That tbe Switt Packing oompany Lag uo intention of making Pilot Rock - 11 feeding grounds was stated fay VYm. II. Daagbtrey of Portland who repre sents tbe interests of tbat big cjucern in Umatilla oonnty says tbe East Ore Kouian. Mr. Daagbtrey thought not, bat would not say whether any other concern was desiring tnat location for snob a purpose. From the time of tbeir pnrcbase'of tbe property some years ago nulil too present season tbe Swift people have used the Umatilla ranch in the Mead ows district as a winter feeding grounds. This plan has been aban doned at present, however, and al though about 300 bead of cattle are beiug wintered at tbat place they are being bandied by individuals who bavo leased pasture from tbe oompany. Tbe Swift people who are interested iu tbe ranob, and Mr. Daugbtrey as tboir manager bave come to tbe con clusion that tbe ranob as" a district devoted to intensive cultivation un der diversified farming will be of inuob greater value to themselves as well as to the country, than in its present form and it is being now broken up into tracts of from 10 to 40 aoros tbe first big farm holding in Umatilla county to be so cat up. Aooording to Mr. Daugbtrey the showing made upon the ranob daring tbe past unfavorable season has de monstrated that it will take rank among tbe fiuit-producing seotions of tbe west end. Until tbe orchards can be developed, however, many of the settlers are going into dairying and honey for returns. Had a Close Call. Mrs. Ada L.

By Prof. T. D. Miner. These bracing October days are splendid school days. And all tbe sobool affairs are beginning to assume tbe customary forms of regular routine. In the high sobool grades tbe work in Amerioan Literature has now teaobed a point of real live interest. Tbe class bas jnst finished tbe study of Washington- Irving. In tbe eighth grade aiitbmetio tbe class bas been working out tbe various applications of Interest Piof. Smith realizes tbat Ibis oommeroial phase of tbe Aritbmetio work will be of far more importance than aor other part of tbe subject, in tbe after lives of tbe pupils. He is teaobing this work in tbe form wbiob bis long experience bas shown bim to be tbe most praotical plan. One need only glanoe into room four, at tbe many blackboard outlines, to be oonvinoed of tbe industry in that room. A number of tbe text books iu use at present treat tbeir sobjeots so extensively tbat it is almost impossible tor pupils in tbe sixth or seventh grades to accomplish much unless eaob lesson is outlined for them. This is what Miss Blaoobe Orswell, the teaoher, is doing. These outlines have two consequences. In tbe first place they mean a tremendous amount of work for tbe teacher. In tbe second plaoe they have resulted in numerous favorable comments by tbe patrons of the school relative to tbe progress of those pupils. Would Mortgage the Farm.
