MULINO
Quite a number from this part of
the world took in the rose show at
Portland, and the rose show took
thorn in after a fashion. It is a gen
era 1 concensus of opinion that all of
the five or six dnys of parades, etc.
could jUBt as well be had in one or
two days at most. People go there
expecting to tee. something worth
while every day, but are disappoint
ed. The writer of this heard people
from adjoining states say thoy did ex
poet to see something, but that the
decorations wore " bum" to say the
least. The ruportor who says in f
Thursday paper that some of the speo
tutors were hogs, evidently overlooked
the fact that as a whole visitors to
the show are treated like swine and
oompnllod to pay for poor car and
seat service at every turn, especially
street oar servloe. Strangers to the
city have an exceedingly hard time to
locate places advertised as attractive
points where the parados, etc., oan be
Been, nnless one buys a grandstand
ticket. The policemen on duty wore
very courtoous. TliouBauds of poople
waited an honrovor timo those who
had oonrago to wait for the armory
to opou its doors. Must have been a
case of sotting the time lock wrong,
as in the cam of the story of Na
poleon, and when the doors were
ready to opou a loud voiced sargoant
or Bomotliing announced that all
would have to pay 25 cents to get in
to see the rose show I So it appoars to
outsiders that the whole allair is
simply a "hold up" game to purloin
money from suckers. Portland is a
beautiful oity and many lino poople
live there, and it is to be hoped the
craving for notoriety and gain does
not lead the businoss men to ovordo
their opportunity to boooiue popular,
and make the city a place obnoxious
to visitors.

THESE THREE ADVANTAGES ALONE MAKE
THE CHAMPION MOWER
SUPERIOR TO ALL OTHER MACHINES
mm
KNIFE HEAD. The Champion KnifeHead has a broad bearing surface. Parts are of
case hardened steel to prevent wear. The knife head is long and very strong. Wear
caused by the revolving pitman is automatically taken up bv means of an adjustin
device.
COUPLING YOKE. The coupling yoke is wide and very substantial, making it
impossible for the knife to get out of line with the pitman.
COUPLING PINS. The coupling pins are large and case hardened. They provide
excellent bearing surfaces. The wide yoke, long pins and the substantial way in
which the shoe is attached to the yoke insures positive alignment of the knife and
pitman.
