Agricultural College Car Will Make Demonstration Tour of State About April First. Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis, Feb. 27. Professor James Dryden, of the poultry department at the Oregon Agricultural College, is making plans for the poultry car which will be sent out Jointly by the Southern Pacific railroad and the Ex- t tension Division of the college to tour the state. "The college has been preaching for a long time," said Professor Drden, "from the text that Oregon should produce Its own poultry prod ucts. There is no other state which has so many natural advantages as are found in Oregon. It is simply up to the farmers and the poultry men to become active In this line in order that tens of thousands of dol lars which are sent out of this state every year may be kept at home. Ef forts should be made by the produc ers for bettering their stock and the condition in which It Is kept."

Miss Or lena Ruble, one of the oldest pioneer women of Lincoln county, died at her home here recently. Mrs. Ruble was born in Fayette county, Indiana, May 28, 1834. She removed with her parents to Berry county, Missouri, from which place the family started with oxteams on a six months' journey across the i plains to Oregon. After enduring all the hardships, trials and privations incident to that trip they finally reached a point three miles west of Salem, later removing to Eola, in the same county. In April, 1871, they removed again to the Alsea valley, in Benton county, where Sir. Ruble erected a sawmill and also a flouring mill, the first built in that valley. In the year 1879 they removed down to Alsea Bay, where Mr. Ruble homesteaded the tract of land where' now stands Waldport, of which they were the founders, and continued to reside there until the time of their deaths.
