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.

I trouble of any kind. 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

Hepburn and Cliff Bcrgere, in
that order, all of them riding on
Firestone tires.
