Egan of the Gervais District Presents the Industry in This Light No One Here Likely to Go Wrong With a Few Acres of Mint, With Soil Conditions Favorable Editor Statesman: About four years ago my father the late Wiliam H. Egan, planted a small acreage of peppermint on our beaverdam land, as he was an advocate of diversified farming. . and the growing and harvesting could be handled in conjunction .with the other crops, as we gen erally barves the mint, just after the major part of the -peach and pear .crops are harvested and a tew ; dayi- before hop , picking starts. " :- - " . lias Keen Satisfactory .. What experience we have had, thotieh on a small scale, has been ,very satisfactory as the mint has a rood: navinx crop. Of this Tear, being, a high . price year, has swelled the aver age price, for, wnat time we nave hern growing the same. T have found that for the suc cess of mint growing ranch de- nenda on cultivation and harvest tog. The ground mast he prop erly plowed early in the spring, and try to control too Wds until F F should bnild , a. company still; $500 or $600 will build a good one.' In this way one saves haul ing any great distance, in case there Is no still close by. Besides the hay can be kept at home, as it Is too expensive to haul very far. Without a contract for a term of three years on oil, one should, not go wild on the present high price of oil. First better set out an acre or so and grow your own roots. One acre of roots will plant from 20 to 40 acres. As the roots are the big expense the first year, after then if one wants to plant a large acreage, he is not taking any more risk than with most any or other crop. . Most roots have been selling at $1.25 a sack: It takes about 25 sacks to plant an acre. F. A. DOERFLER.- Farm Adviser First National Bank Salem, Dec. 1, 1923.

Alter routine business was disposed of Mrs. Richad Paul gave a report of her attendance at the state meeting of parent and teachers. She began with the opening and visualized to each listener the many addresses and discussions at which she was present, bring ing home to all. the points espe cially applicable to local conditions and presenting the high lights of the convention in a forceful man ner. Among other subjects for con sideration were the proper reading for children, the necessity for guarding against the unfit mag azines; that past presidents as well as every member of the P -T. A., should have some work to do; a trained social worker on the faculty of every high school; to read and support the P.-T. A. mag azine; the special message of the national president in her address being the necessity for education in obedience by force of habit rather than by force; a greater appreciation of our teachers; and an educational program to secure the passage of a proper free text book law for Oregon, saying we are one of only six states in the United States without such a law; also the necessity for a better fin ancial support of our state normal schools. Mrs. Raymond Criswell, local president, mentioned a few of the strong impressions received during her one cLay's attendance, espe cially the enthusiasm and ability shown by the delegates and speak ers: also emphasizing the point that our Parent-Teachers associa tion stand back of the appropria tion for our state normal schools. Mrs. Robert Griswold repotred for the hot lunch committee, say ing .the lunches are being served, meeting with a splendid response from both teachers and pupils, and that vegetables. -especially carrots. cabbage and canned tomatoes are needed.

This will be given in the Gem theater, the date to be announced later. ' The business meeting adjourned the president turning the meeting over to E. B. Watt, chairman of! the men's committee in charge of j the evening's entertainment. Ho announced the first number to be a quartette by the "Big Four" composed of It. I... Griswold, Ray-i mond Criswell. II. Mather Smith and Roy McDonald., with Dr. R. K. Howe at the piano. This was "Sweet and Low." too low to be heard, and correspondingly sweet. Following this, the "Luckia mute Quartette" composed of J. A. Reiber, R. K. Howe, A. L,. Barn hart and Albert Morgan, with Mrs. Reiber at the piano gave "The Hunt" in a very pleasing manner. They responded with an encore. Mr. Reiber introduced his fellow singers in witty play upon names. and Mr. Banhart retaliated by In-, troducing Mr. and Mrs. .Reiber. Prof. W- G. Beattie, head of the department of rural education at the .State Normal school, Mon mouth, was introduced by Mr. Wat' his subject being "The Com- muniiy. Yesterday. Today ami To morrow." Prof. Beattie took a few minutes to explain to those present the great Increase in en rollment at the normal school since the fall of 1920, when he! first became connected with it. The increase in enrollment lacks one of being four hundred per cent since 1920, while the increase In appropriations is less than ten per cent. He spoke briefly upon the work being done, urged those present to consider the needs of the normal schools, and gave a comparative statement of funds available for different state in stitutions of learning. By this showing the normal school Is re ceiving much" less In proportion to the enrollment than are the other educational centers of the state. Going on to the subject of the evening Prof. Beatie -sketched a vivid word picture of the com munity of yesterday, clustered 'round the little country school which served as a tenter for all community activities; coming on BRAND HAMS, BACON AND LARD - - -.

Among other good thoughts left with his listen ers Prof. Beattie stressed the bene fit of cooperation, advising the P.-T. A. to secure some federated committees to work in cleaning up trashy, literature; suggested that we teach not by precept but by example, not alone the example of the. parents, or of the teachers but the example of all the men and women of a community. He. also said that the community of the future is going to "fit the school .to the child, not the child to the school." Also, that long ago man conquered the face of the earth, then later we have conquer ed the materials of the earth and the energy of the earth, but man has not yet learned to control himself, and that now man must learn self control, saying we must teach the youth of today self knowledge, self reverence and self control. In summing up Prof. Beattie told us the community of today muse nave vision, must set up definite aims, must cooperate. must set individual examples not only to our own children but to every child in the community, and must provide for the physical, mental and spiritual advance of the child.

Puwbred Goats in Demand Fannie Branson recently ship ped two pure bred Toggenberg does to Haynes. Alaska, where they will be used to supply milk for a family residing up there. This is not the first experiment in sending goats north, and if they take kindly to the cold northern winters the problem of proper food for small children residing in the far north bids fair to be solved. These does are from the Hazel Dell herd, and are young stock raised there. To a point in Canada goes an other purebred Toggenberg doe to supply the demand of another fa mily for the well balanced food ration for children. Recently four yearling Toggen berg does, pure breds of the Branson's own raising, were ship ped to Harmony, Minn., where they will be added to the stock of a fancier there who knows the best and is willing to pay for it. .Another purebred Toggenberg doe is goinj; this week to an Illi nois customer who has read of the Hazel Dell stock and also wants the best.
