D. P. ADAMS0N & COMPANY
GAS POWKK.
Tlio first small gasoline traoti.r
for this immediate vicinity is here
and that many others will follow
soon is a safe prophesy.
There ate so many tilings that a
maonine of this kind can do that
hjrse flesh can't that every farm of
any considerable size will have its
tractor during the next half-dozen
years.
The first tractors were of such
size and weight and so expensive,
bolh to purchase and operate that
their use was beyond the average
farmer, but a tractor that has the
flexibility of the present day
machine, and one which can be had
for less than $1000 is a neeeesity on
every farm where much work is to
be done with more than Iwo horses.
Anyone who has used large teams
in farming operations knows that
the day's work is decidedly limited,
and that heat and many other
things effect the range of useful
ness of horses which wil not be an
item with a machine of the gas
tractor type.
Another great benefit that will
be realized by the farm with a I
tractor is the ability to perform an j
operation of whatever nature is !
necessary such as discing or harrow-!
ing. when the time is best suited
for that work.
Every farmer knows that when
the ground is right for plowing, for
example, it should be plowed, and if
a man could plow his entire field
in one day it would be good busi
ness for him.
The use of a truck for the farm
er and stockman is becoming com
mon and the passenger ear for
pleasure and,business is to be found
on almost every ranch.
The tractor is next and they are
all good investments.
Congressman "Nick'' Sinnott has
requested the Journal to assist him
in the distribution of the govern
ment vegetable and flower seeds
allotted to him for this community
by the department of Agriculture.
This method of distributing seeds
through cooperation with the news
papers of his district was first tried
by our congressman last year. It
worked so satisfactorily that he is
repeating it this year. It was
found that this method got the
seeds in the hands of those really
desiring them, and so was far bet
ter than the method of sending
them out indiscriminately. Con
gressman Sinnot also requesed us
to announce that he retained a
small quantity of the seed at his
office in Washington, Room 494
House of Representatives. Anyone
failing to obtain seeds otherwise
may thus get them directly by
writing him there, so long as the
supply lasts.

Hi.th the Press and the Bulletin
at Ber.d are issuing afternoon
papers and in commenting on the
fact the i'ortland Journal says that
the nerve of the man in the trench
in Europe is nothing a compared
to these Bend editors, Bnd we think
the comparison is a good oik-. We
wish them every success, however,
and hope the venture will be a
profitable one.
During iSanta'Claus' visit to our
store this week we had our photog
rapher take his picture which can
bo seen in another section of this
