Profitable Institute.
The local institute which convened
here last Saturday was one of the
most profitable nnd interesting events
along the educational lino of the sea
son, from the tact that the teachers
all were on the common level and en
gaged In the same class of work so
they could exchaugo Ideas that would
be of some use to them. The theoretl
leal part that we hear at our annual
and state teachers' meetings are good
but not practical in the rural dis
tricts, hence not of as much import
ance as the local ones. Those pres
ent were; J. F, Nowlln, of Pendleton:
J. E. Cherry, of Adams; F. C .Salt, F.
K. Wells and wife. Geo. W. Maybee,
W. S. Mayberry, Mae IJttleton, Eliza
beth Hamer, Alice, Christian, Ada
Pierce, Pres. W. C. Howard, of Colum
bia college.
Will Improve His Farm.
J. W. Keene, who lives six miles

wire and hog fencing around ICO
acres of land and go Into the hog busi
ness on considerable scale. Mr. Keeno
Is a partisan of the Berkshire hog and
believes that a high grade of that
breed is the very best animal for
this country. Ho favors a high grade
rather than the thoroughbred, be
lieving that it matures younger on
the same amount of feed and In re
sponse to the same treatment other
wise than even a grade animal of any
other breed .
A citizen, who never had a good

tho dying man. "I thought so," re
turned the editor; "you'll see the
