Cutsforth, of Riddle Or., is blind, and for ten . years has been totally so, but he is a student at the University of Oregon, "never theless. "Blind boys and girls have to compete with people who see, so why not educate them along with people who see," he says. . jt Cutsforth is 21 years old, and is a freshman. His right eye was blind ed by a table fork when he was nine years old, and the left eye gradually went blind through sympathetic in flamation. He was put into the school for blind at Salem and there learned the Braille system for blind and did school work as far as the equivalent of one year in high school. Then he entered Riddle high school and in his senior year was president of his class and president of the student body. He did three years of high school work at Riddle in two years. "The blind boy listens more at tentively than his normal brother and all he needs is a little guiding to ;st him in and out of the school .ooni," says this handicapped stud nt, whoe great hope is ultimately o sea blind and normal pupils edu ated side by side in public and high :chools.

(Special) A conference of far-reaching import ance to the Livestock industry of the Pacific Northwest was held at the Portland Union Stockyards a few iays ago. As a result of this confer ence, arrangements have been made whereby it will be possible to send out 1,000 or more brood sows to the boys and girls of Oregon, these ani mals being treated for, and guaran teed against cholera. The sows are not to be given away, but are to bo sold at prices ranging from $18 to $25 each, and in payment the Stock yards people will accept a note run ning from 8 to 19 months at 6 per cent interest, the note to be indorsed by the father or guardian of the boy or girl and approved by the county school superintendent. The familv of infant porkers will appear in four or five weeks after shipment of the sow, and the boy or girl will have plenty of time before heir note matures to bring the pigs to a marketable age and dispose of hem to the best advantage, paying off the note with the proceed of the sale. -In the work done by the nog clubs of the Northwent last year, an eleven year old girl at Washougal, Wash, made a clear profit of $79 on ins brood sow. In this instance two litters, 24 pigs In all, were produced. Local educators have expressed tue ninion that this is the most im portant step ever taken in tills line of work, and, as far as known, the first movement of the kind ever started in '.he United States. According to plans and estimates just completed by the F'ederal author ities, the proposed development in he Uuner Deschutes basin will in volve an expenditure of approximate ly $11,583,000,' involving an irriga ble area of more than 200,000 acres. If the work is finally carried out as iow planned, all the surplus water of the Deschutes River above Bend will be used for irrigation.

University of Oregon, Eugene, Jan. 11. A can of good salmon retails in Caracas at 45 cents, and fresh Ore gon apples bring 10 to 15 cents each, and any reduction in the cost of these eatables to the consumer would im mensely increase the consumption, says a letter from the United States minister In Venezuela. The letter has just been received by H. 13. Mil ler, director of the University of Oregon school of commerce, which is conducting a worldwide survey for markets to which Oregon products may be sent. "Lumber, print paper, flour, bis cuit, lard, and smoked meats, from the Pacific coast are likely to find a good market here," continues the letter. "Preserves, canned fruits, vinegar, and pickles, dried prunes, condensed milk, butter, cheese, tal low and hops, could also be market ed here to an advantage. Prunes are imported here now in glass jars or screw top tins, and butter in one, two and five pound tins." Venezuelan merchants, tills letter adds, are eager to get direct Pacific Coast connection for trade in coffee and cocoa. Director Miller hopes to see a lively business in canned fruits worked up With several South Amer ican countries. G. W. Ruiter and J. H.
