Father Writes a Letter-Tells
how Half Grown Boys
Reel In Corvallis.

1t has always Oeeu uuueISloOo
that one must go away from home
to hear the news. In the Argus,
volume l., number 2S; published at
Albany, dated at Corvallis, and
signed Father" appears an ar
ticle in which some ofthe statements
will be startling in the way of news
to Corvallisites. In his article,
"Father" states that he has always
been opposed to saloons, and that
he voted for a dry town at the last
election, and that he and "hund-
reds of others are going to vote
for a wet town now. Here are some
of the things Father" says:
"When the saloons were running
here, we had little or no trouble to
keep liquor away from minors. The
saloon keepers dared not to sell it
to them. because by so doing, they
risked having their license revoked.
Today, young and old drink freely,
and the habit has spread among the
minors to an alarming extent. Let
me say right here, to the surprise of
many, the local option law is being
we'll observed. I do not think that
any man can buy a glass of liquor
in town. At least, so I have been
told by persons we'll informed. But
the quantity of liquor that is
being shipped in to individuals has
been growing until today, it is no
exaggeration to say that more 1iq-
uor is being used in the town than
when saloons were running. Then
we were never compelled to gaze
upon the awful spectacle of half
grown boys reeling along the
streets under the influence of liquor
This is now no uncommon sight.
II was taking to a professor of
the college the other day and he
told me that drinking had increased
among the college boys during the
last year. We had one of the most
orderly towns in the whole Will
lamette Valley a couple Of years
ago, but now, just walh down Main
street on Saturday evening and
see for yourself. The saloons were
driven out, but worse condition
exists. In jest, men say here, that
four saloons were closed but one was
opened when local option went into
effect; the one opened isthe express
omce:'
Father statements are print
ed here as matter of news, SO othat
Corvallisites can read some Of the
things that are being circulated
about their town. The misrepre-
sentations are so gross that they are
their own denial. The overstate-
ment is bound to react, md to
damage the cause in which they
are published. If there is such a
person as Father" in Corvallis the
brethren had better keep him out
of print or Benton will go dry by
an awful majority. 1t is safe
guess that many of those who op-
pose dry county dc not want their
locality painted abroad in the col.
ors that Father" gives it. "Half-
grown boys reeling on the streets,

"there is increased drinking by

The average man loes not save to exceed
ten per cent. of his earnings. He must spend
nine dollars in living expenses for every
dollar saved. That being the case he can
not be too careful about unnecessary ex-

save several dollars outlay later on. 1t is

Echoes and Architects.

''It is possible to make echoes" said
an architect. 1T Is, indeed, easier to
make than to destroy them. In the
past men built their great temples and
cathedrals with no thought of acous-
tics; hence when the preacher preached
echoes rolled freely amid the groinings
Of the roof, down the rows of sculp-
tured columns and round and round
the nave. With wires strung here and
with tapestries spread there, many Of
the echoes Of the old world buildings
have been obliterated. There are echo
experts-builders acquainted with the
science of acoustics whose speciality Is
echoes destruction. Sometimes their
tasks are hard. Today an architect
takes thought Of the echo. His build

why the Devil Ha. cioven Hoof..

Legends Of the devil are quite COM
mon in Ireland but the one which Is
most interesting and least known per-
haps Is that which tells why the prince
of the internal regions has split hoofs,
like those of a COW beast. Moore al
ludes to the legend In his story of st.
Kelvin and Kathleen at Glendalough.
In that story Moore makes St Kelvin
throw his former ladylove over the
cliff in order to be rid Of her importu-
mites, but the peasants of the Glenda-
Tough district give the story more po-
etlcal touch. They insist that 1t was
not Kathleen that was thrown over
the cliff, but that ii was Satan, who
had assumed the form Of the lady in
order to tempt the saint. The moment
the prince Of evil toppled over the edge
Of the yawning abyss he spread his bat
like wings and sailed away In safety,
much to the surprise Of the holy saint.
Later on the devil again attempted to
lay snare for st. Kelvin, but the saint
managed to get the arch fiend on holy
ground, where, of course he was help
less. While the devil was In this help
less condition Kelvin sawed off his legs
and attached cows hoofs TO the
stumps. Since that day Satan has been
cloven footed and will be until the end
of time.

THE SHEPHERD

An excellent way with young lambs
running with the ewes is to have a
pen made of boards In the yard or
pasture, with openings through which
the lambs will crawl, and in this keep

lambs cannot walk In this trough q
few handfuls of mixed cornmeal bran
and linseed meal are scattered quite
thinly. The lambs will soon find it and
will run in and out and feed at will

More Sheep.
From the reports l hear sheep will
be increased this year. The prices re-
ceived for wool and lambs have been
high compared with years back, and
all who have even few sheep seem to
be satisfied and are ready to increase
their flocks. The dog question bothers
some, but the dog who chases sheep in
this part of the country is sure of a
free pass to some other world, says a
New Hampshire man.

Don't sell the best and firstborn eve
lambs and keep the poor ones for
breeders.
Don't leave the sheep out in the wet
after they go to pasture. 1t will take
but few minutes to run them In, and
1t will be time well spent. Don't let
the sheep run in the old pastures I'M

Don't make any fence around the

EXIT JUNE HOG.
Coed Money Usually Made ON the Oc-
tOber Market.

toner market.
Ten years ago we fattened and sold
the last bunch of June hogs from this
farm. To grow a nine-months- hog
with practically five months Of winter
In the midst of his career and make the
transaction profitable every year was
what we failed to do, yet we had an
abundance of clover.
Later instead of fattening for the
June market we fed for the August
market. In some respects this was bet
ter. About that time | was impressed
with the success of relative who fed
a few hogs to be sold to the local
butcher about Sept %. He had discov
good at that time, and the prices were
above what we had received at any
time for June or August hogs. Could
we cut out some of the difficulties we
had encountered, utilize every resource
and reach this objective? This problem
r. L. Dean worked out as follows, as
he tells in Ohio Farmer:
Feeding the October Hog.
We decided to take the weights of
the hogs as frequently as was neces-
sary to discern the gains they were
making for the food consumed. We
discovered the hogs were making re-
turn for the grain consumed when fed
In connection with clover that was
much better than the prices for grain.
This sort of feeding was calculated to
make the hogs grow, but not to finish
them. They needed more corn.
Soaked Corn.
What shall we substitute for corn
ten months In the crib, hauled to bar
rels and submerged in water for TWEEN
ty-four hours? That which is nearest
like soaked corn Is corn with just
enough sap to make it palatable and
nutritious. On the farm there was
plenty of this by Sept 8. We could
not get it to the hogs in the necessary
quantities, for we were too busy. We
cut and hauled them some green corn
In connection with the old for a week
or two. When the ears were ripe
enough not to spoil when pulled off we
turned In the hogs. They had access
to running water and plenty of natural
shade, for the weather is often hot In
September.
Profits show Up Well.
The hogs made us 60 cents per bushel
net for the corn they ate, reckoning the
yield at sixty bushels per acre. Hogs
as we pastured and fed them during
the summer could be finished to bring
the top price in three or four weeks
time. AS a rule, prices are well sus-
tanned till Oct. 5, but by the 10Th they
usually break.
