these squashes there was quantity
OF snap beans that a week ago
would have been just right for the
table, but now they are tough and
uneatable, some wormy and others
dirty from the mud thrown upon
them during the heavy rain OF last
week. The housewife who purchases
this manner OF truck after having
seen 1t has only herself to blame, but
sometimes 1t may be sent on a tele-
phoned order. and through its use
a dinner spoiled.
The Rogue valley can and does
grow the best garden vegetables in
the world, and It is no fault of the
country II squashes and beans and
cabbages are spoiled by wrong cul-
tural methods OF later In the mar
keting. Neither is It the fault OF
the housewife II she refuses to jeop-
ardize matrimonial happiness by the
purchase OF unpalatable vegetables,
or OF the merchant II he buys the
truck where he can get goods that
suit his trade.
The remedy to the condition lies
in education, and education can
come largely through the grower
himself, though the public market
would be the best school for the
purpose. Here the grower who
brought In his produce in the most
attractive form would meet with the
most ready and profitable sale, and
gradually the other fellow would
learn that to dispose OF his wares
he must compete with his neighbor
in the quality Of his produce.
The present system Of trade where
by the merchant accepts the produce
on account, and oftentimes is obliged
to take inferior produce in settle
ment of an account does not tend to
the best results. The merchant him
self would find the situation i'm
proved, and his profits made larger,
II the grower sold his produce for
cash through the medium OF the pub
lie market and then in turn paid the
cash to the merchant for his goods.

JUDGE CALKINs REvERsEs THE
KNOCKERS.

One by one the obstacles that have
been raised in the progress OF AFFAIRS
having to do with the building OF the
new railroad are being disposed Of.
Judge Calkins has cleared the way
somewhat by holding that the issue
of 100000 bonds was legal, and that
the city had full authority under the
state constitution to vote the issue
for the purpose OF building a rail-
road to the Applegate river. The
critics have been trying to make
themselves believe that the munici-
pality had no right TO vote bonds for
development outside the corporation,
and as Judge Calkins, a learned and
a careful jurist, holds that the city
has the right, there is little fear
from the decision OF the higher court
that will now be asked to give its
verdict upon the question.
Some Of these critics, prompted no
doubt by the wish that was within
them, have been bowling about I'll
legal bonds" when there had never
been legal opinion that questioned
the legality OF the issue. New phases
of law we're presented in the action
of the people in voting to tax them
selves to construct a railroad to de-
velop the resources that have been
awaiting development, and to take
the initiative In severing their bond
age to the Southern Pacific railroad.
The critics who we're afraid to get
out OF the rut in which they had been
travelling for the last half century
thought these new phases spelled IL
legality, Judge Calkins now re-
verses them ~

A ROGUE RIVER WAGON ROAD

A ROGUE RIVER WAGON ROAD.
The officials of the forestry de-
partment, and also an engineer from
the good roads bureau, are now in

structing a wagon road down the
Rogue to the coast at Gold Beach. At
present the lower river has no direct
connection with the interior by wag-

is up the Rogue TO Grants Pass.

THE ALMEDA NINE.

1t is unfortunate that so good
mine as the Almeda should become
involved in financial difficulties, but
1t is a case where the property will
ultimately prove itself. An immense
body of ore is in sight in this great
mine, and every qualified mining
man who has examined it backs up
the claims that have been made by
its most enthusiastic supporters. The
present action Of the authorities
may result in the appointment Of a
receiver for the Almeda, but II this
is the quickest available method Of
settling the difficulties and in again
putting the property upon a produc-
ing basis, then there should be no
opposition to the action.

work at present, and the ore being
put through the smelter is produc-
ing the best quality OF matte. Ul-
timately the Almeda will prove that

DEER SEASON OPENS FRIDAY.

