Denver, Colo., Sept. 28, 29, 30, 1911. Call by the Governor of Colorado In compliance with a resolution ol the Eighteenth General Assembly of the State of Colorado, I, John P. Shafroth, governor of said common wealth, announce I to the people of "those western states and terrltorlei" having one million or more acres of public lands reserved and unre served within their borders" a pub lic lands convention to be held in the city of Denver, Colorado, Septem ber 28, 20 and 30 of this year, for the purpose of discussing all ques Hons, and taking such action as their wisdom may direct, relative to the proper administration of the public domain, the natural resources per taining thereto, and the practical con servation thereof under state author ity and of protesting against congress enacting laws providing for tbe leas ing of the natural resources of the West. The following states and territories are embraced within the call, viz: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colo rado, Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, Ne braska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Da kota, Utah, Washington, Wyoming and Alaska. Inasmuch as the province of the convention is for western people to determine upon questions pertaining to the interests of western states as affected by federal systems, it is made requisite for qualification that delegates shall have been resident taxpayers and voters within their respective Btates for the preceding three years. The governor, senators and con gressmen, and members of the state legislature of each state and terrl tory, and delegate of each territory and. of Alaska, are hereby commis sioned as delegates. Each governor may appoint thirty delegates. The mayor of each city may appoint one delegate for each 1000 of population, but not to exceed' a total of fifty. Each chamber of commerce, board of trade, real estate exchange or other commercial bodies; each board of county , commissioners; each association of stock growers, of lumbermen, of forestry, of irrigation; each horticultural or agricultural or ganization may appoint ten dele gates. Each governor is requested to ap point a state executive committee of five, to co-operate with the Colorado executive committee J. Arthur Eddy, chairman, Denver, Colorado. The real Issue is, plainly and dis tinctly, whether the public domain other than the little remaining farm ing lands shall be held in perpetuity by the national government free from taxation by the states, to be admin Istered through leasehold for revenue for the federal treasury, and under bureaus at the national capitol. A rental , or ilease based upon the output of natural resources Is a tax upon production, and a tax upon production Is invariably paid" by the consumer. Such policy would com pel the western states to bear an undue proportion of the burdens of the national government. No other states have ever been compelled to pay royalties upon their natural prod ucts, why should we? Our wealth must consist, very largely, in those very features, the tax revenue from which is so essential to the main tenance of state government. Even the raw land itself is withdrawn from state taxation. These are the conditions which con front us. It rests entirely with the people of the West whether they will acquiesce In this proposed new order of things. Given under my hand and the Ex ecutive Seal this 29th day of June, A. D. 1911. JOHN F. SHAFROTH, Governor of Colorado. A BENEFIT TO THE COAST. Pacific States Fire Insurance Co. Con solidated With Farmers Union Co. Forms a Strong Local Co. The Pacific States Fire Insurance Homnnnv. with offices in the Chamber of Commerce Building, Portland, Is meeting with marked success through out the Northwest. Nearly 130 local agencies In Oregon are now accepting business for the Company and Its In fluence is being steadily extended. The oblect of the Company is. To keep Money in the Pacific States; to do a general Insurance Business; to Insure Grain and Growing Crops; to distribute its stock In limited amounts among its Stockholders. Realizing that millions of dollars are sent every year to Foreign and Eastern Insurance Companies, this Company was organized by men rep resenting our most conservative and successful business Interests. The ; Company now has about 600 stock holders among which are over 50 lead ling bankers, which is a guarantee of good business administration. The funds are all invested In the Northwest. The Farmers' Union Fire Insurance Co.. of Pendleton, was recently .con solidated with the Pacific States Co. nd Manuel Frledly, of that city added to the Board of Directors. This com bination has materially increased the volume of business and strengthened the Company financially. This Company is one in which the people can justly take pride and one in which all confidence can be re posed. A Jocal Company should have preference In local business. At their offices, 200-204 Chamber of Commerce Building, Portland, President Beach will be pleased to receive friends of the Company at any time, or call and make the acquaintance of the local agent In your town. FARM Notes and Instructions from Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations of Oregon and Washington, Specially Suitable to Pacific Coast Conditions LIVE STOCK CORNERSTONE OF AGRICULTURAL PROSPERITY. By Dr. James Wlthycombe, Director Oro- gon Agricultural College Experi ment Station. Agriculture without live stock on the farm is like bread without yeait. Live stock not only is the basis of successful farming, but is its true leavening Influence as well. It is the only practical means of keeping up the productivity of the soil. Without. stock the soil will inevitably, suffer deterioration 'in its plant