SAVING SEEO CORN FROM FROSTED FIELD Most Mature Kars Should be Snapp. ed Off, Later Husked, and Then Froperljr Dried. In order to secure corn, much of which has undoubtedly been very erieusly damaged by the early frost, suitable for seed for next season's crop, farmers should go through their fields before cutting the corn for silage and snap off all of the more mature ears which show reasonably good denting. "The early frost has caught a good deal of the early seed corn in the milk and much of it will be unfit for seed purposes." savs O. R. Hvainn specialist in field crops at the Oregon Agricultural College. "Seed corn will undoubtedly be a very scarce article next spring. "By going through the field and snapping off the more mature ears, farmers will frequently be able to se cure satisfactory seed. These ears should be husked out within a few days and stored on the drying rack recommended by the College, in some place that is warm with a current of air. Most of the immature corn may be dried in sufficiently good condition to germinate and produce good corn next year. I "This season has been late as to growing and early as to frost. It very forcibly demonstrates the necessity for an early to a medium maturing variety of silage cofn, both from the standpoint of Quality of silaee and ability to secure sufficient seed to keep up the crop. "Under no condition try to store the immature corn In bulk or on shelves or in sacks. If you do, it will certainly mold. It should be put on ' racks or on wires, or should be tied 'up with string so that no two ears I touch and so that the air has acess to each ear. Put the corn n that is warm and in a draught and It will dry out quickly and without sprouting. If DUt into a nln.rn that lis warm without ventilation the im mature corn is likely to sprout at once. If put Into a cool place with out ventilation, the tendency Is for It to mold and sour. Corn will suc cessfully stand 130 degress. F. "Every farmer should save enough of his best mature seed and try it in order to be certain of a seed stock for next year." Cigarettes are not sold at the new co-operative store of the University of Oregon students although the store is not on University property. The student directors have decided tem porarily against clrgarettes and the injunction is likely to stand. The students also have an unwritten law against smoking of any kind on the campus. 308XYESISAVOTE FOR YOUR CHILDREN SQUARt DEAL FOR EASTERN OREGON If you are In favor of a square deal for the country Fast of the Cascades you will vote for and work tor THE PROPOSED EASTERN OREGON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL AT PENDLETON, OREGON. Oregon has but one Normal School. This school ia located at Monmouth and ii not able to supply more than TEN PER CENT of the teachers re quired in the public schools of Oregon. Of th more than tlx thousand teachers in our public schools, BUT 13 PER CENT are graduates of Nor mal Schools. It is a matter of simple justice to the country East of the Cascades to establish a Normal School East of the mountains to furnish thoroughly trained teachers for the schools of Eastern Oregon. TRAINED INSTRUCTORS WANTED Every resident of Eastern Oregon has a vital lu erest in the passage of this measure for Eastern )regon pays HIGH SALARIES to her teachers and ia entitled to the services of TRAINED INSTRUCTORS. ONLY COSTS CENTS PER $1.000 The annual cost of maintenance of the proposed State Normal School amounts to BUT ONE 25TH OF A MILL OR 4 CENTS ON A THOUSAND DOL LARS of taxable property. Isn't It worth this to ou to have your children trained to become USE- "L AND PRODUCTIVE citizens? STRONC ENDORSEMENT !. A. Churchill, the State Superintendent of Public nstructten, voices the sentiment of the educators of lie state when he says: "Oregon's greatest need for its rural schools Is the eacher who has had full preparation to do her work. Such preparation can best come through Normal School training. "I trust that the voters of the state will assist In raising the standard of our schools by establishing a State Normal School at Pendleton. The location is central, the Interest of the people of Pendleton in education most excellent, and the large number of pupils in the public schools will give ample oppor tunity to all students to get the amount of teaching practice required in a standard normal school." The educators of the State insist that Standard Normal Schools be located in towns of 600 popula tion or more and having ENOUGH GRADE PUPILS FOR TEACHER PRACTICE. BE LOYAL AND VOTE RIGHT Show your loyalty to the best Interests of Eastern Oregon and of the whole state by working for thia measure and by voting TES FOR NO. 308. By yot ins TES for No. 308 you will help to GIVE TO THK SCHOOL CHILDREN OF OREGON THE 8AMB ADVANTAGES ENJOYED BY THE SCHOOL CHILDREN OF OUR NEIGHBORING STATES.
