Near Future
ORDERS AHEAD FOR YEAR
The Bandbn Woolen Mill wiil
close down in a week or so and re-
main closed for a couple ot wt eks
during which time a large amount
of new machinery will be installed,
among which will be a new steam
finishing machine, which will enable
the mill to do more work and finish
ud heavier goods.
Manager Bedillion stated that the
new machines would also enable
them to make heavy blankets, an
article lor w hich there is much de
mand. The mill is doing good
work now, but the demand for
finished product is growing so great
that it is necessary to have every
convenience possible.
Additions
to two of the spinning jacks will al
so be made, thus increasing the ca
pacity of the plant to a considerable
extent.
The woolen mill has sufficient
orders ahead now to keep it run
ning at full capacity for a year, and
only recently a letter was received
from a New York house tendering
an order that would keep the mill
running for two years, this order, of
course, hail to be turned down as
the Detroit firm, for which the mill
has been manufacturing ever since it
started up, will keep it going con-
stantly.
The Woolen Mill is an excellent
industry for Bandon and one to
which all our citizens point with
pi ide.

Langlois, Ore., Aug. 11, 1909—
Editor Bandon R ecorder ,
Dear Sir: - In your last issue you
stated that I came home from Port
land where I had been on business
in connection with the Port Orford
Orchatd Tracts. This is correct and
I have just received a letter front
the company and as so many people
are interested in that company I here
send you a copy of the letter, hop
ing you will publish it 'or the ben
efit of your many readers.
Portland, Ore, Aug. 6,1009—
Mr. O. P. Haagensen, Langlois.
Dear Sir: We write you at the
suggestion of Mr. Oldenberg, with
whom you are well acquainted rel-
ative to the silnation in connec-
tion with the Port Orford (Orchard
Tracts Co.
Our film, Donnell and Parberry,
has been appointed sales agents in
charge of the property by the new
lioard of directors. We are arrang
ing the new financial matters of the
company so as to have money suf
ncient to pay off the entire indebted
t ness on or before Sept 1- -5, in fact
with our present arrangements we
will have the money by the first of
September, but of course it will
take a few days to reich vour
country and pay off the entire in
debtedness.
What we want of you Mr. Haag
ensen is a little assistance at that
end. of the line.
We understand

Some local business men of Ban

that they are willing to sign a «'on

They also state that they will con

within a year’s time. All they ask
in compensation for their work is
five cents a ton for all freight that
goes over the bar and five cents a

further sta»e that whenever there
is less than twenty feet of water
they will not ask a cent. Tlrs is a
proposition that all shippers could
well afford to consider as it would

times of the year would wonder

Among last week's visitors to Ban
don was Professor E. D. Ressler of
Corvallis. He was in Coos county
to attend the annual teachers' in
stitute, in session this week at Co-
quille, and to represent the Oregon
Agricultural College, in which he
lias just taken charge of the new
course in industrial pedagogy.
During the past seven years, Mr.
Ressler was president ot lhe Oregon
State Normal school at Monmouth,
and in that capacity visited every
county in the state.
He is an en
thusiastic Oregonian, notwithstand
ing the fact that his school, together
with the other state normals, was
denied an appropriation by the last
Legislature. All the normal schools
will remain closed during the next
two years, when it is expected that
the Normal school question in Ore
gon will come up for final settlement.
In assuming his new position in
the Corvallis institution, Professor
Ress'cr continues in his chosen work
of training teachers. At the O. A
C., a part of his work will consist
in preparing students to teach tin-
special subjects of agriculture, man
ual training and domestic science in
the public schools. Industrial train
ing in the common schools is a
part of the "new education”, which
is rapidly gaining ground in the
United States.
Educators and
leaders in industra! anil social
niovemenis have come to u realiza- *
tion of the fact that the present
course of study in the elementary
high schools is sei iously deficient
in subject matter anil method.
The interests of the many children
who will be limited to the educa
tional advantages of the common
school, have been subordinated to
the interests of the few who are pre
paring for college and university.
The n-.-w education seeks to make
provision for practical industrial
Laming for the purpose of appealing
t<> the needs and interests of this
large majority, without in any way
weakening the course adapted to
the needs of the few.
Professor Ressler reports the pros
pects fine for another large increase
in tin- attendance of students at the
State Agricultural College next year. '
1351 was last year’s enrollment, a
gain ot nearfy twenty-five percent
over the previous year. Over 1500
will doubtless enroll during the com
ing year.
