JOHNSTON ALFALFA MOWERS

We add to previous Johnston features as follows: The heavy steel cutter bar is smooth under
neath and fitted with malleable guards having serrated plates. This bar is also fitted with steel wear
ing plates for the back of the knife, which can be cheaply replaced. The wheels are high and fitted
with three pawls, which insures an easy and quick start in heavy alfalfa. Many others have only two
pawls, and in heavy cutting have to back up to start. The push and drag bars are one continuous
piece of steel, forming the acme of strength. One end is attached at the crank cuse and the other
underneath the frame near the gears. Tills end is threaded, thereby allowing ample adjustment for
always keeping the cutter bar in a straight line with the pitman. A convenient foot lever assists in
raising the cutter bar and makes the task a very easy one. A good sized boy can handle it

To Albert J. Moran of Echo, Ore-

You are hereby notified that Guy

To the Customers of the Hermis
ton Farmers Exchange:
The undersigned has just com
pleted an audit of the affairs of the
Exchange.
Hermiston
Farmers
This audit reveals the following
facts:
(1) The Exchange Is perfect
ly solvent and a small profit has
been earned during the past year.
. (2) Though solvent, the Ex
change is not now on a sound fin
ancial basis.
In order to put the Exchange on
a sound financial basis, increase the
safety of the enterprise and place
the business in a position to render
greater service to you, certain poli
cies will have to be changed. It is
the purpose of this letter to tell you
about these changes and the reasons
why they are necessary.
The Hermiston Farmers Exchange
is doing a big business—sales last
year over One Hundred and Five
Thousand Dollars. It will continue
to do a big business, because the
service offered is necessary to the
convenience and welfare of the com
munity; but the Exchange does not
now possess the capital necessary to
handle this big volume of business.
You, the customers of the Ex-
change, now owe it over ten thou-
sand dollars.
The Exchange not
only is carrying you to that extent,
but is also carrying a large stock
of merchandise, so that it may sup
ply your wants. For this reason,
it is imperative that the Exchange
reduce credit extensions, at least
temporarily, until more much-need
ed capital can be secured. There
fore. by order of the President. Mr.
Frank J. Auseon, all sales during
April will be made on a strictly
CASH BASIS
Further, an urgent request is
made that you come In at once and
settle up your account—the Ex
change would be more than glad to
carry you If possible, but it can’t be
done with the limited capital now
on hand.
Next month it is hoped and ex
pected that the Exchange will again
be in a position to extend moderate
credit.
Back up the Exchange. and the
Exchange will back you; but the
Exchange must be on a sound and
profitable basis before it can ren-
d*r the best service.
