Prize Winning Essays on Good Roads

state and county know and help one an
other.
Tax Feature Analysed.
by building hard-surfaced roads the
value of adjoining lands is increased.
This will lessen Portland taxes by in
creasing the taxable property value of
the rest of the county.
This year not only tourists, but per-
manent settlers, will be attracted to this
country and we shall be judged by the
condition of our roads.
Besides, if this bond issue is passed,
80 per cent of the money will be spent
for labor, thereby relieving the unem-
ployed situation of Portland"
An essay that sure would have been
among the prize winners had it not ex-
ceeded the limit of 200 words was that
of Edna Bowling, of cal Union avenue,
a pupil at the Eliot School. She wrote on
the general subject Of Good Roads" but
in a most original vein. Her essay fol-
lows:
THE rain said to the dust on the road,
4 am on to you and your name is mud
THE farmer said to his hired man,
we cant take the produce to market
this week because of the condition of
the unpaved roads,
THE ~storekeeper said to his customer,
No fresh vegetables this morning, only
such as we are able to get from Washing
ton and California.
"'Why can't you get fresh vegetables
and the like from the thousands of fer
tile acres surrounding P~ortland?' said the
customer.
"'Oh, the roads are so muddy the
farmer can't bring them in
"'But / can't understand why the
farmers of Washington and California
can get theirs to market
why, my dear madam, they have
paved highways and up in King County,
Washington, for instance, after a rain
the farmer does not have to wait for it
to dry up so he can work in the fields.
He can take his produce to market
but | can't see why the people of
Multnomah County would not rather
spend a couple of dollars more on taxes
a year. have fresher and cheaper vege-
tables, ETC., ETC., not to speak of the many
other c%onveniences derived from good
roads she said, as she stepped out again
into the progressive City of Portland,
surrounded by beautiful roses and poor
roads, with her Washington berries, all
fornia vegetables and Chinese eggs in her
half-flled market basket"
The judges of the contest were: l.. r.
Alderman, Superintendent OF Schools;
Mayor Albee, of Portland, and W. L.
Lightner, Chairman Of the Board OF Multi
nomah County Commissioners.

White Orpingtons Are Fowls
That Live Up to Reputation

SHERIDAN, Or, April Is, 1915: Farm
Magazine Company, Portland, Or: Cen
tlemen: l see in your last weeks issue
an illustration of the White Orpingtons
of the Cook strain. | would state that
l bought a pen of Single Comb White
Orpingtons from William Cook & Son, Of
Scotch Plains, N. j., U. S. A., two years
ago, the cockerel being a son of Mr.. Cooks
first prize cockerel of Madison Square.
They have proven as represented, breed
ing uniform and being good egg produc-
ers, gentle and not excitable, easy to
handle and at the same time good ~rustlers
when raised on a farm where they have
plenty of outrange.
Now. as l had so many inquiries
last year as to what the Cook strain was,
! will copy from William Cook & Son
Catalogue, of Scotch Plains. N. ]. (and
Orpington, England), the originators of
all the Orpington fowls.
The history of the White-Orpingtons.
Copy. In 1880 Mr., Cook thought he
ought to get to work and produce a
White Orpington that he could bring out
a few years after the Black Orpington. as
all people did not like this color. After
several experiments to find out the best
way of producing white fowls, he started
by mating White Leghorn cocks with
black Hamburg pullets, most of the pull
lets from this cross came very white, these
even mated to White Barking cocks.
Many of the offspring now came blue
and barred and it took many years to get
the perfect white fowl and to get only
four toes, as the darking had five toes,
but by 1889 they were made as perfect
as possible and introduced to the public.
Hoping this may relieve any inquiring
mind, I remain at your service,

More than Is pounds of gravel.
The remains of two bedspreads.

Good Roads for Drew County

In this county we have some good roads, and there is no reas- on why we should not have more of them. In nearly every section of the county are good gravel beds, and gravel, properly ap- piled, make just about as good a road as does crushed rock or con- crete, while it is not one-fourth as expensive. Roads built of gravel never get too muddy to travel over, at any season of the year, and are not overly dusty in dry weather.
 The three mills road-tax, if put into gravel on the roads will be money well spent, and in a few years this fund, alone, would give Us fine roads.

Monticello Wins from Wilmar.

Last Friday evening, at the Monticello Baseball Park, Mon ticello won from Wilmar, in a most closely contested game at a score of 3 to }. There was some good ball-playing on both sides ; Monticello had the advantage in the pitching. Chambers, Monti- cello's twirler. set down II men, allowed only few hits. The fielding of the Wilmar boys was fine. They never let ball get by them, where it was fieldable, and their base. work was excel lent. While Wilmar is playing at the foot of the list, neverthe- jess, 1t is one of the best teams in the League, and will most like ly step up higher soon.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased DOT tion.of the ear. There Is only one way to cure deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an intlam- ed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is intlamed you have rumbling sound or imper- feet hearing, and when it is en- tirley closed, Deafness is the re suit, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forey- CT: nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condi- tion of the mucous surfaces.

There is probably a "reater scarcity of well equipped compe- nt cotton graders than in most any otter line of business in the South. The losses sustained by the cotton farmer and by the merchants who handle cotton in the course of their business tran actions, from incorrect grading is almost inestimable: but these losses in the course of time can be practically eliminated and this enormous amount saved by such schools as yours, establish ing thorough courses in grad ing and equip the young busi- ness men of the South with this knowledge.

Advice From Those Who Know.

say of the young mans opportun- ity with Cotton Grading and Olassing properly masterd. The wealth and independence in the South is in its cotton. Let every young man better prepare to get the benefit of this independence and wealth.
 Tyler, Texas, May 6, 1915. Tyler Commercial College,
 Cotton Chasing Department,
 Tyler, Texas. Gentlemen:
 1 had the pleasure of visiting your cotton chasing class and ob- served the work you were doing. Having had several years of ex- perience in the cotton business, both as buyer and seller, 1 be- Iieve 1 am somewhat judge, and in my opinion you have a very complete department. You have every faacility to inte1li- gently instruct in the work, and no youag man can find more |opportune time and more prac- tical place than in your insti- tuition.
 Expressing my opinion further, 1 believe this department is more practical and far-reaching in its effects than any other de partment of your great school, and every young man owes 1t to himself to take advantage of the Opportunity to thoroughly equip himself along this line.
 Yours very truly,
 ROBERT ALLEN.

 During the year of 1913 I stud jed the chasing of cotton at the A. & M. College of Texas, finish ing the work in the early part of 1911. 1 like the work so we'll that 1 decided after returning to my home to take a review in the Tyler Commercial College, Cot ton Department, which 1 did, and 1t gives me pleasure to say 1 find their teaching more efficient and satisfactory in every way. Their course of instruction is much more complete, and in my opinion, covers all the ground thoroughly.
 B. F. BELL, JR. Tyler Commercial College,
 Tyler, Texas.
 Gentlemen
 We wish to congratulate your school upon installing as part of the different lines of business taught by you, the subject of Cotton Grading and the keeping of correct cotton records.
 A young man entering any class of business in the South is bound to come in contact, direct ly or indirectly with the problem of handling cotton, and if he is familiar with the handling of the staple, keeping proper records and Is able to correctly grade this product it will certainly make him more efficient and make his services more valuable to his employer.
 As distinct line of business in which to engage, it is the
