ALBANY COLLEGE. Albany College this year will cele brate the fiftieth anniversary of il establishment In a humble way it ha played its part welt, doing a splcndic work for the cause of education. 1. its efforts for advancement the col lege has always considered charade: as big an asset as book learning, an the result is a alumnus of high-class citizens, prominent in the work of so ciety and the church. The list of grad uatcs is not as long as those of some colleges with state support, but it is a good one, and generally clean in character. With an endowment of $250,000 all paid, the prospects for the future loo good, ilore money is needed, a fun" for new buildings, which will eventu ally come, giving the college what is needed, a working plant, which will enable the school to do special work. ' so much in demand among students. ' At the present time a good many arc going elsewhere in order to secure special advantages, for which there i now insufficient provision. Along general lines of education Albany College has no superior as an educa tor, furnishing the foundation for a solid education. Albany people are in a position to do a big service for the school, and . one way is to send their own children there. ' o DUN ON CONDITIONS. At the close of another epochal year this country occupfes the position of international supremacy in finance, commerce and industry, and optimism is universal as 1916 opens with pros pects bright beyond precedent So much hesitancy ordinarily character izes the business situation at this sea son that the prevailing activity is noteworthy, if not surprising. Though inventorying and other annual adjust ments cause a temporary halting in the advance in some lines, especially in wholesale channels, the lull is much less general and marked than usual, and certain branches even reflect fur. ther substantial progress. Instead of diminishing, as is customary- at this time, demands in several important departments show a continued in crease and rarely, if ever, have manu facturing forces been so largely cov ered by contracts at this period.- This ensures full employment well into the new year and is a condition that re sults, not from mere speculation, but from actual consumptive require- . ments that in many cases exceed pro ductive capacity. In most industries it is not a question of finding buyers, but of. how to make specified deliver ies on previous orders, and in not a few instances the volume of business would be still larger were it possible to promise definite shipments. To a considerable extent, distribution con tinues to be hindered by the freight congestion, and the railroad embar goes on coke 1-avc necessitated the shutting down of a number of fo,uii- . dries in the east for lack of this fu el. Similarly, though due to a differ ent cause, the scarcity of dycsttiffs acts as a check on textile manufac ture; yet even here the mill3 are very actively engaged, while New Eng land footwear factories arc assured of capacity operation for several months to come.

Can it be possible the Ford peace expedition is having an effect on the sale of Fords. For the week ending last Friday only twenty out of sixty three automobiles sold in Oregon were Fords. Generally it has been about 50 per cent. How easy it is to figure. The Swedes have it all arranged how they will take Petrograd and then march south to join the Teutons. Suppose there was trouble serious ly with some European country there could be no danger of invasion for several years, for every last one of 'em has its hands full fcr a long time. Knock everything that tends to wards imperialism. Militarism is one thing. ' Parents, how do you like the idea of your children beginniug training for war at the age of 12, making them subject to call whenever they shall get old enough. Another evidence given of an im provement in the world is the fact that a Brooklyn judge holds that a street masher is insane and should be sent to the hospital for care. The following appears in an ad vertisement in an eastern paper: "Your own baby, if you have one, can be enlarged, tinted and framed for nine dollars and seventy-five cents a' dozen." Some funny column men spend their time hunting up remarks about the women, whose shoe strings they are unworthy of lacing. Here is one: "The tips and downs of some women consist of running up bills and run ning down their neighbors."

Lady Assistant NATIONAL FOREST BUSINESS Government Report Shows That De partment Had Considerable of an Income. Portland, Jan. 4. According to the. Annual report of Henry S. Graves, chief forester, for the fiscal year, end ed June 30, 1915, the iintionul forest receipts for the year amounted to $2, 4X1,409. 35. ' " This amuuiit, it is stated, was the result first, of a timber sulc business of $1,175,133. The amount contribut ed by District 6 (Oregon, Washington and Alaska) to this timber business was approximately $207,000. The sec ond source of the national forest re ceipts was gnuing permits which brotiKht in $1,1.(0,495, to which sum District 6 contributed $120,210. The third source of national forest reve nue, special use, brought in $175,840. of which sum District 6 contributed over $18,000. Of this latter fitturc $10,000 was for water power permits. Thirty-five per cent cf these, receipts reverts to the states in which the na tional forests are located. The report also states that in ad dition to the timber sold, there was nivcn away a large amount of mate rial to settlers free of cost, the value of which approximated $207,000. The revenue foregone through free use of grazing lands is estimated to exceed $120,000. Other miscellaneous free uses would yield if chnriied for, ap proximately $100,000. These values, it is pointed out, have never been en tered formally as a credit to the For est Service business, yet this should be considered among: the very defin ite benefits from national forests. The average price of atumpage dis posed of in commercial sales was $248 per thousand board feet. .The increase of 16 cents over the price of 1914 was due chiefly to large snles of Western yellow pine in Oregon, eas ily logged and of unusual quality Broadly speaking, there has been no increase, so the report says, in the value ' of Western stumpage during the past eight years, and hence no ground for a general advance in the prices of national forest timber. The timber sold to settlers and farmers at cost, brought an average of 74 cents per thousand board feet. In District 6 this class of material brings 50 cents per thousand board feet and 25 cents per cord for cordwood. The receipts for grazing permits show an increase of $127,091 over 1914 due partly to the increase in fees charged for grazing of cattle and hor ses, and partly to the increased num ber of the former. Improved meth ods, too, have increased the carrying capacity of the range. Perhaps the. most striking feature of the national torest grazing business in the increase in the number of livestock associa tions cooperating with the Forest Ser vice., They numbered 226 at the end of the fiscal year, an increase of 60 over 1914. In District 6, there are 44 of these associations cooperating with the service. The Forester points out that the desire on the part of stock men to be thus recognized by the For est Service emphasizes their general satisfaction with the grazing adminis tration, and adds that this cooperation has been very beneficial to the serv ice in working out many grazing prob lems.
