Be sure it i3 permanent. Be sure that your investment will not be in an orphan car," advises Fred M. Powell distributor in the Salem territory for Hudson and Essex. "It is actually a fact that many more motor cars, have failed than have lived. A motor magazine "recently called the roll alpha betically on .the companies that have gone, and there was at least one company' for every letter in the alphabet except Q and X. If only some hopeful manufacturers had turned out Quince and a Xerxes the whole alphabet would have been complete In the grave yard of forgotten machines. "You will find today many motorists with their good money tied p in "orphan cars" cars' on which service is expensive and difficult to get, and cars which will have very little if any re-sale value whatever. , "A motor car, buyer today is careless indeed if he ties up his money in any car which hasn't a successful company behind it. He is risking the loss of a consider able5 sum of money. The sensible thing la to see that 'the car : itself Is good, that the company Is sound and most important that the com pany Is progressive and abreast of the times. A company may have a historic past but If it isn't pro gressive look out! " "On this basis, the wise buyer will find a new and added respect for Hudson and Essex cars. Not only is the cbncern well-seasoned, but it has been known as a leader ' tn the Industry. Its invention of the coach type of car, and its sponsorship of the coach all during the period when it had met op position and even ridicule by mak ers who are now flocking to it, is one of the industry's greatest examples of leadership. "It must be remembered to be gin with that while Hudson-Essex conceived the coach idea, they were, not merely content to let someone else develop the idea. They have already built nd sold over 2IO.0QO cars of the coach type. As a result they have a background of experience behind them In building .. this type of closed car that" Is not remotely approached by any other manufac turer. They have achieved a volume of production that- no other closed-car builder ever at tained before, and with the result ant economy of overhead and all manufacturing costs." Nature adjusts things. Those who monkey with a mule's busi ness end seldom have' heads the mule can hurt. , Sfi -nil i S mil nw-Xr We now havo the most complete stock of Rebuilt jHariey-.

Sugar Fields HONOLULU, Mar. 7 -Negotiations for the use of army air planes to "bomb" the sugar cane fields of Hawaii with preventive dust fn the fight against the eye spot pest, are in progress between headquarters of the Hawaiian de partment of the army and i the Hawaiian Sugar Planters associa tion, and it is expected that the initial experiment probably will be made within a few months.' ; The work will be along the same lines as the method used in Texas and other states where air planes have been used in dusting cotton fields to combat the boil weevil. The estimated annual loss to plantations on Oahu through the effects of the fungus causing the eyespot disease in $100,000. England Imports Oddities From A!! Parts of World . LONDON,: Mar 7- Many queer cargoes -arrive in the ports of Great Britain during the -course of a year; but perhaps the queers est -was one from Alexico during December. This consisted of 13 tons of dried flies for use in the manufacture of paint.' Dried flies also tome from Brazil, 'but these are utilizied in the mixing of food foiv poultry and pheasants.. . (Manifests of cargoes carried In steamers often make strange read ing to anyone but the initiated, and the average man, seeing that a case of "walrus whiskers was carried In a. steamer would hardly imagine they were to be utilized for toothpicks : at t 'fashionable hotels. : Frog ' skiris 'are shipped from . India - for bookbinding pur poses; "TaSmanian -devils" often arrive,: and from - South f Africa recently came a case of "'diseases." These included cultures' I of germs .of- black'wafer t fever malarial fevers and other kinds of tropical ! diseases for the pur pose 'of -svientiffe investigation. Snails and frogs come into Lon-i don for use at oho. restaurants, and twice, each year a vessel from China - brings Chinese dried foods for the Chinese population of Eng land. Sea slug, sharks: fin, the nest of the seaswailow, and other strange luxuries are also imported in fairly large quantities. .

B. Beeson of this city a trip he made in 1921 to Idltarod, a former Alaskan gold camp, 600 miles. Antitoxin to fight a diphteria epidemic was carried, on - each Journey. ; : "One of, the most marvelous bits of skill I ever saw was exhibited between Cripple and Idltarod; 120 miles apart," safd Dr. Beeson. "One musher's team of half-wolves unbroken, ran away. For. 25 miles they, sped through timbered country while the driver clung to the handle bars of n'is sled, avoid ing an upset by quickly shifting his weight from runnertd runner. "One of the greatest dangers to drivers of fast dog teams In low temperatures Is to be IhVbwn front the runners. ;: A driver keeps on trying to balance from ' runner to runner 'until the cold' makes him so much he , cannot move. Then he may fall off and may be .miles, behind before an, upset stops the team. It is very easy to freeze to death then." " .
