SUPPORT THIS SCHOOL.

If the legislature refuses to prop
erly maintain the agricultural college
it will do more than strike a blow at
education in this state. The oregon
agricultural college is more than an
ordinary school. 1t is an institution
that is closely linked with the eco
nomic progress of the state.
Corvallis, students not only re-
oeive general instruction but they are
trained along special lines, such as
scientific farming. horticulture, dairy
ing, engineering, mining and phar-
macy. This training fits them direct
" for useful citizenship. There are
now hundreds of o. A. c. graduates
at work in the various counties of the
state. They are following the lines
in which they received instruction and
the state profits thereby.
Because it is a school that fills a
big need and at the same time reaches
the common. people of the state the
attendance at o. A. c. has vastly in
creased. During the past two years
the school has had a president, DR..
Kerr, who has been bringing the
school up to its possibilities. Very
naturally this growth has made larger
appropriations for the school imper-
ative.
But the state can richly afford to
give o. A. c. all the money it needs.
Schools of that class deserve more
consideration than do schools that are
devoted principally to classical train
ing. Such instruction as is given at
Corvallis advances the material well
fare Of students while at the other
schools the work is more along the
line of literary culture.
The appropriation asked for this
year by the o. A. c. regents was cut
to the minimum by the board because
it was realized that the funds of the
state are limited. The appropriation
should be voted.
