Drainage of wot lands is an ab
solute' necessity before agricultural
development can progress as it should
as is well known by agricultural
leaders.
^ ■$» gn.
Sale of 1,592.900 feet a« tile for
farm drainage was reported by mem
bers of the Oregon Clay Worker# as
sociation for 1921. Concrete tiles
were also sold for farm drainage, but
this was aboih offset .by clay tile
used for road and basement drain
age.
This material serves 2000 acres or
more under average conditions, ac
cording to soil types.
Any increase in drainag« is
counted an asset to the community,
but at the 1921 rate of program it
would take S75 years to drain the
750,000 acres of wet lands In the
Willamette valley alone.
Experimental work showing the
most economic dlethods of draining
various soli types has been conduct
ed by tbe O. A. C. experiment sta
tion. a soils specialist who devotee
most of his time in drainage seasons
to helping groups of farmers work
out plans for drainage systems has
been provided by the extension
service.
Demonstrations showing
proper methods, grades and depth
of tiling are oonducted by the spec
ialist in different parts of the state.
Requeets for this assistance are
made through the county agent, or
when there is none in the county,

weighed ISO pounds.
Treed after a three-hour chaas by

Unable to run, it attacked the two
Kentucky hounds that hgd pounced
upon It. With a savage thrust it
cuffed over one, ripping up Its
flank.
As 8mlth reached to rescue the
dog the oougsr turned on him. Smith
grasped tbe dog by • leg, kicked the
cougar tn the head and jumped back.
The cougar lunged at him, but Smith

A ll things equal, merchandise as good, prices the same or better, your fellow
townsmen who operate stores, pay taxes and upkeep for the town and assist in all work
for the common good o f the community deserve your patronage.
If your local dealer does not carry as good goods and does not sell at prices equal
to the neighboring town competitor, no one is obligated to buy at home. It has ever
been our consistent policy to favor home people in the purchase of electrical merchan
dise at prices less than other places.