food. Since soil fertility is the basis of profitable farming it behooves the farmer to give this problem intelligent atten tion. The great need of Western Oregon is more first-class cows and more good hogs so that a much larger percentage of the crude products of the farm will be consumed by- live stock and thus converted into finished products, Buch as milk, cream, hoga, etc. To those in touch with the situ ation it is unmistakably evident that the counties where live stock in some form has received attention have made the best progress agricultur ally. Take, for example, Washington County; last year this county pro duced over one million dollars' worth of milk, besides great quantities of hogs, poultry, eggs, etc. Dairying has been the principal agricultural in dustry in this county for a number of years, with the result that the ear marks of prosperity are strongly In evidence all over the county. Before the advent of dairying there was not a bank in the county, now there are eleven of these financial institutions, all of which are in a prosperous con dition. In addition to this, good barns and modern homes dot the landscape in every direction. It is truly a progressive agricultural county, made so by live stock. The farms are well tilled and the soil is growing richer rather than poorer. Under-drainage has been practiced ex tensively; in fact, the farmers of Washington County have laid mora tile than have been used in all other counties in Oregon combined. Dairy ing has made this possible. Perman ent road building is now in active pro gress and soon the county highways will be well Improved. Land values are also steadily increasing and the farms are being rapidly subdivided and the new farm homes are adding constantly to the population of the county. This Is practically all due to the cow and other farm stock, and what this stock has done for Wash ington County similar live stock will do for other counties. Polk county is coming rapidly Into line in making live stock the domin ant feature of farming. This county has been noted for its excellent flocks of . sheep and goats for some time. To these the farmers are now add ing dairy herds. At present there are more high-class Jersey herds In Polk County than there are In any other county of the state. This means agri cultural wealth and soon the farmers of Polk County will become more generally prosperous. This county also has some excellent herds of swine and the breeding of draft horses is receiving marked attention This increased production of live stock means the growing of more clover, vetch, alfalfa and other for age crops, which, when consumed upon the farm, become the true soil builders. Other Western Oregon counties are showing a greater interest in live stock husbandry and the ruinous sys tem of exclusive grain-growing, summer-fallow and burning ,of straw Is fortunately rapidly becoming obso lete. There Is ample room and abundant opportunity for the improvement of live stock conditions upon the wheat farms of Eastern Oregon. This soil although phenomenally rich and re markably well adapted to the produc tion of wheat is also well adapted to the production of live stock. Hogs, sheen and draft horses should be produced from these farms In great! numbers. These in time would great ly Increase the value of production per acre and at the same time insure the conservation of soil fertility. The field pea and alfalfa should largely supersede . the summer-fallow. Thesa are both good nitrogen-gatherers, and at the same time furnish excellent feed for the growing and fattening of swine and sheep. Each grain farm should have some draft mares and the growing of good horses should be made a feature of the farm. No better horses can be produced anywhere than can be grown upon the wheat farms of Eastern Oregon. Per haps, however, the greatest field of opportunity in live stock production 13 in swine husbandry. Conditions are highly favorable for the economical production of hogs. These should be grown mainly upon alfalfa with a small supplemental feed of grain and finished upon peas grazed offln the open rieid. mis is an easy auu profitable way of producing hogs, and at the same time a good method of soil building. The peas will produce the best of pork and add nitrogen and organic substance to the soil, both exceedingly essential in the con servation of moisture and the supply ing of plant food for wheat produc tion. This system of farming will enable the farm unit to steadily grow smaller ORCHARD and thus increase the agricultural population of the community. In stead of a diminishing crop yield It will mean a constantly Increasing production. Farming can scarcely hope to come into its own without live stock. Let us speed the day when the farms of Oregon shall have more and better cows, more and bet ter draft horses, many more good hogs and larger and better flocks ol sheep, goats, and poultry. This will mean greater general prosperity and the new wealth thus created will stimulate and rejuvenate every chan nel of trade and bring prosperity, happiness and contentment to the rural home. METHOD COURSES FOR TEACHERS. Corvallis Three weeks of special courses in methods of instruction, designed for teachers, will be given at the opening of the six weeks' summer session of the Oregon Agri cultural College. Method courses In teaching, school management and su pervision, special discussions of prob lems in supervision, and a course of lectures and exercises in physical culture vwlll be included. Seven de partments of work will be treated in the method courses: elements of agriculture, commercial subjects, do mestic science and art, manual train ing, high school subjects, grammar school subjects, and those of " the primary grades.
