ZEROLENE fills these requirements perfectly, because it is enrrectly re fined from selected Cali fornia asphajt-baae crude. "Proven Entirely Satisfactory" Only perfect satisfaction can ac count for the use of ZEROLENE by the majority of automobile own ers. Leading coast distributors also testify that it is "a most satisfactory meter oil." . v Thejr know from the records of their service departments a.-.d we knew from exhaustive tests that ZEROLENE, correctly refined from selected California asphalt-base crude, gives perfect lubrication with least carbon deposit.

Approximately 75 per cent, of our sugar is shipped to our shores. We produce about 1,000,000 tons of sucrar a year. Our imports from abroad amount to over 3,000, 000 tons a year in normal times. The United' States Food Administration asks each family to limit its use of sugar to two pounds per month per person for household use. The military situation de mands that every available ship be placed at the diioosal of the Army or Navy. When we save sugar, we save shipping.

The country will be called upon to subscribe six billion dollars, of whicli Oregon's allotment will be approxi mately forty million dollars. In order that Oregon may meet this huge demand upon its resources, every citizen of the state must be enlisted In the united and undivided support of the loan, and be thor oughly aroused to the necessity of responding promptly to the demands which loyalty and patriotism place upon him. The citizens of Oregon have resolutely met every duty and obliga tion incident to the war, and have placed their state among those who rank foremost in duty well per formed. We expect that this standard wiil be maintained in the Fourth Liberty Loan Campnign. You are, therefore, urged to give this cause your earnest attention and to assist in every possible way the movement to put OR5GON FIRST OVER THE TOP. Our boys on the western front have their faces toward Berlin there can be no backward step. We are determined that the struggle for democracy and universal peace throughout the world shall not be in vain. Let us at home do our full duty. Yours for World-Democracy, MILTON A. MILLER, Chairman, Sub-Committee, Feder al, State and County Officials, Fourth Liberty Loan Campaign. EDGAR B. PIPER, General Chairman, Committee on Speakers and Music, Fourth Liberty Loan Campaign.

ALL WORK GUARANTEED J O'CLOCK SEPT. 28 The all-important "zero hour" of the battles in France is to have its counterpart in the campaign of the Fourth Liberty Loan in Oregon. Battles In France are timed from an hour, ' or minutes o? an liour. Tins time is known as the -ero hour" and is a secret closely guarded by the division heads. All movements of troops and all action is based on time calculations made ..from the "zero hour." A certain infantry receives instructions to take a certain objective at so many minutes past the zero hour. In that way a whole campaign can be worked out In detail, with all commanders fully aware of their relation to other movements, waiting only the secret which is the key to the whole move ment. Oregon's "zero hour" for the next Liberty Loan is nine o'clock, Septem ber 28. This is the watchword of the whole drive and through voluntary subscriptions this state is expected to have attained all objectives and again be "over the top" first by nine io AMf TV 4A o'clock of the' day when other states will Just be getting into action.. County managers and committee men in their recent meeting in Port land decided that it could be done; j that all Oregon needed was to be told how much Uncle Sam needed, and how badly he needed it', and its patriotic citizens would do their part so willingly that the effort of soliciting committees would not be needed. Symbolizing this whole scheme, state headquarters lias sent to the Cazetto-Times a graphic interperta tiun of the hour of the campaign. It is a small clock with the "zero hour" nine o'clock pointed out by the hands. At the top, a soldier in an ex pression or grim determination brings home the spirit of accomplish ment while at the bottom is Uncle Sam, confidently looking at the time indicated. It is up to Oregon to see that he is not disappointed. Buttons for subscribers to the next loan have also arrived in Oregon and are now being distributed to the county organizations. The button is slightly smaller than the last. It is patterned after the hosor flag of tha last loan, being a rectangle of white bordered with red and crossed .by the four blue stripes, symbolizing the Fourth Liberty Loun. Posters and other advertising matter are arriving in great quan tities and problems of previous drives with regard to slow deliveries of supplies have been overcome with early movement from Washington in ! the way of largo posters and Htho ! graphs and local production of the I smaller matters. Local committees will get what they want when they nerd it bo they ! will be able to offer their subscrib ;ers every inducement to make his voluntary declaration in plenty of ' time to make good the plan of the ! state committees. Mr. and Mrs. Harley fc'prouls of this city and Mr. and Mrs. Chauncey Keeny of Monument departed on Sunday for Seattle, the young men going to-that city to obtain work In the ship yards. j Mr, and Mrs. Frank- Anderson of Eight Mile were visitors in.

For this pur pose, the business of Swift & Company is now divided into three classes: Class 1 includes such products as beef, pork, mutton, oleomargarine and ethers that are essentially animal rrcducts. Profits are limited to 9 per cent of the capital employed in these departments, (including sur plus and borrowed money), or not to exceed two and a half cents on each dollar of sales. Class 2 includes the soap, glue, fertilizer, and other departments t more or less associated with the meat business. Many of these de partments are in competition with outside businesses whce profits are not limited. Profits in this class are restricted to 15 per cent of the capital employed. Class 3 includes outside investments, such as those in stock yards, and the operation of packing plants in foreign countries. Profits in this class are not limited. Total profits for all departments together in 1918 will probably be between three and four per cent on an increased volume of sales. The restrictions absolutely guar antee a reasonable relation between live stock prices and wholesale meat prices, because the packer's profit can not possibly average more than a fraction of a cent per pound of product Since the profits on meat (Class 1 are running only about 2 cents on each dollar of sales, we have to depend on the profits from soap, glue, fertilizer (Class 2, also limited) and other depart ments, (Class 3) to obtain reasonable earnings on capital. Swift & Company is conducting its business so as to cbme within these limitations. Swift & Company, U. S A.
