Louis Anderson, Agricultural Club President, Enthused
New LI no of Instruction.
Over
That establishing the high school
course in agriculture is already pro
ducing good results in that It has era
bued students with a desire to see a
higher grade of farming prevail here
is shown by the installation address
of Louis Anderson. Jr., president of
the agricultural club. The address in
full is as follows:
Club Members and Friends:
Pendleton has placed herself on
Pendleton has placed herself In a
conspicuous place by the adoption of
an agricultural course, and other
schools are watching for the success
of the local course before adopting a
similar one. The course here has
passed the experimental stage and is
proving a success under our present
instructor. There are now enroned
in the course about twenty-five stu
dents, really more than can be ac
commodated in i"jr antiquated build
ing, and it is gratifying to know that
practically all the students who are
not enrolled in the course are actively
boosting for it. '
With the organization club the
high school is gaining more promi
nence throughout the state. It was
not until recently that colleges could
or would support a club of this kind,
but we hope to demonstrate that such
an organization can be conducted by
what Is ordinarily termed the second
ary schools.
The Ashland high school has adopt
ed a horticultural course. The city
of Ashland has still further boosted
this course by purchasing a tract of
land adjoining the city for the carry
ing out of experimental work by the
students.
The city of Pendleton should adopt
similar measures and procure a farm
for experimental purposes near the
"high school. It has been proposed
that the class use a part of the poor
farm for the purposes of experimen
tation, but the main objection to this
plan Is the distance of the farm from
the school. It is my firm belief that
the class could carry out many ex
periments there and conclusively dem
onstrate to the public that other crops
besides wheat could grow on the
farms of Umatilla county.
Would it not fully repay us for our
hard work and sacrifice if in time
we could see all these large farms
broken up into smaller ones and pro
ducing three or four times as much
per acre as they do now?
Agricultural experts tell us that
this Is an ideal section of the coun
try to carry out experiments in sci
entific farming. So why should not
the agricultural club and class have
the hearty cooperation of every citi
zen of Pendleton and of this part of
Umatilla county to make both enter
prises more of a success. If this bo
nanza farming question is ever solv
ed, undoubtedly it must be sved by
education, and this is primarily tne
function of this organization.
Throughout many sections of the
United States it has been shown that
by scientific faj-ming the yield per
acre, without additional expense to
the producer, can be greatly increas
ed. Jerry C. Moore of South Carolina,
a boy still in high school, took ordi
nary land which had been yielding
from thirty-five to forty bushels of
corn per acre and by approved sci
entific methods produced two hun
dred and twenty-seven bushels per
acre. He is called the champion corn
grower of the world. Steve Henry of
Louisiana raised one hundred and
thirty-nine bushels per acre at a cost
of thirteen and a half cents per bush
el. This Ls the first time that the pres
ent officers of the club have engaged
in such an undertaking as directing
an agricultural club, but with the co
operation of the club members and
the citizens of Pendleton we can
make a success of both the agricul
tural club and class. And with our
success as a guide it will be but a
short time until similar plans are ta
ken up by all the secondary schools
of Oregon and probably Washington.
