occur in thi3 city on Friday, Dec

plan to have Dr. William Rader
deliver the last lecture of this
coruse, but owing to throat
i rouble, be was compelled to cancel
all his dates in Oregon. In his
place has been substituted J. W
Lundav of Los Aneeles. Mr. Lun-
day is a lecturer of wide reputation
He is red-headed, witty and posess-
es that eloquence that charms and
fires his audience witn entnusiasm
The Los Angeles Times has this to
say of him: "In sagacious sayings,
burmne thoughts, witty exnres
sions, he stands side by side with
such lecturers as Burdette, Taylor,
Bover and Elv Perkins." It is be
yond question that this will be the

gans, and three in completing the
partly finished buggies and heavy
wagons on hand when the present
company toon charge. Aireaay
thirty rigs have been disposed ot
and about as many more are re
ceiving the finishing touches. Be
sides these, fifteen heavy wagons
are in' course of construction. AH
the parts for these vehicles are
made in the local factory except
the iron work. The intention is to
continue the manufacture of bug
gies and wagons should the demand
lustily, and present indications are
favorable. However, special atten

The Farmers' Short Course a
the O A C will open January

only for farmers and farmers'
boys. There will be four weeks
of lectures and practical demon
strations of many things that re
late to the farm.
Under the head of "Animal
Husbandry" will be discussed
such subjects as pertain to farm
animals; the most common disr
eases of such animals: the
principals of feeding and diges
tion. In fact, all matters relat
ing to farm animals will be dis
cussed.
The continuous cropping of
wheat, loss of fertility of Oregon

date creamery accounting will be
given. Also lectures on various
phases of the subject.
Horticulture, bacteriology, in
sect pests and plant diseases, the
vegetable and flower garden.
will all be subjects ot discussion
during this course and no farmer
can afford to miss this opportu
nity for acquiring . knowledj
that will aid him in his future
efforts.
Irrigation in Oregon.
H. L. Holgate, whose home is
in this city, but who is now em
ployed in the census department
at Washington, D. C. , com
mented recently through the Eu
gene Register on a letter written
by Consul H. B. Miller .on the
subject of irrigation. Mr. Hoi
gate says, in" part:
The money expended in Ore
gon in building irrigation canals
and ditches amounts to a much
larger sum than is generally sup
posed, but there has been no
general plan followed and the
methods of distribution are com
paratively crude. As yet,' con
tests over water-rights ' have
been few, but as the practice of
irrigation increases ana water be
comes more valuable, disputes
between conflicting interests will
make business for many lawyers.
unless the state itself takes
charge of the water supply after
the manner of Wyoming, whose
law on the subject is 'a model of
simplicity and effectiveness.
Millions of dollars have been
expended in CaliforHiaon water
right litigation.
The subject of irrigation will
some time interest ; Willamette
Valley, notwithstanding its heavy
winter rainfall. As the popula
tion increases and markets de
velop, the valley will be dotted
with truck farms. ' the quality
and yield ot whose products can
be increased by summer irriga
tion. Even now a number of
thrifty farmers find the artificial
application ol water profitable in
the growing of onions and other
vegetables, and smaller fruits.
Mr. Miller is a far-seeing and
very practical gentleman. His
uccessful efforts- in behalf of
horticultural Oregon are well
known and doubtless his letter
will awaken a more general in
terest in the subject of irrigation.
The law makers of Oregon can
do the state no greater -service
than in providing clear and cer
tain laws for the equitable con
trol and distribution of waters
usable for power, mining and ir
rigation. A Newcomer's Opinion.
We reprint the following from
letter written to the Lyons,
Neb., Sun, by N. P. Peterson,
of this city, under date of No
vember is, iqoi:
We - came here 0:4 a six
months' probation, but we may
invest before that all the hills
you saw are now perfectly green.
Grass where allowed to grow is 6
to 8 inches tall. Weather the
finest we ever saw, no frost and
climate seems perfect. The
rainy season has not commenced
yet, but we expect some very
rainy weather for the next three
months and perhaps a little snow
for a half day or so at a time.
We looked at a farm of 132 acres
a few days ago my w.'fe wants
to buy it :one mile from town,
across the Willamette river; $22.
50 per acre, 85 acres in cultiva
tion and 48 in pasture and big
timber. This is a very produc
tive farm, on main road and but
300 feet from the river. Part of
the land is clay and part sandy
loam.. It is now owned by a
man from Ca: s county, Nebraska,
who . came here thirteen years
ago with nothing, but poor
health. He now owns other
property besides this farm. ' He
is over 80 years of.age.

ther information I will answer
them to the best - of m y ability
and send them a pamphlet o.
