Dur ing the business meeting there were discussions regarding the date of the next meeting. It was decid ed to meet Saturday, April 18, at Hardman.

It was also suggested that each teacher bring some exhibit at the next meeting. After the business meeting a pot luck dinner was served. A pro gram was then given by Mrs. Heiny's pupils which consisted of a harmonica quartette and a little playlet After this two splendid talks were given by Cecil Musgrave on "Teach ing of Phonetics" and by Margaret Glavey on "Deficiencies in Para graph Meaning." These were fol lowed by general discussions on remedial reading. Mrs. Rodgers gave a very helpful talk on "The Testing Program" and gave the names of a list of books on the subject which may be ob tained from the state library. There was a small attendance at this meeting which is much to be regretted for these meetings are not only helpful and instructive but are also most enjoyable.

Italian or green sprouting Broc coli has been a popular vegetable in European countries for many years but has only recently become popular in the United States. The foreign population In this country consumes large quantities but its use is widening as its value be comes known. Since the best times of the year for broccoli are early summer and fall, sowings of seed are made in early spring and again in May for transplanting in the summer to have a fall crop. The variety most widely grown is the Early Green Calabrese. Three common methods of grow ing onions are by planting seed di rectly in the garden, as is the case with the greater part of Oregon's commercial crop, by transplanting plants in the spring, as is done in growing Bermudas, and by plant ing onion sets, which is frequently done for green onions but seldom used in growing a crop of dry on ions. Small sets make the best dry onions for often the larger size sets (above 3-4 inches in diameter) go to seed. Green onion plants as in the second method sometimes make "seeders" instead of large bulbs if they are checked in growth after being field set. Emerald Gem, one of the earliest and sweetest home garden musk melons for a short season, is small and globular but flattened at the ends. It is slightly ribbed, not heavily netted and has orange flesh that is very sweet and luscious. Jenny Lind, another useful melon for a small early type, has green instead of salmon flesh and is of fine quality. The greeni globe artichoke grows especially well under conditions typical of the sea coast as is evi denced by the large acreage near the ocean in California. Suckers taken from established plants of good type will make good plants later on. This is the usual method of propagating the crop, as the plants do not come uniform and true from seed. These are being grown successfully on a limited scale in several parts of Oregon. OSC Armory Being Repaired Corvallis. Reconstruction of of fices and balcony in the college ar mory damaged to fire in February, is now underwav with as much Rtn- dent labor as possible being used. Final estimates turned in to the board of control showed the dam age to be slightly in excess of $16, 000. Money for the repair work comes from the state restoration fund to which all institutions onn- tribute annually. In the rebuilding woric some improvements will be made to give added protection to stores, arms and ammunition. State Supplies More Students Corvallis. Final examinations for the winter term at OSC started this week and will end Wednesday, March 18. A brief spring vacation will continue until the opening of the spring term Monday, March 23.
