PAGK 0. if' 1 USE OF FOREST L DEPARTMENT'S POLICY IS STATED Sccictiiry Jiimo Announces Attitude ('oncuriiitiK I'ltnils in Xiitiiiiuil Ito- eres Clilelly Viljualilo for Ail- i-iiltiirlstH For .Malliiiiiu Use Tlio following extracts from tlio ro jiort of tlio Secretary of Agriculture for tlio "8cn' 'ear -ndlng June 30, 1010, indlcnto tlio department!! pol u with regard to lands In the na tional forests which are clilelly val tinblu for farinlng and thereforo es f peoially interesting in this section Alien) bo much land Is comprised viihln the foreBt reserves: It Is the department's policy to wnko avallalilo for settlement nil inniiM which are clilelly valunlilo for AN S IS m furiiiliig. In order to opon Bitch nronB u careful ciassinqaiion is ueing hihuu. J.argo trncts found to ha valuable for , griculturu or unsulted for perma nent forest purposes are eliminated. During the last llvo years about 11,- 000,000 acres have been released, in addition, individual tracts nro clas sified and opened to entry upon ap plication, of homo seekers. Slnco tho work was begun more than 1, jiuO.OOO acres have been mado avail able for tho benollt of 18,000 set tlers. "In short, lands within tho forests really adapted to agriculture aro be ing occupied as homesteads under favornblo conditions. While tho lnnds Bulled to settlement nro clas sified and opened to entry, Hiobo which nro not clilelly vnluablo for iigrlculturo nro retained In public ownership. Tho alienation of tlmber lnnds under conditions that will lead not to settlement but to speculation and to Increasing tho holdings of pri l vato timber owners would defeat the very purposes for which the forcstB were established. "Tho real agricultural problem within and near tho forests Ib to make possible tho successful occu pancy nnd development of tho lands that alroady havo been opened to en try or actually patented. Tho mero prlvnto ownership of land docs not insuro successful ubo of it. In Oro- ...,.i u'nuiiitiL'tmi nlcno there aro hUll Mil" .. n jibout 3,000 acres of Iogged-off land, much of it agricultural in character, now lying Idle. In this condition speculative holding of tho land for higher prices plnys a largo part. An other cause Is tho lack of transporta tion facilities. A settlor may clear land nnd rnlso crops upon It, hut ho io helpless If heennnot mnrket thorn. There nro great areas of fertile land unused today on this account. In many sections near tho national for ests pioneer conditions still exist. Tho population is small and tho task of rond building Is beyond tho means ' of tho residents. There Is little or no demand for timber, nnd tho re ceipts from tho fdrestB which go to tho community aro small. Tho fact that tho public property Is not sub ject to taxation makes such com munities feol, and very Justly, that tho forests nro not contributing enough to local development. "This situation should ho changed. Asslstnnco should ho given la the building of rondo to bring into pro ductive use tho resources of such re gions. Thereforo. tho suggestion contained In tho last annual report Jb ropoatod. that upon a showing or public necessity appropriations bo mndo for opeclllc ronds nnd similar improvements, to bo charged aga nst tho StatOB future sharo of receipts from tho forests. Such action would promoto tho local development of ag riculture r.nd other resources. "To securo tho nyixlmum use or tho lands still In Inderal ownorshlp furthor legislation Is needed. Thero must be a constructive program which will promote development nnd safeguard public Interest. Tho aim should bo to make these properties more useful, available to greater numbers, and effectively instrumental in building up Industries." MARKKT RKl'ORT. NORTH PORTLAND, Jan. 24.

EIGHTH GRADE EXAM CHANGES NEW PLAN IS TO BE TRIED Superintendent Churchill Announces innovation In Kuuniiiiitloii Mcth- ods Qtiewtlos to Test Ability to Express What Is I.eiuiied. In tho May and Juno eighth grado examinations n new plan will be tried in testing the pupils In tho subjects of U. S History and Civil Govern ment, according to a statoment Is sued today by State Superintendent of Public Instruction, J. A. Churchill. During tho examination, tho pupil will bo allowed to refer to his text book, but the questions will bo so framed bb to test tho ability of the pupil In expressing what ho has learned In clear, concise language. Tho advantages of such n plan, nro that It permits the tenchor to empha size the historical oventa which sho considers most important; It gives the trained tenchor greater freedom so that sho can do a much higher quality of work than simply helping the pupils to "cram" for an exam ination; it frees the teacher r.nd tlio liunlls from so teaching and studying ns to make the examination the end; It tends to give tho pupils power oi expression and eliminates tho .mem orizing of unimportant dates and facts. "Thero is alwr.ys danger," said huperlntandoiit Churchill, "of tho ex amination system developing a ques tion nnd answer method of teaching. Any plan whereby tho examination becomes tho end Is unpodngoglcal, and tho examination usually deter iorates fnto a memory test. With this new rlnn If tho toacher will adopt It for tUo pupils monthly tests thoy will learn by tlio close of tho year how to ubo tho text merely r.s roforenca work In writing their flnnl papers. The questions will bo so worded that It will bo Impossible for tbn iniiill to cony any nmount from tho text book, but ho will find help by turning to It to refresh his moni ry n some point that has escaped him Just for tho moment. , "When writing an examination n mini! often finds that ho ennnot ro- call the answer to n question. He is thnii liable to becomo so nervous nnd frightened that ho will fall In tho entire examination. This Is really the common sense wny to prepare n pupil for his work In tho every day world, for if a man has to write an article or propnro a paper on any subject, ho does not attempt to de pend upon his momory for the proof which ha wishes to uso from various sources to substantiate his state ments; rnther, ho has on his tnble a number of roforonco works dealing Royal Club Satisfaction Begins With Breakfast -aVid lasts throughout tho day.

To properly "neutralize" a blend it is necessary to mix the different-green coffees nnd let them "age" for a year or more.'
