THE COBMUIS GAZETTE, TUESDAY, M 1UH 1S01. WEN AND NOW. The Albany Democrat, in itslthe Willamette valley usual narrow and bigoted fashion, is making a great ado over the fact that the judges of the recent inter collegiate oratorical contest decided that Minchin was entitled to the gold medal in that event. It says that Sherman Wallace was entitled to the medal, "re gardless of plagiarism, his, oration and delivery being head j and shoulders above Minchin." A few years ago a similar contest was held at Albany in which one A. W. Wright, of that city, was awarded first honors, and Wallace took second place. The public was almost a unit in saying that Wallace was entitled to the medal at that time, but it memory j serves us right, the Democrat did j not clamor against the decision of the judges. Commenting on the attitude of the Albany papers the Oregonian says: "Considerable agitation is re ported from Albany over the dis covery that Elwood Minchin, who recently won the state ora torical contest on behalf of Pa cific College, Newberg, had pre pared himself for the oration on Wendell Phillips by reading, and that irom at least one book he had taken ideas and even words, While plagarism, of course, is a crime of peculiar turpitude, the deleated colleges that hope now to take from young Minchin the honor they failed to win from mm in open contest run great risk of making much ado about nothing. The amount of knowl edge possessed by a 17-year-old boy on the subject of Wendell Phillips, or any -of the subjects custom imposes for collegiate orations, cannot be extensive or profound, and if he has found books that helped him and used their contents effectively, this fact Itself is not enough to condemn him as unworthy to wear the cov eted honor. Surely it is not ex pected that a youth of his tender years will bring to history and economics any great amount of new thought or original investv gation. There is very little orl ginal thinking in this pretentious World." It is just as well to be correct in our statement of facts, bV j Among recent dispatcnes was one stating that the superintend ent of the Dubaque division of the Chicago Great Western Rail road Company has issued an or der whioh prohibits the employes of that road "from entering sa loons or using liquor, whether on or off duty, and the penalty far violation of this rule is imme diate discharge of. the offender." Commenting editorially on this matter, the Oregonian says: "A railroad exacts and seoures total abstinence in its ampleyes only so long as they are on duty.' No railroad company dogs its em ployes to their homes to discover whether they are always total abstainers from wine or beer at their family dinner or during their home life." Summer Fallow is Wrong. During the Farmers' Institute, which closed a two-days' session at Sheridan last Friday night, Dr. James Withycombe, in dis cussing "Conservation of Soil Fertility," said in part: "The single-crop system not only depletes the soil of plant food, hut changes its mechanical condition. The soil becomes compacted, owing to the loss f nnmus. Humus has two great functions first it keeps the soil loose, giving it warmth early in the season, and greater Bioistiire holding capacity later; second,, it furnishes nitrogen, the most val uable plant-food element. Our soils have been robbed f humus by the one-crop sjstem, but re storation can be made by the growing of leguminous crops, which besides increasing the amount of humus, add to tho plant food in the soil by trans formation ot atmospheric nitro gen in a form ava : ible for grow ing plants. "The summer fallow is expen sive, wasteful and entirely wrong in principle in a humid climate such as we have in the Willam ette vdley. In enii-a:id re gions it is not so bad, since there is little loss by leaching. About five times as much nitrogen is liberated by the summer fallow as the following wheat crop can utilize, When the winter rains come on, this excess of nitrogen is leached out of the soil and carried away by the streams. The amount of nitrogen which in this manner has gone down the Willamette river is prebably equal in value to the total pro ductisn of wheat during the time this crop has been grown in ' 'T! rOk rf til mmmai1 f1 low, the following treatment Is recommended: Plow early in spring, and Sow to rape early in May, Replow and sow to wheat early in the fall. The next Feb ruary sow on the fall wheat red clover to the amount of eight pounds to the acre, with about 5 pounds ot land plaste Allow the clover to stand two years; then break up and sow to fall oats or wheat. It is essential for the best results in the pro duction of clover to sew the land plaster not later than the first of April." Acid Soils. Prof. A. L. Kniself, chemist at the O A C Experiment Sta tion, has just issued a circular bulletin concerning acid soils of the state. ' This balletin cart ; be obtained bv applying to the college. The eircular contains directions which will enable any farmer to make ex-' periments for himself. Among other important items, the fol lowing facts are set forth: In seme sections of the coun try crops fail without any appar ent cause. Injurious conditions of the soil or climate exist and cause these failures. It is with the idea of sifting out one or more of these injur ious caases or conditions that this circular bulletin is issued. Recent investigations have shown that one of the most im portant causes of the failure f the clover crop is that the soil has become sour or acid. Clover will not thrive on acid soil. The beet plant is also very sensitive to acidity and will not thrive on sour or acid soil, but when the acidity ef the soil has been cor. rected or done away with then clover beets, etc., will thrive once more. The potato plant on the other hand, seems well adapted to add soils, and when gr&wn a saeh soils the tubers are smoother and of better qnality than when grown on soils that are not sour. The station wishes to deter mine the extent of the acidity of Oregon soils, and, ih earrying out this investigation, the intel ligent farmer can be of great as sistance to it; in fact he can make the tests lor acid soils on his farm and then report the re sults to the Experiment Station. The Future of the Valley. A recent visitor to the Wil lamette valley wrote to his home paper in Eastern Washington that he saw no reason why the towns and cities of the Willam ette valley should ever be any larger than they now are. As they depend upon the farming community and country is all settled up he saw no hope for farther growth. This was not written in an unfriendly spirit, but the writer failed to grasp the situation. The value of the agricultural production of the Willamette valley will probably be quadrupled within a genera tion. Under proper develop ment this valley with its adja cent foothills is capable of pro ducing in the same year more batter, eggs and poultry than are produced in the whole Pacific Northwest; more wool than is now grown in all Oregon; more hops than the total present but put of the United States; enough potatoes to feed everybody in the United States west of the Rocky Mountains; more mohair than the present production of the United States, and enough wheat to supply the home de mands of Oregon and Washing ton, besides avast quantity of fruit, hay, oats, onions, garden vegetables, etc. It will proba bly be a long time before the agricultural and other resources of the Willamette valley are fully developed, but long before that is accomplished there will be more than one large city in 1 a 1.1 taear su kvA Every him of Torturing Bisfiguriag Skin and Sca'p Humors Cured by Speedt Coll Treatment.
