in a
given time is a matter on which the
Judgment of experts should be secured
and weighed with deliberation."

"It is found on examination that the
State of Oregon actually expended

Rupture Cured
Without Operation
No Charge If You Don't Get Relief

menta stimulating, life-restoring mas
sage which cures by STRENGTHENING
the weakened abdominal muscles or rup

ness which la the real CAUSE of rupture)
Just as exercise restores strength to a
weak arm.
The Cluthe Truss has cured thousands
among them people over 60, 60 and 70
years old who have been ruptured from
20 to GO years cured them even after
everything else. Including operation, has
