But the twain certainly met at Pasa dena on New Year's day, when Har vard played the University of Oregon at fociball, and thirty-five thousand spectators from at! parts of the coun try flocked to witness the match. There have been many objections raised to long athletic journeys cf th sort the Harvard team was com pelled to take In order to compete in the Tournament of Hoses. And pessibly an event of this sort does put a disproportionate emphasis on undergraduate rivalry. But on the other hand, it is worth a good deal for the people of the Atlantic sea beard to get, through the medium of the game and its attendant incidents new plimppo of tho Pacific coast, and for the Pacific coast in return to hear "Fair Harvard" sung to the ac companiment of a lusty band in the Pasadena grandstand, to listen to the cheers of the Crimson adherents and tc be brought into touch, if only for a day, with the athletic and academic liff of the east. ilow much did the east know about the University of Oregon before this garhe? Perhaps it does not know very much now. The fact fa that we have been very provincial in this part vt the country, just as the people hi other parts have been. Wc know n good deal, here in New England, about Cambridge and New Haven, but practirally nothing of the college towns of the far west, or the colleges themselves. j The i Diversity vt Oregon was founded in 187G. It is a fctnte Insti-i Why Not Raise Rabbits? Tn inn lie prosperity come and re main pcnmtm'iitlv in nnv community is tn develop its resource, and to produce ns mueh as possible from the surrounding aren of lnnd. As the rain sped pat the barren hills and land on tuv way to Mcdt'nrd, I no ticed that apparently the hills, pur tieiilnrlv, wen' devoid of nnv im provement, and I was wondering why heep and Lroats and rabbits could not find lots of life suMninim; brous- on these same hill sides. You have mi ideal climate for rnis- incr fur hearintr rabbits, and when one enlies talit mic-thinl of the popula tion of the United States wear furs in winter, and wild timmul.s are fast be- enmintr extinct, fur mnt be produc ed from tame ones. At leat three iiibbit skins tire necessary for the ordinary fur piece, and about 15 are noecssarv to line a man's coat.

Kugene, the seat of the university, was settled in and at the last census was the fourth city in size in the state. One gazet teer thus describes it: "Kusene. a banking city, capital of Lane county, Oregon, on the Willam ette river, at the head of steambcat navigation, and on the Southern Pa cific railroad, forty-five miles south; of Albany. It has iron works and machine shops, tanneries and manu factures of wagons, furniture, leath er, woolens, excelsior, sash and doors, etc. It is the seat of the Uni versity of Oregon and is partly sur rounded by an amphitheatre of lew mountains." To most people In New Bngland these facts are perhaps uninteresting. A good many of us flatter ourselves that we care only fcT the things "worth while." and remote college towns do not come within thai cate gory. Hut at Eugene a great host of young Americans are being prepared for their lifo work, as others are at Seattle, Portland, Berkeley, Palo Alto, Los Angeles and Claremont. And we are narrow-minded if we fail to develop a healthy interest in the higher education of that section of the country, even if it is three thou sand miles away. Kvery intersectlonal game like the one at Pasadera on Thursday helps to Btronymen our spirit of national unity, to make us consclcus that we are socially, industrially and politic ally bound to the people of the far thest Htates, and that , in spite of neighborhood prejudices and inter ests what affects one part of the great republic affects every other. Providence (It. I.) Journal, .'an. 3. was officially reported there were only about l2."0.000 skins marketed. So it should appear that there should he a biir opportunity for the small in vestor here to cni;Hi:e in the above business, and it is our opinion, that the more citizens who trv to improve their condition the more prosperous a community can become. Figura tively speakinir the United States is a L'reat cooperative nation, I buy some thing you trrow or produce, vou do the same in return. Therefore we should he united in helpintr each oth er, thereby helping ourselves. We have the area of land, climatic conditions for i'nr' bearing rabbits, etc., and we should encourage fur tMMinifaeturer p place their branch houses here, thereby also nivimr em ployment to several people and there is no reason why one can not increase our population 3,'tOO or 2,000 through this. one industry alone.
