the enclosed type. A new policy
has been adopted with Fordson
parts. It is now possible for every

day from Portland where he spent

Buyers' week in Portland is an an

him for several years. Mr. Quartier
was just a little bit late in arriving
at the station when he was ready to
return and missed the train, and was
subjected to no little inconvenience
as a result. He took an auto bus,
suffering the inconvenience of being
packed in the car like a sardine, and
arrived in Salem just a few minutes
too late to connect with the auto
stage for Independence. He then
decided to come by the Oregon Elec
tric to Orville, and when he got to
the river here, the ferry was tem

was poled across in a skiff.

Some Reasons Why
International 8-1 6 Tractors
Please Their Owners:
The 8-16 is well adapted for hard work' such
as plowing, and will do continuous work for
long days, hot days, and day and night during
the rush season.
It has a speed f or'every job, and is one of the
most serviceable belt machines made.
. The patent kerosene carbureter makes it
, possible to use low priced fuels. The saving in
cost as compared with a gasoline tractor is so
great that it will practically pay for itself in
about 3000 hours of work. This fact alone
should not escape the attention of any one who
is going to purchase a tractor. Place your or
der while the supply is available.
