C. A, Barrett of this oily, was pres ent and offered a tentative proposition to bond tbe ooauly for ptaotioallj 1400,000 tot permaueut road improve ment. Mr, Barrett took the stand that all parts of tha ooouty needed toad improvement, aud proposed that tbe movement be incorporated only on tbat basia and no other, Bis idea Is that a (100,000 twenty year aeiial bond Inane, beating six cm Oent interest, $100,000 to be lasoed eaob year for four years, will serve to complete niaoadem toads to couueut op tbe prluoipal parts of the uouuty with tbe uiatket oentera and tba Col ombia ltiver fiom Pendleton to Uma tilla via Kohn, bUaulield aud Her id is ton less IlermiNton to Umatilla, uow being coutrooted, leaving 8 It miles es timated at !)500 par mile, totalling $130,000; Pendleton to Pilot Book, 16 miles at $i!000 per mile, 1 ri.OOO ; Pen dletou to Ueiman Ball, IS miles nil finished dirt road at $1000 per mile, if 1 C. t.

WHY BUY THE s r INITED STATE CREAM SEPARATOR The Interlocking Sectional Type differs vastly from the "disc" or uny other separator . construction. It is the, modern product of new and better ideas, and is manufac tured under the latest cream separator patents . Antiquated, abandoned principles of con struction have no place in its makeup. The Interlocking U.S. is the perfected product of over twenty-five years experience in building cream separators. i It takes years of experience to develop a Cream Separator of highest effiicency. A large number in our factory have this experience, having made a life study of the U. S. It is made in the United States. You can get repairs if needed. It is safe for women and children. . All the gears are completely enclosed. When buying the U. S. you get a separator more improved and up-to-date than " others, for example: The U. S. was the first to use the oil-splash system. The U. S. oils' all the gears i Imitators oil only part of the gears. . The U. S. is the first to have a Mechanical Washer. Others are spending large sums to invent one equally effective. The U. S. is the first to have a non-rusting bowl chamber liner. We predict others will copy it in years to come. The patented U. S. Interlocking Skimming device has proved a better skimmer than "disc" bowls. It would be imitated if not patented. r . . The U. S, adjustable neck-bearing controls the running of the bowl. Others would use it if they could, but patents prevent. The gears revolve on the shafts and in the middle between bearings. Get a mechanic's opinion.on this point. The U. S. skims Nature's way, cream at the top, milk at the bottom. As yet we've never heard of anyone who has improved on Nature. Have you? When a better Cream Separator is made, it will be a U.S. Come in Look the U. S. over. EDWARD TUCKER, Weston, Oregon Your Barn Should 1. Be ventilated properly, 2.
