PEELING CHITTIM.
The Price is Five Cents in Alsea-
Large Quantities will be Peeled.

=
Chittim peeling is in progress in
the Alsea country, and large part
of the population is engaged in the
Industry Five cents per pound
is offered for the bark at Wade
Malone's store, according to Frank
Hughes, who was in town Monday,
but nobody is selling at that figure,
except in rare instances, when an
occasional small lot goes at that
price. Most of the peelers will hold
for better figure, and unless many
of them get 10 cents pound they
will hold over to another season.
1t is estimated that seven-tenths
of the remaining bark in the Alsea
country will be peeled this season.
Much of the bark on the railroad
lands is being peeled. The chittim
on these lands is disposed of to
peelers on basis of one-third to
one-half for peeling, the bark to be
delivered to the railroad company
at Malone's store. Willis Vidlto
has been appointed agent of the
railroad company, to look after
their interests in the chittim bust
ness. So far, practically no bark
has been delivered.

TO MEET SATURDAY.
Corvallis Ladies to Consider Exhibits
for Benton County at Fairs

To the Ladies of Corvallis:
Greeting:
The county court has appointed
me to assist in collecting an exhlb-
it of Benton. county products Tor
the Lewis and Clark fair. 1t is the
wish of the court to have the ex-
hibit prepared this year, so it can
be shown at the State Fair IN Sept
ember and at the National Grange
Fair in November, as well as at
the great fair the next year. Now
it seems to me that the pre-
parations of fruits, jellies, and
should be considered women's work
as well as needlework, painting and
other fancy articles.
In order to get together to talk 1t
over and to decide what can be
done, I ask the ladies of Corvallis
and vicinity to meet at the cour1
house on Saturday June 25th. al
2-3o O. clock to discuss the matter,
especially desire the cooperation
of the ladies of the Lewis and
Clark Club, the Grange and other
societies whose object is the advan'
cement of our county and city.
Let US make a great effort to have
the county take an important place
among the counties of our state al
all these fairs.
Respectfully,
MARY HARRIS Whitley.

all the boys in the institution do
not enter that course. All of the
boys do not want to study agricul-
ture, and go to farming. Many
a one of them is charged by mother
or father before he leaves home, to
study mechanical engineering. cleo
trical engineering, mining engin-
|eering, or some other applied sEi-
ence in which the salary to be re-
|ceived after graduation promises to
be larger than can be earned on the
farm. Many boy by birth and
nature has knack for something
else and to force him to study .agri-
culture and go back to the farm
might ruin first class mechanical
engineer and spoil a fine farm. The
question of how many students en-.
ter the agricultural course is con-
Itrolled partly by God Almighty.
partly by the parents. but mostly,
by natural. inevitable causes. and
are wholly beyond the reach or
control of college faculty or the
board of managers. At Corvallis,
the agricultural course is available
for thousand students ifthey want
it, it is made the most attractive of
all the courses in the institution
and if the classes are not filled,
whose would be the blame-whose
but the boys themselves? Inciden-
tally however, it is a fact, that. in
|spite of the critics, OAC graduates
a larger per cent of students in the
agricultural course than does any
other so called agricultural college
in the United States. At Cornell
this year, of 800 graduates, II were
lin the agricultural course. At
berkeley, California, recently, IN a
lclass of more than 200, one was IN
the agricultural course, and she
was woman. At OAC this year,
thirty per cent of the male students
were graduated from the agricul-
tural course.
4 AS conducted, the Oregon Agri-
cultural College seems to be a fairly
successful educational institution.
For two years in succession its at
Tendance has been between 500 and
1000. perhaps more than double the
attendance of any other educational
institution in Oregon. Attendance
lis sure sign of whether or not a
college is successful. Students at
tend, if they get what they want.
IT they do not get what they want
they do not attend. and their mum
jbers are accordingly limited, and
the institution correspoudingly un
; successful. Further, the general
government provides certain sum
to support the school. If only zoe
young men and women are educat'
ed from these funds, the money
c will be but one-third as successfully
spent as if 600 young people are ed
ucated from it. Attendance, there
y fore is a correct measure of an edu
lcational institutions success or fail
ure, and so tested, the college a

r. al in Oregon. Possibly this fac
!, explains why there are critics ant
