DEMONSTRATION TRAIN EXPERT
LECTURES AT HIGH SCHOOL
Explain Work of Alfalfa Campaign
Shows Principle of Rotation of
Crops and the Balanced Ration

Mr.. Farr, one of the men with Prof.
Holden's special train, which passed
through here last week, gave talk to
the high school Friday afternoon. Mr.
Farr was for twenty years county
superintendent of schools in Cooke
County, Illinois.
He explained the three forces behind
this movement for greater agricultural
OVERWHELMINGLY, the Union Pacific
Railway, the Agricultural Department
of the State of Washington and the Ag-
ricultural Extension Bureau of the In
ternational Harvester Company. He
showed the relation between producing.
manufacturing and transporting. There
is nothing wrong with the manufacture
ing and transporting industries, but
we are on the border edge of the posi-
bilities in producing. No one locality
or state can permanently prosper on a
one-crop system. To permanently
maintain soil fertility, farmers must
rotate their crops.
In connection with this, Mr.. Farr
spoke of the relation between child and
parent. This relation should always be
warm and confdential-tn parent hav-
ing the child's welfare at heart, and the
child always mindful of its duty toward
the parent.
Mr.. Farr showed several interesting
specimens of sweet clover. corn and al
falfa. He compared the work of the
nodules or bacteria on the roots of
plants which take nitrogen from the
air into the ground to man who would
work for another man, board himself
and pay for the privilege. A relation
was also drawn between silage and
canned fruit. From the chart it was
demonstrated that alfalfa balances the
corn ration. 1t would be profitable for
Kennewick farmers to grow corn.
AT the close of the talk, the students
were taken through the demonstration
train.
This week the high school enrolment
was increased to ninety-four, the two
new pupils being Geneva Story and
Henry Moore, both Sophomores. Paul
Brown re-entered school.

One of the really worthy institutions of
the diocese that is filing place Of Pc
culiar usefulness is the Prisoners Aid
Society. And IL is certainly not credit
able to the churchmen of the diocese

expense OF. keeping this most useful work
going Is quite trifing, and yet it appears
that the money is not forthcoming with
out a good deal of constant effort. not
always successful by any means.
The idea of the institution has been to
give to each prisoner as he comes out of
prison friendly hand, to speak a good
word for him with a view to securing
employment, to advance him, II neces-
sary' little money. and generally to be

Difficult Church Field.

New York City is held to be the most
difficult church field in the world because
of its high land values, its excessive sala-
ries to clergy, higher than in any other
city: its downtown problem, which now
extends to all Manhattan Island and fully
half of Brooklyn. and the fact that It
contains 100000 Hebrews. For Protest
ants. II is held to be especially difficult
because l.25O,0OO Of its Christians are
Roman Catholics.
Yet soon new edifices for Protestant
worship and work are to be opened that
have cost $3,500.000. All but two or three
of these edifces are in downtown districts
Every building opens with money to pay
