ment Prof. CI. It. llyslop, of the O. A.
C Kxpi-riment Station, quotes from a
letter received from the famous II. ,.
lleinx plant, ninlers of the well
known ."7 varieties of pure food pro
ducts, as follows:
"We did nut jtt opportunity to
buy any of these benns, but we have
some samples. However we aro in
clined to think they would he very

urally are interested in knowing ihu
outcome of last season's efforts.'

from the manufacturers of bean pro
ducts of tin; very hihet quality
should be very eneourajiini; to Ore
gon growers," says Prof, llyslop.
"The bean crop is too valuable a cul
tivated crop to be on any other than
a firmly established basis. Tho larg
est problems for us arc the choice
of early matur,ing varieties, harvest
ing and threshing promptly, and care
ful grading" and standardizing to get
the advantages of the best market.
"By centralizing on Lady Washing
ton and Mexican tree beans, and fol
lowing right methods of harvesting
and grading, Oregon may become fa
mous for bean production. Because
they are a leguminous cultivated cash
crop, they are particularly des;ra
ble in Oregon cropping and rotation
systems."
LONDON, May :U, (via Ottawa.)
The abandonment of li helms seems
inevitable. The Germans are Hearing
the Marne and the Paris-Ohalons rail
way, which is the main Rommuuiea
tion between Paris and Verdun.
Although the pace of the Oerman
advance has slackened owing to the
arrival of the allied reserves, it is
recognized that the allies have n dif
ficult task to prevent further'devel
opmunt of the menacing enemy suc
cess. Correspondents say the retreat
over the Aisne was n most difficult
feat of warfare, itoth as regards
calm generalship and the courage of
the troops. The ground was repeat
edly defended to the last man. Offi
cers were seen holding the bridges
to the last moment and were then
killed when they blew them up.
