WESTON HAS PROSPECT
Of FARM BUREAU SCHOOL

r = \ y ~ j.
There is good prospect that j
farmers school will be held in Mem
lorial Hall next February under aus
Ipiees Of the Extension Service Of the
Oregon Agricultural College: ;yThe
granting of such valuable source
of instruction to Weston win depend
largely upon the growth of farm hu-
reau membership here and on Wes.
ton mountain. Sim j. Culley is in
receipt Of letter from Fred Ben
|nion, county agent, from which the
following excerpts are taken:
Il want to arrange with Profess
sor Hyslop and his assistant, Mr..
Carpenter, to conduct grain, pro-
duction, handling and grading school
III this county some time III Febru-
ary. This will be two-day school
and will take up practically the same
work as will be given under this head
during Farmers Week at the college.
sWhat would you think Of the sue
cess Of such a school If 1t were held
in the Weston community hall some
time in February? This year these
extension schools will be held under
the auspices Of the Farm Bureau,
and the membership in any co1nmun-
ity will be indicative Of the interest
in such school. One day of this
school or part Of one day could be
given over to potato work in which
the people on the mountain should
be interested. Professor HysIop is
secretary and inspector for the State
Board Of Seed Poatto Certifcation
! am extremely anxious to do what /
can to build up the Weston Mountain
country as a seed potato section and
believe that Professor Hyslop would
be Of material help Oh this subject.
Il suggest that you talk this mat
ter over with the other members Of
he Weston Farm Bureau committee
and see what they think about the |
advisability Of holding such a con-
ference. If you can secure 30 or 40I
Farm Bureau members in the vicin- |
ity Of Weston there is no doubt that
we could swing this proposition

. RATE CASES
HEARD TODAY
North Dakota Case Among
Others Being Reviewed
By Supreme Court.

Washington, May 5.-Arguments
were heard in the supreme court to-
DAY In proceedings involving the
right of the federal government to
with intra-state freight and
passenger rates and telegraph and
telephone tolls under the joint con-
gressional! resolutions and p~residen-
tlal proclamations authorizing federal
control Of the railroads and wire sys-
tens of the country. The cases re.
suited from recent orders of Dr.
rector General Hines and Postmaster
General Burleson increasing rates.
While the cases heard today came
from five. states-North Dakota,
South Dakota. Kansas. Illinois, and
Massachusetts,. proceedings attacking
the governments authority to super
sede state rate making commissions
had been instituted in about Is states
with the result that in some the gov
ernment's contention was upheld,
while in others decisions favorable to
the state authorities were rendered.
Owing to the importance of'the ques-
ton, court officials said final, determi-
nation of the suits might be made be-
fore the supreme court adjturns next
month.

Ninth Foint yiolased.

Basel. switzerland, May 5.-The
German.Austrian cabinet 1t Vienna
has issued q manifesto In which II
claims that President Wilson. through
his making known that he approved
the treaty Of London as far as'that
concerned the demarcaton OF the
frontier between Italy and, German
Austria. which meant the annexation
Of the southern ,Tyrol, had acquiesced
in q violation Of the ninth OF his
fourteen points. 80
The document adds that the Italian
claims to the southern Tyrol, are
fodnded IN strategic grounds. These.
1t holds, do not justify annexation
because such annexation is contrary
to the principle of self determination
enunciated by President Wilson y, his
speech at Mount Vernon JpllfS. last'
1t is pointed out that the GerMans
Austrian government hassO6ered Ito
n~eutralize the southern Eyrol mill
tarily while retaining a. illustrative
and economic control Of It, but that
it never had q. reply to- this offer.
The manifesto concludes by de-
claring that II. Italy takes the south
ern Tyrol the remainder Of the Tyrol
would inevitably be absorbed by Ger.
many with the result that German.
Austria would be cut of from. the rest
Of the world except through Germany
and, therefore, would be obliged tc
unite Herself with Germany.
