Jlontana is .shouin
way of iiilerestinjf women in polities. Women party workers
are jfoins: around and rej-istei injr women voters in their own
kitchens, hy deputy notaries. It ives the workers at the
.i.'ime time a fine chance to talk politics and Ret the women
lined up for election day. They expect to turn out a full
women's vote. This is "hrinifinH: politics home to women"
for sure. It is an example likely to he imitated in other
states. .Men, too, may take their cue from it. Instead
ol passively waiting for male voters to come to the rejfistra
'tion places, or in special c;isW mnnding theih up and taking
them to 1'cjriKter, it may occur to earnest male workers to
tiike the register to the voters.

wiys a real estate man, and ho makes a pretty jrood casej
lie is trying to reassure prospective investors who fear that
the carrying expenses of a jfood huildin"; lot will lie too
heavy. .
"Land which will not earn enough to pay its canyinc,!
charnes is mighty scaix-e in or near this city," he says. "Co-'

real estate jroes. he cannot recall a sinjrle instance where the;
enhancement in km, values in allotment property has not
jrreatly exceeded all carryinir chiirj-es. In fact, reliable sta-'
listics show increases in value of four, five and six times'
the item of expense." i
This may not he true in all cities, or in all sections of'
any city. P.ul it is prohahly true in the Win majority ol'j
American cities, and is a factor to figure on in niakiiijr real'

In any ni'owin; community, land values are necessm ily '

This is the leason, the writer ohserves. why so many'
real estate companies are satisfied to Imy larjie sections for'

Byrd Expedition Takes
Brookfield Butter!
Commander Richard E. Byrd k nows Ihc value of good food as
a builder of strength and morale. His staunch steamships, the City
of New York and the Chelsea, bound for the South Pole are carrying
many products of Swift & Company.
Brookfield Butter, creamery fresh, is part of the precious car
goesa sufficient supply for the band of hardy scic-.'.iuts and the
crew during their long sojourn in the Antarctic.
Other Swift & Company products that will add pleasure to the
meals aboard ship and on the icy wastes are:
Premium Frankfurts Pork Loins
Calf Liver Ox Tails Pigs Feet
"Golden West" Fowl Turkeys
Brookfield Butter is made in selected dairy regions and delivered
to all parts of this country by quickest routes possible fresh from
the churn!
Thus the producer is furnished a daily cash market for his
butterfat and the Swift nation-wide system of distribution assures
consumers everywhere of fine creamery fresh Brookfield Butter as
well as other Swift food products.

Your Money
Secured by the
Best Property
in La Grande--
Good security is the secret of good in
vestments. The reason why building and loan asso
ciations are so popular for savings is
because of the unprecedented safety.
Homes and improved business property
--the most desirable property in the
city in most cases.
First mortgages on this class of prop
erty is behind your investment --and
it's made better each month as the loans
are paid off in installments.
A building and loan association has
never, failed in the state .of Oregon!
Think of the Safety!
