COMMENCEMENT. Wednesday of last week mark ed another . commencement, another year of life for the Ore Kqn Agricultural, College. - To the people of this little city the closing exercises are, and have ever been, of utmost importance.' But we are not alone in our' feel ing of pride m the achievement of this institution the same in terest is felt by parents through out the state. Students come hereby hundreds from all over Oregon and there naturally must exist between Corvallis and other sections of the state a bond stronger than many of us im agine. Let us see to it that this bond grows still stronger. A few days ago President Gatch conferred degrees upon sixty-six young men and women and the majority of them go forth to hegin the battle of life. Let us hope that they wage a vic torious war against the innumer able trials which in the nature of things they must encounter. So far as educational qualifications go are they not well equipped to do their part, whatever it may be? Yes and no. The degrees which President Gatch conferred stood for so much elementary work, preparatory if you will, to greater things. The degrees sig nified that this class had com pleted a course of study to the satisfaction of President Gatch and his associate instructors at OAC, but of the future and its possibilities the degrees do not deal very largely. This is a mat ter lying almost wholly within each individual graduate. No one knows this better than Pres ident Gatch, who conferred the degrees. The growth of the college of recent years has been little short of phenomenal. Not so long ago we are plea ed to remember we were proud when OAC had a graduating class half the size of that of last Wednesday. Such .was, in fact, the case when Presi dent Gatch came to preside over the destinies of our great college. To him much praise is due and it should be a pleasure to him to re view the situation and see that at the close of long years as a public instructor, clear until the very last, there has been a steady growth at the school. Now at the close of so many years of active work he can let go the reigns of OAC's destiny without regrets; he has the satisfaction of knowing that his work will speak for itself and must bear fruit for years to come in city homes and by farm firesides. In closing it may not be out of place to state that President Kerr, president-elect of OAC, is expected to arrive in Corvallis this week from Utah. He is a man in the prime of life and splendidly equipDed in every way to assume the duties and re sponsibilities which must neces sarily have weighed heavily upon President Gatch in his declining years. Dr. Kerr will find a large field of usefulness before him great opportunities and we believe he is the man who will prove equal to the position. His work for the parents of the State of .Oregon it is not for any cliqua or special interest therefore, let us make it possi ble so far as lies in our individ ual power for him to promote the growth of the college and by the means of education on the broader plan assist in the en lightenment of the youth of the land to the end that we may have a better and purer citizenship. MAKES ROOT WEARY. Theperaistency of the Japa nese in calling the attention of governmental authorities to every little incident which the Japs erastrued as an indignity has at last wearied SecptaryxRooV To shovii how 'petty',-WKi-;JBome f the allegerj ! grievances; 'of the Japanese it -HfflJy necessary to state that "" not long ago some small boys in Berkeley, Califor- rfniarbroke few: panes mo glass in a Japanese, green house and the embassador of the Mikado, Viscount Aoki, saw-fitto call at tention of Secretary ; ftoot to the matter. : ; - From what is learned " of the meeting between the representa tives of the two, nations.; is very apparent,, that Secretary Root plainly showed, that Jie; has be- i . 1 come -weaned! witn u so many childish complaints and so indi cated to the Embassador. . It is a matter of conjecture 'whether : Viscount Aoki has acted for his government in these trifling mat ters or assumed the 1 initiative upon his own responsibility. .. In either, case it is bad enough, but slightly, more aggravating if he is backed by his government.; . The Japanese, individually or as a nation, should bear in mind that in the vicinity of San Fran cisco unusual and abnormal con ditions prevail on account of la bor disturbances.' For a year or more the lives of . American-born men and women who resided in San Francisco : have, been none to safe. It has been the same regarding their property.: The Japanese know this and should make allowances. : : Every time they aggravate our 'federal auth orjties with magnified and 'per verted views of their grievances they lower themselves in the es timation of our people and do their cause no good. As a nation we shall deal justly with all and the Japanese have but to use a fair amount of forbearance ,and await results with the assurance that they will receive such treat ment as is guaranteed them by treaty.

