Horace Addis, field editor of the
Oregon Farmer, was a Hermiston vis
itor Tuesday. Mr. Addis was calling
on the livestock breeders of the pro.
Ject. He stated that some of the best
pure bred hogs in the Northwest was
bred and raised in the vicinity of
Hermiston. He made a trip to the
ranch of H. J. Stillings and compli
mented the gentleman on his Poland
China hogs. “Mr. Stillings has made
a name for himself through his pure
bred hogs. Where others have failed
Mr. Stillings has made good.”

Or you men—Does a cigar draw well when the
wrapper is broken?
Just the same with a range. How can you expect it to
work well when the air which is supposed to come up
through the fire, leaks in through gapping joints in the
range body?
To avoid leaky joints. Monarch Ranges are built with
every joint riveted — the steel held tight and solid to the
iron parts. But to rivet the joints of a range, a tough, un
breakable kind of iron has to be used. Monarchs are built
of malleable iron. The other kiml of iron will not stand
dose riveting necessary for permanent tightness.
No stove putty is needed to make the Monarch tight.
It stays tight torever, and gives the same satisfaction
after many years’ hard use as when new.
