It la extremely unfortunate that
nioat cases of tuberculoids develop In
the homea of the poor or middle
classes. It U unfortunate tliat this
disease should be visited upon any
one, but "e say more unfortunate
that It should attack fa ml Ilea who
are financially unable to provide the
proper treatment to aid In recovery.
The provision of an asylum for the
treatment of this disease is the best
possible, advertisement for a country,
for "In time of peace la the time to
prepare for war." Does a great
army imply that our country la one
of warfare? What manner of man Is
he whose heart would not grow sore
at the neglect of a sufferer from
tuberculosis, all because the funds
for procuring remedial treatment are
not In sight? Would you withhold a
few paltry dollars for the sake of
what people might think of our coun
try In the extremity of hopeless and
forsaken sufferers? It cannot be
classed In the columns with charity,
for It is our duty, one thing more
than another, to care for the suffer
Ing about us. another to provide
against and prevent the spread of a
disease which may Invade our own
home. The establishment of such an
Institution Is one of the urgent de
mands on society at this time.

What Papers Do
You Read
H. B. Geer tells of a farmer who once said: "I don't
believe in your book learning, study and all that; I'd
rather learn by experience." He did. That man a
couple of years later lost out as a farmer and moved
to town, where ha made a very poor living working
by the day and doubtless working for men who stud
ied and read and thought about their business, and
applied in it, as far as practicable, that which they
had learned from books, periodicals and the experi
ence of others given therein. It is the men who read;
the men who study; the thoughtful men who support
the farm journals. ; They are the men who read books
and papers on agriculture, fruitgrowing, poultry cult
ure and bee-keeping. They are the men who stand
in the front rank; the leaders in their respective com
munities. These men have found that it pays to
read and study on any subject in which they are in
terested and apply their knowledge in their everyday,
work.

The "Lane county plan" for coun

was explained in the September
number of the .University of Oregon
Bulletin, has aroused a great deal of
viating the necessity of sending chil
dren away from home to school if
their education is to continue above
the eighth grade. One of its many
great advantages is the large bodies
of valuable land, timber and other,
owned by non-residents and corpora

taxation for school purposes, will bt
