Wnllor, wlio 1ms 11 little fami on Hoj-h Lnnc, between Muilfmcl nml Central Point, brought to tlio Com inercunl pin)) rooms yesterday two mi ar lici-tM, one wu'mhini: 18 pnitnriit find Hip other 17. They were pro duced without nitificinl irrijmlion, but investipition shown thnt the Irncl ou whieh tliey weie produced is suit irrigated. Thnt is the het irrifrn lion known to agriculture, wlien prop erly managed by drainage. The Ilos" I.nne tract is a sediment deposit of alluvium, the best coil in the world, when properly combined with Bandy loam, to nroduce sugar beets. Vhat tho content of sugar may bo in these beets is not known. The soil in whieh one. of them was grown is not sub-irrigntcd properly. When its roots htnielc tho hard .ground the growth extended upward, and much of it, therefore, grew out of tho ground. It is safe to mark thnt beet as being deficient in sugar. Irriga tion in tho measure necessary to keep tho soil moist enough to freo the plant food always increases the su gar content, as well as the healthful growth of the root. The elements, nrn thus brought into proper sympathy to produce the desired combination of contents. ; A Misleading Suggo-Mlon One observer of these big heels remarked that, if tho fanner had kept the soil sonked with water he could raise sixty tons to tho acre, and, ho added, "lie could maku big money at that." This observation would mislead the rutin minccustnmed lo rnisitn; su pir beets, either for sugnr or feed. If the farmer had kept his soil soak ed with water he would have ruined the product. Tho value of a sugar heel is not determined by its hize, but by its sugnr content. Too much wa ter would destroy the latter and in jure the soil in which it grow to ab normal proportions. -If the fanner hud (5000 plans lo thn nere, and each plant produced i) beet weighing five pounds, topped nnd washed, be would have a product of fifteen tons, worth i7.". It is tho small beet, grown under favorable conditions, that contains Hie greater content of oigar nnd per centage of purity per pound of root. In n properly cultivated field of beets this would he the general char neter of the plant. T COURSE AT 0. A. C. rOHVAI.LIS, Or., Dee. S. -That every student registered at the winter short course be given individual in struction is one of the aims of the l'aculty of the Oregon Agricultural college and the state station workers. Tho winter short course is to be held from January 10 to February M at tho Oregon Agricultural college. One of the principal courses this ye.ir is toiie that of horticultuic. Not only will the fruitgrowers be given the most pinctieal instruction in the act ual woik of pnmintr trees, spraying, planting, etc., under the Dcrsonnl guidance of experts, but they will be invited to tako advantngo of the con sultation hours that arc being ar ranged in order to bring up for dis cushion the peculiar problems they are facing in their own work. The colloge and station workers thus hope to bring tho woik of the insti tution diiectly to bear upon the or chard operations of every man in at tendance at the short coure.

In tho hope thnt a better understand ing of tho law mny be had, nnd that we may nil work together for a full and economic enforcement of It, 1 submit herewith a simple digest of Its moro salient features. I desire also to nnnounce that I Intend to do all that Is humanly pos sible to enforce Its provisions fully, and to call upon all good citizens to help In tho work. Public sentiment and fenrless citizenship nro the strong factors In law enforcement, and if tho citizens of Jackson county will stand behind this lnw in the ratio thnt they voted for It I can ns suro them a complete nnd economic enforcement of it, but If they nro careless in their citizenship In this particular they mny expect law viola tion, employment of spotters nnd de tectives, costly trials and consequent taxation.
