Fewer Students of Agriculture.
A REFLECTION of the unprosperous conditions that
agriculturo has faced in recent years and one of its
striking effects is a general decrease throughout the
United States of the number of students taking agricul
tural courses in the colleges. In order to ascertain the
extent of this trend the Christian Science Monitor has
had a survey made by a professor of agriculture. Its
results show that 2500 lower students are enrolled lor
agricultural courses in agricultural colleges now than
were enrolled m 1914.
The total enrollment for four-year agricultural
courses in 49 schools in 1914 was 14,401. In 1920 it was
13,647. In 1924 it was 11,807. . Within the samo period
in the same schools general attendance increased. In
1914 it was C1.112: in 1920.
One of the schools on which
Oregon Agricultural college.
that the enrollment for the tour-year course in agriculture
at this school in 1914 was 501; in 1920, 719, and in 1924
but 309. At the same time the general attendance
at the college increased from 173d in 1914 to 304C in
1924. v,;
Two reasons, apparently, figure mainly in the shrink
age of enrollment of students in agriculture. Both grow
out of the recent agricultural depression. One is that
since that depression fewer farmers than formerly are
financially able to send their sons to college. Tho other
is that because it has5 yielded small profits or none in
recent years, agriculture is not attracting so many young
peoplo as formerly and, fewer of them are disposed to
qualify themselves for it. Improvement 'in farm pros
pects may bo expected' gradually to correct both of these
conditions.
In sending his statement .concerning enrollment at
Kansas stato agricultural college to the compiler, Dean
J D. Farrcll, of tho division of agriculture, commented
on tho situation presented thus:
In 191213 agriculturo was operating on a rising market .
a condition which greatly stimulated lntnrest in production. At
that time the Sir, ltli-1 .ever work was barely started and the
Bmith-Hughes work had not begun.- These two kinds ot agri
cultural educutlon are now highly developed and thoy undoubtedly
satisfy to an Important dogree much of tho demand for sys
tematic agricultural instruction which 12 years ago could bo
satisfied only, or chiefly, at the agricultural college.
When I consider these fucts, together with the agricultural
depression through which we have been passing, I can see no
reason for pessimism or for any revolutionary changes In our
' curricula.
Eugene's aggregate of February building permits
is $300,525. The amount is within a sliado of the total
of Spokano or Salt Lake. These are, of course, cities of
much larger population than Eugene. Among cities of
its own class in the states of Oregon, "Washington, Idaho,
Nevada and Utah, Eugene tops nil. Its aggregate of
permits for tho month is tho greatest of any. l'lugene's
total was double that of Salem and nearly three limes
that of Astoria. It is the kind of thing iliat has been
going on in greater degree or lesser for many mouths
past. Tho only Oregon city of its class that is approach
ing Eugene's record is Klamath Falls, ' It is well for
the people who live hero to realize that wo aro in an
era of change. This city is growing.
Of 435 members of tho national house of 'repre
sentatives only 35 aro found to bu without religious
affiliation and of 9G senators only .10, according to a
report compiled by the board of temperance, prohi
bition and public morals of tho Methodist Episcopal
church. In presenting its tabulation the board com
ments that it shows the churches are still furnishing
the intelligence and character that direct the des
tinies of tho nation. Tho highest number of congress
men of any ono denomination is 90 and of tho senate
27 Methodist in both cases.
There will bo general gratification in Eugeno and
in Oregon generally at tho promotion of Creed C. Ham
mond to bo major general and chief of tho militia bureau
of tho United States army. Uenernl Hammond is n Eu
geno product and the son of an estimable pioneer resi
dent, Mrs F, A. Itunkiu. Ho has earned the high posi
tion to which ho is about to attain by meritorious service.

Ben F. Jones, Builder.
(Marsliiield News)
Oregon uud the I'acilic coast has
lost a leader in bie death ot ben P.
Jones, ucanowledged originator of th
itoosevelt coast memorial bighwdy
plan.