The deer hunting season will open
next Friday. August 1st, and a score
OF the local nimrods are getting
ready to make the first attack on the
denisens OF the hills.
There have been some material
changes in the law since the last
hunting season, the limit benig re-
duced to three. it having formerly
been five. Only deer with horns can
be killed, and 1t is illegal to destroy
the evidences OF sex about the car
eass. Does and fawns are protected
st all times OF the year. %. '.--.-
; With the opening Of the hunting
season there commences the serial
story OF men being mistaken for deer
and shot by their fellow hunters.
State Game Warden William l..
Finley has notified all the gun and
rod clubs OF the state to warn It's
members and all other deer hunters
to be extremely careful not to shoot
a human being. Finley said:
There have been many instances
Of hunters being mistaken for deer.
We have not had as many in Oregon
as In some OF the other states, yet
we have a few cases. We strongly
advise that deer hunters wear
bright red shirt In the field and even
a red hat The man who goes into
the mountains clad in brown is much
more likely to be taken for deer
as he is going through the brush
than the man who wears red
I'VE desire to caution and warn
all hunters to observe these rules on
dress and to be guarded in what they
shoot. Every year we have com
plants that domestic animals are
killed by careless hunters-some
times horse and sometimes a COW
or calf.
The law passed at the last session
OF the legislature provides that each
hunters license must be accompanied
by three deer tags. AS soon as a
deer is killed, one OF these tags must
be detached from the license, signed
and dated and tied to the carcass. 1t
Is unlawful to have carcass in pos
session without tag on t. 49,
The licenses that we're issued
from January to June, before the
new law went into effect, did not
have the deer tags attached. How
ever, tags have been supplied to all
county clerks and any hunter may
secure these tags by applying to any
county clerk"

Washburn might very likely have
won and was hindered from making
the best show possible on account of
a matter SO petty as compared to the
whole good of the college makes ev-
cry loyal student sorry.
1T is supposed that this demonstra-
ton of fraternity politics was caused
by the fact that the election of the
captain of next years team will take
place within a week. During the year
the team has worked all together as
a unit and has done marveIously fine
work; and it is much to be regretted
that this unified feeling should be de-
stroyed in the game which would de-
eide the championship of the state.

such a marked effect on the result OF
this intercollegiate game.

COLLEGE IS AROUSED.
Washburn Review Criticises Frat for
Football Politics.

The Washburn Review, the college
weekly publication, created a sensation
on the campus today by publishing an
editorial taking one of the college fra
ternities to task for alleged discrimina-
ton in the last football game between;
the IchabOdS and the Kansas Aggiss.
1t has been limited around for some
time that the game could have been
won If fraternity politics had not been
brought into play. The editor of the
Review takes up the report and pleads
with the Blue players to lay aside irat
squabbles in the future and elect a
captain for the 1914 squad who will
merit the honor of leading the team to
another all-state championship
The editorial reads in part:
There is a persistent rumor on the
campus that fraternity matters Rad
some influence on the outcome of last
thursdays game. 1t is said that one
Of the best players on the team was not
given the opportunity he should have
had to carry the ball because of the de-
sire to favor another player and give
him a chance to star.
The purpose of this action was ap-
parently to win the favor of the FRA
ternity in which the last mentioned
player is a member.
TT is certainly unfortunate IL a
CLIQUE spirit like that entered in and
interfered with the larger good of the
college. The thousands of rooters on
the field that day did not come to scc
one fraternity work to gain an adven-
tage over another fraternity. They
came to see the Washburn college tear
play against the Kansas Agricultural
college team. They expected to see
each team fighting its best to gain TO,
its school the Kansas conference foot
ball championship.
what they did see was certainly q
fine demonstration of football. Il
was a great battle from start to fin
ish and both teams deserve a great

pamphlets in recent years that soon
all the available shelf room will have
been occupied. Already, Mr.. Putnam
declares, added room has become a
serious problem and that within five
or six years provision must be made.
During the year 1900 volumes
were received in gifts, among which
there were many books of great value
pertaining to the earlier history of
the country and the diplomacy of the
confederacy.
Much attention in purchasing books
was paid to the literature of arts and
architecture.
The report shows that the annual
appropriations for the library amount
to 100000 but that there is an Off
set of about 100000 in fees covered
into the treasury. The remaining
$4,000 is used for the purchase of
books, manuscripts and original doc
uments and for the general expenses
of the library.

PACKERS CUT PRICES.
But the Consumer Continues to Pay
Same Old Figure.

Kansas City, Dec. 4.-If the consumer
has not noticed that his beef bill is lower
now than a year ago, it is not the fault
of the wholesale price of that commodity,
according to leading packers of Kansas
City. They point out the wholesale prices
of beef are lower now than in any prev
ious time in the last two years and in
some cases much as 80 per cent lower
than year ago.
Beef ribs and loins are down to 61k
cents pound, the principal decline fall
ing on No. grades. No. rounds and No.
2 chucks are the only ones in the beef
list that bring more than a year ago and
these items are Y to N cents higher.
The general beef market, dressed beef
men say, has been unusually dull for this
season OF the year. Many livestock men
attribute the dullness in the market to
the general belief that retail prices of
beef are prohibitive.
The following quotations show the
wholesale price of beef, as quoted by a
packing house here December l. 1913, and
the corresnnndinG daY in 1912.
