President Schaefer TaIks.t


President Schaefer answered the
question, what can the school do to
aid the peace movement" He said in
part:
THE greatest problem of the TWEEN
tieth century is the boy, with one ex-
ception-the girl. As soon as the girl
takes up the study of history, she be-
gins to wish that she had been born
a boy. Her textbook magnifies the
achievements of men and devotes very
little space TO the deeds of women.
TT seems 20 me that our text books,
our examinations and our instruction
should glorify the arts of peace above
the art of war. In other words his
tory should be taught from more ra-
tional point of view. Whilst it would
be wrong tc rob the soldier of just
share of glory, whilst it would be a
mistake to minimize the sacrifice and
services of the army and the navy, it
will nevertheless be wise to emphasize
the victories of peace above the vic
tories of war, and to teach history in
such a way that the pupil will write
the name Of the poet, the orator, the
artist, the inventor, the educator, the
jurist, the statesman, the philanthro-
pist in a place as conspicuous in the
temple of tame as that occupied by the
name of the victorious general or the
successful admiral.
whilst the teacher is intoxicating
proper ideals of patriotism, heroism
and public service, the pupil can be
taught to despise not only the bully
who is ever anxious to pick a quarrel
with weaker companions, but also the
nation that is ever ready to go to war
at the expense of weaker nations
Both teacher and pupil should distin-
rfcrI, =, Ii, -
war.
Peace the ShibboIeth.
Peace has become so great a shib-
boleth that the introduction of rifle
practice into public schools is now ad-
vocated as a peace measure. The ex-
perience of our recent wars, it is held
has pointed out that, while there is
no difficulty in case of war in getting
all the volunteers that the country re-
qUireS. and that can be given a reason
able amount of drill in few weeks, it
takes them a long time to learn to
shoot and unless they can shoot &C
curately they are of little value as
soldiers.
THE fact that boys at the age of
thirteen can learn to shoot with mar
velous accuracy should be correlated
with the fact that at the same age
and even earlier, boys can be taught
all sorts Of break-neck acrobatics. No
one would, on account of the skill
which may thus be acquired, be jus
titled in advocating the introduction of
either acrObatics or rifle practice into
the curriculum of our public schools.
Self restraint is often more difficult
than combat. Perhaps for police pur-
poses, if not for national protection,
we shall need an army and a navy
during coming centuries, but, as soon
as the three and a half millions of
teachers in the schools of the civilized
world shall begin in earnest and with
skill to inculcate sentiments of peace
and the principles Of justice and fair
dealing in the treatment of weaker ma
tons, we may hope for the limitation
of ornaments and the dawn of an era

Hoods SarsapariIIa

John Palmer bought the Norton
place four years ago, of 122 acres.
He is running twenty COWS, has 80
acres vetch, and the rest pasture.
He sells cream at Portland, getting
80 cents at Marion for sweet cream
from the separator. His skim milk
goes to hogs and calves. He gots
$160.75 for cream in May. He
bought the farm for $40 per acre.
He sells $500 a year off the place.
With a good granary, he houses his
oats and sells 1t off at 40 cents. a
bushel. At six per cent interest his
place is worth 800 an acre for
anyone who wants TO buy, but It is
not for sale, and hence should not
be assessed at that figure.

UNCLE SAM MAKES FARMS FOR
AMERICAN FARMERS.
National Irrigation Transforms MIL
lions OF Acres OF Desert Into
Productive Agricultural Lands.

