Injustice vas being done pupils Who
had talent for instrumental or vocal
music, and we're not permitted 70 de-
velop II because Of the rigid high
school course which recognized no
value in any subject taught outside
the prescribed studies Of the course.
Many a voice that might have been
a 10y to the possessor and his friends
by entertaining, or BY assisting in
worship. has been hushed by the in
ability Of the pupil 10 find time to
practice. The same may be said Of
those who might have become prof.
eient on some stringed instrument,
but we're denied the pleasure be-
cause Of the rigid curriculum Of the
high school. So We are suggesting
that pupils. who so desire, be given
credit for music done outside Of
school. which will permit them 10
carry one less study in school and
have time for practice in their music.
The teachers training course has
been strengthened by requiring that
actual teaching practice must be Civ
en- for at least 40 minutes each day
for a period Of not less than 10
weeks. The assignments Of pupils in
the course 10 different grades for
teaching practice must always be
definite. 1t is felt that the require
ment which makes It necessary for
teachers to get practice under skilled
teachers will raise the standard OF
the teachers training course in the
high schools"

CARRYING THE COLLEGE TO THE
PEOPLE.

Education these days is coming to
mean more than a mere polish, a
smattering Of Greek and OF Latin,
and a brief hitting Of the high places
Of learning. There was day when
education was supposed to stop
when the sheepskin tied with its
dainty blue ribbon was handed over
by Prexy, and in a general way edu
cation did so stop But the agricul-
tural colleges with their allied
branches have changed all this, and
through their influence education is
cow being constantly carried to the
people, and the people are getting
more than a silk-tied sheepskin in
return. This new education is mean
ing much to the happiness and the
prosperity OF common people.
A thousand people took advantage
OF the opportunity to see and to hear
on the occasion of the visit of the
o. A. C. travelling welfare school at
Grants Pass last week Many of this
number had here their first oppor-
tunity to know many of the truths
concerning the composition Of their
food and their drink, to detect adul-
teration and to give proper values
to different articles OF everyday use
They learned many things that will
change the course Of some of the
household work especially, and that
will make It harder for impositlons

purchasing public. How to deter

BETTER FARMING METHODS
ABROAD.


Although American farmers have
better agricultural possibilities than
those Of any European nation. Jet
our crops are poorer than those OF
most European countries. This, at
least. is the conclusion arrived at by
DR.. Hector Macpherson, professor OF
political economy. Oregon Agricul-
.tural College. who has just returned
from a tour OF thirteen European
states. DR.. Macpherson is a member
Of the American commission, COM
posed of delegates from each OF
thirty-nye states and four Canadian
Provinces, appointed to investigate
rural conditions in Europe. He gave
out the following unofficial state
ment Of his own personal observa-
tions and conclusions:
80 far as l have noticed there is
not one European country that Of
fers anything like the possibilities
for agricultural production and
happy rural homes that are to be
found in America. Notwithstanding
this. our crops are poorer, our meth
DDS Of marketing more extravagant
and our credit facilities more ex-
pensive. than those Of any European
country. Likewise We are behind
most Of the European states in meth
DDS Of rural education. On the 9TH
er hand, feel certain that there ex-
lists nowhere in the old world high
er average native ability than is to
be found upon American farms. The
average American farm home affords
higher degree of comfort and lux
Iury than is to be found in the aver
age farm homes Of Europe.
The farmers OF Europe we're com
PEELED to adopt scientific methods Of
farming and cooperative systems Of
marketing Likewise, they were
forced to resort to cooperative insti
tutlons for a supply of credit. Small
farmers had been reduced to the
verge OF starvation before co-opera
tive methods we're accepted. Once
put into practice, however these
methods rescued the European farm
er from abject poverty and placed
him in a condition OF prosperity"

MR.. LAWRIE ON so. OREGON
MINES.

mlNEO.
H. n. Lawrie, chairman Of the
state bureau Of mines, who was a
recent visitor in Grants Pass, spoke
enthusiastically OF the outlook for
mining development in this district,
and predicted that not the least Of
the values that would be taken from
the earth here would come from the
deposits of limestone and shale. In
speaking of conditions here after his
return to Portland, Mr.. Lawrie
spoke especially OF the deposit Of ce-
Matchmaking materials.
THE deposit on Cheney Creek, II
miles from Grants Pass, on the sur
vey OF the proposed railway from
there to Crescent City. has unlimit-
ed volume for the production of ce-
ment' declared Mr.. Lawrie. The
surface outcrop shows it to be of
high-grade lime content. Farmers
and orchardists nearby are appealing
to the owners OF this property to
supply them with pulverized lime
from it. At present the property is
idle,
"On Williams creek there is an
other quarry OF lime rock awaiting
development. When it is worked it
should produce some OF the most
beautiful Of decorative marble.
The Sterling placer mine out from
Medford, which had been worked out
under the old ditch line, is now in
the hands Of heavy capital. 1t is be-
ing equipped with centrifugal pumps

SUBSCRIPTION RATES
THE COUNTY FAIR.

The directors Of the Josephine
County Fair association are now pre-
pairing the premium list for the ex-
position 70 be held late in Septem-
Der, and the list will be out for pub
lie distribution within the next few
weeks. Mr.. K. S. Dahlberg, who has
served so efficiently as the associa-
tion secretary in the past, has re-
considered his determination 10 re-
sign from the board, and will serve
again this season. The dates OF the
fair have not been definitely decided
upon, but will be the week Of Sep
tember 25th, probably the 25th.
26th, and 27th. The state fair will
be held the week following. and the
Josephine fair will be gotten out OF
the way in time to send an exhibit
from here 10 Salem.
The premium list shows that the
list Of classes and the prizes offered
will be the best ever before put up
at a fair in southern Oregon, and
with the material that will be avail
able in the county for exhibition. the
fair will without doubt be a winner.
Exhibits in the line Of live stock will
especially be much larger than on
previous years. there having been
great increase in the dairy herds in
this district within the past few
months Numerous carload ship
ments OF we'll bred dairy cattle have
been received in the valley during
the summer, and as these represent
a variety Of breeds and Of strains Of
the same breed. there promises TO
be much rivalry for honors in this
line. The dairy COW test will again
be provided this year, the entries TO
be milke1 on the fair grounds under
like conditions and the COW that
gives ihe greatest amount of butter
fat In a specified time to DO awarded
the honors. Already a number OF
the dairymen are grooming entries
for this contest.
This has been remarkably good
growing season. and the showing OF
fruits, vegetables and grain and
forage crops will be much In excess
Of last year AS 1t is desired that
as full an exhibit be made at the
state fair as is possible, every grow
or should save his best samples 10
put in the county fair.
Committees have been working tc
find some solution OF the permanent
fair ground proposition, but as moth
ing has yet been concluded In this
line, II is expected that the fair thii
year will again be held in much the
same location as last year
