People who Own I.and Hut Reside In Town Are Classed As Residing I'uon Farm Property; Water ltlghts Are Recognized. SALEM, Ore., Jan. 13. Agreement was reached Thursday by C, K. Spence, master of the state grange, and other representatives of the or ganizations which Initiated the rural credits amendment to the con stitution, and the state land board, on the provisions of a bill to provide the machinery for the general oper. ation of the rural 'credits amend ment. Attorney General Brown was requested to draft the bill. One of the features of the bill will be a recognition of adjudicated water rights as part of the value of the land upon which loans may be sought under the act. This will be an aid to farmers .in irrigation districts, as the amendment provides loans shall not exceed 50 per cent of the value of the land. It was also agreed that the measure, shall define "persons residing on tho land" to include persons who own the land and operate It under their direc tion, although they may be renidm temporarily elsewhere. This is done to meet conditions where families remove from the farm to town for the sake of school advantages but re tain the farm as their home." The bill will define the procedure for issuing bonds, and will require the handling of the rural credits fund with the same organization es tablished by the state land board for loaning the , 000.000 In the common school fund. s i s Vra Ui fmw BY USING "Peacock Coal" BEST BY EVERY TEST , Coal is not Coal NOW IS THE TIME TO TEST IT OUT AND CON VINCE YOURSELF OF ITS SUPERIOR QUALITIES.

A. V. swim ming title recently In St. Louis, but In so doing he conclusively defeated one of the greatest watermen the world bus ever produced, Duke K- smtom six Will Positively Out-Perform Any Car in Its Price Class Nearly everybody knows the tremendous sue cess the .Saxon "Six" has won. Nearly everybody knows that the Saxon "Rlx" Is the finest car for less than 11,000. Owners, of course, were first to find out this superiority. But it did not long remain merely a matter of owner knowledge. For from them, thousands of them all over this country, came reports of Its speed, its smoothness, its power, Its acceleration. They spoke freely of Its extraordinary gaso line economy, Its unusual freedom from need of repair service, Its superlative strength and stability. And these reports coming day after .day, growing constantly, have gradually molded and welded these Individual beliefs Into a com mon public belief that Saxon "lx" is the best car In Its class. 81 nee then as If to substantiate and confirm the superiority shown in private use, Haxon "Klx" has shown its superiority in public competition. It won a noted hill clmb In the Kast against many higher priced cars. It defeated by fifteen minutes over a 600 mile course a train which Is the pride of the West i . It thrice vanquished costlier rivals In speed, acceleration, and In hill climbing at the San Diego Exposition. It exhibited acceleration from standing start to 46 miles per hour In 23. seconds. 206 stock model Saxon "Slues" traveled 1,. 800 miles and averaged 2.1. S miles per gallon of gasoline. Kach car ran 300 miles without stopping the motor. 3H stock model Haxon "Sixes" raced In re lays from coast to coast In 8 days, 18 hours and 10 minutes. This Is the record automo bile time between New York nnd San Fran cisco, Bo when you come to seek the reason for the overwhelming success of Saxon "Six" you will find it, more likely, In this matchless ability to perform. It will be sold In Pendleton by an established company, with dependable garage service be hind It. ' Don't buy a car until you see the new 1917 Saxon "Six," study It, ride In It, drive It. See the many added refinements in this year's car and the wonderful specifications for the price. ROUND-UP CITY AUTO CO. 812 CARDLN STRUT mm on Hazel street biivnmokn of Honolulu. i
