should your crankcase
fc CLEANED ?
Automobile manufacturers carefully recommend, in their Books of
Instruction, regular draining and cleaning of the crankcase.
This is necessary because engine operation causes road dust, carbon,
fine metal particles and other impurities to accumulate in your crank
case oil. This gritty oil circulates through your engine, impairs its per
formance and ultimately leads to rapid depreciation and repairs.
To meet this need, Modern Crankcase
Cleaning Service has been established by
first-class garages and other dealers, co
operating with the Standard Oil Company.
These garages and dealers use Calol Flush
ing Oil, the scientific agent that cleans
out old oil, dirt, grit and other impurities,
and does not impair the lubricating effi
ciency of fresh oil used. The cleaned crank
case is refilled with the correct grade of
Zerolene.
Look for the garage or dealer displaying
the sign shown abtve, it means "Bettor
operation and longer engine life.''

PUBLIC IS ASKED
TO LAY IN COAL
The general public is asked to pur
chase coal and have it stored during
summer months. The impression has
gained general dissemination that
freight rates would drop. This is a
mistake however, according to a bulle
tin just received by the (). -VV. R. & N.
freight office from H. E. Lounsbury,
general traffic manager. The bulletin
follows:
Regardless of efforts to get before
the consumers of coal, assurances as
to stability of rates fur this season at
least, there continues a general dispos
ition on the part of the buying public
to hold off their purchases, no doubt
due in considerable measure to expres
sions of certain officers of the admin
istration leading the consuming public
to.believe there will be a reduction in
freight rates during the coming sea
son. There is nothing in the situation
that would justify such belief, for the
simple reason that freight rates cannot
be reduced until tratisporation costs
have been substantially lowered, and
that has not yet been accomplished. I
wrote you along similar lines on May
6th, and at this time reproduce the fol
lowing telegrams, copies of which
have been sent to me by F. W. Robin
son, freight traffic mrriagT, Union
Pacific System :
"Utah Coal operators by Cameron
Coal Co., dated .lune 3rd to Hon. Her
bert Hoover, Secretin y of Commerce,
Wasnington, D. C.
"Government departments recently
advised public that unless coal was
freely stored during summer months
coal panic would ensue during coming
winter and (Congressional Committt-e
reporting on Senate Bill S-186 ex
pressed similar view. This correct
statement of situation was accepted
and acquiesced in by consuming public.
However, telefirraphh- announcement
of President Harding's recent inter
view with Interstate Commerce Com
mission was unfortunately unduly
emphasized by newspapers and has re
sulted in serious checking coal stor
age in anticipation freight reduction.
In Utah such reduction very unlikely
because btate 1'ubin- Utilities Commis
sion relusert permit last freight rate
increase to apply on coal moving wholly
within state. Coal mines this field
working only twenty to twenty-five
per cent time and further reductions
would be completely demoralizing. If
not inconsistent with policy your de
nartment would very much appreciate
an expression from you as to whether
or not you have information regarding
immediate coal Treight decrease in
western states as well as your views
concerning summer storage- in fact,
permit us to suggest that an official
expression to Associated Press and
others from Washington as to whether
or not any proposed freight reduction
will apply to coal would result in clar
ifying present uncertainty which is
causing stagnation in coal business.
(Continued disposition on part of con
suming public to delay storing coal
will unquestionably bring about serious
condition this winter."
Mr. Hoover's reply of June 7th,
follows :
"I have no information that leads
me to believe there will be any reduc
tion of coal rates this season.
Columbia Recedes to Normal
The Columbia, which reached a
freshet stage, higher than any time
since 1894. here a month ago, has re
ceded to normal flow for the season.
Truck gardeners east and west of
the city are busy on land formerly cov
ered by water, and heavy potato crops
will be grown on the ranches it is said.
John H. Koberg, owner of the Twen
tieth Century Truck Farm, inundated
with heavy loss when dikes broke, is
pumping out the flood water. He ex
pects to be able to replant his highly
developed tracts.
The receding waters have left un
covered a portion of the huge sandbar
just north of the city, and local golf
enthusiasts who utilize the large bar
as a course expect to be able to re
sume their play within a few weeks.

