Is the "city feller" necessarily a fool at agriculture, where the rube makes an easy living? Can a man from the city buy a farm and make it pay? These questions enter the mind of almost every city man now and then when the farm-owning bee enters the j ventilator of his derby. "Yes, he can make it pay, provid ing " answers Prof. O. S. Morgan, who is a specialist on the subject. He is the second man at Columbia University to occupy the chair of ag riculture; the first held that distinc tion in 1894. "Yes," says Professor Morgan, re ported by the New York Evening Sun, "there is a place for the city man on the farm, providing he comes prepared to cope with the questions that will arise there. "Four out of five city men who go into farming with intentions of mak ing that their future work prepare for it by one or two months of cas ual reading of farmers' bulletins and like literature, and think they are farm wise. These men are elected to flunk. "The trouble with city men is that they think that in a few months, or a year's study at the most, they can go out on a farm and teach farming to men who have been at it all their lives. "It will be generally conceded that city men ought to stay in the city and make good city men and farmers ought to stay on the farm and make good farmers. But when the city man does go on the farm he ought at least to prepare for the work which the farmer has been studying all his life. When countrymen come to the city they always start at the bottom. There are thousands of sue cessful business men In New York who came here from the farm and no one would ever know it, for they all started from the bottom and went to the top. When city men go to the farm they begin at the top and go down to the bottom. "Most city men going to the farm commit their first piece of folly when they buy their farm land from the agent. Too many agents make It their business to convince people that a piece of land really worth $2,000 is a great bargain at $6,000. "Many of the deluded chaps who are looking for bargain land near New York have palmed off on them scabby New York state land. They somehow cannot realize that shrewd, long-headed farmers have years ago( gone all over New York state with a fine tooth comb and appropriated all the good land. One should not expect to find good land for sale in the hands of a real estate agent. There are no more free or bargain lands.- Good New York land now commands an average price of from $150 to $200 an acre. Few New Yorkers seem to know that. "And then the city man, even if he gets and pays for land worth having fails to make himself thor oughly familiar with the whole busi ness for two years or so both from a practical and scientific standpoint. When contemplating buying a farm he should visit the place at least a dozen time's at different periods of the year to see just what the land can do. He should consider the crops that the land is adapted to and the accessibility of the land to rail road stations and markets. Does he usually do all that? "Nevertheless city men of the right kind are in place on the farm and actually needed there. Good busi ness men intent on making the farm their future business and willing to exchange their business abilities for some farmer's practical experience will lend new color and significance to farm life. The farmer lacks the habit of bookkeeping and of accu rately computing profits and losses. The business of the average farmer continually has leaks of some sort somewhere, though hlB figuring al ways shows him a profit. Accurate accounting figures in his own labor and that' of his wife and children, his annual tax and the annual depre ciation in value. That is where the city man's business precision would help."

FIRE TO BURN FOREVER Dedication of Memorial Fireplace at O. A. C. Girls' Dormitory is Impressive. Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis, May 16. The dedication of the memorial fireplace in Waldo Hall, the girls' dormitory of the Ore gon Agricultural College, by visiting Portland business men last night was the most impressive ceremony ever held in the hall. Fires were lighted which, figuratively, will burn forever, as O. M. Plummer of Portland said In his dedicatory address. Miss Lucy Crawford of Ashland, a Benior in domestic science, as presi dent of the Waldo Hall Club present ed the torch ior lighting the fire, say ing: "To light this fire I give you a torch. In it are herbs of the field for health of the body, a fern leaf for grace, a sprig of elm for peace, one of oak for strength, evergreen to sliow we live forever in the deeds we have done, rosemary for remem brance and pansies for thoughts." The motto she gave for the hearth is "Tibi splendet focus," which is "For you this hearth shines." Upon receiving the torch Mr. Plummer turned to Dean Crayne and presented her with a handsome silver match box to be hung on the fire place. It contained two silver match es, one engraved with the numerals of the present senior class, with which he lighted the torch, the other marked with the 1914 class numer als, to be used next fall by a senior president of the Waldo Hall Club for the new year in lighting the fire for the new year. Every year the outgoing senior girls will provide a silver match for the next class. The fireplace is marked by a hand some silver dedication plate, en graved "Presented to the young women of Waldo Hall by the Oregon and Portland Business Men's Excur- sl n, April 26, 1912." The dedication was the finale of the entertainment of 180 guests of the college for the first annual Homecoming Day of the Portland alumni. It followed immediately the banquet given by the domestic sci ence department under Dean H. W. Calvin. Th3. girls of the cooking classes prepared and served a seven course dinner which included the fol lowing. Fir3t course Bouillon and sippets. Second course Cracked crab with Hollandalse sauce and sandwiches. Third course Baked lamb, mint Jelly, peas in fontage cups and browned sweet potatoes. Fourth course Creamed chicken in bread boxes.
