Oregon-Owned

f h e examiner for the insurance
department completed its
periodi
cal examination o f the Oregon Au
tomobile
Insurance
company
on
January 24. In his report he states
that the company is to be commend
ed for valuing of its securities as
of December 31, 1932 instead of
taking the valuations adopted by
the National Convention of Insur
ance Commissioners, reflecting val
ues as o f June 30, 1931. No dila
tory tactics, said the examiner, are
used in handling claims. In excess
of 55 per cent of its bond values
are U. S. government bonds and
the remainder are of a high grade
and good marketability. All of its
mortgages and a substantial part
of its investments are in the state
o f Oregon. A fter paying all just
and legal claims and setting aside
adequate reserves, it shows a sur
plus to policyholders of $198,408.»
51. In conclusion the report states
that as a result of the examination
it appears that the Oregon Auto
mobile Insurance company is in ex
cellent financial condition. It has
paid out in claims to its policy
holders the sum of
$943,496.00.
Based on the volume of business
transacted, capital and surplus, the
company is in a position to render
service of a high order to its policy-
holders .

Zenner Seed
The manager of Zenner’s Seed
Co. at 510 Belmont Street in Port
land haa a reputation far and wide
as a business man of wide ex
perience and straightforward meth
ods and it is not surprising that
the volume of business is ever in
creasing.
If you select your seeds from the
Zenner's Seed Store you will be as
sured the highest quality seeds on
the market. Their stock includes
only merchandise as have been test
ed and have proven germination
per centage. They stand behind the
stock and give their years of ex
perience and a large list of satis
fied customers as their best refer
ence.
The stock not only includes field
seeds of all kinds; it also includes
garden seeds, flower seeds and a
general line of supplies for keeping
up lawns and gardens.
The manager, Mr. A. Zenner, has
made a scientific study of the needs
of the territory in seeds and se
cures special brands that suit the
trade of the state. Every farmer
should call around here occasionally
and see how production can be in
creased.
T^ieir brand is by far the better
mixture of grasses offered for the
purpose o f quickly producing a per
manent lawn. It is prepared from
a special formula, and is a careful
blending of varieties adapted to
this climate. It is also highly re
commended to be sown over our
country lawns, as it gives you a
nice velvety lawn during the year
and rebuilds your old lawn.
Ttie matter of price has also re
ceived attention here, for it has be
come a well established fact not
only in the city hut in the surround
ing country that the quotations of
this store are always as low as
good business dictates. They per
mit no one to offer greater values
just as they permit no one to o f
fer higher quality, and this happy
combination has resulted in a large
1 and ever increasing custom.
Mr. Zertn^r, proprietor o i this
store, in«rites the public to
make
this place their headquarters when
in town and he will be glad to ren
der any little service for your con
venience.
