It the old orchards of western Oregon could bo quickly coinerted into new ones tho result would bo ot conspicuous value to tho state. Tho news from Corvallls is that a movement with that end lnr view has beon launched, and that fruit growers' organizations, fruit offi cials, the state board of horticul ture1 and the agriculture college are ljack of It. It is proposed to show tho farmer that by cutting down his old troes and grafting new varieties on the next year's growth, a com plete new orchard can bo built on the ruins of the old within three to five" years. M. O. Lownsdalo and otlieu eminent orchardlsts of the state, insist that the plan is per fectly feasible, and that a revenue of five to tpn dollars per treo Is possible. Hearing may bo brought about a year earlier by leaving about two or three feet of the old trunk above ground and grafting In order to bo. successful. A successful movement In this Lchnlfi would bo remarkable In its effects. If removal of tho old trees wero universal there would bo im mediate destruction o fthe chief ren dezvous of pests. For tho unsightly old orchards with their unmerchant able, fruit rotting on tho ground tli ore would bo substituted healthy younj?, trees bearing a merchantable and profitable fruitage. Tho old or chards are made up of ancient and unsaleable varieties, set out in pio neer time, and unsought by the pres ent consumer. For these in tho graft ing process would bo substituted up-to-date: varieties produced under tho best conditions and at onco popular in the markets. It is the testimony of exerts that tho slto of tho old orchard, which yielded no revenue, would at onco becomo tho most profitable laud on tho farm. The net remilt would bo a fruit product of s'ich proportions and character as to mako its own market, provide for Ita own unlo and yield a vast ag gregate of money to thosf tho busluossj. & Tint, what is best of all, tho out lay ot effort and cash In reaching tho changed condition Is merely nom ridiil. It Is the most promising of all tho avenues to profit on any farm on which an old orchard stands, !f costs bo considered. Tho plan must commend Itself, and has be sides tho indorsement of tho best known frultmcn in tho stato. It Is one of such importance that every commercial body, overy grango, every school board and overy citi zen should adopt as the community policy, giving it cooperation nnd hearty support. NECESSITY FOR FRKE LIBRARIES It is tho duty of tho stato to give each future citizen an opportunity to learn to lead, It Is equally Its duty to give each citizen an oppor tunity to Ubo that power wisely for hlnmelf and tho stato. Wholesome literature can bo furnished to all tho readers in a community at a Traction of tho cost necessary to teach them to read, and tho power to read may then becomo a means of a life long education. A library Is nn es sential part of a broad systom of ed ucation, and a community should think is as discreditable to bo with out it woll conducted freo public li brary as to bo without a good school. The hooks that a hoy leads for plcaKiiro do moro to deteriuluo his ideals ami shape bin character than the text book he studies in the schools. Hud ti ml indifferent liter ature is now so common that the k will have somo sort of read In 'If they have a good public 11 li'.i' "Use V ill read wholesome t. oh ,n'iul learn to admlro Washing ton; Lincoln mid othor great men. vT !(,., - $ GOOD EVENING. Life's Symphony, live content with small To J means; to seek elegance rather than luxury rather than and refinement fashion; to be worthy, not respectable and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babies and sages, with open heart; to hear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await 4 occasions, hurry never hi word, to let the spiritual, unhid- den and unconscious grow i.n through the common. Th s is to be my symphony. William Henry Channlng. The Mlllicoinu Symphony. To rest content with small smokes; to seek sandwiches rather than ambrosias, and claret punch rather than ab- slnthe; to be hungry not raven- ous; some wealthy, not broke; to brace up, come early, talk oc- casionly, applaud freely, to listen to quips and jokes, to stories and chestnuts with open heart; to glad hand cheerfully; to hurrah bravely, welcome luncheon; smile ever In a word to let comradeship, unhid- den and unconscious, whoop up through the evening. This is to be our symphony. Chinning. .- Even wild oats seem tame to some Coos Bay young men. Somo people In Marshfleld do not bellovo In putting off until tomorrow the trouble they can borrow today. "Why aro you always growling about my biscuits?" said a Marsh fleld woman to her husband. "Oh," ho replied, "thoro aro times when a man would rather fight than eat." Without a library many of them will glont over the exploits of depraved men and women, and their earliest ambitions will bo tainted. Each town needs a library to fur nish more practice in reading for tho little folks In school; it needs it to givo tho boys and girls who havo learned to read a tasto for whole somo literature that informs and In spires; it needs it ns a centor for an Intellectual nnd spiritual activ ity that shall leaven tho wholo com munity and mako healthful and in spiring themes tho burden of tho common thought substituting, by natural methods, clean conversation and Htornturo for petty gossip, scan dal, and oral and printed teachings in vice. Libraries aro needed to furnish tho Incentlvo nnd tho opportunity for wider study to tho pupils of tho schools; to teach them "tho scionco and nrt of reading for a purposo," to glvo tho boy and girl with hidden talent tho chanco to discover and de velop it; to givo to tho mechanic and artisan n chanco to know what their ambitious follows aro doing; to glvo to men and w onion, weary and worn from trending a narrow round, ex cursion in fresh nnd dollghtful fields to glvo to clubs for study nnd nmuso inont matorlnl for bottor work, and, hiBt but not least, to give wholesomo employment to all classes for thoso Idle hours that wreck moro lives than nny othor causo.

While giving a geography lesson, a teacher called upon a precocious youngster named Johnny to tell what ho could about "zones." Johnny re sponded as follows: "There are two kinds of zones, masculine and femi nine. The mnbculiro zones are tem perate and intemperate, while tho feminine zones are both horrid and frigid." "Are you tho editor?" "Wo are." "My name is Jones George H. Jones." "Sit down, Mr. Jones." "Not on your life! Your paper printed an article about me yester day." "Yes?" "You called me a corrupter of pub lic morals, a thief, a black leg and a lot of other things." "We did." "Well, I am here to tell you, by thunder! that my middle Initial is H. and not J. If you can't spell my name right after this, let it alone!" WITHIN OUR WORLD Whether there's a finer world th's has got to do! Whether there's a sweeter sky ours Is very blue! Whether there's a better life let us trust and wait, Lovo is in the lanes of rest, at thh sweetheart gate! Whether there's a lighter toll ours is at His will! Whether there Is a brighter land this Is ours to till! Whether there's a kindlier ago here's our time and place, Love within tho porch of dreams with her light, her grace! Baltimore Sun. "I used to think that Bill Thomp son was tho stupidest man going," remarked Editor Whlsnant, after a subscriber complained about some ar ticle In tho paper, "but according to that fellow I am not far behind." "What did Bill do?" asked Col. Brlgham. "Why don't you know? Bill's dog's head got stuck In a pitcher, and Bill cut off his head to save the pitcher and then broke tho pitcher to get tho head out." "Theso pianos look too cheap," said tho young woman with tho picture hat, her eyebrows contracting slightly. "Show mo one -of tho best you'vo got." "Yes ma'am," said W. R. Haines. "May I ask how high you care to go?" "Mo? Oh, I only go to G, but I want ono with nil tho octaves just tho same."
