POLK COUNTY JERSEY
BREEDERS TO MEET

A meeting of Polk County Jersey
Breeders has been called for April
18th at Independence. The purpose
of the meeting is to foster the in
terests of the Jersey breed in this
county, which is already famous for
its production of Jersey cattle, and
put into operation plans that will
lead to higher and more general de-
velopment of the breed. Oergon has
from ten to twenty-five per cent. Of
the high record cows of the United
States, and Polk County leads Oregon
in their production. This wonderful
record has been achieved largely by
individual effort aided by the unequal
ed climatic conditions Of the state.
In view of the remarkable results that
have been achieved by so few persons
in so short a time with so few cows,
breeders of Jerseys in Polk County
are justified in believing that by more
extensive cooperative breeding they
can make it the premier Jersey center
of the United States.
There is something more than twen-
ty Jersey breeders in Polk County
and as far as possible each one has
been notified of the time, place and
of the meeting. If by chance
any of the breeders Of this county
have been overlooked it is hoped that
they will accept this notice as an in
to be present and help or
ganize the breeders association.
Professor R. R. Graves, head of the
College Dairy Depart
ment, will be present and address the
breeders on the value and methods
Of association work. He will also aid
in the organization and submit copies
Of the usual organization literature.

NORMAL NOTES

Last Friday afternoon was the big
event of the year, the Junior Glass
circus, big parade began, everything
imaginable from Indians to giraffes
were shown in this parade. The next
part of the program gave the faculty
chance "To see themselves as others
see them" Nothing can be compar-
ed to the excellent musical quality of
the minstrels. The cow girls, cow
boys and Indians recalled many thrill
ing experiences to the minds of the
audience. The acrobats were one of
the best numbers of the circus. They
showed unusual skill in their perfor-
nance. The missing links and clowns
kept the audience laughing with their
ridiculous antics. The side shows
contained some of the wonders of the
world. A large crowd was at the cir
Gus among which were many of the
Normal girls, dressed as children, evil
IDENTIFY thinking that in this disguise
they would be better able to enjoy
the circus Much credit should be
given to the Juniors in preparing this
circus and we hope the other class
programs will be as good as theirs.
Miss Hoham attended the Grand
Opera in Portland.
We are all very glad to see Mr..
Pittman back and hope he stays for
awhile this time.
The Young Women's Christian As
sociation has been holding conven-
ton at the Normal.
Friday evening the delegates from
the different schools were given a
reception in the Normal chapel.
An Easter vacation will be given
the students from today noon until
Tuesday morning
The Normal student body are con
sidenng having student body
council.
