OIL FILTER AIDS MOTORIST TO SAVE How the motorist can save on oil expense and repair bills through proper attention to the oil filter of his car Is stressed by Douglae McKay of the local Chev rolet organization, on the strength of technical information received from O. E. Hunt, chief engineer of the Chevrolet Motor company. The announcement follows ex periments conducted by research ngineers of the AC Spark Plug ompany. maker or cnevroiet on filters, showing that a full pint of abrasive matter accumulated In the filter after every 10,000 miles of driving. This residue was found in Doesess such high abrasive qualities that It could have been used effectively for sharpening II knives or grinding valves. "It this foreign material had not been trapped In the oil filter. we are Informed by Chief Engineer Hunt," said Mr. McKay, "It would have done grave damage to cylin ders, pistons and other internal working parts of the engine. Ex cessive repair bills might have been the ultimate result." "The AC oil filter, with which all Chevrolets are equipped, re moves these impurities and allows only clean oil to reach the engine. This meane prolonged life for the motor and fewer oil changes." "The oil filter is only one of many ieatures coninouung iu Chevrolet's long life and economy f operation." . where he tried farming, store keeping, and dealing .In livestock. He proudly announces that he has hired out to work for others only one month In bis life, for which be received $25, and has never in herited a dollar nor received a dol lar that be did not earn by his own labor and enterprise. Credit to Field The credit for such a record of success lnlthe short space of seTenarg jq further. years is due mainly to me nara and faithful work of Mr. Scbeelar himself, coupled with the services of his loyal associates Bat it is flue partly to thia splendid field to Salem and the Willamette valley, where there is constant growth and progress In all legitimate lines, and where the reward of merit Is not grudged or SASTA FE.

Plant No. 3 will be at Tillamook, No. 4 at McMinnville and No. 6 at ' Corvallis. " - Will Sell Stock Suitable locations for some of these have already been secured in these towns.
