Cynicis,ns.

An the difference between men and
women is that men say what they
don't mean. while women don't mean
what they say.
Love is house with many stories.
and to hc happy one should never
climb beyond the first floor.
1t is one of the curiosities Of sex that
a woman will face any number of men
boldly and quail before one woman.
Love is an easy lesson when one has
a capable teacher.

JUDGE SAYS JAPS
CAN'T BECOME CITIZENS

Norfolk.-Federal Judge Edmund
Waddeil, Jr.. of the United States
court for the eastern district of Vir-
ginia, in the application for natur-
alization of Namyo Bessho. "chief
steward" in the United States navy,
denied the petition. holding that un-
der the federal statute no japanese or
alien. except of white blood. or OF
African descent or nativity. can be-
come an American citizen even though
he has been in the service of the
United States navy or marine corps.
Bessho claimed the right of natural
zation by act of congress of July 90,
1894, giving aliens of the age Of 81
years and upward who had served
honorably in the United States navy
or marine corps, the right to citizen
ship after proper court form.
Judge Waddell ruled that the act
of 1894 could not repeal by implica-
tion the statute of 1876, and that there
are no direct terms of appeal
Bessho is preparing to appeal from
the decision.

CORVALLIS UPHELD BY
UNIVERSITY ALUMNI

Portland-The Portland Associ-
alton OF University of oregon Alumni
has gone on record as opposing the in
voking of the referendum against the
appropriation for the oregon Agrlcul-
tural college. Last night the associ-
alton drew up resolutions expressing
it's friendly feelings for the college.
The appropriation Is called reason
able and proper" and 1t is set forth
that the referendum "would seriously
cripple the effective work and de-
velopment Of the college for two
years The alumni pledges itself to
give the appropriation It's support at
the polls If the referendum petitions
are filed.
The University Of Oregon passed
through the same trouble year ago
concerning its own appropriation and
realizes that the institution was
placed practically at standstill
while the decision was pending. There
fore in spite of the rivalry existing
between the two institutions 1t has
quickly shown its sympathy and good
wishes.

To the Editor of East oregonian:

TO the Editor OF East OreBOnldn.
1t is certainly pleasing to note the
consistency and sound judgment with
which the East Oregonian supports
the movement for more mixed systems
of farming in Umatilla county. There
is no question as to the correctness
OF these conclusions. Agriculturally,
Umatilla county has in store very
promising future, but the full reali-
zation of her agricultural greatness
will never be reached with the one
crop system. The slogan for Umatilla
county farmers should be better till
age and a wider range OF production.
More hogs, dairy cows, draft horses
and other live stock should find a
home on the splendid wheat farms OF
that section. This may seem agrl-
cultural sacrlege at this time when
wheat commands a dollar a bushel.
Despite these values, however, it will
be better I'm the long run If mixed
farming is followed. Land fertility
must be maintained. This may not
be OF immediate interest in section
so phenomenally rich as Is a large
portion Of Umatilla county. Neverthe-
less there is a limit to the plant food
in all soils Perhaps II may not be
amlss to show TO what extent this
exhaustion Is taking place. For ex-
ample Umatilla county has probably
produced an average OF about four
million bushels of wheat annually for
~,
ic acid and potash, which, however
are valuable plant food elements. and
estimating each ton of wheat to con-
tain forty pounds Of nitrogen, worth
twenty cents per pound, this will rep
resent total value of nitrogen taken
from the soils of Umatlla county dur
ing the past ten years of $9,6OO.OOO
This tremeduous loss is significant for
the fact that practically nothing has
been returned to the soil What is the
remedy? Smaller farms, field peas,
alfalfa and more live stock, especially
hogs.
Outside of the irrigated sections,
Umatilla county has not enjoyed the
increase OF population to which her
great area of fertile soil entities her
There is no question but what thous-
ands Of acres of wheat land in the
vicinity of Adams Athena and Wes-
ton will successfully grow alfalfa and
even fruit without irrigation. Not
only alfalfa and fruit can be grown
but a great variety of other agricul-
tural products. thus making II pos
sible to be the home of n large num-
ber Of prosperous small farms. This
will mean stable agriculture. larger
production and greater local and
general commerce. AS rule the
smaller the farm unit the greater the
general prosperity.
Bonanza farming and the one crop
system are not the best agricultural

to defraud by means Of the recently

The Kilgannons each furnished $1O,-

Walker pleaded guilty and was re-

The labels Walker is said to have
