'Jesse Avres died April 20th of
measles and pneumonia at. the
the home of his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. J. W. Ayres-, after an illness
of only a few days, during whiclv
time he was a great sufferer. All'
possible was done by loved ones
and the brother 1.0. F., of which
he recently became a member,
to relieve him, but to no avail.
He contracted measles while at
Portland, taking Civil Service
examination.. He and brother
Harry attended school at Tygh
Valley during the winter, where
they gained highest esteem of
Tygh, Valley people, many of
whom attended the funeral. He
was about 22 years of age.
Knowing that the end wasnear,
he conversed with the loved ones
telling them of the beauties of
the place beyond, describing what
he had seen in part, told them
that this life was not all, and
commanded them not to grieve
for all was well with him. He
was laid at rest in Four Corners
cemetery, the services being con
ducted by the I. 0. 0. F. and
Rebekahs. The floral pieces were
beautiful, cut flowers from The
Dalles as well as many others;
the grave was a mound of trib
utes of bloom. He leaves to

The Proper Place to Store Your Grain is on the Fariii
And if you are thinking of an' elevator at the track, we are now designing and building many
track elevators of from 15,000 bushels up to 100,000 bushels, and can furnish complete plans and
guaranteed costs.
Rapidly fluctuating prices on material make it impossible to protect above prices for any length
of time.
We hear a lot of talk now about concrete elevators-Let's see if there is any economy in concrete
elevators-Take a 60.000 bushel track elevator costing in timber construction hot to exceed $7,000 00
fully equipped with most expensive machinery and costing in concrete at least $20,000.$- the In
creased investment at 8 per cent would be $1040.00 yearly.
Say you carfiCcf no insurance on the concrete elevator, and the Insurance on the timber elevator
fully insured at $1.75 per $100 would be 60,000 bushels $0,70 insured' for 6 months-$367.00. $7000.00
building for 12 months at $1.75, or $122.00, or a total of $189.00 yearly insurance on timber against
$1040.00 yearly interest on increased investment of concrete 4 saving of about 55'). 66 yearly by
having a timber elevator and you are fully lnSiire'd.
There is only a limited amount of elevator ilrhber in this country it's being used up now.
Every day sees another community adopt the bulk system of handling grain.
