FAMOUS AIR PILOT
DROVE A .CADILLAC
IN HIS BOYHOOD
It was at the wheel of a 1905 Cad
illac that Lieutenant Commandoi
Albert C. Read, of the NC-4, the
first airplane to cross the Atlantic,
learned to drive a power propelled
vohicle.
This old Cadillas is still owned by
F. II. Livenuore, of South Hanson,
Mass., who Is very proud of his won
derful . car, and of the boy, now
grown famous, who used to drive it.
Years ago, before going to Anuap
olis, Commander Read lived in South
Hanson. He used to drive around I if
Mr. Liveriuore's Cadillac then, and
if. he should return to South Hanson
today, he could enjoy the same pi-lvl
lege. The veteran car is still in per
feet running order, and as full ot
pep as ever.
Tho car has ong since been di
vested of its original appearance. If
equipment is, perhaps, more prac
tical than beautiful, but its conditio
is still first class.
"Tho old car always goos," said
Mr. Livenuore to a caller. "The ex
cellence of the various parts after
years of use Is wonderful. I use the
car to drive around In all summer
and in the winter time I make nij
living with It sawing wood." Mr.
Llvormore is a Heaven born median
is. His wood sawing outfit, thanks to
his reliable Cadillac, Is one hundred
per cent efficient, and yet In no was
interferes with the car's usefulnesf
in "touring."
Mr. Llvormore does not know the
exact number of mll?s this veteran
of 1905 ha3 covered, but from thn
best information available It has
traveled at .ler.st 150,000 thousand
miles. i

Fifty head are to be exhibited at
Portland and before the Novembei
event Mr. Chandler and Mr. Johnson
will select, from the sixty-five, fifty
of the best. Those fifty hogs will be
mighty flue and the exhbiior who
tr.kos the grand champion prize away
from them will be compelled to show
hogs that ore perfect, plus.
Everyone Is bound to respcit a
hog when he sells for twon'y cent

tensified If anyone will drive out to
the Cavlness ranch, now owned by
Shroedei, and see the Poland China
hogs which Tom Johnsou and War
ren Chandler are putting In shape to
show nt- the Pacific Internallnoal
Live Stock Exposition iu l'ortlund
next November.
These hogs look like thoy belong
to the same family and there are
sixty-five of them. They are tho
smoothest, best proportioned bunch
of ho'is that one will seo in many
days of travel. In fact each individ
ual looks as though ho had been cur
ried and brushed every morning be
fore breakfast.
When asked why the excellent ap
pearance, Tom Johnson, who knows
something about hogs himself, re
marked: "Its the way. .they are fed
and cared for," and then the veteran
stockman explained the conditions.
First of all, the Shroeder ranch
was selected for Its specially fitted
arrangements for feeding. Tho hog
lot is sloping and a slough rum
through it furnlshl",; lots of watei
for tho hog,. Across tho slough is a
field of rye and a field of alfalfa.
To reach theso fields the hogs are
compelled to swim which is good for
them In many wnysi In tho center of
the lot is. on "oiler" where tho hogs
scratch and get oil on ihomsolvej,
thus preventing Insects of any kind
from bothering them. The feeding
shed Is ideal. It is constructed with
low troughs for the feeding and the
