THE BURIAL OF SIR JOHN MOORE

By Charles Wolfe. Not a drum was heard, not a funeral
 note,
 As his corpse to the rampant We hur-
 ried. Not a soldier discharged his farewell Der the grave where our hero was
 buried We buried him darkly at dead of night, The sods with our bayonets turning; By the struggling moonbeam's misty
 light,
 And the lantern dimly burning. . No useless coffin inclosed his breast, Nor in sheet nor in shroud we wound
 him, But he lay like a warrior taking his rest, With his martial cloak around him. Few and short were the players we said, And we spoke not word of sorrowi But we steadfastly gazed on the face of
 the dead.
 And we bitterly thought of the nor
 row. We thought. as we hollowed his marrow And smoothed down his lonely piiiow,E That the foe and the stranger "ou'u
 tread OCT his head, And we far away on the pillow. Lightly they'll talk of the spirit that's
 gone
 And OCT his cold ashes upbraid him; But little he'll reck, If they let him sleep In the grave where Briton has laid
 him. But half of our heavy task was done When the clock toiled the hour for re-
 tiring; And we heard the distant and random(
 gun That the foe was sullenly firing. Slowly and sadly we laid him down, From the field of, his fame, fresh and eory: ft- We carved not line, and We raised not
 stone.
 But we ieft~ksss alone in -his slarys

PROFITABLE FARMERS MEETING THURS
lCoucluded From Flrst ragel

A. G. gave an address on general
agriculture. Prof. Scudder has
almost become a Harvey county
resident during recent years as
he has made frequent trips here
and each time he finds greater
development and progression.
His talk was thoroughly enjoyed
10y all in attendance and his ad-
vice will result in a good to the
entire country. He insisted that
the valuable crop on dry farms
in Harney county was alfalfa for
seed and not for hay.
Mr.. Breithaupt was down for
an address but as it was the
noon hour before he was called
upon he declined and the meet
ing adjourned. This was a par
ticular good feature Of the fair
week that will result in immed-
late good. The meeting was at
tended by many farmers who
went away with ideas that will
be put to practical use.

The Science of Farming

If the worlds attention de-
termines the Importance of n
science, the science of farming
is receiving deserved recognition.
For the world is now certainly
giving very much attention to
the farm and the people who
work upon it.
This is not to be wondered at,
for upon the farm and its pro-
ducts depend all other industries.
Without this science all other
things must fail. Whereas the
farmer could, if necessary, make
a fairly good shift at doing with
all the rest.
Knowing how is just rs valu-
able on the farm rs any other
industry. The subject of dry
farming is an illustration very
much in point. One man eNper-
imented until he learned the Sc
cret and as a result many people
haye prohted. What he learned
does not seem very wonderful,
but it was the thing needed to
be known, and in the semi-arid
west, where crops are grown by
his method, they deem it quite
an achievement. 1t always pays
to study ones business. Pine
Valley Herald.
Some of the most valuable
courses, for those interested in
dry farming at the Oregon Agri-
cultural College are those in the
agronomy department in which
soils, field crops, irrigation and
drainage, farm mechanics, and
farm management are consider
ed. In each class, besides the
class room and laboratory work,
the students are given actual
field practice. Experimental
crops are grown under various
soil and climatic conditions. and
the work at the different expert
ment stations and demonstration
farms in dry farming regions is
discussed in detail.

Saving Clover Seed Crop

Following is what the CroI
Expert tells in regards to the
manner of how to control midg,
which distroys the clover seed
Dasyneure Leguminicola Lint, &
clover seed midge which pre-
vents the formation of the SEED
in the blossom. has been report
ed as abundant in various parts
of the state, and A. l.. Lovett. of
the crop pest force of the Oregon
Agricultural College, has been
making investigations.
England, Ontario, and most of
our states where red clover is
grown are troubled with this
pest. as the red clover is its fav-
orite host plant says Mr.. Lovett.
The white clover, alsike. and
possibly the Mammoth clover are
also attacked. The layae enter
the flower buds and feed on the
contents of the ovaries, prevent
ing the formation of the seed.
The injury is more serious each
year that the field is allowed to
run.
The adult female fly is so
small and active that it is seldom
seen in the field. 1t has long
slender legs, a single pair of
wings and a pinkish body. 1t is
about 2 millimeters long, and
when the ovipositor is extended
nearly 6 millimeters IN length.
1t has many natural enemies in
the middle west, and several
methods to control it may be
used. Pasturing the field in the
spring or early summer destroys
the midges and varies the time
of the main cutting for seed. III
the hay crop is cut early it will
slightly reduce the yield of hay, !
but it will insure a heavy seed
crop. The seed crop may be |
moved back just after it starts,
and this will delay the heading
enough to miss the second brood |
of flies.
Near Portland the maggots
were found in large numbers in
managers where clover hay was
being fed, but as yet it has not
been found that the presence of
the maggot is detrimental to
stock or that it lessons the vol
ume of hay.

Freighter Taboos Booze
'Baccy and Sunday Work

A freighter with the biggest
and the finest looking outfit seen
in Bend for many n day pulled
through town Saturday. bound
for Burns. What is even more
remarkable than his outfit was
this particular representative Of
the genus skinner, if trust
worthy report is to be credited,
neither drinks, nor smokes, and
never works on Sunday. Also,
il is reported, he never swears.
All of which isn'ta Sunday school
story, but n solemn and probable
fact, not to mention a glorious
example for erring brothers of
his own profession and others
straying through different walks
Of life.
The name of this paragon
freighter is l.. II. Kennedy. He
halls from Burns. His outfit in
cludes twelve fine horses and
four wagons. When he left for
Burns three wagons carried about
1900 pounds, and in addition
there was water and feed
wagon. The total weight of the
outfit, including wagons, is plac-
ed at over 25. 900 pounds. About
70 miles a day will be averaged
on the l40 mile trip to Burns.
On Sundays, say auto drivers
who pass him, Mr.. Kennedy
lays off" entirely. He has the
reputation of treating his horses
wonderfully well, and the results
of this humanity were evidenced
by the remarkable way in which
the teams responded to his quiet
orders when swinging the long
string of wagons through the
streets. Bend Bulletin.

Another innovation in the pub

directions of State School Sup

intended to reach every school

THE purpose of this course is
to be offered free to the general
public a series of lectures to be
given by public spirited men and
women of the state, says Super
intendent Alderman in an an
nouncement he is preparing.
The lectures will be on topics of
state and national interest, such
as modern sanitation, industrial
education, tax reform and others
of kindred nature. These will
express the new ideas Of the lead
ing men of Oregon, best qualified
to speak on such subjects.
tits customary in many places
to secure lecturers from afar for

terestinG speakers, but being un-
familiar with the problems which
confront us here in Oregon in our
daily work, the net result of their
labor is to take from the commu-
nifty a large sum of money.
Our plan is to secure from
each community through the help
of the county school superinten-
dent and the city superintendent,
a number of our own citizens who
will deliver a course of lectures
under the auspices of the public
schools on topics of vital interest
to all Of our people.
Each city superintendent,
or teacher who wishes
to plan for a course of lectures
should write to this department, |
telling us how many lectures he
can arrange for during the school
year. He should also choose a
