Roger's Silverware
Given Away
ToCarr'sCustomers
in 1922
We have made arrangements with the company where
by they will distribute their silverware to our customers at
no cost to our customers or ourselves. Rogers silverware
is one of the oldest and best known brands in the country,
and as this is purely an advertising proposition on their
part, they Will of course send out only their standard grade
goods. ' ,
THE PROPOSITION IS THIS: With each 25c pur
chase made in our store we give a card and these cards are
to be saved and when you have sufficient cards to get the
item of silverware you wish, you send them in and the item
is sent you post-paid and absolutely free. The schedule of
cards necessary for the different items is given on the back
of each card.
REMEMBER
There is no cost to you. With each 23c of your pur
chase you get a card. - (For instance, a 99c purchase
entitles you to 3 cards, a $1.00 purchase to 4 cards). This
proposition is limited in Roseburg to only Carr's Store. It
s to your profit to
BUY AT

and get silverware absolutely free.
Ex-Soldiers Have Opportunity
of Buying Lands With
Bonus Money.
SYSTEM WORKED OUT
American Legion Pout Securing Op.
tloua on Larva Tracts of Land
Which Will Be Sold on Easy
Payments to Kx-8oldlere.
The state land committees of the
American Legion is launching a
state-wide movement for the purpose
of obtaining land in every district
of the state which may be purchased
by Oregon ex-service men under the
provisions of the Oregon Bonus Law.
Full cooperation of every Legion post
in the state Is being urged and given
in practically every instance.
The plan of action may be put In
concrete form by using the work of
Crook county Post of Prlnevllle as
an example. In Crook county, under
the leadership of the legion post, the
Interests of the city of Prlnevllle and
Crook county have been eomblned
for the purpose of providing a means
for ex-service men to settle on the
Ochoco project. R. L. Schee, a mem
ber of the post, has been in the Held
during the past three months, obtain
ing options cn land which may be
purchased by ex-service men with the
bonus money. Several thousand
acres of land have been optioned in
thlrf way and they are now ready to
take care of any number of soldiers
who wish to acquire land on this
project.
The way in which Oregon ex-soldiers
can purchase land with the
bonus money is as follows: The
owner of the land gives clear title to
.the soldier; the soldier uses this title
to obtain the bonus; 20 per cent of
the purchase price of the land is
paid to the owner, from the bonus
and the ex-soldier gives a second
mortgage to the owner of the land
for the balance due. The 8 Oper cent
balance left of the bonus money shall
Ue expended Jointly by the parties of
the first and second parts for Im
provements on the lnnd and for the
purpose of supporting the ex-soldler
who takes the land until such land
Is self-supporting. The second mort
gage is paid off on the Rams terms
as the bonus Is paid oft, I. e., 28
years at 4 per cent plus 2 per cent
paid on the principal annually.
The Squa Creek Irrigation Dis
trict of central Oregon has 1400
acres which will be sub-divided and
sold to ex-soldiers under the above
terms. ' Soveral. thousand-, acres in
the Ochoco have been secured on the
same terms. The owners of over
10 acres of dike land on the lower
Columbia have agreed to sell their
land la the same way.
The State Chamber of Commerce
has on file letters from various land
owners throughout the Willamette
Valley, who are willing to give ex
soldiers an opportunity to purchase
land under this plan.
Attorney Quy Cordon, who is a
member of the state land committee,
states that he will be glad to receive
Information on any tracts In the
Umpqua valley which may lie dispos
ed of under these terms. The plan
does not apply to small tracts of land
but only to large projects where col
onization may be effected. In the
event such tracts are for sale in the
Urapqua valley, Mr. Cordon states
he will be glad to take the informa
tion before the State Land Commit
tee and have the land thrown open
to the ex-service men who desire to
b,ulld homes there.

OVERFEEDING CAUSES
SHRINKAGE OF STOCK
Weakness in System of Co-operative
Shipping.
Partly Due to Disposition ef Soms
Shippers to Overfill Animals Be
fore Loading Best Plan Is
to Always Play Fair.
(Tnpini br l'nH! Stitrs Department
f At rtcultur I
Reports to the effect that excessive
shrinkage on live stock at central
markets Is frequently experienced sre
sometimes received from members and
managers of co-operative live-stock
shipping associations by the United
States Department of Apiculture.- In
some cases these reports tuke the
form of complaints, and at times the
shrinkage feature is pointed to as a
weakness In the whole system of co
operative shipping.
While many things can, and fre
quently do, result In excessive shrink
age In live stock, investigations have
shown that at times t Is at least part
ly due to a disposition en the part
of some shippers to overfill their stock
before loading. This custom seems
to be a relic from the days before
co-operative shipping came into vogue
and when most small producers sold
their stock to country buyers. Under
the system of marketing wherein live
stock was usually sold on the basis
of home weights, or at most, shipping
point weights. It was usually to the
producer's advantage to obtain a gen
erous "fill" on his stock before turn
ing It over to the country drover.
The co-operative system of shipping
live stock, however, practically elim
inates the incentive to excessive home
or shipping point Alls. Stock that
Is fed heavily Just before loading Is
not only quite likely to sicken and
sometimes die while In transit, but
seldom takes a good All when It ar
rives at market. Furthermore, where
co-operative shipments are graded at
the shipping point the man whose
stock has been given a heavy All re
ceives more than his Just proportion
of the net returns. Home gruding of
co-operative shipments Is, In most In
stances, highly desirable, but It can
be successful only where the individ
ual members "play fair" with each
other or, In other words, where they
really co-operate.