Laptain Jones, as he was known to
thousands of citizens because of his
early experiences as steam boat cap
tain in the vicinity ot Newport aau
Vaqu.na, was a man who devoted the
greater part of his life to public ser
vice. No grcuter memorial to his keen
vision and faith in Oregon could be
conceived than the majestic bitfhway,
now uoder construction along the Pa
cific shores of this state.
Throughout all time o come, the
Roosevelt highway will continue to
serve not only the United States as a
compierciul artery but, as its origiunt
ur dreamed, it will ataud as a silent
weapon in support of peaco, becduae
of its military importance in defease
of these western shores.
Jn 18711 Ben Jones tramped through
the woods of Lincoln couuty currying
mail to the few settlers in the vicinity
of what is now Toledo, and although
ouly a youth, there was impressed
upon bis wiud the necessity for a
a great system of interlocking
aod connecting roads, if the state
should progreas.
The dream of lieu Joues lias not
yet been completed but since it was
first put into the form of a legisla
tive measure in the lull) session,
steady progress has been made to
ward realization of the project of a
finished highway skirting tho waters
of the Pacific.
Southwestern Oregon owes a par
ticular debt of gratitude to Ben
Jones and unites with the state in
paying trlbuto to his memory.

TUB riSACE I'ltOTOCOL, acoorii-j
ing to reports from meeting ot the i
council of tbe league of nations at!
Geneva, has been definitely rejected j
by Austin Chamberlain, foreign min ;
Inter, in the name of Ureat Britiau. ;
This gesture of disapproval by Cireati
Hntaiu is discouraging to say th? ;
least. Hut fortunately it docs n it
finally settle the matter. It reflects
the present attitude of a reactionary ;
government. Hut governments have a'
way- ot changing in Ureat Britain and;
the debate following Mr. Chamber
Iain's speech indicated that France,
Belgium. Czecho-Slovakia were defi
nitely for the protocol, while Brazil,
$pain, Sweden and several other coun
tries would welcome the inauguration
of this or any other general scheme
ot decreasing armaments and substi
tuting some form of practically com
pulsory arbitration. j
BKXKS. of CMcfco-SIovakia. per
morchiuery devised to securo the ac
ceptance of the protocol. At once Jap
an raised the question of Japanese
immigration into America and otiicr
Janus. Jf questions of international
immigration were regulatory under
tue provision ot (tie protocol it wa
evident that internationalism would be
with us to a degree quite impractic
able in the present state of the world
Tbcii Egypt afforded an example in
wnico Ucunicaiiy ureat JJritam vio
lated even the existing compact be
twoen two members of tho league in
the coercive acta required to dcul with
a dangerous situation and demonstrat
cd to tho world that Egypt for prcs
cut at least is a proviuce of the Brie
ish empire, rather than au independ
eut atate. Tbe censure Great Brituit
received from the world in goner.il,
whether deserved or not. had the ef
fect of making her government rccos-
uize the unpleasant possibilities of in
ternationalism for a far-flung empire
sucu as mei own.
WHAT THEN? buall tbe dream of
world peace perish amid the selfish
ambitions of competing nations. It i
certain tuat there is not even tu
foundation for permanent peace un
less the nations of the earth accept
tne great idea slowly dswniog the.
minds of forward looking men tbat
the nations of the world, and esnei
ially the great nations, shall volun
tarily yield a part of their hitherto
jealousy guarded powers to a kind of
supreme court, Jhat ia to say to rte
league of nations, and accept, jim
as tlie various states of our nation
accept the jurisdiction of our su
preme court, the decisions of that
body. '
,
AWKWARD SITUATION'S will in
evitably arise, -if this is done. But
that is the price which must be paid
for world peace. INone other will suf
fice. Benes will be held supremely
right and Chamberlain eternally
wrong in the estimate of the future,
even though the Chamberlains of the
present era temporarily prevail and
bring the world to Chaos and ruin in
their spirit of successionism.
m m
HATRED OP WAR does grow
pace, Tbe yearning for permanent
peace swells in human breasts all
over tbe earth. This world sentiment
may yet prevail.- Therefore it is well
that the protocol be discussed a while
longer tbat at tho next assembly of
the league, its advocates may speak
with prophetic authority.
