and It is my experience that fully half of
the teachers do not have recreation
enough, that is of the kind that othor
young women have. They need something
to offset the seriousness of their work, and
they ought to have it."
Miss Mary Slmonds. Cass school: I
should say that any school board entirely
overstepped Its authority in attempting to
curtail a teacher's personal liberty. If a
teacher indulges tn dissipation that unfits
her for her work, let her directors tell her
of it, and If that is not sufficient, let them
dismiss her, but it Is an Injustice to the
conscientious teacher, whose health may
admit of late hours, to attempt to restrict
all because restriction may be necessary to
a few. For my part, I have never known
a teacher who needed such restraint, and
I have taught In country districts, too. I
believe there Is greater need of taking
steps to prevent schdol children from stay
ing up too late at night. I find In my
school, even in the primary and kindergar
ten, children who go to sleep during school
hours merely because they are kept up so
late, and often at dances, too."
Teachers Need Recreation.
"The following came from the principal of
one of the largest schools in the city:
"Naturally, no teacher or any other person
could be tkpected to look favorably upon
any plan that Interfered with her personal
rights; but aside from that, I consider it
an injustice to teachers generally that any
set of school authorities should allow their
own evident Inability to maintain discipline
to reflect upon their teachers as a whole,
for in my experience it is only the excep
tional teacher who allows pleasure to in
terfere with her school work. So far from
having to restrict my teachers, I find it
necessary to keep encouraging them to seek
more recreation of a light nature, and there
are few entertainments of a publlo or pri
vate character that are not over long be
fore midnight, or from which a teacher
can reach her home before midnight or
after. What would they have these teach
ers, leave before things are over, or avoid
theaters and like affairs entirely?"
Mrs. Agnes McDonald Harrison of Far
nam school: "It has been my experience
that if there is any need of legislation
against late hours it had better be to keep
the school children ,ln and send them to
bed at a reasonable hour rather than to
restrict the teacher. Even though a teacher
did keep late hours that worked an In
justice to her pupils, something, by the
way, that I have never encountered In all
of my experience, It would be simple enough
for her principal or a member of the school
board to caution her and give her some
good advice and this, to a woman who is
competent to teach school, would be
enough. No, I do not consider that such
restriction comes within the province of
school authorities."

Another said: "The school children's cur
few at 9 and a school teacher's curfew at
12. Can't you just see us all scampering
home Cinderella-like, lest we be caught
out after the stroke of midnight and di
vested of positions? Such an interference
with personal rights would be a disgrace
to any school board."
Said another: "There is another matter
that really comes within the province of
school authorities that needs adjusting be-

No matter what your trade or occupation
may be, you can make It profitable by
living in Oregon. This state has the repu
tation of producing the best prunes, ap
ples, strawberries, wheat and hops. Hood
river is noted the world over for its large
apples and strawberries. Oregon Is going
to be one of the leading agricultural states
of the union in a short time. There are
now over 35,800 farms, and the value of
farm products is 138,090,960. The average
farm Is about 280 acres. Wheat, oats, bar
ley hay, hops, potatoes, beets and straw
berries form the .most valuable., farm
products which find ready markets here
and in the east, although almost anything
can be raised. Oregon farmers distributed
last year nearly $5,000,000 for farm labor.
The fruit growing Industry. Is increasing
rapidly and is most extensively 'carried on
In the region lying between the Cascade
and coast ranges, where the climate Is ex
ceedingly favorable for such work. Apples)
grapes, cherries, peaches, peais, prunes!
etc., are the leading fruits raised, besides
8,470 acres devoted to producing small
fruits. Oregon fruit growers are up to
date In their methods of cultivating their
orchards and the packing of fruits. The
horticulture laws are strictly enforced.
Dairying is another .profitable indUHtry.
The WiKlamette valley and coast range
is especially adapted to that work and
general farming. The dairy cows of Ore
gon are Improving in quality each year,
and in five or six years will be one that
will break the records.
The water power, the timber, the number
of sheep raised in eastern Oregon, and the
mineral producta all tend to make it a
manufacturing state. In 1900 the manu
factures of the northwestern states was
valued at 1176,000,000, and It Is ateadily grow
ing. The mineral products of this group of
states were valued at I70.000.ouo. Almost all
minerals can be found here, from the beet
of gold to base lead.
Oregon ranks first in the production of
hops; In 1W3 the crop so'd for nearly 13.000,
000. Marion county 1 the largest hop pro
ducing county in the United States. Its
yield a couple of years ago waa 11.? per
cent of all that was raised.
The fishery products of Oregon In 1903
waa valued at 13,100,000, salmon being the
principal item. Shad, sturgeon, smelt, ball
but, black cod, rock cod. black bass and
numbers of other food fishes are found in
the Columbia river and its tributaries. The
Columbia river salmon is noted in all the
markets of the world. Deep sea Ashing
has long been profitable. Much pleasure Is
derived by Ashing and hunting; there la
plenty of game In this country for all