Vinegar Company Proposes Increase
The Hood River Apple Vinegar Co.
has called a meeting of stockholders
for next Tuesday morning when, plans
for increasing the capital slock of the
concern, a pioneer apple by-products
company of the Northwest, to $150,000,
an increase of $f)0,000 will be consid
ered. It is pro(osed to make the in
creased stock eight per cent, pre
ferreu, cumulative and non-voting.
The by-products concern, launched
about 15 years ago by C. J. Calkins,
now president and manager, has made
a steady growth. Its original plant
was a one-room structure of shack
proportions. The plant today occupies
more than a city block. The company
has branched out recently, and now in
addition to the production of trainloads
of vinegar and cider, is bottling soft
drinks in huge quantities and is can
ning pork and beans. It is proposed to
can other food products.
Prof. Henderson Invents Thinner
Prof. L. F. Henderson has invented
an apple tninner tnat has attracted a
favorabe comment of growers. Ordi
narily thinners mount stepladders and
remove excess apples with small thin
ning shears. Prof. Henderson's inven
tion is a long pole, with small shears
at the end operated easily by the ap
paratus that slides up and down the
handle of the long rod. , It is predicted
that the new thnner will become popu
lar as an orchard accessory.
Boy Hurt by Automobile
Will, 8-year old son of Mr. and Mrs.
J. Eakin, is recovering from bruises
sustained last week when struck by an
automobile driven by street workers.
The youngster at play ran in front of
the machine, which was moving at a
careful, moderate- pace. It was at first
feared that the child, whose father is
engaged with a State Highway De
partment bridge crew in eastern Ore
gon, might have sustained serious in
ternal injuries.

SPEAKER SCORES
RADICAL TENDENCIES
Radicalism of labor and the disnlay
of a similar trend by farmers in parts
of the country was roundly scored
Thursday night by E. B. Fish, editor
of "Labor and Industry, " in a Chautau
qua address. "Whither are we Drift
ing;
was Mr. Fish's subiect, and he
answered by declaring that the coun
try's goal would soon be social and
economic chaos, unless the radical agi
tators of labor cease demands for
shorter hours agd curtailment of pro
duction. Mr. Fish denounced the mas
ter of the Washington grange for an
alleged series of radical acts and an
address at the annual meeting, although
no name was mentioned, and yet, he
declared, the farmers of Wahington ap
parently sponsor these destructive ten
dencies by reelecting this man,
Mr. Fish declared that he was not
speaking as an anti-union labor man.
He stated that he in fact was a spon
sor of organized labor.buthe expressed
the belief that the continued employ
ment of radical tactics will work for the
destruction of honest organized labor
and every other fabric of the American
body politic.

MARKETING TALKS
Talk No. 1. The Label on the Box.
The first Northwest box apples startled the Eastern
markets. Quality, Oracle and pack did the trick.
Labels were not used at first. They are indispen
sable now. For some time the mere name of the
district was the best advertiser lor the apples. To
day the label Is.
The perfected grade and pack was rigidly followed
I' n i long period. There are all sorts and conditions
of rade and pack now. All sorts of labels. The la
bels have ail soils ol reputation. As Kipling wrote:
"There's sad decline in son ol man since Adam was
ol earth."
I here's been some decline too in the apple packs
since the industry was in its Infancy. The test
known labels top the market today. Always did,
always will. What the trade expects Is quality plus
correct observance of the pack and rade rules.
Nothing more is necessary, nothing less. The "thou
shalt nots" of the trade rules must govern. That
commandment brings the price when followed.
Our "BAR-NONE" label will be limited
to A 1 quality, grade and pack.
