V 1 "Look to, the companr behind N T'yy 2,1.. ,.. liiliPi ' " '
Look to the companr 'behind
the car you buy. 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. ,

Hawaii Calls on Airplane
To Sanitate. 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. .
TIREJ SHOP WILL OrEX
Work is under-1 way remodeling

the Used Car Corner. Walter Zo

soon under the name of the Zozel
Tire Shop. Improvements are be-1

have a Hrst class tire shop.
Nome Epidemic Recalls ::: t
t Former DogiTeam Exploit
' . y-
- ANCHORAGE laslU.-ar.7
Establishment of a speed record
for a relay run of 650 miles by
dog team from .Nenana : on," the
Alaska Railroad , to Nome- on the
Bering Sea, 'recalled to Dr. J. 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." " .

Makers of Airplane Flivvers
Promise to Popularize. Flying
LONDON, Mar. 7 Another ter
ror will shortly be added to the
quiet-loving old ladies in the distant-
suburbs and rural England.
This is a baby airplane fitted With
a 60 horse-power engine which
the makers claim can be stored
in a garage at the bottom of a
garden, has folding wings, con
tains a self-starter and " can take
off from a comparatively confined
space. ' ;. -.:
The object of the makers is to
bring flying within the reach of a
larger number of the public and
eventually make the airplane as
popular as the motor car.
