The Only Daughter of the King and
Queen of England.

In the December number of Wom-
ans Home Companion appears an in
teresting account of the little
Princess Mary of England, who is the
only daughter of the king and queen
OF England. She is now Is years old.
She has five brothers, George, Albert,
Prince of Wales, John and Henry.
An extract from the article follows:
"At the age of four the little
princess began her studies, first in
charge of governess, and later, with
her five brothers, under the direction
of Mr.. Hansell. At eight she could
sew and knit, and wrote bold, round
hand. 1t is curious that, while all
the women of the British royal fam
lily have a clear, elegant chirogra-
ply, the men, even King George HIM
self, write boyish, uniformed hand
AT first, as in the case of most
girls who have only brothers in the
family, Princess Mary was rather in
clined to regret not being born a
boy; but she soon learned that she
could emulate her brothers in a ma
jority of things, and do some others
beyond their masculine power. Not
only physically, but mentally, she
has managed to gain their boyish re-
spect, not light thing to master,
as any girl with group of sturdy
brothers well knows. The Prince of
Wales himself once, upon being
asked if he liked the prospect of one
day being king, answered frankly,
Yes; then added with boyish earn
estness, but all the same it would be
good thing if | could turn the job
over to Mary. She is so very clever,
you see.'
There is nothing precocious about
the princess. What she learns she
learns by hard application. At eight
she was passable linguist; at twelve
tshe received the compliments of the
French ambassador on her mastery
of his language; German she speaks
well. She has yet to learn Italian,
but she is getting a fundamental
knowledge of Latin and Greek and
the piano and singing. Books of ad-
venture recommended by her broth
ers proved her introduction to litera-
ture, but her own tastes have now
assumed definite form, with Tenny-
son as her favorite poet. The queen
once found her reading his 'Idyls'
when she should have been asleep
History, in particular all pertaining
to Great Britain, is part of her train
ing, entailing visits, together with
her brothers, to the British Museum
for research among it's manuscripts
So, all in all, her outlook on the
practical side of education has been
both broad and serious, as befits one
who some day may be queen"

Helping the Enemy.

General Edward S. Bragg, the not
ed veteran of the Civil War, who died
recently, used to relate this anec-
dote General Prices army was
about worn out at Pea Ridge. His
soldiers struggled all over the field.
Price rode up in the midst of all the
disorder and shouted:
Close up, boys Blast you, close
up! If the Yankees were to fire on
you when you're struggling along
that way, they couldn't hit a blasted
one of you! Close upn-Kansas
City Star.

Too Much Waste on the Farms.

A. f. Chamberlain, agricultural
agent of the Great Northern Rail-
way, speaking at the Oregon Electric
celebration on October Is, made a
statement that is worth careful con-
sideratioA. He said that every year
the farmers of the Willamette valley
waste products enough to amount to
more than the total annual profits of
the Great Northern Railroad.
If Mr.. Chamberlain's statement is
true-and there is more reason to
believe that it is than that it is not
it can only mean that Willamette
valley farmers are losing a great deal
of revenue that they ought to be
getting. Waste means lost profits
worse yet, it usually means the loss
of profits that are already half made.
An instance is the straw piles that
are burned every fall after the
threshing season is over. Except in
unusual seasons, such as last sum-
mer, Willamette valley straw is clean
and fresh. 1t is unspoiled by mold
and rot, because it is seldom touched
by rain. It,has more food value than
much of the hay that is put up in
the middle west, where rain during
the harvest season is to be expected.
Yet a match is generally touched to
these valuable piles of forage, and
they go up in smoke, returning moth
ing to their owners except the slight
enrichment of the ground where the
ashes are.
AT a very slight expenditure this
straw could be utilized, and could be
made to take the place of the mar
ketable hay that is fed to the farm
animals during the winter. A. shed
roof erected over the straw piles
would keep off the rain and would
also provide shelter for the animals.
In this way practically all of the
stock necessary to operate the farm
could be wintered at an expense that
would be inconsiderable, and the hay
and grain that would otherwise be
fed could be sold.
The value of straw is clearly recog-
nized in the middle west and none
OF it is permitted to go to waste, al
though the quality is infinitely, poor
er than in Oregon. The saving eff
Elected by feeding straw goes a good
way toward paying for the farmers
automobiles.
The saving of waste is one of the
most important problems of modern
business. Great fortunes have been
built up by stopping little leaks and
saving by-products that had hitherto
gone unnoticed.
The same economies that have
made fortunes for trust magnates
will make money for the farmers
Every bit of waste means just SC
much money that fails to get into
the bank account. The sooner the
leaks are stopped, the sooner the
bank account will begin to fatten.

All Raised Here.

The Portland Oregonian and tele-
grams from Portland state that the
Ashland exhibit was gathered from
the entire Rogue river valley. Such
is not the case, the Ashland exhibit
being all raised within four miles of
Ashland. Medford won first prize on
pears, as did also Grants Pass, but
the exhibit which won the $3.50 and
the two cups was purely an Ashland
district exhibit and a major portion
OF 1t was raised on Mr.. loves ranch
without irrigation.

immense value to the newspaper pub
