New Jersey has adopted an
amendment to the divorce laws
of that state which provides that
where suit is brought fora cause
arising in another state divorce
will be refused if the ofense is
not by statute declared sufficient
in the commonwealth where
committed. Thus where New
Yorker has been deserted he can
not take a trip INTO New Jersey
with assurance of relief from the
matrimonial bonds. It would be
commendable if other states
would adopt such a law.

A bit of news that is of much
interest in Corvallis because

Before the Washington and

Washington faculty athletic COM

statement to the. effect that here
after no intercollegiate relations
will be held between the two in
stitutioas. This stand was taken
because the faculty has positive
information that three of the Pull

The game would not have been
played but for the fact that a
binding contract existed and a
cancellation of the contest would
have disappointed hundreds OF
fans. The athletic committee

George R. Kirby, at Woodstown, sent
the following bulletin to the State Board
of Agriculture July 29th.
We are having a much needed rain to-
day in this locality; pasture lands and
second-crop hay were suffering for mois-
ture; hay finally rounded out a good
crop fully up to the usual average, and
was generally housed in good condition.
Wheat harvest fully two weeks late, but
the weather has been fine for threshing
from the field, and considerable OF the
grain is in the hands of the miller and
dealer at about 90c. per bushel. The
yield and quality is good, averaging
twenty-six bushels per acre so far eport.
ed. Corn is making growth. Late to-
matoes are looking well and blossomipo
profusely. Potato digging commenced
last week. Crop below the AVERAGE
owing to scald on the lighter soil. Flies
are very annoying milk cows; SPRAYING
them with a carbolic acid solution has
become quite popular. Farmers are
