Trend Of Thought In the Order Shown
by Matters Discussed In Various
States.

The general drift of Grange discus
sion, and the lines of thought which
the organization is bringing before it's
members throughout the country. may
be well understood from the following
topics assigned for discussion. They
are picked at random, from Oranges in

study.

NOVELTY AT OREGON GRANGE
Movable School of Agriculture Arouse.
Interest of Farmers at the
State Convention,

An interesting feature of the recent
annual State Grange convention in
the state Of Oregon was a movable
school of agriculture" that attracted
widespread attention. The Oregon
Agricultural college had the exhibit
in charge and the farmers were
nightly interested.
The exhibit consisted of a small
model school, with a suggestive pro-
gram of practical information which
the farmer could use in everyday
work, while members Of the college
faculty were present to explain the
exhibits and apparatus.
AS an outgrowth of the farmers in
stitutes there has developed an urgent
demand for more extensive educa-
tional system for the farmer The
movable school is suggested by the
college as a solution of the difficulty
so that, practically in their own
homes, all who desire may have the
advantage of moderately equipped
laboratories for technical study and
practical work in problems relating to
the farm and home.
The one-week program suggested by
the domestic science department in
cludes sewing, bread making, meats
and vegetables, home nursing, invalid
diet, and like subjects. The horticul-
ture department outlined three days
work in pruning, grating, budding,
spraying, apple packing, and similar
topics. The poultry department sug-
gests teaching the housing of fowls,
incubation and brooding, and the solu-
ton of other problems of the poultry
farmer.
The college planned to conducr
these schools at least three days at
time in each place, with three or more
departments of instruction, such as
domestic science, dairying, poultry
husbandry and horticulture. But few
can be sent out at present, since the
legislature refused the extension work
appropriation asked for this year, but
it is hoped that future legislature
may provide for this study of applied
science of housekeeping and farming.

Saving Money on MIX Cans.

In Michigan the State Grange is
rendering practical service to the
farmers by making a contract with a
large supply house to furnish milk
cans, thereby securing a much lower
price than would be possible If each
milk producer went out to buy his
own singly. Hundreds of dollars are
saved this year to the farmers OF
Michigan by this practical phase of CO
operative effort.

WORK In THE RIVER
SIDE SCHOOL

In the first grade at Riverside
last week the sand table was moved
over to the blackboard and turned
into the northern country where the
Eskimo live. Mountains and valleys
were made of the sand then covered
with cotton to represent snow. TIE
aurora lights were drawn on the
board with colored crayons. Songs
and finger plays were learned, and
while the story of the Eskimo people
was told, the children made bears,
dogs, Eskimo houses and Eskimo
people, ad placed them on the table.
A more appropriate week could
not have been selected for this work,
but as so many pupils were out on
account of bad weather, the table
will left all this week and some
more work done for the benefit of
new pupils just entering. Parents
and friends are invited to view the
interesting display.

sugar is produced In Louisiana, with
smaller quantities in Taxas, Florida,
Georgia, and South Carolina.
The sugar "habit" is evidently a
growing one with the people of the
United States and probably with
those of other countries, since the
total world production Of sugar, in
cluding all countries for which sta
tistics are available, has increased
so per cent In the last decade and
about doubled In Is years. In our
own case the consumption has shown
a rapid growth, the per capita con-
sumption having been, In 1880, 40
pounds: in 1890, 81 pounds! in 1900,
SO pounds, and In 1910, approximate
ly S11a pounds.
What Is the cost of this enormous
quantity OF sugar consumed In the
United States? This is more diff
cult to answer. The valuation OF
that broguht from foreign countries
and our islands is set down at about
$175,0 100000 In 1910, and the sated
value of that produced in the United
States, at approximately $4,000, 900;
though this comparatively high fig
ure when considered by the price
/ pere pound, Is. due to the fact that
the valuation is based upon the re-
fined article, while that Of the sugar
from abroad Is the value of the unre.
fined article In the country Of produc-
tion. II, however, we accept a gen
eral average of &c per pound as the
retail price paid by our people fol
the 7 1-3 billion pounds Of sugar
consumed by them in 1910. we should
get a total OF 1896, 100000, or ar
average Of approximately $1,000. .00(
day paid for sugar by the people
OF the United States.

