CASE TRACOR IS
PUT TO TEST
A. E. Harvey who has the agency
for Columbia county for the Case
tractor feels sure that the Case will
go anywhere on earth -and pull a plow
behind It. Several day ago he put
the Case to a severe test. It was
to plow some land on tho Lampkln
place near Uie aJP. & 8. depot at
Clatskanie. This is diked land and
naturally quite aoft. Twelve inch
tires were put on the plows and the
large number of farmers present to
witness the demonstration, saw the
Case do a beautiful job of plowing.
As a result of tho showing made
Mr. Harvey sold two tractors, one to
J. W. Meyer and one to Walter Fogei.
He states he has aeveral parlies in
terested and expects to place severJ
tractors with enterprising and pro
gressive furmer tn the near future.
GOOD RECORD FOR

She freshened November 6th, and in
25 days produced 45 pounds of but
ter and 966 pounds of milk. In
January 50 pounds of butter und 724
pounds of milk.
Mr. Sherwood thinks this is a fine
record for a 2-year old.

SCAPPOOSE TO
BE INCORPORATED
At the election held Saturday In
Scappoose to decide whether or not
the town would be incorporated, the
vote was 67 for and 30 against. The
tlect'ou created much Interest and it
was thought that the vote, would bb
closer, but evidently the opposition
could not muster the strength they
expected. Those In favor of the in
corporation felt confident the meas
ure would carry, but did not ex
pect to wlu out by such a majority.

Fast Motor Curs Will lljrhi (itera
tion Over Columbia Highway
Astoria and Portland will bo
linked Willi another transportation
line on March 15, when the first
auto bus service between these two
points will be placed In operation.
This was the announcement made by
Frank Shepard of the Shepard s Au
to Bus company of Portland, who
was a visitor In the city on Sunday.
A. Jaloff, of the A. J. Auto Com
pany or Astoria will be associated
witn Mr. Shep.ird In the new enter
prise. According to the present
plans the Jaloff company will oper
ate buses from Astoria to Rainier
connecting up with tho Shepard
company In that city.
The first bus will leave Astoria
about 9 o'clock In the morning, tu
riving at Halnier ut 11:30. where a
stop of one-half hour will he made,
for lunch. Passengers will tnen
transfer leaving Rainier at onon, ar
riving in Portland at 2:30.
Tho second trip during the day
will leave Astoria uhotu. 3 o'clock
In the afternoon, arriving at Rain
!er about 6:30 and Portland at 8
o'clock. Busses will leave Portland
on the same schedules as Astoria,
arriving In this city at 2:30 and at
b o clock. There may possibly bo
some slight changes in this tentative
schedule.
Mr. Shepard has been ODeratme
motor buses between Portland and
St. Helens for the past seven years
and during all that time states that
ho has never left a passenger stand
ing on the sidewalk.
"We make it a point to leave on
schedule time regardless of the num
ber of passengers on hand," said
Mr. 8hepr.rd. On a number of oc
casions it lias cost us $12 to carry
one passenger for $1.10 from Port
land to St. Helens, but I have learn
ed that in the long run It has paid
not to deviato from our regular
schodule.
"I believe that mere 19 a new
field for development from Portland
lo Astoria and we hope to build up
a business which will add one more
strong link between Portland and
tha sea.
"Mr. Jaloff has the confidence of
the people of Astoria and vicinity
and this in Itself will be a strong
point in the plan for Inter-city ser
vice over the Columbia Highway. In
the Portland to Astoria run no pas
senger will between the Rose City
and St. Hetpne-ar vrer will continen
our run between these two points.
Our headquarters in Portland will
be at the St. Charles Hotel." As
torian. The above news item appeared in
an Astoria paper and will be inter,
esttng to the people of Columbia
county because the auto stage will
also serve them. St. Helens will be
made a regulur stop according to
"Blondy" who drives the bus on the
Portland-St. Helens run.
