The saving of this Large item of in
terest is one commendable feature, an
other is the fact there was made avail
able for farm loans and the purchase
of bonds the sum of $275,00, and this
money, which loans at $50, will prove
potent factor in the most practical
manner of reducing interest rates-by
providing money to relieve a demand
which allows for charging of higher
rates of interest.
The States Bonded Debt is now re-
duced to $662,SOO, Of which bonds
to $426,7O0, are held as in
vestment for the School Funds. Only

ing is a most remarkable one, and it is
doubtful whether there is another state
in the Union with so small a bonded
Indebtedness. 49,.
That there has been difference OF
opinion among the political admin

in a very practical way by the fac'
that the $4,000 Of Capitol Building
Bonds were not retired sooner, there

it was $S5,300; in 1912 it was $92,1S7

HEAVY SHOWS TO
BRING BIG CROPS
Soil In Fine Shape as Result
Of White Blankets. .

Washington.-FOr number Of years
the country at large has not enjoyed
such general SHOWS as whitened the
countryside during February and
March Of the present year. Also It
has been the occasional catastrophe
that one great heavy snow has fallen
late in the season to be followed by a
quick thaw and consequent floods.
Now the soil sharps. seeing chat eondf'
tons are more nearly ideal this sea-
sob than for a number Of springs, are
encouraged to believe that 1914 is des-
tined to be year Of bumper crops.
DR.. ]. A. Bonesteel Of the bureau
Of soils is quoted:
"Since the snow blanket took its
time in departing we will have bet
ter crop start this year than for sew.
eral years. TO date conditions could
be hardly more ideal. We had snow
after snow-not too heavy. but per.
sistent enough to keep the ground GOV.
cred we'll and the tender shoots Of the
wheat in perfect condition.
'"rhis is particularly true Of the east
ern states generally, but at the same
time conditions are far better in the
middle west than is the general aver.
age.
I'm the corn belt. where there was
4 considerable depletion of the crop
through too persistent drought last
season. the snow will prove Of meal.
culable benefit. The corn belt ought
to have splendid start.
"Where snow remained a long time
and there has been extensive oppor.
tunity for it to seep down into the
earth. carrying its moisture from one
to two feet. the soil is prepared to de-
velop sturdy roots for the cereal crops.
The plants therefore stand a better
chance against possible deficiencies in
the matter Of rainfall during the period
Of tbeir growth"

is--just her mother.
She always studied. and she put her
heart and soul into her work. When
she went to Salem as q, stenographer in
the Office of the governor she enrolled
as student in the Willamette College
of Law and was graduated In the class
Of 1918. Several months ago, upon the
resignation of Ralph Watson, who was
promoted from his position as private
secretary to the governor to that Of
corporation commissioner. Miss Hobbs
was appointed to succeed him. She IS
the only woman in the world who
holds such position.
At Copper1eld Miss Hobbs stood out
on the rickety little platform surround

II truly did feel rather timid when
l read in a morning paper that was
to be sent to Copperfeld, but it's part
of my job, so trotted right along"
Outside of that Miss Hobbs refused
to say any more about her trip-that
is, about the frightening part Of it.

tons: "Why should be afraid? l
