KTOITT PAGES.
Oregon's particular pride, educa
tionally, Is her agrleultal college. This
la natural In view of the fact that
over 60 per cent of the people of Ore
gon depend directly upon the product
of the noil. It la natural, too. be
cause of the' achlevefcnU and prow
em of the college Itself. Founded at
Corvallis In 1867 as a private Institu
tion the college had at the mart a
merely local influence. Toduy, either
. through Its 2 BOO students or through
the agencies of Its extension divis
ion, it reaches every community In
Oregon, and through its scientific
agencies every civilized center in the
agricultural world. Starting wilh one
building and 35 acres of land, it now
utilizes over 30 buildings and 340
acres of land, all occupied and Improv.
ed to the limit of their capacity. Its
faculty alone now numbers more than
the entire college community of the
first decade, and Includes experts of
International as well an national repu
tation. Its departments are distin
guished both for their practical ser
vice to urgrlculture anj for their cre
ative contributions to science. Some
of Its departments, Indeed that of
horticulture, for example are unex
celled, either In equipment or organi
sation, by any in the country.

While the growth of the college has
been phenomenal (scarcely paralleled j
in the post five years by that of any
of the higher educational institutions
of the country). Its Industry and pro.
ducttvlty have been even more re
markable. It has been a pioneer In
Investigating many of the great agri
cultural problems, the solution of
which has added millions to the an
nual wealth of the country. The col
lege was one of the first to investigate

and to recommend for these evils .
methods of control that are universal-1
ly employed today. It was among tho t
first to Investigate experimentally!
methods of dry farming for arid lands
and to demonstrate successful meth
ods of culture. Its Influence and
teaching, moreove r, have been ron- i
stant In upholding the live stoik in-;

but have produced an egg-lnying ,

forestry services, while comparatively
new, have already won the confidence
and loyal co-operatlnn of the logging;
and lumber Interests of the Pacific
Northwest, as well as the hearty en
dorsement of the people. Controlled
by tho constructive anil far-sighted
policies of the school of forestry and
the state board of forestry, the tim

immense and inexhaustible source of
wealth, go will the mineral and geo

The show yesterday from the first
moment to the last was vastly su
perior to the first-day exhibition. It
started with a wild dash and event
followed event then with such rapid
ity that never an Instant was given
for breath catching until the grand
march of cowboys, cowgirls and In
dians and then the spectators Just sat
Lack and feasted their eyes upon a
sight that, for the lovers of the pic
turesque;, has no equal.- And when
the last of the gay troop of riders had
left the arena the stage . coaches
dashed upon the track and the pro
gram of excitement was on again to
finish at last In a wild climax when
forty range horses were brought In
front of the grandstand and forty rid
ers with forty helpers sought to hal
ter, snddc nnd ride them. It brought
the huge audience to Its feet and left
! It vibrating with excitement when the
second day's program was over.
Kl Steer In Pant lime.
Everything was better yeserday, but
the steer-roping and bulldogglng most
of all. The long horned brutes, while
thwarting the attempts of several of
the cowboys to conquer them, enjoyed
not near the triumph that they did
the first day and yesterday morning.
It took Ed McCarty just 27 seconds
to encircle the horns of one steer,
Jerk him from his feet and leave him
hog tied and helpless. It was a feat
performed almost In record time and
only the happening of the omprob
Able can keep McCarty from wearing
the crown of champion steer roper of
1913. In the bulldogglng, too, one
steer lost out In a hand to hand en
counter with man. So strong of neck
have the steers grown during the past
year that the cowboys have found It
next to Impossible to throw them
liaro handed. Lou Minor, broncho
busting champion of 1912, however,
w.s the first to show the requisite
strength and endurance. He swung
down upon the horns of his animal

