Cows Make Good Returns.

Brownsville-Harry Parks, farmer
of this vicinity, has given statement
of the net returns from his nine cows
for the past year. The total is $3.50
or an average of $73.33 each. Browns
vile is becoming one of the largest
dairy sections of the state. A num-
ber of the farmers have large silos and
put up hundreds of tons of cut corn,
vetch and clover for ensilage. It is
claimed that ensilage prepared in this
way is the best milk producing food,
also the cheapest.

OREGON State items OF INTEREST
SCHOOLS ARE AIDED.
Several Good Laws Were Passed at
Recent Legislative Session.

Several Good Laws Were Passed at
Recent Legislative Session.
\ Salem-The following is synopsis
OF the changes made in the school laws
by the last legislature:
Every district in the state must
maintain at least six months of school
each year. A county court of each
county must levy tax for school pur-
poses that will produce an amount
which will aggregate at least 81 for
each child of school age. If a districts
share of this sum does not amount to
$500 (six months at $50 per month";,
then the county court must levy upon
the property of such district a special
tax large enough to produce the differ
ence; provided that such special tax
levy does not exceed 5-mill tax. If
the districts share of the county school
fund and the amount raised by 5-mill
tax does not amount to $500, then The
county court must transfer from the
general county fund to the special
fund of such district an amount that
will equal the difference.
The apportionment to each district is
made 500 instead of $50 before the
per capita distribution is made.
Another change provides that a
county at any general election may
vote upon the question of creating g
county high school fund. When suct
fund has been created it is placed under
the control of county high schoo
board, consisting of members of the
County court, the county treasurer al
any general election may vote upor
the question of creating county high
school fund. When such fund has beer
created it is placed under the contro
of county high school board, consist
ing of members and the county schoo
superintendent.
County superintendent are giyel
authority to make a partial apportion
ment of the money to any district upol
the request of the board of directors o.
such district.
Secret societies, including fraterni
ties and sororities, which may now o
hereafter exist in any of the publi
schools of the state, including higl
schools, are declared unlawful.
The governor shall appoint by tn
first Monday in July, 1909, board o
five members, called the Board o
Higher Curricula. The members shal
serve without pay, excepting travelling
expenses. The duty of the board shal
be to determine what courses of studie
of departments shall not be duplicate
in the higher educational institution
of Oregon. 1t shall be the duty o
each institution to conform thereto
Any changes that are made shall be
come effective at the beginning of tn
school year following such determine
tion.
The outside doors and other exits Q
all school buildings shall be so swun
and hinged that they shall open Out
ward.

Ten Unions in umatilIa.

Pendleton-Ten local organizations
of the Farmers Educational & Co
operative union Of America have been
formed in this county and the number
will probably be increased to is within
the next few days. The two latest ad-
ditions are at Pilot Rock and Holdman.
Some of the sheepmen went in with
the farmers at Pilot Rock and there is
talk of erecting a joint warehouse,
which shall be used for the storing of
both wheat and wool. No definite ac-
tion was taken on the proposition, how
ever.

Pollen Travels Ear.

The pollen from the pine forests Of
ten forms yellow coating on lakes
or on the ocean, as far as 200 miles
from the shore, and has been mistaken
by peasants for showers of sulphur.
The pollen grains of the pine are pro-
vided with yellow vesicles, which
buoy them up in the air very much on
the principle Of box kite.

euiId Warehouse at Echo.

Through an arrangement with
the O. R. & N. the section houses are
to be removed to make room for large
warehouse to be erected in connection
with the wool securing plant. This
will relieve the necessity of construct
ing a switch to the securing mills. ID.

where he purchased the machinery for
his churn factory and rolling mills and
expects to have it erected and running

Ditch Break Floods Echo.

Pendleton-Echo was flooded with
water as result of break in the gov
ernment ditch at that point. The break
occurred just above the depot and the
water rushed down the hill at tre-
mendous speed. After the water was
shut off at the intake, one mile and a
half distant, water flowing at the rate
of 80 second feet had yet to find its way
into the streets. A large portion of
the town was protected by the railroad
grade, which turned the food.
