Thursday, Dee. 6, will linger long in te memory of the Boardman tur key growers who took their birds to Hermiston to be marketed.

Many a fine 20-pound torn was thrown into the No. 2 heap for having a blue neck, leaving the decidedly blue owner standing by. The tur key money meant many things to many people. To some it meant payment of water taxes, to some the payment of the farm loan, to some it meant new pieces of furni ture, or to some new clothes, and to Mr. Swayze, the banker at Hermis ton, it meant a great deal. People were pretty much dissatisfied but the grading was fair and probably no better results would have been obtained at Portland, and it certain ly is an advantage to get one's check the day the birds are deliv ered and to see them graded. The price was lower than it has been for some time and since the grading was so lenient at the Thanksgiving market and the price high, the con trast was that much greater.

There is an electric light and power system, a water sys tem, a fuel system. In the new Ford, you will find each of these systems of the latest design and best materials. Every part has been made to serve yon faith fully and well at a minimum of trouble and expense. Take, for example, the generator one of the most important parts of the elec trical system which supplies the current for lighting and for engine ignition. In the new Ford, the gen erator is of the power-house type and is distinctive in many features. It has been specially designed to pre vent most forms of trouble. Oiling is necessary only once a year. About the only thing you need do is to have the charging rate changed as the seasons change. Closely allied to the elec trical system is the ignition system. It, too, is of new mechanical design in the new Ford. There is but one high tension cable and that connects the coil with the distributor. Even cables from the distributor to the spark plugs have been eliminated. Special care has also Ford Motor Company t" . ... You Can Do It Do you want a car? A home of your own? A vacation trip? A col lege education? A radio set? New clothes? New furniture? A safe in vestment? Or any of a hundred oth er things? Possibly you may not be able to get them all. But if you settle down and make up your spending plan with an eye to what you want MOST, you can GET IT. Make an expense bud get. Cut out the unimportant items. Trim down, save, and deposit the money in our bank. Try it. It will be there when you need it. Fir& National Bank HEPPNER, OREGON been taken to make the dis tributor water -proof, thus preventing short circuits from rain, etc. The entire electrical and ignition systems of the new Ford are so simple in design and so carefully made that they will give you surpris ingly little trouble. Yet that doesn't mean they should be neglected. Certain little attentions are needed from time to time. The storage battery should be given water and the connections kept clean. The generator charging rate should be changed as indi cated. Spark plugs should be cleaned at regular inter vals. Distributor points should also be kept clean and the distributor cam given a light film of vaseline every 2000 miles. These are just little things, but they mean a great deal to your car. You can have them looked after at very small cost by the Ford dealer when you take the car in for oiling and greasing. A thorough checking-up at regular intervals will lengthen the life of your car and give you many thou sands of miles of carefree, economical motoring.
