RIOE of Prineville For Commissioner JAMES RICE of Ilnycreck SUPPORT THg UNIVERSITY Judging by the editorial com ment of the state pi ess, there is no danger that the appropria tion of $125,000 for tho support of the Universitj' of Oregon will be defeated in the coming elec tion, when that question will be submitted to the voters of the state by a referendum petition. It is to hoped, however, that the vote for the appropriation will be so decisive that the referen dum will never again be in voked upon a measure for the support of an educational insti union in this state. Oregon is a growing state, and her educa tional institutions should be supported in a' manner which will permit them to keep apace with the progress of the state. The amount appropriated by the last legislature, $125,000, is little enough for- the support oi our chief educational institu tion, Washington and Idaho are each more liberal with their state universities, and as a con sequence they are in .a prosper ous condition and take their places in the front rank of the institutions of the Northwest. Washington last 3'ear appro priated in the neighborhood of a half million dollars for build ings which the state university is to have after they have been used for the Seattle exposition, and the fact that the university was to get the benefit was one of the strongest inducements in securing that appropriation. Liberality has characterized the treatment of the state univer sity by the Washington legis lature, and the wisdom of the policy is evidenced by the fact that the University of Wash ington has 1200 students, while Oregon has only a third of that number, because the university has been handicapped by lack of state support. That any one should begrudge our state uni versity a fair and reasonable measure of support is incom prehensible, and we believe that the intelligent and progressive voters of the state are in a large majority, and will vote solidly for the university appropriation. yield enqri)pus, but tho quality snow dining tho early part o of the potatoes cannot be ex- tho winter is responsible for oelled anywhere. 411 competi- much datnnge to timber.

One linn has 135 acres in potatoes on land under the Furnish-Coe irrigation ditch. Last year this firm had SO acres of potatoes on new, raw laud, and the venture was so success ful that the acreage was nearly doubled this year. When Central Oregon gets rail transportation the potato orop will be one of tho most im portant prodiiots of this section, for this section appears to bo especially well suited for po itttto oulture.
