FARMERS, INsTITUTE OARS.


The officials of the Oregon Short
Line are arranging to send two farm
ers' institute cars over the entire
system. One car will be used as a
lecture room and the other will con-
tain exhibits to be shown in connec-
tion with the lectures. The cars will
be put out at every siding where the
farmers are willing to congregate
and experts from the Idaho and Utah
agricultural colleges will give Illus
trated ectures on those subjects of
most interest to the farmers In the
various sections visited.
This movement was prompted by
the desire of the railway company to
assist the communities along its lines
in the production Of high grade prod
ucts which can be more easily mar
keted than those of lower grade. 1t
will also be productive of uniformity
in production and the growth of those
products which the big markets most
desire.
From the Utah Agricultural college
at Logan, Utah, will come men who
have made irrigation in the inter-
mountain regio ma study for many
years and who are exceptionally well
qualified to explain its workings to
the farmers. The methods of irriga-
tion practiced In Utah are similar to
those in vogue here and their demon
stration by the faculty of the Logan
college should be very profitable.
Professor III. T. French of Idaho's
experiment station at Moscow, one of
the best authorities In the west on
diarying and live stock breeding, has
been invited to accompany the care
and participate in the institute work.
The information which he Is able to
give on the breeding and feeding of
cattle, sheep and swine should be
eagerly sought by the farmers Poca-
