' u ' - .'"' I ', For the next ten days. Mr. Foster will1 be operating In the farm districts in the neighbor hood of St. Paul and Minneapolis, where : he has found large groups of families who feel the lure of the Northwest and ire especially anxious to Investigate the oppor tunities to . carry on dairying where there are mild winters free from the long cold periods which they experience in the east. Further Impetus to the effect ive distribution of settlers upon their arrival was 'added by the hearty endorsement which this activity received at the semi-annual meeting of the state associa tion commercial organizations secretaries In Portland last week. The importance of obtaining the names of new settlers' old friends in the east was also stressed as of vital importance. No better source of names of '- prospective settlers can be obtained In the opinion of many of the secretar ies who find eastern people eager to come where old friends have preceded them. mm S ADVANCE TEACHING OF P1JUII0 15,000 Children Participate in. Competition at Detroit Recently A new method of stimulating interest in piano instruction was successfully inaugurated in the recent piano playing contest in Detroit. Some 15,000 students' in the local schools took part in' the contest and out of those there were chosen seven district win ners who participated In the fi nals. First prize, in the form of a grand piano and a trip to New York, went to Judith Sidorsky, a 14-year-old high school student.' The second prize winner, "William lleillich, a ten-year-old student. received not only the trip to New York but an added prize in the shape of a grand piano offered by an enthusiastic piano manufac turer In the audience. That the contest increased the amount of piano teaching In the city was shown by the fact that one, teacher had received 61 new pupils during the two months and. of those 58 had never before, had musical instruction. Another teacher had galned'85 pupils of whom 47 were beginners. The contest meant much to music In the home as shown by the pur chase of a second piano by one mother In order that her four daughters might freely practice for their entry in the contest. Besides the leading prizes there were awarded 17 scholarships and 260 rings attesting the re cipients' piano championship in the various schools. The contest was under the auspices of the De troit Music Trades association. Much credit is due to Frank J. Bayley, the president 'of the asso ciation, who inspired the Idea, and to Roy Maypole, chairman of the committee In charge. The piano contest idea Is spreading to other cities. 'Besides being developed in Chicago, it is under consideration In Milwaukee, Rochester and Los Angeles. FORESTS PROTECT WATEWSMIBS Storage of Water -Recognized Factor in Hydroelec tric Development ' ' Suggestions that may add to the r&lue of water power and water supply developments are made In a bulletin just issued by the for est service department of agricul ture, entitled "The Financial Lim itation fn the Protection of Reser voirs," by W. W. Ashe. It fs of interest to investors In water pow er and In municipal water supply securities as well as to managers of such properties and to engin eers. . Storage of water Is becoming a recognized factor In hydro-electric development, just as it is ne cessary in most cases for muni cipal supply. This bulletin shows that with storage there enters the problem of siltage through erosion of soil, an insidious agency which may cause loss of pondage and consequent reduction in the capac ity of reservoirs. The rapidity of erosion and of silting up of reservoirs is affected by different physical and meteor ological conditions in' the different regions of the United Stetas. Over the greater portion of northern and northwestern United States and in Canada erosion is not a seri ous problem, though east of the Cascades it is often an important Question. The bulletin calls at tention to the high silt burden of certain streams and the rapidity with which storage capacity of reservoirs is reduced. It is Bhown j'that it Is possible to ascertain the rate of silting and jfrom this to determine the-capital value cf the storage capacity, the loss of which might" be expected within a given period. It is "also possible to ' determine the extent io which excessive erosion may be checked by artificial means. Mr. Ashe proposes a formula for de termining how much money could be economically expended to maintain this capital value, which otherwise would be destroyed by siltage. He points out that .in case forests are artificially estab lished for the purpose of securing soil cover and reducing erosion a definite return can be expected from the investment therein, and that power end water companies are justified in making additional expenditures which would be with in the capitalized value o the storage capacity which will be pre served. Copies of the bulletin, which is Department Bulletin 1430-D, can be obtained from the forest ser vice, department of agriculture, Washington, D. C. SCHOOL CLUB ORGANIZES SILVERTON. Or., Nov. 12.