NEBRASKA'S LAST BUFFALOES
Becollections of tha Hunt in Which the
Small Herd Wu Exterminated.

Former Plalaanaaa Reeoaati the
Slaughter of Bsack of Twelve
Remoraa After the Fihtlaxat

A well-known sportsman in New York
City, who, although not too old to cast a
fly or draw a bead, la still counted among
the gray-haired veterans of the fraternity.
recounts. In the New York Bum some of
his early exploits, and, among other things.
his first and last buffalo hunt. In that hunt
he says the last herd of buffaloes In Ne
braska and one of the last In the United
States waa wiped out.
The exhilaration of the slaughter was !nv
mense, but this man has felt remorse ever
since; and although somebody would prob
ably have to hold him if the same oppor
tunity were offered again under the aame
circumstances, still, he would, he declares,
greatly enjoy being kicked soundly by an
able-bodied man with large boots if he re
peated his part In the killing.
"It was my good or 111 fortune, take It
any way you please," sal a he, "to find my
self located, in the year 1975, in the small
hamlet of Melrose, Harlan county, south
west Nebraska. For two or three years
that section of the country had been devas
tated by grasshoppers; immigration huJ
entirely ceased, the trend being east In
stead of west, and the few settlers who re
mained were having a hard time of it, be
ing supported chiefly by the government
on cornmeal, beans and salt pork, and for
fresh meat depending altogether on their
rlflea,
"It waa these circumstances which af
forded me, a tenderfoot, the opportunity to
Join with two veterans on a hunt for buf
falo meat and pelts when news reached the
place that a herd the first that had ap
peared In several months In the state had
been sighted west from Melrose. At that
time there were only a few of the animals
left in Nebraska, and not many In other
states, and we knew that the settlers would
soon have the pelta of all of them In their
wagons. The great slaughter occurred in
1872-3-4, and. although Nebraska prohibited
the transportation of hides through the
state In 1873, and Kansas did so a year
later, the precautions were taken too late.
OS for the Slaaghter.
"It was early in the morning of a day In
August when Newell, Bill and mysell
started out In the direction where the herd
was reported to have been seen. We knew
at the time that the herd was the last in
the state and probably the last In tho
country. ,
"At Melrose the Republican river is
Joined by the Sappa and the Reaver, and
while the Republican trends nearly due
west, the Sappa west and south and the
Beaver still further south and west, they
all flow nearly parallel, being only thirty
or forty miles apart at their headwaters.
They are Joined by many tributaries, and In
the day, of the buffalo the region was one
of the greatest pasture grounds in tha
country for them. It was to this section
that the Pawnees, Comanches and southern
Sioux sought permission from the govern
ment to come from their reservations for
their annuul meat supply, and it was in
one of the draws between the Republican
and Sappa rivers that the Pawnees were
nearly exterminated by the Sioux in 1874.
Our equipment when we started con
sisted of two Sharp sporting rifles and a
small carbine this for the tenderfoot; two
good horses, a spring wagon, three 'barrels
of provisions, plenty of ammunition and
finally a large yellow cur relate distantly
to the mastiff.
"Fording the Republican and Sappa
rivers, we took the north bank of the
Beaver and at nightfall found ourselves ai
Beaver City, which consisted of a postofflce,
general store und hotel all in one, and one
dwelling house. It was the last settlement
west of Melrose.
"At daybreak the next morning we again
took the road, so-called, still following the
Beaver, and passed a ranch or two where
thousands of cattle were roaming and a
stray cowboy or two were on guard. It
was toward evening that J had my first
opportunity to try my carbine on game. I
noticed a large black bird sitting on a
limb of an old cottonwood tree.
"'Game for my gun!' I yelled, as x
Jumped out tof the wagon, and, raising the
sights for 200 yards, blazed away.
An Oralnons Scent.
"Not a feather moved; the bird didn't
even-look surprised; It might have been
Poe's raven, leaving out the croak. I
asked Newell f 200 yards wasn't about
right. It was, and I tried again. Same re
sult. The third shot dropped him, though.
I allowed I must have my game.
" 'Certainly; go get it,' said Newell.
"1 noticed as I approached the quarry
a mighty disagreeable odor, but never sup
posed it came from the feathered . thing
ahead until my nose got directly over the
bird. And then great Caesar I Before I
reached the wagon I lost my wind and
my conceit was greeted with roars of
laughter, which made me lose my temper
also.
"Some time subsequently I waa Informed
that the bird was a turkey buzzard, a prai
rie scavenger. When gorged it can be
knocked over with a club, but is seldom
molested. Nearly every buffalo hunter has
had an experience with the bird one time
or other, but one experience is usually suf
ficient. "At night we camped far beyond the
sound of any civilization, and the next day
we left the Beaver valley and struck oft
for the divide between the Beaver and the
Sappa. We were now tn buffalo territory
and in the section where we had heard the
last animals in the state had herded.
"Following the divide all the afternoon,
watching north down toward the Sappa
and south toward tha Beaver, we continued
on the hunt till night compelled us to fol
low an old buffalo trail down to Medicine
creek for camp and water. . .
"Early on tha morning of the fourth day
we climbed back up the divide and con
tinued our way weatward. It was about 10
o'clock when we saw, off toward the Sappa,
black dota on the surface of the prairie
looking almost like ants.
"Newell's practiced eye spotted them at
once for the herd, . Then the excitement
began. Horses were unhitched and teth
ered to the wagon. Also the yellow cur.
Cartridge belts we're buckled on, bowle
knives adjusted in their sheaths and, with
our rifles trailing, away we went, quarter
ing to bead tha herd.
"The wind waa In our favor, or they
would have scented us. They fed rapidly
and covered the ground fast. With Newell
In tho lead, we scouted down a draw and
up another, and then Newell, peering cau
tiously over the bank, morloned us to come
on. Then I had my first good view of the

