The High School Mirror SCIENTIFIC FARM PRACTICE IS GOOD REPORT—SEND FOR IT Experiment Station Report—Sci entific farm practice as developed by the Oregon Experiment station should be kept years in advance of general farm practice, in order that the new methods, crops and varieties may be fully tested before offered to the farmer, says James T. Jardine, director, in his report for 1918-20 just off the college press. Much in formation that has added to the prof its of farming, and even more facts under investigation with promise of eventual solution, are explained in the report. Copies free on request. New Farm Account Books—A flew edition of the Oregon farm account book has just been issued by the O. A. C. extension service and United States department of agriculture, as simple, complete and efficient as can be made. Just what the farm did for the farmer—whether it made or lost him money, and how much— and which of the leading farm oper ations—livestock, dairy, crop fruit, forest or pasture—were profitable, are only a few of the useful points de veloped in proper accounts. The farmer’s gross and net profits, labor income, interest on investments, and other interesting items, are ascertain ed. Copies may be had of county agents in counties carrying record projects, from banks cooperating with the college and government, or from the college extension service direct on application to O. A. C., Corvallis, and payment of actual pro duction cost. HERMISTON, Vol. 1 Last Tuesday the High School und grades assembled for a program in memory of Washington and Lincoln.

Picking It up he saw that It was a Latin composition from one of his devoted disciples. On looking at It more closely he de tected an error which he had over looked. Seating himself at his desk, he dipped his pen In good red Ink and made the necessary correction. He then folded the paper Into a neat roll, stuck it In the fire, and with It lighted his pipe.
