MALHEUR ENTERPRISE, VALE, OREGON SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1920.. PAGE EIGHT GET READY FOR SPRING BUY YOUR FARM IMPLEMENTS NOW. MR. FARMER: Now is the time you are thinking about the best way to prepare your seed-bed. We want to say, that we sell the Brillion Clod Crusher, Pulverizer and Packer, and to add, that we believe it to be the Best and most profitable Implement a Farmer can use in preparing his seed bed. Bear in mind, that a clod the size of a man's fist is no more productive than a stone. Dr. W. E. Taylor, the famous Soil Expert, says, Rolling after Planting will hasten germination. Numerous tests have de monstrated, that sprouts will form from twenty-four to thirty-six hours sooner, if the ground is rolled after planting than where the soil was nt packed around the kernel. Charles B. Wing, acknowledged Alfalfa Expert, says, the Plow first, then the Spring Tooth Harrow, and then the Clod Crusher, Pulverizer and Packer are absolutely all that is needed to obtain the most satisfactory results. ' The Spring Tooth Harrow brings the clods to the surface where the Pulverizer can get at them. The Pulverizer leaves the ground more level than the Disc. Going over the field each way with a Spring Tooth Har row and pulverizer, leaves the ground in an ideal condition. Last, but not least, ask Mr. B. C. Struthcrs about the results he has obtiiicnd with the corrugated land roller. We have several in stock and would be pleased to have you place your orders now. We also have a complete stock of Two and Four Section Peg Tooth Harrows, and Spring Tooth Harrows in all sizes. After Seeding, your Ditches will need attention, and here is where the Martin Ditcher comes in handy. We have them in the popular sizes, and if you have ditch work to do, either to clean out old ditthes or build new ones, we know of no other implement that will do as much for you as the Martin Ditcher. How about one of those John Deere Low Oown Manure Spreaders? We have fnem.with the beater on the axle. Ask anyone, who has one, about what it will do for you. We have the Oliver and Deere Two Way Plows, that every farmer who irrigates his land wants to use. They are made extra heavy for alfalfa land. Also Walking, Gang and Disc Plows. Then the Superior Grain Drills need no introduction to the farmer, who has grain to plant. We sell the Van Brunt too, in all sizes. For the Harvesting Time, we cany the Dain Bucks, Mowers, Binders, and in fact everything that you may need on the farm. Also, Case Trac tors, and Road Machinery, Threshers and Steam Engines. Don't forget Fairbanks Type Z Engines. They have the Bosch Magneto burn Kerosene and deliver the power. Also, Fairbanks Scales in all sizes. It will soon be time to plant that garden. We have the Iron Age and Planet Jr. Garden Tools, and all kinds of vegetable and garden seeds. We have an especial bargain in a used P & O Engine or Horse drawn Disc Plow, six 24 inch discs equipped with weights for hard ground. New Price about $.r,.r)0.00. Price on this out-fit $300.00 F. O. B. Vale. We have an eight bottom mould board Tractor Gang, that has been used some, with breaker bottoms, that we can make a very attractive price on.

I hnve tried to keep my eyes free from prejudice so that 'he lenses would be unbiased. In the .Tune of lflM Kurope had a place In the sunlight of peace. The fields were filled with peasants, bend ing their bucks to toll. Villagers were happy in the common routine of their simple llres. Factories, mills, mines and shops were filled with men. Wheels hummed, smoke streamed from chimneys. Industry was singing. In the cities traffic roared, trains rallied. It was the story of a busy, working world. Problems there wore, of course, the problems normal to the growth and progress of the world. There was some unrest, too, hut children scam pered to school, patient women sang crooning songs to their hnliies. Men carrying dinner buckets whistled on their way to work. There were shadows-the unlliihled side of the world's street -the slums and the tenements; j hut men and women were planning and fighting the black ugliness, nnd everyone had faith In the tomorrow. The world was making headway It vas growing hetter; Its conscience wa awakened. We were hemming our brother's keeper. It was a normal, sane, good old world. It was good to he alive. Then came the day. the day tht will never be forgo) len - the day that changed the world: the day of four years, at the end of which civilization was slmt hum Id scked. icp right.

When will the heirs be notified they can receive half of what is due them ? We wonder if our school districts are getting half of the taxes due them. And how about our road districts?

Herrett of the Vale district, all well known county farmers were sug gested as the proper board of direct ors for the coming year. The idea of the meeting was to make the county fair a real agricul tural nnd live stock show, and with the newly organized Farm Bureau back of the new board there is no reason why Malheur County cannot TAX SCANDAL spend in their neighborhood. The; stage an annual Harvest Festival or Court can spend the entire county road funds when and where it pleases absolutely. When do you suppose that Jordan Valley, Barren Valley, Westfall, Juntura, Riverside and other interior sections will lever be given the option of accepting fifty per cent of the road money they pay into the county road funds.
