Doak Bros, extensive wheat farm

Friday receiving a Ford.ion tractor
from the Clias. II. Lal.ourell agency.
If the squatty looking little machine
proves as good in actual work as it
looks on the street the I leaks will
purchase another for use on their
big larni, and Mr. Latourell looks
pleasant as tho' he fully figured on
another sale.
Frank Smith, merchant, and James
Dineen, sheepman, of Condon, were
here Thursday evening when Mr. Din
een was initialed into Hepimer Lodge
U. I O. Klks. Mr. Dineen is known
over In Gilliam county as the Irish
poet, having composed many verses
expressing nis thoughts on many sub
jects. II iH rendition of several of Lis
niiiubors was a feature of the social
hour Thursday evening.
In the siiring cleaning of the farm
stead a great deal of material Im
plements, machine parts, sprayers
and other odds and ends that have
been discarded for larger or Improved
kinds is dug up that could and
should be advertised and Bold, says
the O. A. C. press bulletins. A short
want ad in the Herald will save these
things from waBte and offer neigh
bors u chance to add equipment at
bargain prices.
Ancient Hygienic Rules.
The Hindus had rules of hygiene, hut
public health appears always to have
been unconsidered In China ns it is to
day. They knew In antiquity the In
oculation against smallpox and the Im
portance of good water, some of their
wells being t.fiOO feet deep und very
old.
The wholesale vaccination of the
school children by boards of health,
and the suspension from school of
those who refuse to submit to vaccin
ation, has bi ought the senooi situa
tion to an acute stage in many parts
of the slate. Citizens and parents
have been awakened to realize that
laws have been put on our statute
bookc giving almost absolute control
of the people and of t'neir institutions
into the hands of the public health
officers.
Parents resent that their children
in the public schools should be made
the receptacle of theories, or the vic
tories of special practices without re
gard to the proper function of the
school of the rights and preferences
of the parents of the children.
The question now uppermost in
the minds of parents is, whether the
integrity of the public pchools is to be
safeguarded and whether the child
ren who attend these institutions
shall be influenced in their education
by special interests, or whether they
shall be protected from practices that
are foreign to the basic purposes of a
free system of education and contrary
to American ideals.
At the last regular session of the
state legislature, numerous bills were
introduced providing for medical ex
ploitation of the public schools and
the public school children. An at
tempt is being made to introduce re
ligious teaching:; in the schools thro
Bible reading and the giving of school
credits for same. Little or no organ!
zed opposition to either of these lines
of invasion lies so far appeared.
It is of interest to every citizen of
Oregon who stands for freedom of the
public schools, that such an organi
zation has bow been established
with offices at 323 Chamber of Com
nierce building, Portland, its object
being to protect the public schools
and public school children from
medical and ecclesiastical exploita
tion. In line with Its purpose It Is
known as the "Public School Protect
ive League."
It is not the purpose or desire of
the league to assail the legitimate
practice of medicine or to question
the desirability of religious training
of our children; but it shall be the
policy of the league to prevent the
use of the child in the public school
for attempted verification of particu
lar medical theories, and to prevent
I the introduction, into our schools of
such religious teachings as would con
flict with the religious opinions or
preferences of the home from which
the child may tome.
The league invites the interest and
solicits the membership and support
all who believe in its principles,
and it stands upon the fact that the
function of the public Bchool is to
educate not to medicate.
DANISH BUTTER ARRIVES IX
COMPETITIVE LOTS
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor-
vallis, March 1. Several thousand
casks of Danish butter have arrived
in America from Denmark, says a re
cent issue of Market Reporter, pub
lished by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. The butter is
high class and much more like it Is
eported on the way.
The Danish farmer can sell under
our price because he has a lower
production cost," says Prof. P. M.
Brandt, head of dairying at 0. A. C.
His- cows produce about 8000 lbs
of milk a year and ours about half as
much. He produces milk and cream
from which high class products can
be made, while our dairymen produce
grades of cream from which only
relatively poor butter can be made
because the average creamery will
not refuse to take the poor cream.
If we compete successfully with
the Danes we must cull out our poor
cows and quit buying poor cream."
Quotations are higher in America
than in any other country, which
starts butter movements in this- di-
ection. Professor Brandt says. The
shipping board has put on a line
whereby vessels with refrigerator
systems will reach New York 10 days
from Argentina, which is reported to
have lots of good butter for export.
Creamerymen and farmers are
jointly responsible for meeting for
eign, competition of low-priced, high
quality butter, says Prof. Brandt.

TUADK:
N un are aware that the L'tah and Wyoming operators have
heeii ahsorhing the per eent increase granted the miners under
date of December 1st, ion). No doubt you have been following
the press reports of the investigation being conducted by the Coal
Commission appointed by President Wilson.
With each day's new developments, the conviction grows that
the Coal Commission will award the miners a further advance in
wages, as well as make them other concessions which will pyramid
the already high cost o producing Coal. In any eent, il is a cer
tainly that the Coal producers cannot indefinitely continue absorb
ing even the I per ev nt increase, w ithout a corresponding advance
in the selling price of Coal. We predict llldllKU Coal prices get
in ahead of the raise.
It iii'i'i iit's ecitain that the Railroads will be returned to nri-
ate ow iicrship mi March 1st. Hills which arc about to pass Con
gress will guarantee the Railroads a fixed return on the capital
invested lid a peiio.l of tais, ami railroad rate experts predict an
advance in freight and pass,iioir rates of at least per cent to
provide the revenue necessary for these guaranteed earnings.
