THE NEW O. A. c. REGENTS.

Over in Corvallis the governors hOme all is not har-
mony and brothery love- because of changes made re-
Gently in the board of regents Of the Oregon Agricultural
College 1t seems that when F. Irvine and e. E. Wilson,
two oldtme MEMBERS replaced by two personal and
political friends Of the governor there much bitter
criticism of the action and attention has been called to the
fact that contrary to the letter and spirit of the law
inasmuch as it did not maintain the political equilibrium
Of the board Section 1852 of the Oregon code relating
TO the O. A. C. board of regents says
rhe said board Of regents shall consist of thirteen
MEMBERS of whom the members of the state board Of ed
cation and also the master of the state grange for the
time being shall be offcio members The other nine
Coy members Of the board shall be appointed by the COVER
nor by and with the advice and consent of the senate not
more than five of which nine 9 members appointed by
the governor shall belong to the same political party
The board of regents now consists of j. H. Weather
ford D), +. f. Wilson (DD, W. NJ Pierce (D), B. f.
(R) c. L. Hawley (R), Clara H. Waldo (R), George M.
pubicans.
The governor evidently not knowing the law, or else
not respecting it, has proper to nominate new
members of the board of regents NJ S. WOodcock Of Cor
yals banker Republican and N R. Moore editor of the
Gazette-Tmes, Corvallis Republican, displacing two
Democrats, Wilson and Irvine and making seven repub
cans and two democrats on the board
The action of the states executive is causing much
discussion in o. A. c. circles and especially in Benton
county, that it seems probable that protest against the
confirmation of the new members will be filed with the
senate and it is difficult to just how that body can
bring itself to raty plain infracon of the statutes. 1t
looks like the beginning of pretty muddle.

THE SEED BUSINESS.

Ihls paper has been requested to an
louhce that a meeting of the Okanogar
FARMERS Seed Growing association
VIII be held in the town hall at 10 q
d. m'' next Tuesday, December IA. All
farmers Of the surrounding countr,
interested in the movement to engap,
In seed growing are requested to be
present
Inc organization of this seed grow.
ing association is an outgrowth of the
visit to Oroville of W. II. Heideman. q
lew weeks ago, who came here te
preach seed growing, and opened the
eyes Oh the farmers to the possibili-
Ties OF that industry. His lectures and
personal interviews laid the ground
work for the organization that is now
taxing up seed growing in earnest To
quote fgures of the incomes possible
Ill the seed growing business would be
IKE mentioning incomes from paying
gold mines And there is no exaepera-
ton in the figures given. An income 10
De derived from that source is not bas-
Ell upon chance. 1t is a MATHEMATICAL
certainty. Success depends only upon
the man himself engaged in the bust
ness. There is 10 question as to the
advantages of both soil and climatic
conditions for the production of the
very best seed and the market is SIM
ply unlimited. The starting of seed
growing in this valley upon COM
mercial basis is going to prove the
most profitable investment the farmer
has ever taken a hand in, and it is
safe to say that if earnest effort is
enlisted III the movement, much of the
land under the ditch in this valley will
in he course of time be wholly devot-
ed to seed growing. This paper has
quoted Mr.. Heidcman as claiming that
this section of the northwest is better
adapted to the raising of verile, hardy
and perfect seed than any other section
of the entire country. His declaration
was not based upon guess, but has
been demonstrated by practical ex-
perience and investigations This Is the
kind of seed that will always be in
demand, and there is no danger OF
overstocking the market.
Considering the importance of the
movement every land owner in this
locality should be present at the meet
ing Tuesday and joiu in the effort to
thoroughly organize the seed growing
business.
