But under the j circumstances in which the agricul tural Interests of this state how find themselves, it might be a real ca lamity to lose Dr. Kerr. His work has initiated and bnllded into a healthy, growing actuality, the , movement among the farmers of this state for better lands, better crops,! better livestock, better methods, bet- ter returns. That work Is still un- der way. It has not progressed to the point where tne state may be said to be definitely committed to i Its continuance. . . What Dr. Kerr's loss would mean to the state would depend largely on who his successor might be; but , It Is safe to say that his chair would e hut Inadequately filled, at best.

Ore., Nov. 28. At a meet ing of the state lime board, held at the office of Warden Murphy at the state penitentiary Moflday, arrange ments were made for moving . an aerial tramway from the Greenback mine to the Beeman llraerock quarry near Gold Hill, which the board has leased. Thf tramway is to be used in carrying th manufactured agri cultural lime from the quarry to the railroad, a distance of about 4,000 feet. Warden Murphy said that the board has placed an order for ma chinery for manufacturing the lime, but so far has been unable to get any definite statement from the ma chinery manufacturers to when the equipment will be delivered. For that nason, he said. It Is Im possible to tell when the board can begin the actual preparation of lime for agricultural use. The lease with Mr. Beeman for his quarry provides for paying htm a royalty of 8 cents a ton.

The total receipts of the accumulated sales are to go to the Red Cross. The suck whs sturted on Hs way In this rlty on May 25 of this year and has been "on th go" ever since. It was taken to Honolulu mid sold there, for II.03C. It was also sold on the steamers which took It to and brought It pack from the Islands. Gridley's sa k, which wits first started from Austin. Nev., wore out dozen of ordinary flour sucks and three buckskin coverings before It reached the final purchaser. It has already been necesoury to place the Shrlners' sack In a lauhala or touch matlike covering. This covering was a gift of tbe Honolulu Shrlners.
