WILL YOUR PRESENT CAR
MATCH THE SUPER-SIX?
Can You Rely Upon It To Serve
You through The Times Just Ahead?
Now is the time when you should arrange your mo
tor car needs for the future.
It may shortly be impossible to get a good new car.
You have seen in the newspapers how it is proposed
to curtail productions to a fraction of the present output.
Even now the output of every factory is much lower than
had been scheduled.
But there has been no such fallingoff in demand.
Present needs call for more and better cars than can
be furnished.
Motor cars must do the work that the badly pressed
railroads cannot do.
Good cars only can be relied upon. With outputs
curtailed and a scarcity of mechanics to keep less depen
dable cars in good' order, it is important that you plan for
your future needs now.
Get a Super-Six while you can.
We can take care of today's wants. The revised
schedule, much less than we had expected, makes future
supply uncertain.
The known reliability of the Super-Six makes it the
first choice of thousands of buyers.
If all who plan buying Hudsons should realize the
present situation, all the cars the factory can build in the
next year would undoubtedly be spoken for within a few
days.
Some are going to be disappointed because they
won't be able to get deliveries when they want them.
Better look over your present car closely and deter
mine if it can be relied upon with the outlook as it now is.

Food Administration Asks Aid of j
Every American In Gigantio
Task of Feeding Millions.
It Is the food problem over there
that makes a food problem over here.
If we wished to be supremely seltish
and supremely shortsighted we could
go on eating ns imieh us we like und
whatever we like, without much dilli-
culty or Interruption at least, until
the Germans camel
But we are not doing things in that
seltish and sulcldnl way. We are try
ing to make a great common pool of
nil of our food, and all of the food of .
the allies, and all of the food we can
get from South American and other !
neutrals, and dividing it up fairly
itnong America, England, France, Bel- ,
tflwn anil Italy.
This does not mean .hnt all of the
xople in the great pool are going to !
huve the same ration, but means that I
we nre trying to arrange to have
enough for everybody, so thai the sol-
liers our soldiers and. their soldiers-
will be well feil, as they have to be
lo hY'lit hard and continuously, tind
hill the munitions workers itnil ilia
workers in nil the other necessary In-!
lustries. and the men and women at I
Imme will all have enough to keep
ii live and xyell. It Is absolutely neces
sary to do this if the war Is to be won,
nml we are going to do it, but it means i
planning, working, arranging co-oper-
ting, being careful, not wasting, sav-J
ing.
And It means that each and every
me of us lias got to help.
Now, we have enough and more than
enough food for ourselves, and the
Government is going to see to it that
we keep here at home a sufficient sup-,
ply of every essential kind of food to j
support our people. But over there j
they simply have not enough. Lord I
Rhondda, the English food controller,
recently cabled the American food ad
ministrator, that unless we- can send
the allies' before the next uropein
harvest 75,000,000 bushels of wheat in
addition to what had been sent up to
January 1 of this year he could not
assure the people of the allies that '
they would have a sufficient supply of
food to carry on the war. j
lie (lid not say anything in tins cable
about the other fond necessary, but
he has tnjil of these nepils in oilier
cables ami by his actions In Kimlnml.
For example, his Intesi regulallnn
compels a reduction of meat eu ing in J
the L'nlteil Kingdom to a niaxlii v 'o of
one pound per week per penon, this
pound ineluiiiv 'he 'none and other
wr.st" mrls In the meat as bought in
the shop.
The allies must have more wheat,
more meat, more fats, mrxe dairy prod
ucts, more sugar. Their harvests were
very short France, had less tliaii half
her normal crop of wheat and the
avnilable shipping Is small In amount
and constantly being lessened by s ib
marines, so that It Is now practically
Impossible to use any ships for the long
voyage necessary to bring fi.od from
Australia and other remote ninrke:s.
The food must come chiefly from
Ainerien. In specific figures it Is nec
essary for us to send to the allies
1,100.000 tons of foodstuffs a month.
Tills Is n great responsibility and a
great problem. The food must , be
found, and also the ships to carry It.
It Is being done, but can only continue
to be done by the Ijelp and full co
operation of all of us over our broad
land. We must produce and save
more.
To supply the wheat necessary until
the next harvest, we must reduce our
consumption by from one-fourth to
one-third; we must cut down our usual
average consumption of meals and
fats by from 10 to 15 per cent, and
dairy products by about 10 per cent.
Over there they are lightening their
belts and doing everything they can.
They are eating war bread ; they are
cutting down their sugar In England
to two pounds per person per month,
and In France and Italy to one pound
how much are you eating? und they
are using ration curds for most of the
staples. We must meet sacrifice vvllli
sacrifice. If we don't, we are helping
to lose the war Instead of helping to
win it.
The First Replacement
Regiment of Engineers
A DIFFERENT ENGINEER ORGANIZATION
This Kcgiim-nt was formed Hoet'iuber 14th, 11)17, at Washington
Iliurucks, I). l, for the express purpose of supplying the various En
gineer I'nits of the I'. S. Army with stilled mechanics and technic
ally trained men.
HOW IT DIFFERS
Upon enlistment the skilled man is sent through a training course de
signed to adapt his technical knowledge to military needs. This Is
divided into two parts:
MILITARY That he may be able to defend himself, the recruit Is
first taught the fundamentals of military science. Instruction
In the use of the rifle and bayonet Is given until proficiency is
obtained. Strength and health are gained by a system of physi
cal exercise.
TECHNICAL The outstanding feature of the course Is the training
given in the Military Trade Schools. Here, under competent In
structors, the Engineer soldier learns how technical skill Is ap
plied to the conduct of the war. He comes out of these Schools
ready to take an effective place in the Engineer Unit and to "de
liver the goods."
Everybody Knows What the Engineers Are Doing In
France Today.
Information regarding enlistments may be had by addressing
Commanding Officer.

MONO our large circle of readers
tliere are a great many who are in-
A
jterestod directly and indirectly in
fruit growing, dairying and other
branches of farming. All of these
naturally wish to keep in close touch with
agricultural activities throughout the
state; and to know about any fight which is
being waged for the measures Oregon far
mers want and against all sorts of schemes
that are detrimental to the people and ag
ricultural interests of this state.

bing arrangement with THE OREGON

paper which is devoting itself exclusively
to the fanning activities and interests of
Oregon. It has a big' organization gath
ering the news of importance to farmers,

and bad legislation, and support honest lea
ders and beneficial measures. We are con
fident that our readers will congratulate us
on our being able to make thia splendid and
attractive clubbing offer,
