I.aurens is among the too few sec
live and growing interest in dairying
SO great is this interest that the time
is about ripe for the formation of a
local dairymens association, or bet
ter still, branch of the State Live
stock association. With such an or
ganilation in their midst | venture
the assertion that there will soon
cease to be much of demand for
heterogeneous fertilizers in this SEQ
ton. In fact Judging from the size
of many Of the cotton stalks | saw in
this neighborhood, nitrogen is even
now not the greatest need of much
OF this soil.
When we learn that Laurens Is
the home of that wideawake dairy
man and president of the State Live
Stock association, Mr. w. ID. Byrd, one
is not surprised at the unusual inter-
est in dairying. Even if such men as
Byrd and Dendy should settle in less
progressive communities they would
soon prove the leaven to start the
whole community to rising"

may be fairly nutritious when fresh,

who is feeding his hogs upon such

they show symptoms OF cholera than
he would be at being attacked by

and ptomainc poison are very similar,
and it is more than probable that much

When will our people recognize the
fact that there is a very close resem-

the feeding of beef entrails is not a
common practice-largely because they
are not always easy to obtain-yet il
is to often the custom to lay aside the
inferior and damaged corn for the hogs

hogs, in pride have said to me, 1--WE

proud of his hogs. The hogs could
not speak, so did not get their opin-

One OF The Best.
This was the first opportunity
have had of really seeing something
of Laurens county, and it strikes me
that this is one of the best OF the Pied
mont counties. Not that the soils them
selves differ so materially from the
rest OF this fOrmation-they are the
usual good red clay but the general
contour of the land is much less brok-
EN- than other sections. 1t is more of
a rolling than a hilly county and
saw many fields of apparently large
acreage i'm which the slope of the land
was so gradual that but few terraces
were even now deemed necessary and
many of these could be dispensed with
if deeper plOwing was practiced.
AS consequence of these gentle in
clines, much less washed and quilted
land was i'm evidence, and the whole
country presented an appearance of
good farming that was a delight to see.

POMONA GRANGE RESOLVES.

The following report of the meet

with nine distinct questions, and
SHOWING the Grange, as an organiza-

WILL HOLD INTERsCHoLAsTIC

After many weeks of uncertainty
II has been finally decided that the
annual interscholastic track meet in
which all of the high schools of east
ern Washington take part, shall be
held in Pullman this year. For long
time 1t has been thought the meet
would be omitted, because in past
years 1t has been a losing venture
and the cost has been so far in eX-
cess of the receipts that it was felt
the college could not afford it this
year. After much discussion among
the faculty a vote was taken at the
faculty meeting recently and it was
unanimously decided to hold the
meet this year. This is welcome news
to all who are interested in Pullman
bringing to Pullman of hundreds of
young men and women who have fin
ished or will soon finish high school,
and these are the people from whom
the student ranks are recruited. 1t
means the addition of scores of stu
dents to the college next fall and that
Pullman will entertain hundreds of
visitors from all parts of the Inland
Empire on May Is and IA, as the
latter date is the one on which the
meet will be held.
The usual interscholastic commit
tee, composed of Prof. Charles limb
lin, chairman, Prof. F. A Thompson
and Mr. Warner, will be in charge
of the meet this spring. Some slight
changes in the manner Of conducting
the meet have already been made
and today letters to all the high
schools will be sent out, outlining the
program and plans for May IA.
All the accredited high schools of
eastern Washington and the high
schools at Pendleton, Ore; Lewiston,
Wallace and Standpoint, Idaho, are on
the invitation list now in the hands
of the committee. 1t is quite possible
that many of the three-year school
students will eventually be invited
to enter the meet, that matter now
being under adyisement by the COM
mittee.
The expenses of four athletes will
be paid from each school to the meet.
The principal change will be in the
public speaking contests, which are
conducted in connection with the ath-
letic feature. In this department each
school will enter a contestant, chosen
! by competition at each school. In
stead of bringing the entire number
of contestants to Pullman, however,
the Grafton prepared by each con-
testant, which must be original, is to
! be forwarded in advance to the col
lege and the English department at
w. S. c. will select the 1 0 best writ
ten, to be delivered on the evening
of May | 8 in the college auditorium.
The committee has started work al
ready on the trophies, cups, medals
and place ribbons for the meet, which,
| while less in number than awards
| formerly given out, will be more val
liable than those offered in the past
! years.
