CO., CHICAGO Sold by all Grocers 1,000 Farmers Wanted in Portland One thousand Oregon, Washington and Idaho farmers are wanted in Portland this week. It is believed their presence will have an influence on locating the federal land bank. Following the visit here of Frank R. Wilson, representing the infor mation department of the federal land bank, strenuous efforts were begun yesterday to interest farmers in attending the hearing to be held at the postofflce building next Wed nesday morning. Letters were sent to all the mast ers of state granges and to many members of the Farmers' union. Then followed a batch of tele grams from the committee to Inter ested citizens in various sections of the. stato. It is believed the board of con trol, which is to conduct the hear ing, will be more Interested in know ing from farmers what their real needs are than in getting the In formation from any other source. It Is undoubtedly true that the intention is to locate the bank for this district where it will serve the best interests of farmers already here as well as to aid in the future de velopment of the country.

Gasoline Cheap Fuel For Plowing Land The average amount of fuel con sumed ill plowing an acre of ground with a tractor in Illinois as reported by tractor owners is slightly more than 2 gallons, accordiug to Farm ers' Bulletin 719. The size of the tractor seems to have little influence on the amount required, or on the quantity of lubri cating oil used, the latter averaging approximately one-fifth of a gallon per acre. The depth of plowing averaged very nearly 7 inches. Gasoline is used as fuel by most of the tractor owners in Illinois, the average price paid for same during 1915 being 12 cents per gallon, while lubricating oil average 32 cents per gallon. At these prices the cost for gaso line and oil per acre would be about 36 cents, but the prospective pur chaser of a tractor should not make the mistake of assuming that this will be the entire cost, as deprecia tion and interest usually amount to more than the expense for fuel and oil. jD)n You wnnt a gom, desirable piece of Improved business property for an Investment?
