Oregon can well afford to realise
more fully on Its Investment in the
Oregon Agricultural college. More
scientific farmers and fewer elec
tricians would be good tor agri
culture, and agriculture . Is the
greatest lasting resource of the
state. I am not thinking of the
graduates of the Oregon Agricul
tural college who are the sons of
owners of farm lands; I am think
ing of the young men who should
be running dairies, but for lack of
means are driven into something
that promises quick salaries. They
wind up In the cities, instead of on
the farm.

mt Pierce Is Speaker
That the Irrigate and drained
areas must feed the increasing eat
ing world, anff that brighter days
are ahead for the people who pro
duce mo tilings that the world
must eat and wear were the
tnoiignta emphasized by Governor
Pierce at the noon luncheon of
tne conference.
"The time Is Just around the
corner," said the governor. ''when
the whole country Is going to need
more foodstuffs. Twenty-four
years ago I predicted that the
time would come when this coun
try would consume 550,000,000
bushels of wheat. Last year we
consumed over 600,000,000 bush
els.
The governor omphaslzed the
significance of the "tremendous
increase In population every
year." He admitted that the state
had gone too far with Irrigation
with an insufficient demaud for
that development, but declared
the necessity (or drainage is with
out question.
"Underground tiling will ulti
mately be the thing all over the
Willamette valley,'' he said, "and
even far beyond the valley:"
Defend Baker Stand
The governor defended the
declaration he made to Secretary
Hubert Work of the department
of the Interior that he would not
vote to put state money Into the
Baker project, although he said
he had been severely censured
for his stand. The state could
not afford to do it, he said, be
cause there would be no interest
forthcoming on the money, while
the government would recolve a
return for its money.
The governor endorsed the
movement which took definite
shape today for a union of the
drainage association with the Ore
gon reclamation congress.
Because the proposed union be
tween the two organizations will
terminate the office ot Sam H.
Brown ot Marlon county as presi
dent of the drainage association,
the association remembered Mr.
Brown today by the gift of a cost
ly fountain pen. The gift was pre
ueuted by E. E. Chadwick, secr-j commerce. Senator Brown
tary of the Eugene chamber of jsponded with a neat speech.

THE ETERNAL MAN
We know that the real man
Is Indestructable, that he has
an existence independent of
the physical body, that the
body is merely the instrument
fashioned by some inscrutable
law of being to serve as his
means of earthly expression.
We know that sooner or later
It will be outgrown by the Im
mortal man, when a gentle
hand will loose It, allowing
him to slip from It like a but
terfly emerging from the chrys
alis. Sheba Hargreaves.

School Savings Develop
Habits of Thrift
In 1919-20 the first comprehensive statistics were avail
able showing progress made by school savings bank accounts.
Since then the number of schools with such departments
have increased 271.4 percent; enrollment in school savings
districts, 278.9 percent; participants 620.2 percent and de
posits, 506.1 percent.
In other words, there are 2,869,497 school children with
savings accounts who have deposited a total of $16,961,660.72
It's a fine thing to know the foreign languages, to know
all the dinosaurs, fossils, trees, flowers and fish by name,
to pal with Julius Caesar, Robin Hood.Lucrezia de Borgia,
Schopenhauer, Plato and the Man With the Iron Mask, but
it is also essential for a child in school to learn to save a lit
tle money.
Habits of thrift or extravagance are usually formed in
childhood and it is as essential to instill the producing and
saving idea in the mind of the child and young person as it
is to teach them habits of culture and religion.
The three million children who now have savings accounts
set a good example. There is less apt to be destructive labor
or political agitation in a nation with millions of savings ac
counts because a man with a cash capital is in a position to
better care for his family and secure the conveniences and
luxuries of life. Therefore, he does not spend his time envy
ing his neighbor and becoming dissatisfied with life.
The First National Bank believes that ideals of thrift and
the saving of a reasonable amount of one's earnings are prin
