'Casey Brewster Quits
Kennard Appointed
At a meeting of the State Water
BiMird on September 1 , the resigna
tion of Geo. it. Brewster as water
master for this district was received
and accepted and the vacancy was
at once filled by the appointment of
H. G. Kennard to that position.
It is said that Brewster will be
come the manager of the Squaw J
Creek Irriagtion company with head
quarters at Sisters.
Kennard has been employed ns
assistant water muster on the east
side of the country for the present
season, and for two years previous
had been employed at Tumalo, a part
of that time on the Tumalo Project.
The resignation of Brewster will
no doubt be of political importance,
for about him there has been con
siderable contention in court house
circes for some months past. There
is no explanation offered for this
action at this time.

mentioned the matter of good roads.
He has one idea especially that ap
peals to one who likes order ami
precision in all tilings, and that is a
straight line road from the top of

may sound like a vision but it is an
idea that is worthy of consideration
and we hope that will be realized.

Profit-Sharing with Retail Buyers
On August 1, 1911, we made the announcement that If we
could make and sell nt retail 300,000 Ford cars between August
1, 1914 and August 1, 1015 we would share profits with the re
tail purchasers, to the extent of from 1 40 to f t0 on each car.
we have sold over 300,000 Ford cars In the time specified, and
profit-sharing checks of 50 each will be distributed as rapidly
as possible after August 15, 1915, Retail purchasers who have
not yet mailed us their profit-sharing coupons, property en
dorsed, should do so without delay.
Our plan to profit share with retail purchasers of Ford cars
during 1914-15 has been most successful. vc thorounhly be
lieve in it, but, realizing the uncertainty of conditions general
ly makes it advisahle to defer any announcement of future profit-sharing
until a lutej date.
we are, however, confident of our inability to reduce costs for
several months, and therefore can offer no profit-sharing for
cars delivered during August, September and October, 1915.
