A new type Draper machine for cleaning sugar beet seed and separating vetch from other grains has just been installed at the warehouse of the F. E. Sam son company at the corner of Fourth and Front streets in this city. This fine equipment aug ments the already comprehen sive facilities of this concern for cleaning and separating other seed and grain, bringing the local firm in a position to han dle practically all types of seed and grain cleaning. Installation of a new machine for handling finer seed such as Ladino clover will be made at once, according to F. E. Sam son. The new Draper cleaner and separator was fortunately secured before national defense demands called for diversion of machine tools and labor to other channels. The steadily growing industry of sugar beet seed rais ing in southern Oregon will come to its peak at harvest time here during July. The Draper equipment, op erated by experienced members of the F. E. Samson staff, does a thorough job of cleaning beet seed and effectively separates vetch from other companion grains, it is claimed. Facilities for grinding grain and mixed feeds to exacting requirements are already established at the headquarters of F. E. Samson company. An invitation to farmers of the Rogue River valley to In spect this new and unique Drap er equipment has been extended by Mr. Samson. Fir Staton Early Marshf ield. June 12.

This was the 22nd consecutive year that Firestone tiret have been on the winning cars in this great race. One by one, Rose passed the other cars in the race until he had his car in 4th position. At the 380 mile mark a broken wheel eliminated Wilbur Shaw, defending champion and three- time winner, who was leading 1 the race at that point. Driving spectacularly around the turns and brilliantly on the straight aways, Mauri Rose toon over took the other leading cars and swept across the finish line in a final burst of speed. After com pleting an extra lap around the 2Vi-mile track, Rose pulled into the pits to let Floyd Davis drive the winning car into victory lane. Davis, however, already was waiting in the winner's pen to congratulate Rose on his re markable exhibition of driving. This is only the second time in the history of the Indianap olis sweepstakes that two driv ers have shared the champion ship as co-winners. Rex Mays, popular California driver, won second place money for the second consecutive year, He was followed across the fin ish line by Ted Horn, Ralph Hepburn and Cliff Bcrgere, in that order, all of them riding on Firestone tires.
