"STUBBLE FIELDS" OF THE NORTHWEST ... i'i . .... A problem of considerable importance in Western Washing ton and Oregon has to do with what is called "the lumbermen's stubble field" tracts from which timber has ' been cut and . which, though desirable for agriculture, can be cleared of stumps only at a cost greater that the value of the land for agricultural purposes, and to this matter the forestry bureau is now turning its attention. Since the lumbermen harvested their wood crop those lands have remained unproductive, for fires have prevent ed forest reproduction. It has been suggested that a saving can be made in the cost of pulling the stumps if the stumps of Douglas fir are used by distillation for the production of turpentine, tar, charcoal and other products. There is no question that th fir stumps can be used in this way, but the saving affected, according to the ' ugh estimates which are alone possible under the circumstanoes, would hardly exceed from one-tenth to one-fifth of the cost of clearing at present, which ranges from $150 to $225 per acre. In a few cases, where the land was not so heavily timbered, the expense of clearing is a little less. It looks as if the lumberman's stubbleai.eld can fie brought economically under the plow only by the contrivance of some im proved method for handling the stumps, which are too large for the regulation stump pullet and are now removed by dynamite and the donkey engirre. may expect a blow, instead of being told "you're another." Now that the kaiser has invented a car brake, it's up to Teddy to invent some sort of a quick starter. His trouble-starter is a world-beater all right, but it is old. If precedent be followed, no man who is not an experienced traveler will have a look-in for the presidential nomination in tne future ; THIS DATE IN HISTORY GREAT VANDERBILT CUP RACE IS ON TOMORROW (Continued from page 1).

It would give the town a distinctive character and standing in the music world, and add to its attractions as a place f residence for the best class of peo pie. The editor of The Guard noticed in the last issue of "The Musical Courier" of New York an article descriptive of the an-" nual musical festival at Bangor, Maine, ocoupying several pages and acoompanied by views of the cfty in general. It wfls a splen did advertisement in line with what Bug en might expect if the festival is made a permanent institution, as ft is aev proposed to by. having it backed by a stock company. 'At first it may lack somewhat of being self-sustaining, but in due time it would grow to such proportions that it would in novise be a financial burden upon the stockholders. There should be no troM in teh securing of the necessary stock subscriptions. An exchange severely arraigns a Tennessee jury for kneeling in, prayer to determine whether or not the members had ren dered a just Verdiot. Although it is not stated jimt in what man ner the minds of the jury could be enlightened by their supplica tion to the divine power, still the supreme court of the state bold when the matter was taken before that august body-that the jury could pray if the members wanted to, and it would in no wise invalidate the verdict. But the exchange befort) quoted odjocis io tne wnole matter on the ground that.it reflects on the intelligence of the jurors. Our friend forgets that a juror is not supposed to know anything, and therefore it is nothing to his discredit. When he qualifeis for the job the man takes an oath that he knows notWng. Then why should anybody really object wnen ne only produces evidence that he,was telling the truth? " 6 We all know that Eugene is growing, but few of us realize the magnitude of building operations grjing on. One gentleman, ronew arrival here, tells The Guard that he counted sixty-seven dwellings in the course of construction during a walk last Sunday in that section of the city west of Willamette street and he is quite sure he did not see them all. And notwithstanding this re markable building activity, both in the business and residence districts, there is now apparently areator demand for dwell ing houses, store rooms and offices than ever before in the his tory of Eugene, AU of which goes to prove tlftt even a Western Oregon town is capable of getting busy, simply by waking upo a realisation of its possibilities. . F. Ilupkliison Smith Francis Hopklnson Smith, noted as an author, artist and engineer, was born In Baltimore. October 23. 1 X3S. He was educated as a mechanical en gineer and for some years was em ployed In the government service. Among his englneerlne works w:i the building of the Mace Rock light house off NoV London, Conn., nnd he construction of the foundation' for the Hartholdl Statue of Llliertv In New York harbor. Afler several years spent In engineering work he turned his attention to art and did much creditable work in water col ors, charcoal work and illustrations.

He has been awarded several medals, has been decorated by the Turlflsh sultan, nnd has received hon orary degrees from Yale nnd other leading universities in America. north and the new motor parkway on the south. The start and finish will be on the motor parkway several east of Mlneola and Garden City, the latter place being the headquarters of the Vanderbilt Cup Commission. The country In which the circuit is lo cated is generally level, there being a remarkable absence of hills even for Long Island.. The eleven miles of motor parkway is practically level, and from the grandstand there is an extended view of the cement park way part of the course. The grand stand in a permanent affair of steel ten times as large as the stands at former races.- All of the parkway Is fenced with strong steel wire fenclne ano parKing spaces for cars have been assigned along this stretch CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA MAY COME HEREA6AIN Manager Chas. Beach in Eugene Today in Interest of Or ; ganizing Festival Phtiiilaa Qaanh. n t r Am And mono ger of the Chicago Symphony or chestra, which appeared at the fes tival of music held at the Univer sity of Oregon In this city last April, arrived here last night to see what encouragement the peo ple of Eugene will give nlm to bring the orchestra here again next spring. He was in canference with leaders musical circles & gret'ar part of day and will leave for the north this evening. As a result or-the confer ence, there Is a pretty good under standing that a musical festival asso ciation will be incorporated here soon and the orchestra will probably be here some time In the latter rart of March. A meeting will probnbly be held soon tft arrant for Incorpor ation and further particulars wlil be given out later. The orchestra carries 65 people this season and will have the usual vocal soloists. In addition to the quartet of vocalists, Miss Myrtle Elvyn, a talented pianist, la. with the ui ijiicaii a. ants una iyjeui several years in Europe and is a beautiful player. .Mr. Beach Is also managing the Damrosch orchestra this season, tak ing that organization East while he brings the Chicago Symphony West.
