Better Livestock Breeds In
Oregon In Now In Sight
Boys and Girls in Club Work are TAX
ing Great Interest i'm Pure Bred
Animals.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
wallis, July 2S.-Pure bred stock pla-
ced with boys and girls of Oregon in
club work is expected to do much to-
ward building up the pure bred stock
industry in Oregon, by the state lead
ers Of club work. The young peo-
Pile, 1t Is said are interesting the
grown-ups in paying more attention
to quality of stock.
l.. j. Allen, assistant state club
leader, announces that live stock
placed with the boys and girls in
cludes "a dairy calves valued at $14,-
1915; so beef calves, s12.2S0; 81
brood sows. $4,120; 141 weenling
pigs to be grown for meat purposes,
$1,1S0; and 81 pure bred pigs, wean-
ling age, s1,76O.
The price paid for the stock was
small enough to make it possible for
the young people to make a profit.
The club leaders have put special
stress on the fact that not only should
an animal be pure bred, but of good
strain.

BIG ELEVATOR BURNS
Fire Also Destroys Smythe Ware
house at Shutter.

Last Wednesday night the elevator
at Shutter and one Of the warehouses
owned by Smythe Bros. were COM
pletely destroyed by fire. The other
Shutter warehouse, belonging to the
Arlington Lumber Co., was not dam
aged.
The warehouse burned contained
very little grain, reports stating that
only 400 sacks we're there, it being
wheat left over from last year. No
information was received here as to
the amount of the loss or whether it
was covered by insurance.
The elevator was the property Of
G. A. Hart Of The Dalles and A. M.
Cannon of Portland. 1t was built
in 1917, and had a capacity of 13O,-
900 bushels but had not been used.
Wednesday morning Mr.. Hart was in
Condor closing a deal with Dan
Thomas to take charge Of the eleva-
tor at the time he vas notified Of the
fire.
The elevator company was incorp-
Grated for 100000 about the cost Of
the building, although it would have
cost much more to erect it at present
prices. Insurance amounting to $780,
900 was carried.
With the big grain crop on Shutter
Flat the loss of these two buildings
may work a hardship on some of the
shippers. 1t Is probable that a large
loading platform will be erected
where the elevator stood, and grain
handled on it.
Mr., Hart stated that he would re-

laid low, orchards stripped of their
fruit and leaves, and shingles beaten
of the roofs. 1t was part of a storm
which visited many sections of the
Inland Empire.
The loss was heaviest in one of the
choicest farming districts of the coun-
ty, the north part of Paradise. D. W.
Kuhn had 200 acres of wheat that
gave promise of yielding 40 bushels.
This vas laid as fiat as if a roller
had passed over it. Mr.. Kuhn had
intended going to Flora a few days
before to take out hail insurance, but
his car was not working we'll and he
postponed the trip. His orchard also

CHRISTMAS WEEK IN ENGLAND
Time When Scattered Families Are
United and Tender Memories
Are Revived.

RTANY and great are the changes
1V1 which have occurred in England
since Dickens wrote ga Christmas
Carol" but they have not affected the
national love for the festival and the
determination to preserve unimpaired
the traditional warmth and heartiness
of it's celebration. Christmas week Is
still the great week of the year for
the English people. 1t is the one week
when scattered families are reunited,
when tender memories and old asso-
Citations are revived, when friend greets
friend with CHEEKY expansiveness In
striking contrast with the character
istic reserve of the English nature,
so, undemonstrative to those who do
not know it well, apparently so dis
tant and unsympathetic.
From Wednesday all business will
be suspended, not to be resumed till
Monday morning The whole nation
will give itself up to good cheer and
good fellowship, and for brief season,
all strife and controversy are hushed.
and peace, charity and concord reign
supreme.

THINGS THE BOYS LONG FOR
Youngsters Prefer Toys or contriv-
ances to Test Their Muscular Skill
or Endurance.

VHTHAT shall be said of that blum
w dering Kindness of home folk
that considers giving the boy only
presents Of such things as he actu-
ally needs? 1t is an outrage upon
the spirit of Christmas to present him
with new shoes, ties, handkerchiefs-
something that he knows he will get
anyway-when his sleeping and wax
ing dreams for weeks before have been
filled with visions Of tops, balls, guns
and magic lanterns, says Maud Sou
ders in the Woman's Home Compan-
ion. The most beautiful knitted muf-
fer woman's fingers ever constructed
cannot compare with jack-knife with
four blades and cork-screw attach
ment, when exhibited over the back
fence to neighbor boy on Christmas
morning. Very soon after the days
Of kits a boy reaches the age when
be yearns with his whole soul after
any toy or contrivance that will test
his muscular skill or endurance. At
this age an appropriate present would
be a rawhide or rope lariat, such az
is used by the Buffalo Bill riders. A
pair of hand or arm stills will be re-
ceived with equal favor, and in the
same category comes a new fishing
rod, snow shoes, tennis racket, golf
clubs, good ball, lamp or cyclometer
for his wheel, or even live pet, a
new dog, a pair of rabbits or guinea
pigs-something that he can pet and
train for his own.

Funny Christmas Habit.

There Is not drug store, cigar shop
or barroom In the larger cities which
has not been made the storage room
for Christmas presents bought before
the rush sets in. The strange part of
1t is that every man who utiliZes the
friendship of his favorite place round
the corner thinks he Is the only one
who thought OF the plan. Realizing
that the stores will be crowded, many
far-sighted heads of families bought
their presents week In advance, and
then, fearing the nature of the mystic
rious package would be discovered at
the office or at home, they hit upon the
device of making cache in some re-
sort near home.
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1920-12-25

1t is not SO much the thought of re-
ceiving the customary holiday gifts
which most pleases the fancy, but
rather that pleasure the heart derives
from dwelling upon joyful surprises
1t may bestow upon others. To bring
smile Of gladness upon another's
face is, indeed, boon more precious
than a Christmas gift, and the Joy
of bestowing can never be eQualed by
the receiving.
