on that. A thicket of wild roses
along the big irrigation ditch gave the
excuse for naming it "Briarwood, =

sacrificed since.
IheN knew Grom the books a
great deal about intensive farming:
now to make several hundred dollars
per acre besides living cheaply and
simply; SO the first year they tried
about twenty acres, supplementing it
with poultry and COWS, which every

least try Next year the intensive
farming was confined to four acres.

course was thorough and stands the
test of all demands by the growing
family; and as for classics-well. the
thing began with the exchange of
Latin translations for solutions in
trigonometry: but on the whole they
agree that ranch life is great even
though they would have appreciated
many times one of those monthly

be master of the Pomona Grange is
truly an honor; so With the two boys,

THE LURE OF THE SOIL

| The subject of this sketch, Roy d
Bailey, was born in Wisconsin. where
ne received his early schooling, finish

Utah was attracting attention to those
looking westward; so the young grad

cultIes confronting the early settlers
OF that locality, passed on to the
great northwest and took up teaching
In Seattle schools, when there was
only one high school building and six
teen teachers. Later on he was sup

exhibit at the A. Y p. in conjunction
with Professor Dewey.
Having taken his life's partner cat
NeWberg- on the Hudson) before COM
ing west, he had no further excuse
for retracing his steps, and together
they had thought and planned of the
time when they should take part in
the soil development of the rich lands
which the government was making
attractive and profitable by irriga-
ton.
Being the third generation to be-
long to the professions, ne doubt

the open country life offered better
educational opportunities for their
boys than the best of school systems
in cities. Most men have been reared
or had some experience in rural life,
but the subject of this sketch had
never performed any outdoor work or
exercise other than football but to-

be a miniature affair at best, but
there is material for start and I
think we should make it. We would
make an effort to get out the various
types of animals, including the ponies,
and give a portion of the program to
them. Lady riders and thei. mounts,
driving horses. draught animals and
such. including the Shetlands, would
be included. Some way VIII be de-
vised of getting them out. We want
to make provision for the horse which
is used for pleasure, gent lemen and
lady drivers and such things, so that
owners can have an opportunity to
compete.
District Flag Race.
Another thing proposed and which
will be worked up will be the district
flag race. That will give the boys
with fast horses an opportunity to
display themselves. This will be re-
lay race, the flag to be carried each
day from relay to relay and the WIN
ming riders to be matched UP on the
last day of the event to determine the
state champion Such contests bring
out considerable enthusiasm and if
the contestants are well matched that
enthusiasm increases we are in hopes
of being able in these ways of fur
nishing interesting spectacles as'well

proper care, it would have lasted

"A peculiar thing about this three

Don't worry overmuch if you can't
fit into the grooves carved out by
men who have gone before. Greatness
lies in making the grooves, not in
fitting into them, which is the peculiar
province of mediocrity. What passes
for success may be attained by fitting
yourself to conditions as you find
them; real success lies in discovering
exactly what conditions are and in
applying them to your purposes or
making them over until they suit.
No original man was ever happy in
the beginning. Genius is constantly
bruising itself against the all too palp-
able barriers of custom Yet to sur
render is to be useful in but small de-
gree: to fight intelIigently and with
intent to build up rather than to de-
stroy is to render society its most nee
essary service.
The old ways are all but barren;
the new ways alone are worth travel
ing, if one have great ambitions. Those
who follow can do all that needs to
be done in the old way; he who would
lead must blaze the trail, and it is the
pioneer we need
The unmarked trail is never appar-
ent It begins in little things too small
for the ordinary eye. He who found

noted the little leaks in unoreanized
industry made great com binations of
capital and genius possible. with their
increased economy and effectiveness,
and, by creating that possibility, re-
made his times.
Eyes to see a little need, and great
courage to find that which shall meet
the need, despite discouragements,
are all there is to leadership. And
neither that vision nor that courage
is bred in worry over ones failure
