EVERY day situations come up in
which you need an International
Harvester oil tractor Mogul or Titan. An
International tractor on your farm will pull
your field machines, haul your products and
supplies, furnish the power for thresher,
husker and shredder, feed grinder, or serve
you in other duties.
Simple mechanism, protection of parts,
ease and convenience of operation, economy
of fuel, complete equipment make Inter
national tractors last and satisfy vou longest.
Study their records, ask their owners about them,
and write us for catalogues. I H C tractor sizes rango

USE A JONES WEEDER
Built in Morrow County
(Patented Dec. 16, 1913)
There lias been a great need for a machine to cultivate pum
niorfallow that would do it thoroughly with the least possible loss of
moisture and "do it quick."
We claim the Jones Wecder will do all of this and more. It
can be used in as many sections as wanted, like a harrow. Four
sections cut 18 feet 8 inches and pull no heavier than four sections
of steel harrow.
The blades having a slope of CO0 it will not choke under nor
mal conditions.
I am now putting up 100 sections. Parties wanting this
machine should send in their orders at once.

The defeat of all candidates with
fads and fancies in the recent prl
maries indicates that Oregon is
coming to a more sane condition.
With the public mind so engrossed
with the Mexican matter, we may get
a brief respite from the deluge of re
forms which, like the avalenche,
seems to gather volume in its de
scent. That there are evils and in
justices galore is not to be denied;
but we really are not half as bad at
heart, or even in performance, as we
have allowed ourselves to be painted
to our own eyes. We have had our
shortcomings dinned in our ears so
long and constantly that we have
come to think of ourselves as much
worse than we really are. The re
form era found its opportunity when
muck raking no longer offered either
fame or money to frenzied writers.
Persons who lacked the ordinary
abilities to command public attention
any other way found their oppor
tunity, and often a job, in so-called
reform movements, and were able to
gratify personal vanity by getting
their names in newspaper headlines.
With no broad knowledge of the sub
ject, and without a careful study of
the problem which serves them, they
pose as experts. Far be it from this
magazine to belittle the honest re
form of any genuine evil; but while
apparently nothing is good enough
for the professional reformer, is it
not wisdom to give equal prominence
to our good men and good accom
plishments?
Is it not a fact that never in the
history of the United States were
there so many honest men, honest
businesses, and honestly made pro-
ucts as today? Was there ever, in
any land, since the dry land appeared
out of the wilderness of waters, as
many or as large benefactions of
every kind for suffering humanity as
today? Yet how few columns are
devoted to the constructive story of
the good things being done, and how
many pages of destructive articles!
The Mexican trouble will not be
without its compensation if it only
affords some relief- from the ob
session of reforms, and even in i
measure reforms the reformer.

Primaries Favorable to Industries
And Business.
A review of the state primary el
ection from an industrial and busi
ness standpoint shows that a great
step in advance has been taken tow
ard sane policies favorable to development.
Conservative candidates have been
nominated by the Republicans, Dem
ocrats, and Progressives, although
the latter party has become almost
a negligible quantity in Oregon pol
itics.
Every candidate who stood for a
radical or freak policy in the race
for governor has been snowed under
and one of the nominees has come
out for a program of industrial up
building.
Those advocating the $1500 tax
exemption and the taxation of es
tates to support the unemployed on
good wages were badly left.
Many of the candidates for govern
or initiated as part of their cam
paign, bills containing radical prop
ositions and some of these will have
to go on the ballot in November.
Some candidates won places on the
party tickets because they were in
office and had the advantage of run
ning against a divided field and are
minority nomineps.
At the November election there
will be further scrutiny of the var
ious party candidates and a further
weeding out from the standpoint of
a return to good business conditions.
The result of the primary is to
show that the people of Oregon are
tired of crucifying industries and en
terprises at the bid of political adventurers.
A state with raw materials and un
developed wealth and with abun
dance of efficient laboring men and
women only needs fair laws to in
vite capital and attain the highest
prosperity.
Unjust taxation laws and policies
of too much interfering with employ
ment of labor and capital have done
much to create apathy and bad bus
iness conditions in this state.
The tide has turned and Oregon
again invites investments upon fair
and equal terms, under which labor
will be well employed and all kinds
of business will revive.
