everyone who linn pondered upon
the economic condition of thin hoc
tlou of the Malheur Valley.
ThurH Im no gain Haying the fact
that IIiIh section bus been "currying
ull of Km ohrh In one banket." To
depend upon one crop alone In not
good business; and what I more to
Ihu point, to depend upon one cus
tumer ttl'niK for ull the salo of all the
alfalfa of thl region. I short sIkIiI

It would he a mighty convenient

raise all tho alfalfa of (IiIh section,
I 'ny elm County all tho rfult, Canyon
County nil the imtHtoee, and so on.
Hut that can not be dono.
It would also be convenient It all
the cattle and sheep men of lfoetern

lliin to buy their liny but they will
not.
Therefore It l the problem of the
raueher to find h mniket for hi pro
due the lesl market he can find,
too. That being the case, since the
dairyman of Western Oregon, and
the dairymen and stock feeders of
the Middle West, are coneumeiM of

We believe that Onterlo limlnese

TEN years ago you might
have seen one or two
automobiles waiting outside
the station, when the weather
was pleasant.
t
Today the square is crowd
ed with them. And most of
the cars you generally see
there are moderate-price cars.
Anybody who tells you that
owners of moderate-price
cars are not interested in the
quality of their tires has
never met very many of
them.
We come in contact with
the small car owner every
day and we have found that
he isjust as much interested
as the big car owner.
Ill
There is one tire, at least,
that makes no distinction
between small cars and large
cars so far as quality is con
cerned the U. S. Tire.
Every U. S. Tire is jusr
like every other in' quality
the best its guilders know
how to build.
Whatever the size of your
car, the service you get out
of U. S. Tires is the same.
It isn't the car, but the man
who owns the car, that sets
the standard to which U. S.
tires are made.
IV
We feel the same way
about it. That's why we
represent U. S. Tires in this
community.