Space will be provided for the seating of 7,000 visitors under the big canvass' : The soloists have not been se cured but the chairman of - the music committee, Charles E.

Miss Beta Price of Portland, formerly ! of Corvallis, who, for the pact two or j three weeksj has been quite ill at St. ! Vincent's hospital is improving. About six monthB ago Miss Price noticed that her health was failing but not until three j months ago was it thought to be at all serious, aince that time she has con sulted eight or ten of Portland's" best physicians, but the cause of the trouble was not located until abjut three weeks ago when she consulted the noted Dr. E. E. Cable. He at once informed her of the trouble and advised; an operation. Drs. Cable and Soencer performed the operation on the 31st of May, and it is entirely successful. Cerebro-spinal meningitis is tbe dis ease which has recently caused the dea'h o fa lar?e number of horses at Sumptir, This is th declaration made by Dc. C J. Korinek, of Salem,' who was sent to isumpter Dy Vrovernor Uhamoeriam in response to an appeal from the mayor of Sumpter, He says there is no doubt as to the identity of the disease. About half the horses attacked by the disease have died. Thus far it seems to be con fined to : Sumpter valley. The horses afflicted lose control of their muscles for a time; fall down, and in the worst cases suffer paralysis and finally die. The cause of the disease is uncertain, but Dr. Korinek believes it to be due either to the water or bats. Range horses have not been afflicted.

The handling of milk the first few hours after it has come from the cow has a great influence on its quality and the commercial Talne ef tne products made from It The care of milk seem Pjrntter.ut better Biett to U WV VI LUC lUiyUS' ! , .5 n.nJ.Zt "American dalrvtnir. .

"Then follows the selling of cream to the creamery and, lastly, butter to the store trade as one can catch the mar ket . There seems to be a constantly increasing demand for the products of the dairy which keeps pace with the Increase of cows. There Is a bright prospect ahead for all who wish to en gage in this great branch of agricul ture. S. F.. Emerson. Where the Expense Comes In. Professor W. J. Fmser of the Illinois College of Agriculture says. "It is what the farmer does not know about his cows that hurts." If he knew how ex pensive it is to keep a poor cow, he would not do it. Twenty-five good cows will earn more uet than a hun dred moderately good cows and 'more than 1,000 poor cows. The poor cows will not pay their way. In one case the cows will keep the farmer: in the other the farmer will keep the cows. The Milking Machine. The Farmers Advocate says: "We did not believe in the efficiency of the igtlung machine until we saw one at ,rk.. Now that we have been shown we cannot say too much in its favor. There are milking machines and milk ing machines, so be careful what you buy when you are approached by a smooth tongued milking machine sales man. So far as we know, there is only one or two approved makes of milking machines. Better go slow in the pur chase of a machine and be sure you get a good one." Culling the Herd. It is the constant aim of progressive dairymen to improve their herds, and such improvement must depend largely upon culling the herd and getting rid of the unprofitable animals. Keep Out the Bacteria. The most careful handling of milk after it is once infected with bacteria will not suffice to make a good product from it. The bacteria must not be al lowed to gain ingress if clean, whole some products are desired. Thorough washing with boiling water, or, better, live steam, followed by rapid cooling and subsequent exposure to the direct rays of the sun, is the only sanitary way of handling the dah-y's utensils. Wall Paper and the Sick. "I am glad the walls of my bed room are not papered," said the in valid. "Nobody but the sick knows how nerve racking it is to lie all day long looking at the wall paper that doesn t match. It matches well enough, you understand, for people who are well. They never would notice where the flowers fail ed to hitch or the stems met too far down the fraction of an inch, but we notice it and worry over it and cry sometimes because it worries us so. My wall is painted light blue, the color of the skies. It doesn't hurt my eyes at all to look at it. It doesn't worry me. When the cur tain is down it is the very softest kind of blue, so gratifying that I fall asleep looking at it. Oh, yes ; the only thing to do with the walls of the sickroom is to paint them light blue." New York Press. " New York's Extra Bachelors.
