The supreme court of this state has just decided that when wheat is sold from a warehouse without authority of the depositors, the de positor may recover from the pur chasers. This case grew out of the shortage of 1 1 ,500 bushels of wheat in T. J. Black's warehouses at Hal sey and other points in Linn coun ty.

The meet with Pacific University, which was scheduled for May 10th, is off owing to the impossibility of agree ing on a list of events. Tha U of O boys being very anxious to meet the O A C track team, immediately opened negotiations looking to a contest. Their faculty, however, refused permission, because the Ga zette had been guilty of Les Ma jeste in dealing with the official act ions of one Burden at the lootbail game here last fall, and for the further reason that the students of O A C refused to say that the Ga zette's statements were untrue. The U of O athletes ire held in high esteem by the students of O A C and the citizens of Corvallis. We pity them for the burdens they have to bear; they should love us for the enemies we have made.

Tney say he is waxing fat and becoming rich and haughty, and while they admit that "the farmer feeds us all," they -asseverate that he wants to "take all we have for feeding us and .then does hot furnish what we want and are willing to pay for."

The Willamette Valley is the great source of supply for farm products for a vast and growing territory. Tacoma and Seattle and towns all the way north to Dawson look to the broad and fertile Willametie Valley for supplies, and Portland has to import poultry from Missouri, as well as salmon from the Sacra mento. This condition of things is to continue and be inteasified j during the coming years, andj the farmers of the Willamette Valley and their wives and daughters might as well realize the fact and devote more time and labor to raising poultry, fruit and potatoes, for they have the world for a market.
