Oregon -Agricuituraf' College, """Co'rv'aT lls. Or., Nov. 2. There is an Increased demand for short course instruction by farmers1 clubs. This demand seems to come, from practically - all the states where there has been effort made to in terest the farmer and the farmer's boy, The interest taken by some county scnooLsuparinienaents naa aroused, a sentiment for the short course. The farmer's institute has also been a prolific source of stirring up a desire for the short course to be held In var lous communities ln the nature of lec tures on crops, livestock, dairying, hor tlculture, etc. This system of agricul tural instruction going to the farmer In his own home or school district is the best evidence of sincerity in his -work and at once enlists the sympathy of the person of little faith ln his work. The present plan of demonstration by going to the farmer and Instructing him how to do his work Is the key to rapid im provement In better methods of farm ing. There Is no feature of organization that can equal the county school super intendent when in touch with his work.

This year the farmers' week at the Oregon Agricultural college, which has hitherto always preceded or followed the winter short course immediately, Is to be held December 9 to 14, and the short course January 6 to February 7. Thu change was made because it was found that Oregon farmers can leave their home duties more easily at that time. Just before Christmas, than at any other., it Is manifestly impossible to place the full short course of four weeks (besides the farmers' week) at that season, since pone would care to be away from home at either Thanks giving or Christmas time. Like the short course, the farmers' week Is crowded full of lectures and practical demonstrations calculated to solve tho daily problems of farm Ufa Dairying, fruit growing, truck garden ing, stock raising, the use and care of farm machinery, farm use of concrete, soils and crop rotations, drainage and irrigation and a vast number of similar topics of vital interest to the man who ns'gettfhg-irTivtBgn5frnis'-acfes,'-ttr included in the program. . v '" - .j A vigorous policy of ' agitation for state ownership of fcrltish mines was announced by President Robert BmlHe at the annual meeting of the Miners' Federation of the United Kingdom. , ranged it is hoped to have several prom inent men of the state here to deliver addresses and if Governor Oswald West Is present here as delegate to the Sec ond Minnesota Conservation and Agri cultural Development congress he will fireside at the Oregon Day exercises. liactnr Course JTeature.
