SALEM HIGH SHOULD TEACH AGRICULTURE . Agriculture is being taught in the high 'schools of Mc Iinnville, Newberg, WoodburV Gresham, and in several ol the Bouthern and eastern Oregon high schools- ' Why not in, the Salem high school? . Salem is surrounded by a country capable of the greatest diversity of successfully grown agricultural and horticul ; Jtural crops, along with poultry - breeding and dairying and live stock in its yarious branches ' And there is no district in the whole of the United States 'where as many beginnings of diversification hav been, al ready made. ' '. On this account, this is the city of all cities of the whole country where agriculture ' should be taught in the high SChOOl. ' . .1 ' 3V V A AA' Ay , AA y v' ''-A AA- A i At Pomona, Cat, most successful classes are maintained i in agriculture, among both boys and girls, and arrangements fare made with the farmers around that city. to allow for practical j teaching by actual work .on their farms so that 'real "dirt farmers" may be turned out; young men and wo ; men who will be able to enter into the pursuits of agriculture well" equipped to make their work successful. The teaching ( there goes orv-through the whole year. Pig and poultry and ! calf and lamb clubs are organized, and there is field and gar 'den and orchard work, with practical demonstrations going on all the time, along with the work with the hands and with i tools and machinery, e ls3 the a it was , infamous to keep it going for three years. says the Washington Republican. ;.' ,.r ' . : Spokane, wbkh rejoice In the census showing the lowest illiter acy rate of any Amer-can etty, pro poses to do better by seeking on each of its 887 recorded illiterates and Uklng ; him In hand.

It could be crowded in some how, in the most overcrowded . conditions, for a great deal of the work ought to be done out of doors,' on the farms.

First." let me say. I do not care about: his fight on the Catholic church, that is his busi ness and so long as be seems to enjoy it, let him have unlimited opportunity. . However, in Justify ing his attitude ha make a state ment that should be analyzed. It is this:-" vV'vv:f "." --'.I-..." r "But I do ? condemn, and make war on: the Bfstem that declares its opposition to free education, a free press, free dom of civil h and I religious thought." j : , That statement taken by Itself will be concurred fn by every good citlsen and by hone more heartily than the Catboue lay and clerical. The Injustice of the statement lies In the fact that the speaker conveyed to his audience that the Catholic church was the system which is doing' the things that he condemns and makes war on. I challenge any man or woman to point to an act or word of the Catholic church or of Catholic paople opposing free education. free press or freedom of thought. Not only do Catholics willing pay their taxes for free schools. but they contribute their means for other schools in which train ing in religion 'and morals can ac company study of the text books " Not only are Catholics atd the Catholic church In this land, and in every land., in favor5 of freedom ot the press and of civil and re ligious thought, but It is a sad fact Chat they are the only people In the United States today who suf fer as individuals from the bigo tory and intolerance which deny to them the, right of free exercise of religious belief. - t - Do . freedom-loving Americans stop to think W that?.
