STRONG SUPPORT FOR
PENDLETON

NAN ITHOUT the know.
~ ledge Of the local
committee handling
the campaign for an eastern
Oregon normal school valuable
support has been given the
cause by the regents of the
Monmouth Normal. As shown
by a story today the board has
made a public appeal for an
other normal on the ground
that the Monmouth normal is
unable to care for the needs
Of the state.
With voters who wish to
know the facts involved the ac:
ton by the board of regents
will be highly convincing. The
board is composed chiefly of
western Oregon men. None
of them have any concern in
Pendleton, but they know what
the schools are up against in
this state. They know the sit
uation is wrong and that it
must be remedied or a heavy
price will be paid.
The official action taken by
the normal regents together
with the fact each member of
the board is supporting the
Pendleton measure as is also
President Alderman, makes a
powerful showing for the mer-
its of the bill.

THE GAME


When the dice
Thrown by Fate
Beat you thrice
Clean and straight,
Take your knocks,
Stand the pain.
Get the box
Throw again.
Though LIES cards
Mock your play
And your pards
Stroll away,
Luck can't wreck
Stubborn men,
Grab the deck
Deal again,
Does the fight
Seem too grim
For your might
And your vim?
Though you grope
SOrely hit,
There is hope
Till you quit!
Only clods
Leave the fray
When the gods
Look away
Sing your song,
Fight along
And you viii win!

TIMES AND SEASONS
i, TO GROW VEGETABLES

May and June are the best planting
months for vegetables and minor crops
Just as for cane, The i'll success of
earlier paintings isprobably due to the
abrupt changes in temperature to
which the Hawaiian climate is subject
from January to the end of April,
These changes do. not, of course com
pare with the extreme ranges Of tenn
perature of the temperate zone, but
their effect on plant growth is the
same. Insect pests are also more in
evidence during early spring, at least
this seems to be trIe AZ regards "pok-
os, or cutworms, Japanese beetles,
and the common garden worms and
bugs. H. ',.-'.g" - .
I 3 All garden truck has to be irrigated,
and some things require protection from
the direct rays Of the hot sun. There
Is no good reason why more people
should not grow their own vegetables.
There is nothing difficult about it. An
abundant mass of published data is
available telling what, when and how
to plast. What does require is at

undertaking If it Is to be success.

A new method Of preserving railway
ties and other timbers is described in
the Canada conservation commission q
report for 1915. The timber Is placed
in kiln and treated with dry steam
At high temperature. The steam Is then
allowed to escape from the chamber,
but the temperature kept hot. When
the moisture is down to FIVE per cent
the ties are removed, painted, OF
tipped, in hot asphalt oil, allowed to
cool, and sanded. The sand takes up

lies, II is claimed that this method Is
better and cheaper than ereosoting. &
