My auto, 'tts of thee, short road to
oovertv of the I chant. I blew a
j pile of dough on you three years ago;
now you refuse to go or wont
! or can't. ' Through town and
j countryside you were my joy and
1 pride, a happy day. I loved thy
I gaudy hue, the nice white tires, new;
fbut your down and out for true, in
every way. To thee, old raiueDox,
came many bumps and knocks; for
thee I grieve. Badly thy top is torn.;
frayed are thy seats and worn; the
whoopmg cough affects thy horn, I
do believe. Thy perfume swells the
breeze, while good folks choke and
wheeze, as we pass by. I paid for
thee a price, 'twould buy a mansion
twice; now everybody's yelling "ice"
I wonder why. Thy motor has the
grip, thy spark plug has the pip, and
woe is thine. I, too. have suffered
chills, fatigue and kindred ills, en
deavoring to pay my bills, since
thou were mine. Gone is my bank
roll now, no more 'twould choke a
cow, as once before. Yet, if I had
the mon", so help me, John amen,
I'd buy a car again and speed some
more. The Car.

....What if this we now hear splashing
to the south of us? The Columbia
River highway has been cullt through
the north end of the county for sev
eral years. We heard all sorts of ar
guments at the time and now they are
trying to tell us the same story about
the Umatilla Wallula cut-off. Well,
It is going to be built boys and you
cannot hurt anybody but yourselves
by tlhe arguments you put up. The
main highways will be considered
from the standpoint of their general
usefulness and the more you tell the
highway commissioners or the feder
al agent that it will divert business
away from any individual or locality
which is not tto the general interests
of the state or the Pacific northwest,
you simply help the cause and hasten
the construction of this cut-off. We
may be nothing butt rocks and sand,
but we are here on the job and we
get to our point by always working
for the general good of the state. Why
not put. up your signs at all cross
roads and say, this way tb the great
wheat belt, this way to the. great
fruit district, etc.? Those who want
to come and go your way, will be
there tlo see you. You cannot drive
them your way and make them drink
with you. Take our methods which
are proven effective. Invite your
guests and make It so nice and con
venient for them that tliey will stViy
with you always.

panied by our county agent C. C.
Calkinsi Mr. Rrhulmerlck, who has
had considerable experience In, farm
bureau organization and w an oia
dairyman and farmer, with experi
ence in diversftiod farming, gave us
an interesting talk outlining what
the Farm bureau has done and Is do
ing In the way of marketing, buying
and solving the various problems of
the farmer today. The organization
Is gaining membership rapidly in each
state in the union and Is being rocog
nlzedby some of the leading wholesal
ers and manufacturers as the coming
organization they must line up with
and sell direct In Its members at
V" wholesale prices, culling out their
agents and oilier middlemen. The
Moline Plow and Implement Co. has
made contracts with the various sialic
ami county bureaus anil are today Hel
ling their machinery at wholesale
prices direct to the farmer. The
Kelly Springfield Tire Co. has also ar
ranged to allow lhe farm but'1 au
members a discount of about 20 per
cent, on their tires md tubes, One
or two other companies are now figur
ing on closing similar agreements
and I he slate and national farm bur
eau heads are working to accomplish
much more in this line and as the
membership Increases, this fact will
become more established. Mr. Schul
merlck outlined how corrupt fundH
have been created by other organiza
tions opposed to the farmers and
have fought them at, every turn but
the fanners were gradually becom
ing aware of their various schemes
and are now falling In with their
plans to put! them out of business. The
plan of education carried out by the
farm bureau will check these scheme"
in the future entirely. Mr. Schul
meilck also talked at sonic length
on the dairy cow iiiesfiop. II"

I uy iows that do not produce 200
