"BM It is a matter of record in fifteen of the prirv cipal cities that Paige Used Cats bring a higher price proportionate to first cost than any other American automobiles. And here, after all is said and done, is the final test of quality. A Used Car has been "through the mill" It motor and all of its working parts ' have been subjected to constant strain. Its "finish" has been knocked off if it will come off at all Its gears, its rear axle and its transmission have endured the punishment of daytn and day-out pounding All of its weak . ness is plainly evident and likewise its strength. The Used Car either stands before you a broken down, dispirited "has-been," or a strong, robust champion of many battles ready and eager for all the service that man can give it. That, we repeat, is the final test of quality. In this test the Paige stands supreme. After fifteen- twenty-five thirty-five thousand miles of service, there is still tec M mi It enough goodnets left in a Paige to command a record price in used car , markets. i Frankly now, is there anything that we could tell you about our product that would be more convincing? Could you have any better guarantee that a Paige is all that we claim it to be all that you. could possibly expect it to be? As to the selection of a model, this is merely a matter of your own personal require ments. C . ' In our line there are two seven-passenger cars, a five-passenger car. two roadsters and a complete line of enclosed cars. You alone can make a choice, but please re member that you cannot make a mistake. For all thes models are Paiges blood' brothers of the same strain That is the really important thinj. But don't lose any time. Come in and im spect the Paige line today. Let us give you the kind of demonstration that will definitely settle your automobile problem, and place your order while you can se cure an eaily. delivery.

C, Corvallls, Ore.. May 9. There are from 200 to 300 thousand acres of summer fallow In Eastern Oregon which should produce some kind of cultivated crops this year and since.' it is too late to plant field peas, the meat suitable crops left are beans, corn arid the small grains in the cul tivated : rowB. Corn is particularly recommended Inasmuch as it will aare the feeding of grain to livestock. Prof. Hyslop, Farm Crops author ity at O. A.C., asserts that at an alti tude of 2,500 feet, and where there is reasonably good rainfall, beans may be successfully produced on summer fallow that has been plowed early. Beans may be seeded with a grain drill in rows 4 to 6 feet apart, and from 4 to 6 or 8 inches apart in the rows. Early maturing bush varieties are desirable. Lady Washingtons, Mexican Tree beans, and Red Mexi cans are all very successful. 10 to IS pounds of seed per acre is sufficient and a yield of not less than 400 to 800 pounds per acre may be expected, and Indications are that prices tor beans will be good next fall. This small amount, if given good cultiva tion, will leave the summer tallow in practically as good condition tor the succeeding wheat crop as if it had been cultivated clean all summer, and most of the work will be done before the harvest season. Bean handling and harvesting equipment Is not expensive. The summer fallow , lands of Oregon should- raise a million bushels of beans this year and we will need all of them this fall. Plant as soon as possible after danger of frost is over. Early corn planted in wide rows is a good crop for hog, cattle, horse or sheep feed. Eastern Oregon can put enough dry shelled corn on the market to ship in carload lots. Wheat or barley may be planted in rows 4 to S feet apart on summer follow and, with slight cultivation to keep the weeds down, will produce good crops. Row crops should be planted so the rows run across the direction of the prevailing winds. Utilize all the summer fallow in beans, corn, root crops or the small grains in rows. ii Material For Spring Repairing Johnson & Johnson DOORS WINDOWS MOULDING Lumber for fixing that leaning fence, that loosened walk; in fact just what you need to make the old place look the way it should. . PHONE Office 192; Residence 94 II H. C. GITHENS Lumber Yard 1 All' Oregon is now organized for vigorous prosecution of the Uni ted States and Oregon cooperative food preparedness campaign. - When the emergency call came the nucleus of effective organization already ex isted in the county agricultural agent policy and the club work of the boys and girls as conducted by the Exten sion Service of the Agricultural Col lege. Fifteen counties were main taining county agents, and the coun ty-agent plan has been extended as districts until almost the entire State is included. This county is a mem ber of the Hood River, Sherman, Mor row and Gilliam group, with head quarters at The Dalles. The leader ot this group is J. W. Brewer, secretary of The Dalles chamber of commerce, former secre tary of the Oregon development League, and at one time a farmer of Umatilla county. He is in close touch with .agricultural and market conditions in the district and knows the production capacity of the farms within its boundaries. It is expected that this territory will produce a big share of the two great staples of wheat and wool, as well as various other products. AH of these counties, together with the other district and county-agent counties, are now integral parts of ttie stata-wide, nation-wide organiza tion to Increase the food supply re quisite to a successful campaign by the navy and army. Food, and still more food, Is the plea of President Wilson, transmitted to the people of Oregon through Secretary Houston President Kerr and Director Hetzel This mighty mobilization for supreme effort is the answer that Oregon makes, with Us magnificent resour ces and intrepid spirit. The club work carried cooperative ly by the Government, the State Col lege and the State Department of Ed ucation, is the basis of organization for the work of the boys and girls. Tills work Is directed by H. C. Sey mour, state club leader, and several assistants In charge ot special phases of the work or acting as local leaders in different parts of the State. In the present emergency it was found nec essary to extend the local leader plan to Include every county of the Stale, which Is now under organization into districts of one or more counties each. with a local leader in charge. One of the first districts thus organized is comprised of three leading southern Oregon counties with J. Percy Wells, of Jackson county, in charge of the city garden, canning and food econ omy activities. This work alms first of all to enlist and direct the work of alt the children of the towns in grow ing vegetables of high food value and good canning and drying qualities and later instruct the girls in canning the surplus for future use.
