A Price Must Be Paid for Desirable
 Conditions.
 Through an article by Elizabeth Bis land, entitled The Harmless Necess- ary Truth" the discussion on weath and it's distribution, which has been proceeding in the North American Re- view, Is continued in the August num- Der of that periodical, The harmless necessary truth in question finds ex- pression in the old adage that you get for nothing, and deuced little for ha' - penny. The sympathy with the have nots," which one hears now so loudly and frequently expressed, has been by no means conflnd to the present age. Every indictment brought to-day lagainst our social conditions sounds like a repetition of charges which shook the European world a hundred years ago.
 Even socialism, from which so many expect so much, was tried by the early Christians, and in a generation it crumbled into ashes. Our social laws, Miss Bisland contends, are held to be responsible for deplorable conditions which are really due, in large mea- sure to drunkenness, incidence ls- honesty and other moral simperfections A price must be paid for desirable conditions of life In some form of ef- fort or abnegation, and those who lack these conditions simply find the price higher than they are willing or able to pay.
 How many of the factory girls who have to earn a living in the most pitt able circumstances would consider an opportunity, Miss Bisland asks, of changing their undesirable surround. ings for severice in the country? And she gives certain instances of men and women who, by thrift and self-control have earned completeness by doina work and bearing inconvenience which were intolerable to others who allow ed themselves to fall back into the pit Miss Bisland says:
 "All this will be sneered at as mere | ly the easy-going aphorisms of the we'll as if the greater number of the well-to-do of to-day had not been the ill-to- do of yesterday. As if they had not known, in their turn, what it meant to be i'll fed and shabbily cloth. ed; had not, in their turn, known how long are the days of poorly paid Ia- bor which seem to have no hope for a goal; as if they, too had not been oblig- ed to swallow down that same pride limpatience, passion and repugnance

A FR1urARIAN DIET.

A Unitarian diet consists of the fruits of trees like apples, oranges. ba- nanas and olives; the fruits of bushes 0ike entrants and raspberries), the fruits of plants (like strawberries and melons, lentils and beans and cucum- berG, the fruits of grasses { like wheat and barley and maize and oats), the fruits of nut trees ((from filbert to CO., coanut, together with some earth fruits Qike potatoes), and modicum of veg etables and salads To these may be added butter. milk, honey and cheese, although their production Is not so free from risk of contamination and animal infection as is the case with the pro- ducts of the vegetable kingdom and the world of fruits. Grown under healthy conditions, with diseased spec imens easy to detect and remove, it is far more possible to live healthily and well upon a fruitarian dietary than upon the products of the slaughter ouse.-Westminster Review.

pICTrREn HAY FEWER.

In Paris there Is just now proceed ing a seasonable discussion on hay fe- yer, concerning which an amusing in- stance of the capricious nature of the Infection is related. A lady was quite proof against catching the sneezings of hay fever from either hay or any other flower or plant except one. The mere sight of a rose psed to set her sneezing violently. Knowing her weakness, she carefully avoided these flowers, but one day she carelessly stopped before a still life painting representing a bas- ket of roses. Almost instantly she was seized with sneezing fit. Clearly inn agination has its part in the case.--- London Globe.

For some women a perfectly plain back is advisable, obtained by skill fully arranged inverted plaits or by the use of yoke. Oother figures, hollow in the back, may be bettered by a full ness of the petticoat back, achieved by shirring or grouped plating
 The point at which the ripping full- ness of the petticoat sides and front should begin should be determined by the emphasis or lack of emphasis in the hip curves. All these matters call for serious consideration, if the outer skirt is to hang perfectly; yet how many women bother over such problems?
 They may be most exactlng as re- gards their frocks, have them made by the best makers, spend money and time lavishly upon them, but they will not take the trouble to have the petticoats worn under these handsome froeks what they should be in order that the wellrnade frock skirt may appear at its best.

PANsIEs LIVED UNDER ALASKA
 SNOW.

