You get them at Hubbard Bros. Established before the town started CallinR attention to the fact that the last legislature passed legislation authorizing the state highway com mission to institute suit to' invalidate the Warren Brothers' paving patents. .Senator C. M. Thomas, of this cliy. recently wrote the commission and Attorney lleneral lirown asking why lecal proceedings to such an end have net iieen brought. The legislature regarded the pav ing patents as invalid, and the inten tion of the legislation was that they should he set aside in order that the state might lay the pavement covered by them without paying a royalty to tlio Warrens, according to Senator Thomas. Sinco the enactment of the legisla tion. Attorney Oeneral Brown has rendered an opinion indicating that .the patents are invalid, and the com ! mission has been withholding the royalty charge in awarding contracts on the pavement of the Warrens, but j no suit has been instituted, j Instead vt authorizing the Institu ; tion of legal proceedings the commis sion is said to have been considering a compromise proposal from the War rens which would c-bviate any litigation. Senator Thomas contends that be fore tho special session is asked to provide another r,(iUu,0U0 bond is suo for highway construction tho sit uation should bo cleared up iuhI inti mates that the people will approve no further highway bond issues un less assured that the funds derived from them will noU be expended In paying royalties to paving concerns Ijiw Is Quoted Senator Thomas's letter to' Uie commission reads. In part: I The publication that a $5,000,000 Ponding Din would ue lnirouuceu ai the special session of the legislature called for January 12, 1920, leads to the thought that it would be wise to possess facts In regard to the work ings of the legislation passed by the last assembly, rather than to wait un til the committees convene. I would at this time inquire con cerning chapter 17G of general laws of 1919, and especially to sections one and two, which read as follows: Section 1 It shall bo the duty of the attorney general of the state of Oregon to investigate as to tho valid ity of any alleged patent or copyright on designs, material or use of mater ials, process or mixtures in the con struction of highways, bridges and culverts, and to' advise said commis sion as to the validity ot any alleged patent. Section 2 Upon advice of tho at torney general that in his opinion any such alleged patent Is involved or of doubtful validity, tho state highway commission shall, if it deems tho use of said patent to be advantageous In the construction of state highways, uso or contract for the use of the same in such construction." The legislation was Intended to' strike at tho "Uithulithlc" patents, particularly the one covering tho mix ing of the inateriuls, which many of us believed to be invalid, and which, if I remember correctly, the attornoy general reported was of "doubtful validity." ' I would appreciate the folio-wing data: What types of hard surfacing have been used during 1919? (live comparative yardage of each. Has any claim or request been made to the highway commission for the payment of royalties for tho use cf any patent in connection with the laying of bithulithlc -pavement, or do you apprehend any such claim will he made? The newly organictl Kami !-Vur..'au Kxchango will meet Tuesday, January 13 at 1 p. m. at the .Medfont l'ublic Library for the purpi:'.se of adopting a permanent set of by-laws and electing directors for tlte current year. At, the last meeting, December lti, tempor ary by-laws were adopted ami tem porary directors elt-i tod. The leading turmers of the county are getting behind this cooperative movement and if the attendance is half as large as m.-.v expected it will be possible to get the very best far mers in the county lor directors. The marketing worl. done by the rami II urea ii this last fall has awak ened the farmers to its possibilities. Tho Kurm llureau Cooperative Kx- I'hiinge is the marketing part of tho Farm -Bureau organization incorpor ated. This ineorporat iow was neces sary to give it a b'al standing and put It on a sound business basis where It could expand its -operations as demanded by the tanners. Never before in the history of .vmericau farming has a tno'vement spread like the l-'ai-m llureatl move- in. int. Ill three short years it has grown from nothing to a great nu tional organization. Will it succeed". Ask yourself this question; your co operation will answer for you. Not only has it grown but it is still grow ing and as its activities touch the weakest part of the agricultural in dustry, marketing, it is bound to grow. Agriculture in this country Is fac ing a critical period. It must reor ganize and adjust itself to tho new order o't things. Without production the people in tho cities will starve, but before we am produce moro we must first market what wo have to advantage. This is where tho lffrm Bureau comes In. It will market your livestock anu farm produce and also aid in increasing production. If you as a farmer oi orchnrdist aro inter ested in these things then you will be at the meeting Tuesday, Jan. 13. Is this movement worthy of some effort on your part? MARS1IFIBLD, Ore., Jan. 8. The perennial threut from Medfprd and other Rogue River valley cities to close the lower Rogue to commercial fishing has stirred up the residents of Curry county as usual, and they are out with a'determinatlon to block any such bill at special session of the legislature. Fishermen down there have organized to fight, what they term "hold-up" and the Marshflcld chamber of commerce is backing their efforts. It is argued that no action will be taken to put the greatest industry Curry county has out of business. The Curry county people can show an an- I nual business of more than $200,000 and believe no legislature would par ticipate In killing an industry of that volume, the principal portion tit which goes to the laboring class. rut This Out It Is Vorth Money DON'T.

Weak Links in a Strong Chain , That's just what imitation parts are when they become a part of your Ford ear. They look strong enough, but the met al isn't there the strong, durable Vanadium steel that goes into the Ford ' chassis and every Ford part. Ford parts are specially east and heat treated, each according to its use. Some require a hard, i'iint-likc wearing surface, others need resil iency, and some need just "toughness." Ford metallurgists have been studying these problems for sixteeu years and know just how each unit should be made to endure a maximum of wear and tear. They know that best results can be obtained only by the uso of special formulas for different parts, and that honest Ford parts wear from thirty-five to one hundred per cent longer than counterfeits. We carry complete assortments of genuine Ford parts for both passen ger cars and trucks. And our garage is equipped to give careful, prompt Ford service from minor adjustments to complete overhauls.
