'And after twenty-two years of daily use in good and bad weather and over all kinds of roads, I will put this wagon against any neu) wagon of another make that you can buy today." "Studebaker wagons are built of air-dried lumber and tested iron and steel. Even the paint and varnish are subjected to a laboratory test to insure wearing qualities." "No wagon made ! subjected to as many testa or is more carefully made than a Studebaker. You can buy them of Stude baker dealers everywhere." "Don't listen to trie dealer who wants to sell you cheap wagon, represented to bo 'just as good' as a Studebaker. Farm wagons, trucks, dump wagons and carts, delivery wagons, buggies, surreys, depot wagons and harness of all kinds of the same hirjh standard as the Studebaker vehicles. See our Dealer or writ o.

THE SPLIT-LOG DRAG. '(Funeral Director i( and Embalmer CALLS ANSWERED DAY OR NIGHT. M. L. CASE I UHB 51.5(1 The Western Forestry and Conser vation Assoeation has recently issued a bulletin predicting a dry summer and urging the utmost care and vigil anre in preventing forest fires. Al readv about 800 men are in the field patrolling the ariou3 public and pri vate timber holdings and mora men will be employed from time to time as 1 1 1 e need occurs. It is estimated that neary $1,500,000 will ba expended in oatrolline the forests of Oregon, Washington, Montana and Idaho. The result of a college training is shown in the egg production of a hen owned by the Oregon Agricultural College which laid 99 eggs in 100 con secutive days. This animated egg machine is three-quarters White Leg horn and one-quarter Barred Plymouth Rock an is ad descendent of a long line of heavy layers bred at the col lege experiment station. It is expec ted that the results of the seasons ex periments in breeding poultry for egg production will be embodied in a re port which will be of much value to practical poultrymen. That the dairy business in Oregon is growing at a tremendous rate and that in value it far exceeds the state's next largest crop livestock is the statement of State Dairy and Food Commissioner Mickel in a recentllv issued bulletin. The value of dairy prouductis for 191 2was $19,oO0,0C0 while that of livestock was 112,000, 000. Prospects for a material increase this yaar are good. According to a statement by State Game Warden Finley, about 8,000 Chinese pheasants will be liberated this season in the various counties of the state about 1500 of them going to Eastern Oregon. In addition to this increase of the game resources of Ore gon, about 12,000,000 young trout will be liberated by the state fish hatcher ies.

Every farmer should own one and line It on the roads liix prop erty faces. Constant attention in needed to keep roads in condition. Traffic and! the weather are busy destroylngarid uan must constantly rebuild. Tlie crown of the road ninsfc be kept rounded, the surface kept smooth. ruts and holes filled, drains and cul verts in repair. The "King;" drag has proved the most effective and economical aid 1 n this work and Its use is enforced in many states. Iowa passed a com pulsory drag: law which raises a one mill levy of 1,700,000, which can be used for no other purpose thaudrag- u-niji" not the steel arag:, wliieli is a failure, but the split-log; drag;. Koad engineers say that every lo cality should use the drag; freely. There should be a drag- for every three miles of road. Engineer Rob erts advises as follows: Methods, (1) Smooththesurface. Don't stir. Use a light drag- with a blade three and one half feet long; this will stir all that should lie stirred. (2) .Soil in its original condition contains a great deal of humus. This should be disposed of. The best way to accomplish this is to draga slight crown into the road at a season when beating rains will force the heavier mineral matter down, which in turn, forces the lighter vegetable matter up. This action is very ma terially increased by the cedar drag. Cedar literally "pulls" the vegetable matter to the surface at a rate at tained by no other material. When the crown has become reasonably firm and smooth, a considerable amount of the finer vegetable matter will have been washed away. Then, aud not until then if a wider road is desired, plow one shallow furrow on each side just outside the dragged portion, throwing toward the cen ter. Spread this careful ly over the surface with the drag, while the earth is moist. Allow this to Itecome thoroughly washed and packed foe fore repenting. With each of these plowings the road will have been widened two feet. When Hie proper width lias been reached, stop plow ing, but keep on dragging after each soaking rain. U!l If the earth road has received proper attention during the time when attention Is most needed, the wet season, it will certainly lie good when dry. The time to cultivate a road and a field is entirely different. Don't put (Hi a dust mulch either with a drag or a grader." Instructions for making the split- log drag are furnished by the United States Agricultural bulletin No Stil which can be obtained upon applica tion. A two-slab log or plank dra with liberal "set back" is the most satisfactory It should be so light that one man can easily lift it Squared timbers should Ih avoided. Soft wood, preferably cedar, is more satisfactory than hard wood, liut little earth is moved at a time, and that with the "sliding stroke." Mr. Roberts describes how the l'jv fie Highway in Skagit county, Washington, containing every condi tion of road to be found in the North west, was improved and maintained by the use of the drag. The necessity of regravellmg was eliminated, sav- ng about $7000. The work proved that the a verage road could be much improved and maintained in good condition for $S per mile per year. The drag not only prepares highways to receive permanent surface, but re duces the cost of repair ami mainte nance.