The first snows last September caught the pansy bed at the experi- nent station in full bloom, This spring when the snow disappeared the plants were found green and fresh looking, with buds and half open blos- sons showing in their natural purples and yellows. A week later the buds began to open. The blossoms, though trife smaller than normal are per- feet in shape and color, and show no evidence of their eight monthes' hiber- nation,
 This is especially remarkable in view of the fact that the past winter was the coldest ever recorded on the Yu- kon. Readers will remember that the record for the first twenty-three days in January showed an average mini mum of more than fifty degrees below zero.-Rampart News

CONNECTS HIDDEN TREASURES

About two-thirds of the prisoners in here, remarked a guard at the peni- tentiary, believe or profess to believe that they have great quantities of boo ty hidden somewhere in this United States. Sometimes they persuade guards to believe that their stories are true
 T remember of one instance when a guard took a companion and drove to a spot which was mapped out on a plot by the convict and dug up acres of ground.Every time. the pick struck a hard substance the treasure was loca- ted in the minds eye of the guard and his companion. But they did not find anything and the convict had a laugh all to himself. Many have been fooled on these hidden treasures and it is an old gag now.-Columbus Dispatch.

accumulation of volcanic rock is
several thousand feet in thickness,

miles east of Lassen Peak. In the bed
Of cinders and ashes which surrounds

Just how long ago the last outburst
occurred is not positively known,
but is placed within 100 years. AL
though no eruptions has occurred since
the settlement of the state by white
people, there is no assurance that an
eruption may not recur in the Lassen

is no indication Of any such approach

THE MODERN FARMER
A PROGRESSIVE MAN
He Attends Institutes and Learns
New Methods for Profit
able Farming.

The Oregonian, as we'll as the other
big papers of Oregon, are of late devot-
ing considerable space to farmers in
stitutes AMI doing all possible to
arouse a stronger interest in them by
the farmers. The following article
appeared in the editorial columns of
the Oregoniau last Saturday and it
makes 20 manav strong points in favor
of the farmers Institutes that the
Courier herewith publishes it in full:
Members of the faculty of the Ore
gon State Agricultural College will
tour the Rogue River Valley during
the present month, lecturiDg at var
ious points for the benefit of farmers
and stockmen. The Importance of
these meetings and of the lectures
given upon various topics of interest
to farmers cannot be over-estimated.
We are living in a world of industrial
change, and in no department is this
more apparent than in that of agri-
culture. Old methods of farming
have literally passed away, and where
they have not-the worse for the
farmers.
This first of all industries has been
prone to follow lines set for it by the
necessities that waited upon primitive
conditions--to tread year after year
the same burrows, plowing and SOW
ing them with constantly dwindling
crops. Wheat was the staple product
in Oregon for so long that it was diff
cult to make farmers realize that they
could grow any other crop. There
was good reason for this in the old
conditions. First of all, it was i'm.
possible to ship perishable products
by slow methods of transportation to
our far distant markets. Wheat was
the only product that would bear the
strain of the long voyage and find at
the end ready market. Isolation
brooded over the great Pacific North
west and its farmers accepted the
situation and raised wheat until it
came to be second nature to plow and
sew and reap and thresh and gather
this cereal into barns. Habit is hard
to break, and this habit had become
ingrained into the very nature of
Oregon farmers, Hence they were
not quick to respond to the overtures
offered by widening market and
quick transportation for diversified
agriculture.
Within recent years, however, this
habit has yielded to persistent and
intelligent instruction in the better
way aud many Oregon farmers have
learned the secret of making farming
pay by having something to sell every
month in the year. That others may
learn this lesson and profit by it is
the object of these farmers meetings
the basic purpose, indeed, Of the
State Agricultural College.
The Grange supplies, and in years
past supplied, almost exclusively. the
social features of rural life. 1t went
beyond that and essayed to instruct
farmers in their interests as to prizes,
the time to sell, methods of transpor-
tation, etc., but it remained for a
later day to give instruction based up
on careful experiment in regard to
widening the scope of agriculture to
meet the demands of broader mar
ket.

Mule Farm for Rosue River Valley

jackson county is to have mule
farm, such as are becoming common
in Eastern Oregon and Washington
and which are among the hig money
makers of these sections. ]. w.
Dodge from Starbuck, Wash, has
bought fine 455 acre farm near
Talent, so the Tidings states, and will
at once stock it. He brings with him
from Washington a car load of brood
mares and a fine jack, and also car
load Of young mules.
The mines and timber in Rogue
River Valley will make for years to
come a big demand for freight teams,
and on long, hard bauls mules are far
better than horses. This was proven
last Summer ID hauling matte from
the Tskilma smelter. The horse
teams when they arrived in Grants
Pass from the 43 mile trip through the
heat and dust would be jsded and
almost worn out, while the mules not
fretting at all and sweating but little.
would come trudging into town but
little the worse for the sitting dost
and sweltering heat, and by the
next morning be all fresh for the re-
turn trip. At the opening Of the
season Capt. McIntire had som of
his wagons hauled by mixed teams OF
horses and mules. but soon all mules
had to be pat in as the horses could
not stand the work. like their long.
cared cousins.
