Tho Agricultural college has prom ised to assist us further in prepar ing bulletins giving expert advice lo the children as to how best to pro duco tho different things named in theso protects, such as bulletins on potato growing, etc These will be distributed through the clubs, and will be of vajue to parents ns well as to tho children. The work of organ izing the clubs will fall largely upon tho county school superintendents working through the teachers. The "University of Oregon, the Oregon Ag ricultural college and tho Oregon Normal school have promihed to send out men in nddition to the field workers from this office to help the superintendents in this work. Tho state fair board has appro priated to this department $1000 to bo distributed amonp the boys and girls ns prizes at the state fair. The hoard has also promised us $500 to be used to entertain two boys from ench county for tho wholo week of tho fair. Tha boys will be under the most careful supervision nud will make a study of every department of tho fair, including especially the poultry and the stock judging. In addition to this we expect to send the ten children who stand highest in tho state contest to the Panama exposition at San Ftancisco. Personally I feel that the great success which the children's indus trial work hns had in this state is due to n great extent to tho encour ngement which hns been given to the movement by tho press of Oregon. All of uk will appreciate most sin cerely your continued support in helping to organize this work, and thus make tho work of our public bchools more practical and efficient. I bhall fend you from time to time copies of all bulletins oh they are published. For any editorial sup port you may see fit to give this movement, the stnto and the county KiipcrintcudenU will bo truly thank ful. J. A. CHURCHILL, State superintendent. Salem, Jan. 120.

Owing to tho fact that thcro is a largo number or unclean barns and open toilets within the city limits, which servo as a breeding plaeo for flies, and that flics aro a recognized carrier of dlscaso, it is tho opinion of this offlco that Medford should fol low the example of other cities Dy instituting a fly crusade. This would Incur tho oxponso or ono man in tho field all of tho time as well as bills for printing posters, etc. Many complaints havo como to this office to the offect that garbage is not removed regularly by tho scavan gers. The city should have some contract with thoso persons who haul garbage, or hotter still a garbage re moval system ot its own. Respectfully submitted, F. G. THAYER, Health Officer, was taken on the staff also as an assistant sales manager at another 15000 per annum. Yakima contri buted tho general manager, in tho person of J. II, Robbins, tho Bine qua non for which, from tho Hood River standpoint was tho naming ot II, F. Davidson as president, and In chargo of tho New York end. Yakima Pitying Pcrhnni Tho sales manager at Spokane, II. A. Perham, was taken from Yaki ma, but as tho Yakima Valloy Fruit growers association had promised Mr. Porham $0000 this year and tho Distributors' trustees would not pay lilin over $5000, tho Yakima district contributed $1000 towarJ Mr, Perham's salary. It Is understood that, now that tho Distributors havo gotten fairly under way, have established them selves as a going, prosperous con cern, election of officers, employ ment ot sales managers and other employes and adjustment or salarlos will bo mado on a business basis, ro gardjesa of tho individual wishes of the growers In any of tho districts.
