sutficieucy Of water, aud five streams

Within bounds \ failure OF the water
service would doubtless have doomed
the whole street. Mrs. Hall lost con-
siderable of her household effects, and
several OF her boarders lost portion OF
their belongings. The fire originated
from burning chimney, and spread
with terrible rapidity, that i'll short
time the entire roof was blazing. Too
much praise cannot be accorded the
firemen for their persistent, gallant and
iucessant work. No one dreamed that
the fire could he kept confined to the
upper story. Insurance $1,000, which OF

Wednesday evening DR.. Withycombe
and associates returned to Grants
Pass and early Thursday morning
they, accompanied by Charles Meserve
Of the Courier, went to Provolt,
where an institute of three sessions
was held that day. The College men
declared it one Of the banner insti.
tutes Of those they have held this
fall. The attendance was larger and
the farmers showed an alert interest
in the proceedings and the many
questions that they asked showed
that they were we'll up in the modern
methods Of farming, but were anx.
ious TO gain further know ledge.
The institute was presided over by
+. N. Provolt. who has fine farm
and who is one Of the progressive
farmers Of Applegate Valley. The
sessions were held in the church
building erected and owned by Rev
+ Badger and he willingly gave its
use free Of charge for the institute.
Rev Badger gave the address of wei.
come and it was fine presentation Of
the agricultural possibilities Of the
rich Applegate and Williams Valleys
and he commended highly the work
OF the farmers institutes and said he
expressed the wish to thank the pro-
tessors for holding this he first
farmers institute In Applegate
Valley. Dr. witbycombe responded
and gave most encouraging talk on
the outlook for Proyolt to bo the cen.

tricts in all Southern Oregon. The

Applegate and Williams Valley. all

minating it that Prof. Cordley recon.
mended was the burning at once Of
all onions that were found diseased d
and then to plant the land to other
crops for two or three years until the
spores Of the fungus had all perished.
and thereafter to practice rotation of
crops never growing onions oonsecu.
tive seasons on the same land. This
being the only sure means that had
been found for eradicating fungus
pests that originate in the ground.
This was the same treatment Prof.
Cordley recommended to the melon
growers about Grants Pass in their
fight against tho watermelon wilt
that is threatening to end the growing
of melons in Rogue River Valley.
Tuesday was spent by DR.. Witty
combe and Professors Cordlev and
Kent in drive through that part of
jackson county between Eagle Point
and Jacksonville for the purpose of
studying the soil conditions, the crops
grown and the methods of the farmers
of that section. to better familiarize
themselves with local conditions for
future use in their institute work

now for farmers to have their organi-
zations as 1t was for the people of the
towns to have their clubs and lodges.
With place where the fathers, the
mothers and the young people of
neighborhood could meet for social
pleasures and for the exchange of
ideas and experiences on matters per.
tanning to the farm and the home.
Neighborhoods that maintained

were more progressive and more pros
porous than those that were without

farms and bad roads were seldom

and their families were strongly
banded together IN grange or

to lead in the matter, localities could
have farmers institutes, lectures and
other public gatherings that would
do much tJward eliminating the dull
monotonous routine of farm life that
was such fruitful cause Of discon-
tent with the young people on the
farms. The Doctor strongly urged
that the farmers of Provolt vicinity
organize this winter grange as that
was an organization that had proven
a splendid success in its work wher-
ever introduced.
At the close OF the evening session
a vote OF thanks was given to the
professors for their giving such an
Instructive and profitable institute
and they were asked TO hold another
one at Provolt at their earliest con-
venienoe. A vote of thanks was
given to Rev. Badger in recognition
of his public spirit In donating his
church building for the use of the in
stitute and for his aid in making il "A

Jacksonville Session

The irst session of the farmers in.
stitute AT Jacksonville was held
Tuesday evening in the U. s. hall
Mayor Emil Britt, who with his
brother Peter Britt, has the second
largest vineyard in Oregon and who
are also the owners of several fine
farms in jackson county, presided.
Mr.. Britt is on enthusiastic supporter
of the farmers institute movement
and was one of the principal workers
in making the Jacksonville institute
the fine success that IL was. The
address of welcome was made by
Hen, VIM. NJ. ColvIg. who spoke of
the agricultural awakening that these
institutes would bring and of the
possibilities for Jacksonv lille to be-
come the center of as rich farming
section as it was gold mining sec
tion. DR.. Withycombe in his reply
to the address of welcome stated that
the red hills about Jacksonville had
already become famous for producing
grapes of size and flavor that could
not be excelled in the United States
and with such soil and climatic con
ditions as were here united would
make Jacksonville one of the noted
grape districts of the world, both
table and wine grapes. AS peach
district ii would become equally
famous. while all other fruits were
a success The rich bottom lands of
that section would under modern
methods make great dairy district
The next day forenoon and hn after.

were well attended by the farmers of
the vicinity, but noticeable feature
for institutes held In towns and in
marked contrast to the institute In
Grants Pass where there was not

numbers of business men I'm attend.
ance. Realizing that the develop.
ment of the agricultural resources of
the country about Jacksonville would
be most important factor in the
prosperity of their town, the business
men of that place took an active part
in promoting the institute and added
much to its success by their presence
at all three sessions.

a number of pests for Prof Cordley

making the short addresses were Rev.

The young lady was most practical
In her ideas, whioh she expressed In
pleasing yet forcsful manner. One
special strong point that she made
was the need and the benefit of
farmers organizations. Miss Sites
thought tho Grange organization
more fully met the needs Of farmers
association than any other organiza.
tion and she hoped that Grange
would be established In Applegate
