At least, they are dead bo far as prac tical uso this season Ib concerned. Tho fault is the County Court's,, for that body ivemlngty negtootcd to take any action or rccognlxe the claims of this important branoh of county development to financial support. Beonomy Is an oxcellent cry, and vise eqonomy Is an excellent virtue. Hut penny -wteo and pound foolish Is worse than no economy at all, and certainly the abandonment of the agricultural stations at this time Is a species of penny parsimony that )s far more foolish than wise. Crook county nmli these farms, and It Is an amazing pity, and one that should be reseatAl by every farmer, every settler and every business man that their support bas been withhold by tho county's governing body. And If Its aeUon Is tho outgrowth of tho apparent rupture between its moni bers, or due solely to tho reaction ary character of its presiding officer. the citizenship of tho county would do well to make such Insistent de mand for sane progresslreness In this matter that even the blindest and most solf-centerad official t III be coniifajled to give heed. And along the some line, as point ed out by Dean Cordley, Is tho big opportunity which taw recently en acted agricultural-aid law bas cre ated. If Crook county appropriate from $1000 to $4000 for agricultur al betterment, under the auspkee of the O. A. C. the. state ooatrlbutee a like amount. How better could $2000 bo spent? How could It ac complish more lasting good to all classes of taxpayers? In whoso hands could It bettor be entrusted than to those of the provedly-ehlolent O. A. C. workers? But no doubt the court will bicker and cavil and "economize" and ac complish nothing more than to dis gust the entire county with Its Inof foetlveness. I,et the now settlers and the old farmers go to blazes, while days and days of court sittings are consumed with insane braying over gasoline bills and similar matters of International Importanaei And on the other hand. let us have conventions and meetings andland shows and dlnnora tlnd auto trips, all replete with exponse, oratory, and Jlapdoodle. Lot us have this and the other, that Is, until tho people who iiay the bills awake to, the faot that oirtolal bunoombo on one band, and publlolty and pleasurable froth on tho other, nro vastly less Important than curing for the man on the ground helping him to win the fullest measure of succose. Aid the furmer with his problems, make tlio newaomer con tented and all tho rest of It can be forgotten. What Central Oregon needs Is more content In the foundation walls and less red paint on the roof. According to scientific nnnoiinoo meats, experts soon wilt be able l. proillet one summer Just what the weather will be tlio next year. This Is heralded as a great beon to farm ers. Hut the farmers wtll get nwful- ty fooled unlace theee forecasters do a lot better than was attempted by the weather bureau last weok, when the U. S. forestry o dices sent out a bulletin warning against n "hot dry oast wind" that would sweep ovor Oregon.

Stop the Loss Fires are Unnecessary Brick is absolutely (ire proof in any ordinary conflagration. .Brick Buildings never burn, although they are .sometimes injured by falling timbers or combustible interior woodwork. A brick building is absolutely fire proof if wire glass is used in the windows and if burned clay doors are used. An interior fire in such a building is confined to the room in which it originates; no outside fire can attack it, The proportion of burned clay in a building construction measures its fire proof qualities. Burned clay is the only building material that has been through the fire before you get it, in such a manner that it will resist fire. All combustible material is burned out of the brick before you get it. WHEN YOU BUILD USE BRICK. The Bend Brick & Lumber Co.
