PB INDUSTTIY Tiiirn ii IHUlLU, I IS innnDiiDF .uuljuuiii. Farmers may Plant 200 or More Acres In Place of Strawberries WOODBURN. Feb. 1 Possibil ities of a new Industry, that of raising green peas for market, for this section of the country were voiced Tuesday afternoon when a large number of fanners attended a meeting held in the Woodburn armory. The meeting was under the auspices of the Woodburn Co operative Fruit Growers' association. Mr. Binn, manager of the Farmers Produce company of Portland, outlined the plans and workings of the project The Idea is that fresh green peas, for im mediate marketing, will be raised In this section of the country. The peas would be shipped to eastern markets In refrigerator cars. In this vicinity the peas ripen soon after the crop In The Dalles is fin ished and before the Washington peas mature. The peas would be planted in February and market ed In June. Although admitting that the proposition as it stands now is purely a gamble, and not urging anyone to go Into the business very heavily, the outlined plan shows that the growers could ex pect about three cents per pound on the peas. It is figured that from two to five tons could be raised on an acre of ground. The cost of putting In an acre of peas, not taking labor into account, is about $30. The Alderman tele phone pea is said to be the best variety for this purpose. Upland ground Is much better for raising peas, according to Binn. In order to give the plan a thorough test. It Is the contention that 200 acres should be planted. Eugene Courtney of Woodburn spoke briefly, saying that it Is ad mittedly a gamble, but declared that as long as the strawberry crop Is virtually gone and farmers have plenty of land, it might be advisable to experiment. Ray Glatt, secretary of the association, H. F. Butterfleld, a local farmer, and Ronald Jones of Brooks, a successful truck gardener In that section, gave brief talks. It was decided that another meeting shall be held Saturday afternoon at the same place at 1:30 p. m. to ascertain definitely whether the plan can be tried. Probably growers will sign up their acreages at that time. the Brush, College Sunday school, received a standard Bible attrac tively bound la leather as a prise for getting the greatest number to attend a special service at the First Christian church In Salem.

Forbes, faculty member of the Oregon Normal school, presented statistics relative to th county unit system of school education. This system, said Dr. Forbes, or iginated 20 years ago, being first csed In Colorado, where it has been continuously In use since. Maryland, Ohio and Montana also have used it, and where this sys tem prevails the cost per pupil has decreased. In Oregon the system seems most attractive in counties where the average of pupils and taxable property varies most. In these counties decreases in cost of In struction were noted as follows: Crook, $24 per pupil; Klamath, $25 per pupil; Lincoln, $26 per pupil. Since some districts are rich in taxable property and others are not, objections to the county unit system are, first, that some dis tricts will have Increased taxes, even though the general cost is lowered; second, that In certain Individual districts a protest will arise against having no direct control over hiring and firing. Under the plan each county may have three kinds of districts, according to enumeration: Those having 100 children of school age; those having 500 such children, and third, smaller districts which are grouped into one. Such a unit would have five geographical di visions, each with a director. these five to constitute the gov erning county school board. HONOR ROLL LISTED AT Hill MM NORTH SANTIAM, Feb. 1.