The farmers of the United States
will be interested In an article
lately published over the signature
of c. j. Blanchard, Statistician of
the United States Reclamation Ser
vice, showing the vastness OF the
government irrigation projects now
being built under the provisions
of the national reclamation act for
the purpose of making new farms
for the rapidly growing number of
American farmers.
Mr.. Blanchard in his articles en-
umerates a long list of projects act
ually under construction, and an
other list held in allegiance awaiting
the time when the condition OF the
reclamation fund will permit their
construction. He shows that the
twenty-five projects now under con-
when fully developed,
viii add to the orop-producing area
OF the United States S.1sS.OOO
acres. or a cultivated area equal 10
the total acreage devoted to agricul-
tural crops in Connecticut, New
Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Flor
ida.
Three of these twenty-five pro-
jeets are practically completed; six
more will be in service this summer.
Work is progressing on all of them,
and their early completion may be
considered absolutely sure.
Thirteen additional projects held
in abeyance have an even greater
area than those now under construc-
tion, and there are in the west many
more millions of acres with water
available for irrigation-a great
field for further agricultural deyel-
opment, comprising one of our most
valuable resources in view of the
rapid Incl ease in population and the
necessity of continued increase OF
production.
The National Reclamation Act
provides that moneys received from
sales Of public lands in certain West
ern states and territories shall be
placed in a revolving fund that is
being used to build irrigation sys-
tens in the state which provide 1t. |

The Eugene Palmer Place.

The Eugene Palmer place was
bought by him four years ago for
$3.50 per acre and in four years, he
has clovered 1t up to $50. But 1t is
not for sale. The Palmer family
love the farm and are the best type
of Linn county grangers. Mrs.
Palmer is thoroughly devoted to
farm life and their sons and daugh-
ter are farmers and proud of the dis
tinction. The Palmers are Metho-
dist people and they think Rev. Nc
Dougal OF Albany is about right, and
in this they are not far mistaken. 1t
would be a good thing for the church
and the state II there were more Nc
Douglas. They have not tried to
educate their children into city,

practical tillers of the soil and Miss

upon her that gives many young wo-
men that weary, jaded. expression
and makes n man tired. She Is

and secretary OF the County Council.
Mr.. Palmer Is a rugged granger and
has left his mark In more than one

Campbell and w. S. U'Re: for the
University referendum. But 1t is as
n successful farmer We are dealing
with him. He has the finest field OF
clover in the valley-76 acres that
stands knee-deen TO a horse, and
will cut 3is tons to the acre. The
second crop OF seed gets him 100 TO
200 pounds TO the acre and is worth

VISITING WITH FARMERS

The editor of The Capital Journal
has spent four days the past week
on the farms of the Willamette val
ley, and can safely report that the
rains while not pleasant to travel
in have helped out the spring grain
and put the velvet on hops and grass
crops. The hay crop will be inn
mense. The hop crop is published,
mostly by bear int rests that want to
keep prices down, as being very
large. II is not safe to predict more
than 10000 or 10000 bales, instead
OF 100000 to 10000 bales as fore
casted in the Portland papers. Hay
is going to be a big crop, but the
prices will be good and It will pay
all who have It TO cut. to cut and
save as much hey as possible. Grain
crops are going to the minimum in
acreage, as clover and vetch are
coming into their place, with dairy
ing back of II all. Agents for cream
buying firms are securing the
country, and bidding up for the bus
iness. Roads in Linn county are
very good on the prairie, and their
bridges are all housed In and rooted
over and some are painted. At
one place In Marion county we saw
n road drag at work. We drove over
four miles OF road where It had been
used coming in over tho road to
Salem from the r. T. Geer place. II
makes n road as smooth as a pave
ment, and 1t is a pity the law does
not compel half the tax In each jis-
trict to be worked out with the
road drag. Especially after a rain,
as the drag destroys the holes that
hold water and smooths the road so
that Il beats down hard and does not !
beat up into dust. The road drag
prevents muddy roads and dusty
roads, and makes Il possible TO
travel them. Several miles of road !
are graded from Subllmity east and
n camp OF convicts are running a
rock crusher and a steam roller Is ,
putting down n broken rock track. 4
The best roads to travel with n good
roadster are those that have not (
been worked. They should either ]
stop plowing up and working the 4
dirt roads on the old plan. or put the .
road drag on them after Il rain. I
