Robb, county agricultural agent, has just returned from a conference of thi* western Oregon county agricultural agents held in Portland. This confer ence was called by F. V. Maris, state lender of county agents, for the purpose of discussing the increasing of the win ter wheat acreage. The United States department of ag riculture has canvassed the situation very thoroughly and finds that the conn try must exert itself to the very limit to meet the food shortage. In order to meet the crisis there must be an in crease of Is per cent of the winter .wheat acreage of the United States as a whole. The state of Oregon is asked to increase its winter wheat acreage 50 per cent. This is greater than in any of the other northwestern states. Frof. Hyslop, of the farm crop depart ment of Oregon Agricultural college, stated that it is advisable to plant win ter rye on land where wheat will not yield well. He also stated that yields of 50 bushels an acre of winter rye had been attained on good ground at the experiment station. Prof. Iiyslop ad vises that not only a larger acreage of winter wheat be planted but that the best winter wheat lie used for seed. He recommended for Lane county the Gold i'll or Red Chuff ns being the best win ter variety of wheat. All plans are complete for the open ing of school next Monday. Miss Mar garet McDonald, of Portland, has been elected to fill the vacancy in the high school staff and to have charge of the girls’ athletics. A coach for the boys’ athletics is also being arranged for. J. F. (iodard will have charge of the manual training work. The seventh and eighth grades on the east side will occupy rooms in the frame building an*l will be conducted on the departmental plan. Students in these grades will register there Monday morn ing. The room vacated by the seventh grade will be occupied by the domestic art department, and Mrs. B*-rison will be able to accommodate all the girls wishing to take work in domestic art .ind domestic science. Children who will be six years ot age before January 1 should lie sent to school at the beginning of the school year. Flans are under way to prov ide every activity of student life.

List Seed With County Agent. The winter grain average should be increased 5« per cent in Oregon, accord ing to the national government. This request is made in order that the food shortage may be handled successfully during the coming year. This increased planting will demand a larger amount of fall seed grain than ever before. Already tniiuy inqui ries have been received by N. S. Robb, county agricultural agent, Eugene, for winter barley and oats. In order that these requests for seed may be located, all parties having good fall seed grain of wheat, oats and liar- ley for sale should list their seed with N. 8. Robb, county agricultural agent, Eugene, Oregon. These lists will in time be incorporat ed into a state list and growers in Lane county will then be placed in touch vvith buyers outside the county. There vvill be a large demand for fall seed' grain south of here and if parties will list their seed for sale, together with the price, promptly, it vvill enable the Lane county list to be one of the first on the ground. Patronize those who advertise in The Sentinel, May Send Chickens to Soldiers. The proposition of making regular shipments of chickens tv» our soldier ! boys at Fort Stevens w ill come up nt 1tho grange meeting Saturday. The pro. ! posal will be for each granger to bring a chicken to each grnnge meeting and for the commercial club to pay the ex press charges. The matter has not yet I been brought before the club. Telephone Wires Now Out of Danger. When C. II. Corson, Hiram Griggs nnd L. L. Harrel returned last week from fighting fire in the Shoestring country, they slept at home for the first time in three weeks, and are mightily pleased that the wires of the Pnrifie Telephone A Telegraph company, which they were guarding, are now out of dan- gor from fires. Careful watch had to be kept night nnd day for several weeks to keep the service intact. The wires are the through ones between Portland ami San Francisco.
