However, in defense, we must state that we believe we have done con siderable in this line in view of the difficulty we have experienced in obtaining the reliable information that we need to make our articles practical. One must realize that a small weekly newspaper eannot afford the staff that would be nec- essary to cover the field completely and that we must rely mostly on the dairymen themselves to come to us and furnish us with the required data. We have found it difficult to get them to do this. Again, we will leave it to anyone to judge whether we are neglectful of our duty any more so than other papers of our size and kind in the We are willing to enter a state, contest with any other news medium of our size regarding this subject. This, we realize however, might not excuse us from devoting more of our space to the subject in the future than we have in the past; but we must have help.

That is the local company of the National Guard. Company K has made a remarkable agent and the drainage specialist of the O. A. C. extension service, in the opinion of farmers who attended the drainage demonstrations held recent ly. Although most of the work was done on individual farms one com munity drainage ditch involves drain age of some 50 acres of the finest potato land in the famous Siletz val ley. Chris Larsen, owner of part of the 50 acres said: “My eight acres produces nothing now, but with that ditch in there it will be as good as any.”—Oregon Farmer. • • • The Observer renews its suggest- ion that Polk county adopt the sys- tern of making road repairs by con tract.

One of the wob- blies, it is reported, has been here for a week or two and another carie in on the Charm last evening. He handed out literature on the boat but was careful to hand it to only such persons as he thought might be like ly sympathizers. He is said to be the ringleader in this section. Several members of the organiza tion were recently arrested in other parts of the county for circulating literature, the arrests being made under the criminal syndicalism act which is a state law that makes an outlaw of the I. W. W. organization. The defendants have been put out on bail. At Tillamook recently a trial on a similar charge resulted in a disagreement on the part of the jury.
