More Royal Clinchers
for 1923
United States Tires
are Good Tires
HE U. S. Tire people
took plenty of time in
developing the Royal
Clincher Cord.
When it was finally placed
on sale there were no mis­
takes in it.
Last year we couldn’t
make Royal Clinchers fast
enough.
Production for 1923 has
been more than doubled.
But whenever and wher­
ever you can get a Royal
Clincher—take it.

RETAIN QUALITY
OF MILK SUPPLY
FLIES AND DUST INJURIOUS
Producer Should Have All Manure
Heaps Removed and Fill In All
Low Places—Important That
Plant Be Kept Clean.
(Prepared by the United State* Department
of Agriculture.)
Summer Is the most strenuous sea­
son for those engaged In the dairy
business, both producers and distribu­
tors, and at the sa.ae time greater re-
j sponslbillty rests on the consumer to
keep the milk or cream wholesome
after it has been delivered. Great care
is necessary at all seasons to supply
safe and pleasing products, but during
warm weather every means must be
taken to prevent contamination and
keep down the temperature, from the
time milk Is drawn from the cow un­
til It Is consumed. The presence of
flies and dust, and the rapid multipli­
cation of bacteria due to heat, are the
chief summer difficulties.
Where Responsibility Rests.
The responsibility for a good, clean,
palatable product rests almost equally
on producer, distributor and consumer,
snys the United States Department of
Agriculture In calling attention to the
Importance of preventive measures,
many of which may be taken at once
on farms and In milk plants
There are many ways in which the
milk producer may prepare to meet
the adverse conditions of summer, says
the department. To reduce the num­
ber of flies and keep the cows clean
he should hnve all the manure heaps
removed this spring. Low places In
the yards may be filled In tn prevent
the formation of puddles. Screens
should he repaired before files nrrlve.
Fl.v traps and poison. If used early ini
the senson. will help to reduce the
number of the pests later In the sum­
mer. Sterilizing equipment and coolers
should be In good condition, so there
will be little danger of their being out
of use at any time during the hot
weather. It Is particularly important
that dairymen sterilize strainer cloths,
often a prolific source of contamina­
tion.
Milk distributors nre urged to pre­
pare for the danger months by giving
the plant and surroundings a thorough
cleaning, by fixing the screens, paint­
ing machinery and fixtures so that It
will be easier to keep them clean, re­
placing worn parts, and making sure
of a plentiful supply of Ice. The dealer
Is also reminded that he can do a
great deal to improve the milk supply
by urging producers to take precau­
tions ngnlnst contamination and to
provide for rapid cooling.
Important Work of Consumer.
The consumer can do hts part In a
number of ways. The most important,
pcrlinps, Is the taking In of the bottle«'
from the doorstep before the milk or’
cream has become warm. The next
thing Is to keep It cold until the time
for use. The more milk la poured
from one container Into another the
more chances for contamination, and
for that reason It Is best to keep It in
the original container until all of It la
used. The cap should be kept on the
bottle or the contents should be pro­
tected by covering the bottle with an
Inverted tumbler. The consumer will
help a great deal by cleaning the bot­
tles and returning them promptly to
the dealer. Milk bottles should not be
used for anything except milk or
cream, as It la very difficult to rid
them of foreign odors and tastes. It
goes almost without saying that a
clean refrigerator Is an Important fac­
tor In keeping milk good-flavored and
wholesome.

HOME POINTERS
(From O. A. C. Extension Service.)
Canning powders are unnecessary
in canning fruits and vegetables if
the products are carefully prepared
and scientific directions are fol­
lowed. Using such powders encour­
ages carelessness in work and the
use of food which is unsound and
unfit to eat. They may prevent de­
cay of the fruit or vegetable but
their extensive use may be injurious
to health. The pure food law pro­
hibits canning powders in commer­
cially canued foods in order to pro­
tect consumers but it cannot keep
women from using them and in this
way giving their families foods
such as the government would not
permit commercial concerns to soli.

It Is Important to allow plenty of
seed to the acre when planting pota­
toes. While In many cases a planting
rate of seven to tan bnahris per acre
gives a good yield. It la almost certain
that a rato of 12 to Ifi bnshaia of seed
per acre will return the extra aeed
several times When seed Is relatively
cheap as much as 18 bushels of seed

Sllvermlne, a midseason white oat
very popular In the Northern states,
Is the variety of oats most extensive­
ly grown In the United States, accord­
ing to estimates made recently by the
United States Department of Agricul­
ture in determining the extent and dis­
tribution of the different oat varieties.
Sllvermlne Is grown on about one-
sixth of the total acreage, or 0,304,000
acres, as determined on the basis of
the last census—1919. Only 11 of the
commercially Important varieties were
grown on more than 1 per cent of the
total acreage.
Red Rustproof, the variety most
commonly grown In the Southern
states, ranked second with 15.8 per
cent of the total acreage, or 0,015,(XX)
acres. Swedish Select, a mfdseason
white variety, Introduced by the de­
partment 25 years ago. was grown on
3,032,000 acres.

Sixty Day. early oats from southern

while two selections from Kherson.
Albion (Iowa No. 103), and Richland
(Iowa No. 105) were grown on 1,500,-
000 and 411.(XX) acres, respectively.
These two selections were developed
In co-operative experiments conducted
by the department and the Iowa agri­
cultural experiment station. Green
Russian outs were grown on 2,228,000
acres, and White Tartar, a late side
oats, on 2,225,000 acres. Other varie­
ties grown on from 1 to 2 per cent of
the total acreage were Early Cham­
pion, Hurt and Lincoln.

When fowls won’t stay inside the
fence, wings have to be clipped, to
protect the garden and flower beds.
The Cornell experiment station recom­
mends the following plan for clipping
the wing so It will stay clipped with­
out disfiguring the fowl:
Remove a few feathers around the
second joint. Spread the wing out to
Its full width and you will see just be­
neath the skin on the outer edge of
the second joint a small white liga­
ment or cartilage. Insert a small knife
blade under the Hgmnent and cut It In
two, pulling upward and outward on
the knife. Then cut a piece from the
end of the cartilage one-sixteenth of
an inch long. This may be done with
a pair of scissors or with a knife. The
object In removing this section is so
the cartilage will never grow together
again. Since rjo major arteries are en­
countered, you will And this a very

of Furniture, Home Furnishings, Stoves,
Rugs, etc., the Willamette Valley Has
Ever Known—Read This Saving Message
After many years in business,- never conducting a Hale, this great Furniture Emporium,
with one of the largest, and finest stocks of Home Furnishings to be found in any part
of the Northwest, is forced by unfortunate circumstances to sacrifice their mammoth
stocks and place everything on sale at the lowest prices ever known in years.
HERE’S THE REASON Last year Wetherbee-Walker Furniture Co. contracted
for a new building, expecting to expand. This spring, and before the advance in
prices, they purchased car loads of furniture, ranges, stoves, nigs, etc., in anticipation
of this move. Recently this contract, was cancelled, leaving them with their store and
warehouses packed and jammed with merchandise that, must be sold.
Consequently they are going to conduct a sale of Furniture, Stoves, Ranges, Rugs,
Linoleum, Cooking Utensils, etc., greater in scope than any ever attempted in Eugene,
the Willamette Valley, or the Northwest it will be so important and remarkable in
both values and price cutting no family or young couple expecting to furnish a home
will fail to attend and buy their every needs. We’ll look for you Saturday it will be
one of the greatest days in Eugene’s history.