Thus In more ways than can be en

distinction for Itself, and excited the
admiration of all loyal Oregoniuns.
Extension Nervlf.
In addition to the activities ' that
throng the campus and the college
plant during the student year, and that
continue the year-round In the col
lege laboratories and on the dem
onstration plats. there Is still another
field of effort which the college Is oc
cupying in a stimulating way. This
Is the field of extension. Through the
a battle lasting over two minutes, he
flopped the brute from its feet and
held it to the ground with nothing but
his teeth. Johnnie Dobbins brought
his animal to the earth as he swooped
down upon him and never permitted
him to rise. He however, was dis
qualified for the tripping of the ani
mal is barred by the rules. Jim Mas-
sey fought his steer for ten full min
utes and was finally hung upon the
atena fence in the steers last efforts
to free himself.
lsmjc Tom Winn New LureR
In the bucking contests of the after
noon, the horses showed up better
than the riders. While many of the
outlaws were ridden, only a few were
ridden In the most approved cowboy
style. In the main the buckarooes
showed a knowledge of the horses
they drew and a decided aversion
toward taking any unnecessary chanc
er. Long Tom added another throw
to his long list by ridding himself of
Ed McQllvray in three hard Jumps.
Hoot Gibson, champion all-around
cowboy of 1912, essayed to ride the
great little bucker Mrs. Wlggs, but he
did a skyrocket stunt Into the air and
down to earth.
Bearcat put up a great fight to un
seat Sam Brownell but all of his best
twists went for naught, Brownell
making a splendid showing. Speed
ball made his first appearance of the
year with L. E. Collins .up and after
a few spectacular plunges, It was U. E.
Collins down. Bob Cavin managed to
keep his seat on the equine Cyclone
while Henry Webb, Cheyenne cham
pion, was the master of Crooked River
from the first to the last Jump.
Skyrocket True to Name.
Guy Church made an excursion In
to the air on Skyrocket but fell to
earth with a dull thud. Roy Hunter,
who made such a heroic battle with
a steer Thursday, mounted Cyrus No
ble and gave a good exhibition of the
hurkaroo art. Hondsome Harry was
not equal to the Job of shaking Jess
Touo from his back and Onvlott had

he suddenly ceased his efforts but Just
before the pick-up men reached for
the halter, he commenced with such
a renewed energy that Matthews' hold
was shaken loose and he hit the dust.
Hally Plersol drew Sledgehammer
and that big animal, the meanest of
the whole lot, absolutely refused to
buck after fighting three men and a
snub horse for ten minutes during the
saddling operation. In justice to Pier
sol he was given another horse, Casey

Rett Cross Well Named.
Red Cross disposed of Sam Orison j
in Just a couple of Jumps and the
number of falls during the contest
were totaled at seven. The crowd
likes to see a cowboy tumble and yells
of approval met every fall. The
crowd also does not like to see a cow
girl thrown and here again, it was so
satlsfleld .that It yelled Itself hoarse,
for Nettle Hawn, Blanche McGaughey
and Haxel Walker all rodo their
mounts to the last Jump. Mrs. Hawn,
wife of Happy Jack, drew Rambling
Jlmmle and sent the spectators Into
voice by her splendid ride. But when
Blanche McGaughey rode straight up
on the vicious little Snake and fin
ished with both hands In the air. the
yelling swelled outward with Increas

when pretty little darkeyed Haxel
Walker mounted Brown Eyes and
fanned her clear across the arena and
then It rose again Into a roar.

also, he has a seven second lead for

Blakely, who mado a close race both
days. Kelly U third for the two days
now and has yet a chance to win the
event In which he has been twice the
victor.
Kerttiu IllanceU Has Lead.
Bertha Blancett again had things
her own way in the cowgirls' relay
race. Her superior strength and abil.
tty to make changes from one horse to
another as well as the fast Sherry
string which she Is riding, enabled her
to win the event again handily and.
unless some accident occurs to her to
day she will win the event for the
third consecutive year. Her total time
U 9.28 1-2 while that of Vera McGln

OUie Osborn on the Smith string Is
still behind that time.
Jason Stanley was another former
champion who made a gallant effort
to "eome back" yesterday. Winner
of the pony express in 1911 and 1912,
he finished last Thursday but yester
day took tho lead at the first and kept
It until tho last lap when he gave
way to Braden Gerklng, winner of
the first day race. Johnny Baldwin
was third, Fred Spain fourth ana
Frank Hogg fifth, the others not fin

Imftan Race Exciting.
The Indian races, always popular
with the crowd, were more exciting
than ever yesterday, the relay ride
being a whirlwind affair. The Indian

drew a great many admiring glances
and praises and was one of the best yet
presented at a Round-up.
The etageeoarh race was again at

the Spain team was the sufferer. At

keeps them forever hopeful and for
ever young. It is a thing of classes,
of clubs, of athletics, of contests.
! games, music, and dramatics: of skill.
and grace, and accomplishments. It
has to do with big assemblies of en

binders and brass bands; with gro
tesque processions of exuberant

dream; with delightful rehearsals; of
joint debates: with keen rivalries of
aspiring orators, and with all those

The College Spirit.
Put the college life Is not a thing
