A farming demonstration train
will be run by the o. r. & N.
Co. through Sherman, Gillian
and Morrow counties in October
that is expected to aid the farm
ers of that section of the state in
the more intelligent cultivation
of the soil and in improved farm
ing methods. Lectures will be
delivered by agricultural college
experts, who will be on the train
and demonstrations of farming
practice will be made. DIR. James
Withycombe, director of the
Oregon Experiment Station, will
be at the head of the party of
lecturers and the train will really
be an agricultural college on
wheels.
That the passenger train SER
vice on the o. r. & N. between
Portland and Huntington has in
creased $50 per cent in the last
six months is the statement of
General Manager 0'Brien. This
shows the remarkable gain in
passenger travel throughout the
Pacific Northwest. From two
trains daily each way between
the two points named six months
ago, the railroad company has
found it necessary to increase
the number of five daily in each
direction. Much of this added
travel is of course due to the A
Y-P fair but a large part of it is
attributed to the increase of pop
ulation in this state and the influx
Of new settlers.
One hundred dollars is offered |
by Phillip S. Bates, secretary of |
the Oregon Threshers, Associa-
ton, for the best bushel of wheat
grown in Oregon. An additional (
500 will be divided as secondary |
prizes. All exhibits should be
shipped to The Dalles, Saturday,
November q, where the entries
will be judged and prizes award
ed. The contest will make a
wheat show that will be held in
connection with the annual con-
vention of the Oregon Threshers'
Association December 2 and 3 at
The Dalles. There is no entry
fee and all entries should be sent
forward in standard two-bushel
grain sacks. with the growers t
name attached and stating where {
the grain was grown.

Cats Watching sparrows.

Every afternoon just before twilight
a row of cats of all ages, stages,
gauges, breeds, tribes and then few
other kinds thrown in to sort of even
up the balance of things, can be seen
IN the yard next to st. Andrews
church, at Eighth and Shipley streets.
All of them are squeezed as close to
the wall of the church building as they
can get, and there they lie in wait for
sparrows which infest the creeping
vines that grow all over the wall of
the church on the south side.
Every moment or so some luckless
sparrow alights too near the ground
or chirps too loud, and some cat i'm
mediately makes running jump up
the vine, and before the bird can fly
from under the leaves it is cat food.
Sometimes as many as Is can be seen
in row watching for their evening
meal Of Wilmington News.
