EXPLAINED BY CHAIRMAN
, Some misapprehension regarding
the word "convertibility," used in
connection 'with third Liberty loan
bonds, seems to have arisen in the i
minds of the public, according to let
ters received at state Liberty loan
headquarters, some persons confusing
the term with negotiability.
Edward Cookingham, state execu
tive chairman, in a letter to the Cour
ier Tuesday morning gave out the
following statement regarding the
meaning of the words:
"I would like to make it plain to
all purchasers of bonds that the
Third Liberty Loan bonds are both
negotiable and transferable and in
that respect do not differ at all from
the first and second issues of Liberty
bonds.
"The word 'convertibility' has no
reference whatever to the negotiabil
ity of the bonds. This particular is
sue is not 'convertible' into any other
bonds which may be issued later in
the war, but that does not mean that
the bonds are not negotiable or
transferrable or deliverable in the
freest possible manner at any time
and to any person who may purchase
the bonds or to whom the holder may
desire to transfer them."
Official pamphlets containing de
tailed information regarding, third
Liberty loan bonds may be had from
State Liberty Loan headquarters, 222
Northwestern Bank building, Port
land, for the asking.
UNITED STATES SENA
TOR CHARLES L. M'NARY
Because 'United States Senator
Charles L. McNary has made good he
should be nominated to succeed him
self in the Republican Primary,
May 17th.
From the day he became senator he
has loyally championed the prosecu
tion of the war, and during his term
of office has accomplished more for
Oregon than any. other member in
Congress in a like period.
Among his colleagues he is known
as "the man on the job," and during
the present war crisis Oregon should
consider itself fortunate in having
an opportunity to return him and not
be compelled to send to Washington,
a new, untrained man. -
Believing that the supreme oblL
gation he owes his country is to help

FREE SEED KEEP GARDENS
OF WHOLE NATION GREEN
To comparatively few of us has it
ever occurred that the United States
government is one of the world's
largest buyers of garden and flower
seed, says the May Popular Mechan
ics magazine. The few ounces of
seed carried to us by the postman
give no impression of the acres up
on acres of land devoted to their
propagation, or the care taken in de
termining their fitness for planting.
But these small envelopes represent
tens of thousands of others, and those
represent tens of thousands of pounds
of the best seeij procurable.
It is illuminating to know that the
aggregate weight of the free seed
circulated from Washington this
spring amounted to 499,06 tons, or,
for- the sake of juggling figures,
16,969,920 ounces. Of this amount,
it is also interesting to know, corn
seed predominated, 850,000 lb. of it
being mailed to various sections of
the country. Machines are used
which automatically proportion the
seed by weight, fill the individual
packages and seal them.
