A GOOD S A LE S WHO WORKS CHEAP HEWJPAPER ADVERTISING © Connor Auto Repair Shop Hermiston, Oregon Now Headquarters F o r . A NEW KIND OF TIRE AMAZING LIFE-SAVER TREAD GIVES YOU SPLIT- SECOND STOPS ON WET, SLIPPERY ROADS • I t's here to save y o u r life! Just look at the row upon row of never-ending spiral bars in this new Life-Saver Tread. Then you’ll understand why it acts like a battery of windshield wipers, sweeps the water right and left, forces it out through the deep grooves, making a DRY TRACK for the rubber to grip. Stops You Quicker, Safer That’s why the new Goodrich Safety Silvertown will stop you quicker, safer—on a wet pave m ent—than any tire has ever stopped you before! That’s why a “Silvertown Stop” can easily be a LIFE-SAVER to you on slippery, rain-drenched roads. Double Protection And, adding one safety feature to another, this new Silvertown is also the o n ly tire that gives you the Golden P ly—the fa mous Goodrich invention that resists the terrific blowout- causing heat generated in side all tires by today’s high speeds. By resisting this in te rn a l h eat, the Golden Ply protects you against those high-speed blow-outs. No Extra Cost Remember, many tires cost more than Silvertowns; but no o th e r tir e —at any price—can give you this two-way pro tection against skids and blow-outs. Unless you make your next tires Silvertowns, you’ll be cheating yourself and your family out of the greatest tire safety ever offered. See us before it’s too late.

Of the 48 officially desig nated flowers, there are 36 distinct genera represented. These 36 may be roughly classified as trees, eight; shrubs, eight; perennials or fore ground plants, 16, and exceptions, four. Perhaps nowhere among the state flowers are utility and beauty more gracefully combined than in the fruit trees. In the apple of Arkan sas and Michigan, the orange of Florida, and the peach of Delaware are found the utmost in adaptabil ity for human use. Their blossoms are inspirations for festivals and ceremonies, fruits for the table, homes for the birds and choice plac es for retreat to happy children. Of the eight which are classified as shrubs, the Mockorange of Idaho, the Purple Lilac of New Hampshire, and the Mountain-Laurel of Con necticut are perhaps best known to us. The Lupine, found abundantly in eastern Oregon during the month of June, is the nearest relative to Texas Bluebonnet. The possession of the Goldenrod, of which there are many species, is shared as a state flower by Nebras ka, Kentucky and Alabama. The rose group holds the signal honor as having the greatest number of delegates among the state flow ers, being represented by the Amer ican Beauty of the D. of Columbia, “the rose”. New York, the Wild Prairie Rose of North Dakota, the Cherokee Rose and the Wild Rose of Iowa. Although New Mexico’s Yucca is not identical with the hardy specie grown here, its characteristics are similar enough to warrant mention. Arizona boasts of the Giant Cac tus, Carnegia gigantea, which has beautiful night-blooming rose-like white flowers. The writer had the opportunity of visiting the Oregon State college greenhouse a week ago and marveled at the cacti display, many of which had the choicest of bloom. That distinctive cup-of-gold, Cal ifornia poppy, belonging to our neighboring sunshine state of Calif ornia, grows almost too profusely to be appreciated in some of our gar dens. Even though Washington claims the Rhodedendron, one couldn’t find more gorgeous specimens than in the Mt. Hood area. Many lovely pink flower clusters are still clinging to greet the many out-of-state visitors Mt. Hood welcomes at this time of year. The aggressive spirit of Oregon, like that of California, crops out in its flower name, the Oregon holly- grape. In the early spring the in teresting plants with their waxy, holly-like leaves, and their fragrant clusters of tiny yellow blosaoms. are lovely for house-bouquet value. In tunny places where the Oregon grape grow«, the berries are beginning to SAYLOR'S F IR S T SA LE Begins Sat., J u ly 15.
