Sunderland, local manager, said
yesterday. Service will be avail­
able to motorists rrom the station
as soon as traffic is permitted on
the highway, which will be Sat­
urday, October 12th.
The Shell Petroleum company
has spared no expense to make
this station the most modern and
attractive in the community. Ap­
proximately $10,000 was spent for
construction and equipment alone.

charge of Jack Butterworth. form­
er Cottage Grove teacher. Mr.
Butterworth is well known here,
especially for his abilities as an

terworth is Leonard King, who
has been employed at the Motor
Inn Service Station for the past
five years. Messrs. Butterworth
and King pass the word along to
a host of friends to call and try
their service at the new station,
and inspect the modern equip­
ment.
There will be free balloons for
the kiddies and a handy gift for
the first fifty customers.

Moderately improved farm mar­
ket prospects in general are indi­
cated from Information Just pub­
lished by the Oregon agricultur­
al extension service, at least for
crops showing no material in­
crease in available supplies for
market during the 1940-41 season.
The improvement is expected to
be associated with the somewhat
higher level of consumer purchas­
ing power expected in the current
marketing season compared with
1939-40. Domestic demand is ex-
1 pected to improve more than
enough to offset poorer foreign
demand prospects owing to the
war.
The report deals more specifi­
cally with market prospects for
apples, potatoes, turkeys, and wal­
nuts, all important commercial
products of Oregon which are
marketed largely during the fall
and winter months. The full re-
port containing this market pros-
|>eets information is available from
county agents or direct from the
' college. It is intended to assist
producers and marketing men in
analyzing the situation and mar­
ket pros,wets in relation to mar­
keting the products they have pro­
duced for sale.
Another section of the enten-
sion service report deals with
farm income prospects for Oregon
in 1940 and indicates a probable
gain of around 5 per cent over
1939 owing to the higher general
average farm prive level in 1940
and probably a slight increase in
gross volume of production.
Considerable data are given on
imports of forage crop seeds, re­
ceipts of which from foreign coun­
tries have declined sharply during
recent months compared with the
same period last year. The decline
is attributed partly to interfer­
ence with internatioanl trade by
the war and partly to increasi'd
d o m e stic p n x iu c tlo n to meet do­
mestic needs.

Our Position!
H If you wore faced with the poBilbility of having 5
acres of your farm taken from the heart of your
property, what would you do?
fl In other words, if you faced the same position that
the customers, stockholders and this company are
facing in the coming P.U.D. election, November 5th,
what would you do?
We propose to do the natural and fair thing in
providing information to our customers and stock
holders whose interests would be vitally affected.
And we will furnish statements of fact to them, to
which they are rightfully entitled.
This company operates under oontrol of Federal
and State governing bodies, which have been desig­
nated by the people. Th»t's why we are called a
Public Utility. Our right of franchise is operative
only on condition that we furnish electric service to
the people in the district we serve, under the laws
controlling Public Utility companies.
Years ago we recognised the need of electric ser­
vice in rural and scattered areas as well as towns
and cities. In order to bring electric service to these
customers, we have built hundreds of miles of line
extensions. Every day we are continuing to expand
this program. These facilities are furnished in ac­
cordance with Public Service Rules prescribed by
those governing bodies responsible.
If The present benefits which you enjoy—the future
benefits to which you look forward—are the result
of planning and building. And as customer require­
ments change we will continue to improve the value
of these benefits.
1| Our customers can and should expect to receive
continued better service at lowest cost. With a sys­
tem such as this, the result of years of building and
experience we can furnish the full benefits and sav.
ing of Bonneville Power as promised—plus a con
tinued saving that may be expected as the business
is allowed to grow and expand. All this will be w ith­
out special investment or obligation on the part of
the people in the proposed Lane County P U D.
