Through the open win dow were blown the scents of a city Spring carbon monoxide, warm asphalt, roast beef sand wiches. "Ah Spring! exclaimed the dentist "What's ft remind you of?" "Wheel bearings," I repltW. He topped grinding. "Wharf Spring reminds you ef wheel bearings?" "No," I said, "all that grinding reminds ma af what's probably happening ta the front wheel bearings an my Hitpano-Plymouth." The doctor stopped his busier, and I ex plained. Winter rain washes sand and silt into your bearings. The result It something like what happens when a dentist applies an emery wheel to a tooth. Under constant grinding wear, your wheel beaiings can become loose and worn. They can make wheels thimmy and wear out tires. And new bear ings can cost you as much aa $50, installed. The way ta avoid damage Is ta hare yovr bearings repacked every 3000 miles. Tho Union OH Minute) Men, for ox ample, hava special equipment for this fob.

Wafer Conservation Urged By Cordy As Shortage Indicated April 1 water forecasts Indi cate that if the spring and summer are hot and dry there may be a material shortage of irrigation water, particularly ta the Medford irrisatinn ri!trl- states C. B. Cordy, assistant county agent. With normal spring rains th shortage will nnt h mmvr k every effort should be made to conserve stored irrigation wa ter. Steps that will help sav stored water are full use of available flood water, clean cul tivation, and cleaning of irriga tion ditches. The first cover spray will have to be completed about May 12 to IS. This is a pre liminary date to aid in deter mining when to use flood water. Orchards with cover crops ara now quite dry and an Irrigation with flood water between th caylx and first cover sprays would be desirable. If the soil Is not too dry th cover crorj should be turned under before irrigating. If this is not practical, th orchard should be cultivated as soon as it is dry enough after irrigating.

Both these families have been trading here for years." 3' "I dent know whether Mrs. Brictlcy and Mrs. Stockbridge read the same magazines or listen to the same radio programs. But I do know that they both read the local newspapers and the ads in them...my ads and my manufacturers' ads." I "That's the way It works with all my customers.
