In wm r- - --- Compare Our Fixtures with Others There's a big difference in the "fixtures" you get at the prices asked for different sOos. Compare fixtures when you buy a silo. It is the fix-1 lures that make a silo. Durability, security and stability are determined by the anchorage, the size, quality and number of cables, hoops, lugs and staples. Convenience and ease of getting at your silage for use are determined by the door and ladder construction. Mn sOos are priced without hinged doors or ladders. Ia other .words, you pay as "extras" for necessary con veniences without which your silo is incomplete. Notwithstanding our lower price, we include more and better fixtures than many who ask more for their silos. In some cases we supply more of a given item than others, as in anchorage cable. In others, our fixtures are stronger or better in whatever vital point deter mines their value. Keep this ad and check our fixtures as described above, with those offered by other silos. Don't pay more and get less, or buyjulf a silo when you can get t complete one. While no one wants to see the railroads operated as they were be fore the war with the grotesque features which sprung up from the effort to enforce competition, most people are agreed that the time Is about ripe for a return to private lirection. Given a national super vision which will guarantee a square deal to all sections the railroads may now be allowed to enter a new era of development and usefulness. The special peace edition of the Salem Statesman which was issued within the past week is typographi cally a very creditable production and one which will be cherished by the many who appear therein, their relatives and friends. It is odd however to see a so-called "Roll of Honor" of the dead in the war which gives the name of only one of the five soldiers who joined the army from Monmouth and made the supreme sacrifice in the great struggle. The name of Roy John son appears, but Joe Clark, Theo dore Holloway, John Dalrymple and Archie Davis are not mentioned. Willamette Valley Lumber Co. pi L. W. Waller, Local Manager. Monmouth, Or UDDDDDODflDDDDDDDll Speaking of the complaint that the designation of the route of the highway from Holmes gap to the Benton county line was not spe cifically described on the election call, the Polk County Observer says, "the county court has no say regarding the route of the West Side Highway, that devolving on the highway commission, hence the latitude given that body in designa ting the route for the special elec tion." This is what might be called a specious explanation. But the state commission had already an. nounced the route. More to the point, the agreement in Dallas was based cn their decision. For aside from what the state gave us Mon mouth got very little consideration at the hands of the convention.