didn't want the old bull first, but some of
the younger ones.
"The rest of the herd continued to feed
until they 'came up with the leader. Then
all stopped, but ss the big bull did nothing
to spread the alarm, they resumed their
feeding, spreading out again.
"Newell handed me his rifle, remarking:
" 'Your shootln' iron ain't no account In
thla game. I want ye t' down yer first 'un.
Aim just over the grass and back of the
fore shoulder, low down, mind you, low
down.'
"It was minutes before I could steady my
nerves to drsw a bead on any part of the
animal, let alone the spot mentioned, but
Anally, trusting In God more than in my
eyesight, I fired and an Instant later Bill's

that I could shoot again until Newell
snatched the rifle from me.
"A Bill fired I saw one animal fall, but
the one I aimed at simply Jumped up end
down stiff-logged for a moment; then fol
lowed after the running herd. Newell, the
best rifle shot I ever knew, was doing
frightful execution. He had two down and
another badly crippled before they got out
of range.
"He saw my disappointment and cheered
me with the Information that we would find
my buffalo down within a mile. Sure
enough we did. I had aimed too high and
the bullet had pierced his lungs a mistake
that was committed by all amsteurs owing
to the peculiar build of the buffalo.
"The pelts were stripped, the meat cut up
and packed In tho empty provision barrele
and the chase resumed tha next day. We
fell In with another party of three that
day, who had heard of the animals, and
within the next forty-eight houra the last
herd of buffalo In Nebraska, if not the last
In the country, had been annihilated.

from his chair after a few seconds of
silence, "you may kick me now," and the
expression of his face showed that he
