Co-Operation for Pacific States.
Corvallis, Or., July 27. Wide
attention was attracted here this
afternoon by the article in this
morning's Oregonian, givrng the
purport of a resolution voted 6"n
at the recent meeting of the
Board of Regents of the Agricul
tural College, which resolution
had reference to Dr. Withycombe.
It called upon Dr. Withycombe
to withdraw from his candidacy
or resign his position and propos
ed that if he did neither within
ten davs his position as director
of the experiment station should
be declared vacant. Speaking
' this evening of the resolution,
Dr. Withycombe said:
"The statement in the article
,that the resolation was not a per
sonal matter is not correct. The
matter set forth in the resolution
is of a kind with many charac-

Think of a family of incubator
children, each baby in its own
castle and each receiving royal
care. They are such delicate,
frail, tiny little cherubs, that they
are not yet ready to begin their
struggle for existence. Then think
of the care and attention that
must be given them, of change
of linen, and especially swaddling
clothes, of the feeding and nurs
ing and medical attendance that
must be given them, and that
thinker will have an idea of the
Infant Incubators that forms one
of the most interesting and thor

Half a dozen skilled nurses, who
have been trained especially for
the incubator institution in Ber
lin and Paris, devote their time
and energy and care to these ba
bies, whiie Dr. M. A. Couney,
of Berlin, superintends and .di
rects the work.
To the spectators, the incuba
tor babies appear to lead an un
disturbed life behind the glass
doors of their castles, peacefully
sleeping upon the whitest of pil
lows, their infinitesimal hands
peeping out of doll sleeves, their
eyes looking only occasionally in
to an unknown world. The av
erage weight ot each is about two
and one-half pounds, but even
though they are so small they are
not so quiet as they look, and if

A well dressed stranger, giving
his name as Horn, on Wednesday
afternoon hired a team and
buggy at the feed barn in the
rear of the Russ House and up
to a late hour last evening he
had not returned the team nor
could his whereabouts be located.

man and team and are convinced

ing. The man acted in a pecu
liar maaner. He drove the team
to the depot and spent some time
in a saloon near there, later driv
ing into the country. At 9
o'clock Wednesday night he tele
phoned the barn that he was at
Granger and wag, on his way in
with the team. He failed to ap
pear and yesterday morning the
matter was placed in the hands
of the officers. Yesterday morn
ing a reDort reached the officers
that the man had been seen
earlier in the forenoon passing
through Independence, 'and it is
believed that he is making for
Portland where he will doubtless
try to sell the team.
The man is described as tall
and dark with a sandy mustache,
dressed in dark clothing. One
of the horses is a gray branded
"Y" on the left hip and bearing
a scar on the neck and . lelt tore

The actions of the fellow led the
officers to believe that he was
demented. Among other things
he told about town before leav

of one of the saloons of the city,
and other as improbable series
were told by him. Every city

So far this season we have
heard nothing to convey the idea
that all is not well with Benton
county's hop crop.
Speaking of the position of
Mr. Krebs on the hop situation
the Oregonian says editorily : In
the opinion of Mr. Conrad Krebs,
who has certainly taken great
pains'to inform himself upon the
subject, hops will be hops this
year, not only in Oregon, but
throughout the country and Eng
land. In this view he urges the
hopgrowers not to contract their
hops at present and congratulates
those who have the residue of the
crop' pf 1904 on hand and in
good condition. It may be hoped
that the estimate ot the shortened
yield of the Willamette Valley
hop yards that Mr. Krebs presents
will bs modified by the sys
tematic examination of conditions
that will be made at the instance
of the Hopgrowers' Association
early in August. The hop in
dustry has come to mean much,
net only to growers but to a large
laboring class in the state. Hop
money has come to mean many
little additions to the com
forts of life in farmhouses, a sub
stantial "lift" on the taxes, the
purchase of children's school
books, bits of finery for the girls
and good clothes for the boys in
many a farming district. Let
us hope that it will not be great

crop.

The child being too weak to have
a desire for food, a nasal spoon is
used, and the m'iik is drawn and
placed in a tali glass, which is
inruersed in a larger glass con
taining warm water. 1 his keeps
the milk at the proper tempera
ture. The nasal spoon and the
method of nasal feeding, is new
to America a revelation in fact. 1
The infant is out of danger when
it has strength to take at least 30
grains or one ounce of nourish
ment at a single feeding. Every
infant is weighed before and af
ter feeding to ascertain the amount
of nourishment taken, and a coir,-
plete record is kept of this, as of
all other details of the incubator
process. The air of the incuba
tors is kept at a uniform temper
ature by means of an automatic
contrivance, and fresh air is in
troduced through a large pipe
1 he air is punned by passing
through an anticeptic fluid, and j
then through, cotton, and it is;
warmed before it is permitted to
pass into the infant's aparfrent.
The most important consider
ation for a child prematurely born
is temperature. Consequently the
temperature of the incubator is
kept uniform and the automatic
contrivance used for this is so
perfectly reghlated that the tem
perature is always correct. More
over, a thermostat at the front oi
the incubator is a constact guide
as to the therinal'couditiou. Sta
tistics show that of premature 01
weakly born infants, under ordi
nary conditions, only 15 perceni
live; by means of the incubatois
85 per cent are saved. These art
