"TUM-A-LUM WALLBOARD" can be put on by anyone. It is nailed directly to the 2x4 stud ding of the walls, and many beautiful designs are produced. The cracks between the sheets of the wallboard are covered with a small strip of lumber painted like the rest of the house trim. "TUM-A-LUM WALLBOARD" can be tinted with a cold water tint by anyone. Many beautiful stencil paterns can be worked in the border. "TUM-A-LUM WALLBOARD" is fine for remodeling without anv muss. Tum-A-Lum Lumber Co. 'IW Peter Kilburg, Mgr.

Detroit, effective Aug 2, 1915; Ford Runabout . . . $390. Ford Touring Car , , . 44o. No speedometer included jn this yer's equipment, otherwise cars fully equipped, There can be no assurance given against an advance in these prices at any time. We guarantee however, that there will be no reduction in these prices prior to August 1, 1916. Profit-Sharing With Retail Buyers On August 1, 1914 we made the announcement that 11 w could make and sell at retail 300,000 Ford cars between August 1, 1914 and August 1, 1915 we would share profits with the retail purchasers, to the extent of from $40 to $G0 on each car. We have sold over 300,000 Ford cars in the time specified, and profit-sharing checks of $50 each will be distributed as rapidly as possible after August 15, 115. Retail purchasers who have not yet mailed us their profit-sharing coupons, properly endorsed 6hould do so without delay. Our plan to profit-share with retail purchasers of Ford cars during 1914-e5 has been most successful. We thor oughly believe in it, but realizing the uncertainty of con ditions generally makes it advisable to defer any an nouncement of future profit-sharing until a later date. We are, however, confident of our inability to reduce costs for several months, and therefore can offer no profit sharing for cars deliverad during August, September and October, 1915. ,'ford tA Exhibits Wanted ,The , following exerptft Jp , a circular .letter sent out ;by the Portland Chamber of Commerce may be .of , interest to Southern Wasco people (iwho contemplate contributing, to.. the Exposition and thus let the world see that. our pro ducts are worthy of notice: Imperative need exists Mt the Oregon j-Buikliijg in San Francisco for exhibits of fresh fruits, -vegetables, .grains and grasses.
