Oregon, under tha i of Marca 3, 1879. , WE ARE ALL AMERICANS Learned editorials in big metro politan newspapers, discussing the in feriority complex of farmers as a class, lead to no good result Perhaps this complex is more marked on the part of the farm cri tics, for city folks show woeful lack in general knowledge of "country" u'fairs. A great many "farmers" have be come experts and prospered in dairy ing, stock raising, fruit and truck gardening, in spite of metropolitan jibirs of hicks and rubes. The people of Our country, includ ing city journalists and syndicate writers, better conclude that we are Americans, with constantly chang ing habits and classes of occupation). The farmers and country-bred peo ple' may make up the majority o medium and smaller-sized cities one day, while the progressive and enter prising dwellers and tillers of the roi are coming more and more from the cities. A Maupin young man stole a march on his friends lust week and went to a neighboring city where he wns married. Those friends made the fact of the stolen marriage known by a real old-fashioned charivari, and now the groom wonders how the hews cameut j ' . Commenting upon the approach of Thanksgiving a Maupin man said he- had nothing to be thankful for. He had forgotten that he was alive, and should have been thankful for that, even if there are those who would be just as thankful if he were dead.

Prepared like spinach, alfalfa makes an appetizing dish, she says. "We first experimented with the tender sprouts of the plant," said Miss Child, "and later conducted experiments with the older plants. The stems of he . older samples prver rather woody, but the leaves were used to good advantage." A cup of boiling water should be poured over the greens, the says,' a teaspoonful of salt added, and the contents boiled half an hour. The utensil should be left open to retain the plant's color. The plants then are drained, seasoned with butter and served hot COLLEGE SEED' SUGGESTIONS O. A. C. Says Seed Spudi Be of Four or Five-Quoce Weight The best size of tuber for seed po tatoes is four or five ounces about twice the sire of a hens egg. The best tubers are well filled out on the ends, particularly the stem end. Any discoloration of this end when clipped indicates possible disease or weakness. Although rough potatoes are not desirable, observations have shown that those with deep eyes with in a given variety apparently carry less disease than smooth ones. Horse Have Easy Time In r. study of the number of hours of wr.rk done by horses' the l.mitod Sialtis Department of Agriculture Agriculture found, there were wide differences in the work required of horses in a year in typical farming regions. In North Carolina on farms where livestock and tobacco were produced horses averaged 1,167 hours of work per year. In southern Ohio with diversified crops and live stock but a shorter growing season, horses worked only 636 hours on the average. In the black land belt of Texas, horses averaged 914 hours, and on dairy farms in Wisconsin the horses had a- comparatively easy time with an average of 710 hours of work per year.

A., Anderson, Secretary of the Pacific Coast Building-Loan associa tion, in an address at the Pacific States savings and loan conference, recommends newspaper advertising as the most effective and economical mcnn3 of reaching the public. Fur ther, he urged that the building-loan associations throughout the United States should have a fund of at least $1,000,000 for such a campaign. As Mr. Anderson knows, it hus been fully demonstrated that the newipaper stands by itself as a car rier of messages to the greatest pos sible number of people. It is the only medium that is sure to reach the citms of a community and be read. This fact is being more f jlly appreciated every day. 1hi .vmilkr ilty dailies nn.l c.ii- tvy vd'lc'ies the great n.iVn fi t- re.. l.inir the timers of the poo p'e who iv-pm-nt the majority of the reading am! buying power of this nation.
