Uditonal association who were fortun
ate enough to visit the cranberry bogs
;n Clatsop county, Oregon, last fall
were astounded at the magnitude of the
industry.
The cranberry industry on the Pacl
tic coast, while new, already occupies
a arm place among the horticultural
industries of the Northwest Berries
of very fine quality are grown in Ore
gon and Washington, In the district at
the mouth of the Columbia river. Here
.s a great frost-fre son with abun
dant rainfall, having a climate admir
ably adapted to the growing of crau
berries.
Picking will commence the second
week in September and will extend
over a period of four to six weeks
Many people are attracted to this dis
trict by the fact that they can earn
good wages picking cranberries, and at
the same time, enjoy the mild weather
of the Oregon coast climate In Septem-

fruit which has

t;.'v....ed. ilieie is a pieju.iice in some
uuailers in f.ior of the eastern cran
terr. This is due more to habit than
reason. The cranberiy grown on the
east shoies of the Limed States is ln
deed a wonderful fruit but the cran
berry grown on the Pacific coast is of
equally good quality and requires leas
sugar when put up. The industry Is
well organised and the fruit is market
ed cooperatively, lierries will nnr

The cranberry associations of the
coast are urging the purchase of cran-
oerries by the housewife mirlv nn
count of the fact that there is a shrink
age in berries as the season progresses,
and the thrifty housewife, by making
an early purchase, saves just that
much, cranberries canned earlv in iv

When vou come ri At di
to reason, what is there to
discount tires
THE next time a friend comes
to you all excited about some
wonderful tire bargain ask him
how much value he ought to get
for each dollar of tire money.
It's astonishing that any car
owner today should not know all
the tire service he is entitled to.
Nor how to check up between
the economy of par quality on
one hand and big discounts,
surplus stocks, discontinued lines
and retreads on the other.
For two years U. S. Tire
makers have been telling the
American people all about tires.
They have laid open the tire
business from every angle.
They have always
led the fight for better
tires.
They have consist-
ently maintained quality first
standards with certain economy
for the tire buyer.
They have established 92
Factory Branches all over the
country. Perfecting U. S. distri
bution so that you get a fresh,
live tire every time you buy a
U. S. Tire.
So when a man once decides
on U. S. Tires he knows what he
is getting in quality service
economy. In support of his own judg
ment he gets the pledged word
and reputation of the largest
and most successful tire concern
in the world.
A sound reason for the fact
that you see more
LT. S. Tires on more
r, .
0!k- cars lan ever
year.

U. S. CHAIN TREAD

it may b said that they deliver