DELINQUENT GIRLS FOUND
NEAR AMENT DAM

Two young girls, Gladys Freden.
burg, II, and Miss Burt. 16, both
of Medford, were found Sunday
night in cabin near the Ament dam
Both were taken into custody to
await orders from the Boys and
Girls Aid Society of Portland, to
which the girls will be sent.
In the meantime a search was
made for two young men who are
supposed to have contributed to their
delinquency. They are Roy Wilcox
of Grants Pass, and Albert Asher,
of Eugene. Neither is over 21 years
OF age. 1t was learned yesterday
morning that they left for Eugene
and in all probability were appre-
hended near that place and will
soon be brought back for trial In
Grants Pass.
The two young men were trapping
near the dam all day Saturday and
were expecting the arrival of the
girls that night in answer to letters
sent the previous day. The girls
followed instructions and arrived at
the dam on the motor from Medford.
Sam Sundry, the deputy fish
warden, discovered the quartet Sun
day, and leaving one Of his men to
keep watch, proceeded to notify the
district attorneys office. Deputy
District Attorney Johnston brought
the girls to the city, but the boys
managed to make good their escape
AS soon as they are brought back
for trial they will be charged with
contributing to the girls delin'
quency.

JUDGE LINDSEY GIVES
INTERESTING ADDRESS

Thursday the people of Grants Pass
had the rare honor of listening to
Judge Ben Lindsey as he recited the
story of graft and reform embodied
in '..The Misfortunes of Mickey"
Lindsey was escorted to the plat.
form by Prof. Turner and the Rev.
Robt. Mclean. The latter introduced
the speaker as man Who has dared
to grapple with one of the greatest
problems of the age and oni who
has found the heart of the boy.
The head of Denver's juvenile
court is of small stature, and were 1t
not for his black mustache and slight
badness, he would pass for boy
himself. The most striking thing
about his appearance is his dark
piercing eyes, which reveal kindly
and sympathetic nature.
He said that the hero of Mickey's
misfortunes was a type as we'll as an
individual, and that the troubles of
one were really the troubles OF 100,-
900 children who were In the same
boat with Mickey.
Mickey was little freckled
fellow who was the leader of gang
of petty law breakers, and he conse-
quently had seen the inside OF jail
more than once. Whenever this juv-
emile offender would be questioned
about his little associates Mickey
would refuse to enlighten the cross
examiner; for that would be dis
loyalty to the gang, and Switching
was the greatest crime In his sphere
of life. To them Thou shalt not
snitch" was the first commandment
and 1t was not surprising, therefore
that this little fellow would lie tc
the policeman who tried to bull,
him.
But when the kind hearted ant
ympathetic Judge took the little fel
! low In hand and assured him tina
he wanted to help the boy and no
to send him to jail, then the littl'
fellow told ALL Touch the boy
heart and you can save his soul.
The great fault with the state |
that 1t doesn't understand. TIL
child is the state, and as the stat
protects the child, 1t protects Itself
Once the state removes the boys fea
OF police and the jail, so soon will tn
cause for lying and stealing be re
moved He who doesn't understan
the psychology Of the child has n
business to have any official powe
over him.
When the little fellow stolldly r,
fused to give away the whereabou
OF his comrades he was exhibitin
the quality Of loyalty-though mi
directed. The near-sighted polio
man called 1t rebellion. He didn
know any better. 1t was the san
loyalty that the little fellow woul
display later fighting for his couI
try in time Of war, or fighting Il
influences OF civic corruption
times Of peace. The problem Is
divert the boys loyalty and eners
and enthusiasm In the proper cha
nels, and therefore the problem b
came twofo!d: First, to deal with hi
as an individual and secondly
