the young people took the parts of old

ems. The old maids met in convention,
with Mrs Catherine Fisher as presi-
dent The business of the convention
consisted mostly of planning how TO
catch bachelors and widowers. and
committees were appointed for the pur-
pose. The young maidens added to the
life Of the performance with speaking
and singing.
Victor Heath, as Prof. Pinkerton,
with his electric transformer, was hired
by the old maids. and he changed them

DOES 1T GIVE RESULTS.

L. BRAY, OF Albany, recently wrote
Prof. James Dryden, of the Ore
gon Agricultural College: please
send facts about the seven acre and
the three-acre successes This was
done in order to get the details of the
two cases mentioned by the professor
at least this is the inference. In the
reply the professor says
at is possible to make a living or
money on a small tract of that size un-
der favorable conditions. do not rec
ommend the places as small as three
or even five acres for poultry keeping,
IL the purpose is to make n living for
a family by selling the product at so
much a dozen eggs, and 50 much a
pound for the chickens but If the poul-
tryman can work up that special line
in breeding stock, that is, II he can get
more than market prices for the pro-
duct, he can make a living on a few
acres with fowls alone. Where you
sell the eggs by the dozen you can
hardly keep enough chickens on three
acres, or even five, to make a perma-
nent success Of It,"
It is not our intention to detract in
any way from the good work done by
the o. A. G, or to belittle It, but 1t
strikes us that the above answer of the
professor points out the weakest spot
in the o. A. c. system, or rather in the
whole farm educational system The
school produces experts, 1t teaches hus
bandry in all branches, but does not
make farmers? Do its graduates, or
any considerable portion Of them, ev-
er take up real farm work? The breed
ing and sale of fancy poultry Is no
doubt a profitable business, but that
is a small item, in the poultry busl-
ness compared to the commercial eX-
plotting Of the hen The few may
raise fancy poultry and sell eggs at
fancy prices, but the real poultry busl-
ness is something different. 1t is the
production of eggs and chickens for
market, and 1t Is right here and on this
the real poultry business, that the
professor gives no information what
ever The idea is, that the school is
now producing experts along all lines,
but It is not producing farmers True,
the experts may be engaged in teach
ing others, some times, and thus really
broaden the scope Of the college influ-
encc, but, Wells the state getting re-
suits? This is not written In a spirit
of 'carplng criticism" for The journal
has the kindliest feelings and best
wishes for the big institution, but II
does believe, the college is shooting
wide Of the mark.

SALEM MUST HAVE
MORE FACTORIES
Secretary Slade, of the Board Of Trade,
Makes Seme Suggestions Along
This Line.

Secretary Slade, Of the Board of
Trade, has presented to that body
three suggestions for the development
Of the Willamette valley. The plans
embodied in the suggestions are eX-
tensive, and, if adopted, will mean a
progressive campaign for doubling
the population of the valley and in
creasing the agricultural and horticul-
tural output.
Mr.. SHADES three suggestions are as
follows:
"Flrst-We must begin very soon
to think Of the Panama exhibition at
San Francisco in order to induce
strangers, through the Oregon show,
to visit Salem and vicinity.
"Second-Would 1t be feasible to
form a syndicate to foster immigra-
tion from some particular country,
and then work 1t for all It is worth?
"Third-Is 1t not wise TO devise
some scheme to increase the demand
for labor in the city of Salem, so we
can give employment to those who
cannot at once go on a farm when
they come here from the east or else
where?"
Aside from the agricultural and the
horticultural idea, Secretary Slade
places much faith in the third section
believing that the Willamette valley Of
fers wonderful opportunity for pow
er projects and transportation facili-
ties. He believes further that the
greater part Of the raw material in
the valley can be created at home into
the finished product. He is highly in
favor of Offering inducements for the
immigration of manufacturing people,
as well as farmers and orchardsts.
He believes emphasis should be
placed on manufacturing because Of
the need to provide labor in this sec
tion Of the west He pictures Salem as
a future producing and distributing
center.
