K R M R w F W K C Bc S P A KNOW THY COUNTRY I—Introductory "Know America" la a slogan that ■hould ring out from every school room, office, farm and shop In this na tion. No man can aspire to a higher honor than to become a capable citi zen. and no one can merit so dis tinguished a title until he Is well in formed of the resources, possibilities and achievement! of our country. This is a commercial age and civ ilization la bearing Us most golden fruit in America. We are noted for our Industrial achievements as Egypt was noted for her pyramids; Jerusa lem for her religion; Greece for her art; Phoenicia for her fleets; Chaldea for her astronomy and Rome for her laws. Likewise w“ have men who will go down In the world’s history as pow erful products of their age. For, stand ing at tho source of every gigantic movement that sways civilization Is a great man. The greatest minds travel In the greatest direction and the com mercial geniuses of this age would have been the sculptors, poets, phil osophers, architects, and artists of earlier civilizations. As Michael Angelo took a rock and with a chisel hewed It Into the Image of an angel that ever beckons man kind upward and onward, Hill took the desert of the Northwest and with bands of steel made It blossom like a rose, dotted the valleys with happy homes and built cities in waste places. As Guttenberg took blocks of wood and whittled them Into an alphabet and made a printing press that flashed education across the con tinent like a ray of light upon a new born world, McCormick took a bar ot Iron and bent It Into a reaper and with one sweep of hts magic mind broke the shackles that enslaved labor cf generations yet unborn, and gave mankind freedom from drudgery, and lifted the human race Into a higher zone of life. As Nelson organized the English navy and made England mistress of the sea, enabling the British Isles to plant her flag upon every continent washed by the ocean’s waves, and to make foot stools of the Islands 6f every water, Morgan organized a banking system that has made America master of the world’s finances, brought Kings to our cashier's windows, the nations of the earth to our discount desks and placed under the Industries of this nation a financial system as solid as the Rock of Gibraltar. There Is no study quite so Interest ing as progress; no sound so maglo as the roar of industry and no sight so inspiring as civilization in action. A full realization of America's part In the great events of the world past, present and future will thrill every human heart with pride, patriotism and faith In Republican lnstltutlona. Through the courtesy of the Agri cultural and Commercial Press Ser vice, the readers of this paper will be permitted to study America; her ag ricultural, manufacturing and min eral development, mercantile, bank ing and transportation systems which are the wonder of the world. The first article of tho series will deal with transportation and will appear at an early date. Time to Cut Hay to | Oregon Hens Lead in Secure Right Quality Sixth Month of Contest Oregon Agricultural College, Corvallis,— "Cat hay in the morn ing after the dew is off and rake into windrows as soon as the leaves are thoroughly wilted. Leg umes (clover, alfalfa, etc ) especial ly lose their leaves readily and should lie cured in windrow and cocks and not in swath. Two to three days in cocks should cure clo ver hay enough for the mow. Be sure all outside moisture (rain and dew) are off aud little danger wili be experienced in mow burning, providing the crop was cut at the proper stage. You can’t afford to lose the leaves by swatb curing. They represent a large per cent of the nutritive value of the bay.” These are the views of J. E Lar son, field crop Extension specialist of the Oregon Agricultural College, on the best time to cut hay. Mr. Larson continues as follows: “ It grains are cut for hay, ent in late milk or early dough stage. A l low to wilt and cure some in wind row, then put into cocks of good size, well built and solid. The same method will apply to grasses except that they are often put in the haymow from the windrow. Hay cut at the proper stage, and cured and stored without burning out will take the place of some of the grain feed Quality is impottaut in bay making ” Oregon Agricultural College, Corvallis.— The sixth report of the world egg-laying contest at the Pan ama-Pacific Exposition shows that the O- A. C. Leghorns led with 208 eggs and the crosses were second with 188. The Barred Rock drop ped back one place in the race. For the teim record at this, the middle point of the race, the Can ada pen of Adams’ White Wyan- dottrs is still in the lead with 773 eggs, while the O. A. C Leghorns are in second place and have all but overhauled their splendid competit ors Last month the Leghorns were 47 eggs behind their rivals, this month they are but five behind. The O. A. C. crosses are third with 712 eggs, having advanced from fifth place last month. The O- A. C. Barred Rock are now filth in the term records with 694. There are 60 pens in the contest. The lowest record is 127 eggs for the six months, made by a San Francisco flock. The O. A C. Leg horns and crosses are now ahead of any other pens from the United States or England. The encouraging thing about the O A. C. flock is that the three pens stand close together right near the top. They were bred by the same selective method and results show beyond question that the breeding has been good. The highest individual record is that of the New York Leghorn with h i eggs for the six months Two O A. C. crosses are tied for second with 107 eggs each. The third highest is an O. A. C. Leghorn with 105 eggs, and another Oregon Leghorn is sixth with 95 eggs. PER YE A R $1.60 per ten-bour diy. Roseburg shall have the controlling voice in the matter of ei-tablishing freight rates.
