Mr. and Mrs. Arthur p. Stover, Of
Portland, were in Corvallis Wednes-
day, says the times. Mr.. Stover was
at the Long Tom farm sizing up the
result of the artificial watering there.
He is of the opinion that some time
in the distant future great canal
heading somewhere above Eugene,
will carry water to this entire section
and make 1t as productive as It should
be.
Mr.. Slower Is not slow In volcing
protest at the profitless and everlast-
ing wheat raising in this section. The
land has been "wheated" to DEATH"
wheated so long and continuously that
one can scare raise an umbrella on
much OF IT. II most Of II was placed
to clover, and given rotation of crops
II would be restored I'm five years.
Mr. Stover says Washington coun-
Il people secuted the worth OF irriga-
tlon, but are now coming around to
Il. An object lesson was tract OF
irrigated clover from which the fourth
crop is now being taken. one crop
without irrigation to four with irri-
gaton ought TO prove something. The
matter Of wheat raising in this section
suggests the following from a Nc
Minnville paper. which says:
"Why are thirteen acres bringing
a better income than two hundred
acres? Both tracts are well cultlvat-
ed; both excellent soil; both are three
miles from North Yamhill; both have
been cropped for 10 years past. But
the thirteen acres with less labor and |
less expense in taxes averaged bet |
ter net income than 200 acres? Ten
years i3 acres-prunes; 10 years, two
hundred acres, grain. Any limit here
for grain raisers? Go ask Preston |
Bushbee OF North Yamhill. or call |
him up by phone. He owns 13 acres
and the place Is not for sale When
he desires he takes his family to
southern California for the winter. 1t
is not recorded that the 20O-acre own
er can do SO"

Wailuku, Maui, Jan. 4. 49, Hun
dreds of people turned out on New
Years Day to see the Antiques and
Horribles and the merry cries of
children were heard all along the
route. The procession started from
Waikiki Fire Engine Co. No. 1
headed by Col. Carl Braun as mar
shall of the day. He wore the uni
form of one of the Kaiser's body
guards and won the admiration OF
the public. Assistant Engineers j.
f. Welch and Il. II. Rogers had one
of the hose carts drawn by a team
of white horses. The engine itself
shone brilliantly in its decorations of
variegated hues.
Mr.. Hanney of the new Waikiki
laundry had a wagon with a wash
tub and he himself representing an
American washerwoman, was hard
at work washing. Glen and Willie
Crowell represented an old delapida-
ted Chinese wash-house carried on a
wagon drawn by mules. Glen" in
his new role as a "Chinee washee"
gentleman made quite hit. In fact
his impersonation of a heather Chi
nee ironing clothes and sprinkling
water from the mouth was immense.
The U. S. mail wagon, the Devil, and
many other town characters were
well represented
The Antiques and Horribles after
their return from their invasion of
the quarters of the Maui Wine Co.
were drawn up by the marshal in
battle formation in front OF the
grand stand ut Wells Park and there

FARMERS INSTITUTE
HOLDS ITS
ANNUAL MEETING

The Farmers Institute held its
annual meeting last Saturday after
noon and evening. During the first
session the following officers were
elected for the ensuing year: w. T.
Pope, president; f. G. Krauss, vice
president VIM. Weinrich Jr., secre-
tary and treasurer; and II. S. Hos
mer, =. l.. Horne and Jared G. Smith,
directors. The report OF the treas
urer showed that the finances of the
institution were not in the best of
shape, due mainly to the fact that
many members had not paid their
dues, and ways and means were dis
cussed to remedy this defect.
During the evening session papers
were read--one by Dean W. r. Pope
on "The Agricultural College," and
the other by Jared G. Smith, on THE
Relation of the Farmers Institute to
Education"
Mr.. Pope ran over the various
courses of education which would be
pursued in the college and told OF
the work which he expected to do.
He stated that the first examinations
would be held about the end of the
present month and that the work In
the preparatory course would be
commenced about February /. The
college course is expected to begin
with the opening of the September
| term.
Jared G. Smiths paper was along
the same general lines, showing the
relation which the Farmers Insti-
tute had to the college and to the
Experiment Station. He said that it
was more nearly affiliated with the
college than with the station and
that the Institute should be the
means of translating the work of the
college to the farmers. 1t held an
important place in the work that was
being started and also stated that 1t
was greatly due to its efforts that
the Agricultural College had become
a reality.

INTEREST
IS NOT EXEMPT

The Tax Appeal Court is reversed
and the Tax Assessor upheld in his
assessments by an opinion handed
Town this morning by the Supreme
Court in one of the pineapple cases"
that Of the oahu Railway & Land
Co., the Dowsett Co., Ltd and John II
Estate, Ltd.
The question involved was whether
or not a lessons interest in land in
actual use by the lessee for the pro-
auction of pineapples is exempt from
taxation under Section 1928 of the Re.
vised Laws. excepting from taxation
pineapple land, even though the lessee
has covenanted to pay all the taxes
and the rental reserved is a sliding
enc.
In the case of the Tax Assessor VS..
Wood, which was recently decided by
the Supreme Court, 1t was held that
the lessons interest Is not exempt
rom taxation. The new facts in the
present case the Court holds to be
immaterinl and do not affect the mer.
its of the question. The decision
therefore, is merely conflrmatory OF
the former opinion.
