Making 20 Years of Racing
oer v& uir uwners Jodau
IN the early days of automobile
contests, Barney Oldficld-out
to win .very racestudied tires
His consistent success led other
drivers to ask for tires constructed
to his specifications.
Twenty years of road and track
victories with a steady and increas
ing demand for tires as he built them
convinced Barney Oldfield that
these speed tests pointed the way to
a better tire for everyday use.
The enthusiastic reception of Old
field Cords by the public proved he
was right. Scores of the most
prominent dealers in the country
and many thousands of car owners,
experienced in the use of tires bear
witness by their decided preferenc
mat Uianeia is doing a bigger an
Detier-joD oi tire making.
This volume, handled in an effec
tive way in every phase of manufa
ture and distribution, has resulted
in price quotations far below what
you'd expect on tires known to be
better built and more enduring.
Practically every important race
event for three years has been won
on Oldfields. The Wichita Test Run
in which an entire set of Oldfield
Cords covered 34,525 miles on rough
roads proves the mettle of the Most
Trustworthy Tires Built in every
day driving.
The Master Driver and Tire
Builder has given the public a new
standard of tire wear and tire cost
a true economy that every car owner
should know about.
Your Oldfield dealer has these
facts talk to him.

TOURIST INFLUENCE
ON FUTURE BUSINESS
"There have been more visitors to
the Pacific Northwest this summer,
both by rail and by automobile and by
steamsihp than in any previous year,
said Herbert Cuthbert, executive sec
retary Pacific Northwest Tourist Asso
ciation. "Just how many people have
been hero I do not know yet, but I do
know, from all the reports that have
come to me from various sections of
Oregon. Washington and British Co
lumbja. that these people have been of
a belter class man in past years.
There has been a greater tendency on
the part of automolbie tourists to pat
ronize hotels and restaurants, and they
have spent their money more freely.
"In some of the cities I have visited
the business men have frankly stated
that they did not know how they would
have tided over the summer months
had it not been'for this tourist travel.
And it is only natural to assume that
the benefits have been just as great to
the larger cities, although, of course,
naturally they have been less notice
able. It is a little early yet to esti
mate how much money has been spent
in the aggregate rjy visitors, yet, 1
think it is safe to say that it is be
tween 45 and 50 million dollars."
Jn response to the query as to what
other benefits the Pacific Noithwest
received from these visitors, other
than cash revenue, Mr. Cuthbert made
some very interesting statements. He
pointed out that the tourist was re
sponsible for the high class nature of
some oi our transportation raciiities.
He pointed to the ferry service be
tween Seattle, Vancouver and Victoria.
In winter these splendid steamships
have often carried as low as between
60 and 70 passengers. Anyone knows
that if that were the normal travel
they could not be maintained on the
run for two months. It is the tourist
in summer that swens tne business to
such an extent as, to make it possible
to mainain this nigh class service the
year round, because it is not unusual
for each steamship to carry from 700
to 900 passengers a single trip in sum
mer.
The tourist travel in the future is
going to improve many other lines or
transportation and to cause other
transportation enterprises' to be start
ed. Take, for instance, the Anacortes
ferry which was inaugurated this year.
It was an experiment with nothing to
show what its prospects were, and yet
all who are familiar with the results
know that it has been so successful as
to very largely increase the number of
automobilists that have visited Van
couver Island. In fact, the city of
Victoria claims a benefit of rot less
than $250,000 to its business men
through its operation, and it has been
a profitable venture for those engaged
in it.
In the future we will find in the Pa
cific Northwest that a large amount of
local capital will be invested in new
transportation routes, either by auto
mobile, by train or by ferry. And this
opens up all the prospects for new cap
ital that can be employed in catering
to the tourist travel.
'I found." said Mr. Cuthbert. "in
visiting Portland in June, that Sam
Lancaster, one of Oregon s leading cit
izens, who was the engineer of the
great Columbia Itiver Highway, had
opened up thre.e most beautifully lo
cated, elegantly equipped camps for
tourists where there were no hotels.
One of them is on the Columbia River
Highway, one, I believe, at Lost Lake,
and I forget where the other one is but
the point is, that this is a new employ
ment for capital. It is providing a
new business enterprise tor Mr. Lan
caster. It is employing a large num
ber of people, but above all, it is pur
chasing large supplies of furniture.
beds, camp equipment, supplies and
products of the soil, and other things
that would not have been purhased but
for the establishment, of these ramps,
and but for the increase in the tourist
travel. This is one of the great bene
fits of the tourist business which has
been overlooked bv the people of this
Pacific Northwest.
"Many people -look only at the dol
lars which are spent by travelers for
meals or at hotels, and forget that ev
ery dollar spent for meals is to the
beneht of the grower and producer,
nd. of the laboring man, and every
dollar spent in the hotels is for the
beneht of the merchant and the pro
ducer and the caterer and the manu
facturer who would not have this busi
ness but for the tourist.
In the near future we are going to
fee millions of dollars spent in new
hotel.-, new accommodations at lake
and mountain resorts where not a dol
lar has been spent so far, and in cities
where the hotel accommodation at
present is not either sufficient or satis
factory. And in the expenditure of
these millions of dollars the general
public is going to be benefited. This
li in addition to the ordinary expendi
ture by the tourist while he is amongst
us.
If the plans of the association for
next year, which are now being ma
tured, are carried out, 1 believe 1923
will see the greatest tourist year we
have ever had and probably we will
have more visitors than any other re
sort section has ever had in a single
year. This will be in spite of the fact
that this season we had many large
national conventions which we will not
have next year.
The point I want to make, how
ever, said Mr. cutnoeri, "is not mat
the benefits derived from the tourist
business are solely in catering to the
visitor while he is here, nor in his ex
penditure with our stores, automobile
dealers, garages, etc., but in the em
ployment of capital and labor, in new
transportation enterprises in new
building operations for hotels ar.d
camps, arwi other accommodations at
new or existing resorts, and in the in
creased business which is given to
manufacturers of blankets, linens, fur
niture, crockery and all the other items
thst go into the equipment of hotels
and camp sites, and in the employ
ment cf more labor and in the general
increase cf business amongst those
who handle irr a wholesale or retail
way the articles just referred to."

Tum-A-Lum and Tum-A-Lum Prodircl
AS we motored through the country, we stopped at a prosperous-looking
ranch that was fenced with Tum-A-Lum fence posts and
Tum-A-Lum fence boards. On gaining entrance to the yard we saw
a house, barn, garage,. chicken coop, hog pen, apple house and machine
shed, all built of Tum-A-Lum material. The mouldings, doors, win
dows, shingles, plaster board, ceiling paper, lath, plaster, brick, sand,
lime and cement all came from the Tum-A-Lum,
Tl;e hog pen was covered with the best grade of Roofing put up
especially for the Tum-A-Lum yards. As we went to the wood
shed there were Tum-A-Lum Slabs and in the coal bin lay a good
supply of Tum-A-Lum Lump Coal. In our conversation with the
owner we learned he had used Tum-A-Lum Plan Books and had gained
his ideas from other Tum-A-Lum customers. We have the same
satisfied customers all over Oregon and Washington.
SERVICE" is our motto. Phone 4121. That's our self-starter.
