Mrs. Mamie Wagley Briggs, of the ex­ tension board of the Degree of Honor, met with the local lodge last Friday even­ ing, and gave them a fine address in re­ gard to the work being done. She is very loyal in allegiance to the parent or­ der, the A. O. U. W., and very enthuei Mtic in her work. She hopes to see 2,tMX> members by the time of the next meeting of the grand lodge, and if these are se­ cured it will raise the amount of the beneficiary from one to two thousand dollars. Mrs. Briggs remained in this city over Sunday, and is fond of McMinn­ ville, as it was her home at one time. Necessity is the mother of invention. L. I. Brooks had a narrow tire wagon and concluded that a wide tire was de sirable. He has the latter now, and it cost but little. He bad a tire of steel binder tire and boiler iron, nine inches wide bolted on the outside of the narrow tires of his wagon. Instead of w elding the tires they are riveted, and can be re­ moved if desired. James Phillips of Corvallis, did the work, charging from |9 to >12 according to the amount of ma­ terial furnished. Mr. Brooks considers the scheme a great success. Straw can be hauled from the stack through a field of last year spring’s clover seeding with­ out cutting up the land In passing loaded over the fields or soft pasture lands, the wagon leaves no damage what­ ever.—Corvallis Times.
