DISTILLATE SAVED DAY FOR
WHEAT RANCHERS IN 192,0
One piece of work by thu Utimtllla
county agent saved 82 Umatilla coun
ty wheat ranchers f 21,724.57 last year
In money in addition to a groater sav
ing in time, .stagnation of business
nntl possible crop loss.
This Important economy was
brought about through ordering coop
eratively twonty-sovon t.ank carloads
of distillate from California for use In
tractors and trucks. With harvest coin
Ins on. Umatilla county farmers found
that distillate was off the markot in
tho Northwest and thoy would prob
ably have to turn to gasoline for
fuel. There was also a serious guso
lino shoitngo and tho situation looked
' bad.
The county agont, howover, located
a supply of distillate In California and
ns a result twenly-sevon carloads
were brought to the county. The to
tal cost was J47,37.33. Tho same
amount of gasoline would havo cost,
JtKl.0Sl.90.
All the Umatilla i-ouiity banks co
operated in financing tho shipment
and not a cent's loss was incurred.
Other nearby counties did some
of tho work on a smaller scalo. Tho
Sherman county agent handled seven
loads of distillate, saving the fanners
approximately $.5000. In Morrow coun
ty five carloads were brought In, sit v.
lug more than $4000 One carload of
distillate was brought to Union coun
ty at a critical time.
Four carloads worp shipped Into
Wasco county as u result of coopera
tion between the county farmers' un
ion and County Agent K. It, .luckmau.
"It Is difficult to estimate tho saving
on this shipment," says County Agent
Jackman. "Most of tho men would
have been compelled to burn gasoline
wheh would cost them $2400 above the
price of the distillate. In addition they
could only buy a barrel or two at a
time and often could get none at alt.
Some farmers could only obtain gaso.
line, by shipping their drums sixty
', flvo miles and their return was often
delayed for many days. This iloluv
during harvest would have made con
tinuous work Impossible. Ono of tho
" gasoline dealers here says that had
p It not been for the distillate fow auto
, mobiles would have been running dur
' ing the harvest season."

MOVIE MOVES
UNUSUAL RACE IS
SHOWN IN
BIG CILM
Racing for a greator prize than
any purso over posted nt a track,
Harry Dlomefield rode Black Beauty
cross-country against Jack Beckett
on Lightning. Again and again tho
positions of the racers changed,
through many chajice .happenings
and desperate risks taken by one
and tho the other of the riders. For
Beckett, bankrupt and hounded by
bailiffs, a fortuno and a girl he de
sired depended upon tho outcome of
tho race. Harry rode to save Jessie
Gordon from a life of misery as tho
wife of tho scoundrel.
Black Beauty knew well that the
winning of the wild race was vitally
Important to his human friends, and
ho strained every norvo to tho ut
termost to catoh and pass tho flylns
thoroughbred ridden by Beckett.
Lightning k ow only that ho was
being cruelly beaten and spurred,
and must rt:n his best to avoid pun
ishment. Now on the rough road, now clear
ing stone walls and hedges to take
short cuts across tho fields, tho ter
rific, race was run to a wildly excit
ing finish.
The long race Is an added sceno in
tho screen version of "Black Beau
ty" prepared by Mr. and Mrs. George
Randolph Chester from the world
famous book by Anna Sewell. Tho
original story left Black Beauty,
rapidly recovering "front tho effects
of his hardships as a cab horso, at
tho Blomcfleld home near Sijulro
Gordon's estate, Birtwlck Hall. To
that point the screen version ad
heres accurately and faithfully to
tho Sewell narrative In every detail.
Mr. and Mrs, Chester havo perform
ed their difficult task with all rev
erence and devotion, and the wild
lace is added us a dramatic and
spectacular climax to tho great Vila
graph special production.
"Black Beauty" will be shown at
tho Kmpress theater three nnys,
starting Tuesday.
Th motion picture version while
Including nil details of "Murk .

an autobiography of a horso, and
never departing from the story n..
originally published, tells also ihe
