Hume of the following facta Con

gleaned from Ir. J. T. Wood, genera
manager of the lakiina alley Con

Ore. Dr. Wood liaa Uen to Twin

tunate enough to secure three KO-acre

milk factory of which he i the
general manager and a some of the
eople in thia locality are interested
in that businesM, what ho hit to say

;!(),( HKJ pound of milk per day
During tho months of June and July
they pay almut $1.25 ir hundred for
four ier cent milk, which is the
bun in on which they figure. They
claim that this gives the farmer his
regular price for the cream at the
creamery and allows him about liO
.cents per hundred for his skimmed
milk.
Prices of milk vary, of course, with
tho season tho same as other estab
lishments of tho samo kind. Ex
perience has shown that where con
densers have been established the
.country adjoining tho factory has
been very pronperoUH.
lo cited Washington county, Ore
gon, as an exumplo, showing how pros
perous the country had grown. That
county has been tho most thoroughly
developed of any in tho state
Aud nearly till the land has been divid
ed into 20 aero tracts.
The farmers are all well-to-do and
independent through tho sale of milk
to tho factory, Thero is another
loaturo about the business, according
to Dr. Wood and that is the feed on
which the cows aro leu. Jle says
that it makes a great deal of dif
forence the kind of feed the en ttlo eat,
where the milk is used in a coiidensery.
Thero must not be the least un
natural odor or tasto to the milk,
therefore ho said he did not know
just whether tho alfalfa fed cows
would produce milk that could be
used in a condonsery or not, but that
could easily be determined by
making inguiry of the government
experimental station.
lie stated that the best feed that
has been found to his knowledge, is
the oat hay mixed with clover or a
kind of pea vine which grows very
extensively in the Willamette valloy.
Lately tho agriculturists are inducing
what they call thousand headed kale
which is proving to bo very beneficial.

Thi is the week for final examin

time from grading papers, etc., with
tho usual preparation for the annual
commencement next there is a good
al of stir in the building and
about tho grounds.
The Greek Drama l'yginaleon and

tion of Miss Tuthill this promises to
bo an unusually good presentation
Last week the Vespertine and

afternoon siesta on the banks of the

College at Morningside Heights.
He also visited a number of tho best
normals while en route and after
making a comparative, close study
of their methods and plans says he

teachers and students, read the etory
in last Sundays Uregonian. "I he.
Night Eugene Went Wild with Joy."
Following are extracts from Miss
Van Waters' story:
'.'The etruKule began when the
University of Oregon discovered that
its appropriation was not enough to
pay running expenses, liy the ena ot
1906 the university found itself in a
precarious condition. Attenuanco
had increased 23 per cent over the
year before, the university was growing
rapidly in popular favor, her students
were achieving intellectual ana
athletic honors, yet there were not
funds enough in the treasury to main
