of constructive criticism, and the
Headlight appreciates the faet that
it is considered important to the
dairymen of this county in helping
them solve their problems and in
giving them the proper publicity
needed by so important an industry.
However, in defense, we must state
that we believe we have done con
siderable in this line in view of the
difficulty we have experienced in
obtaining the reliable information
that we need to make our articles
practical.
One must realize that
a small weekly newspaper eannot
afford the staff that would be nec-
essary to cover the field completely
and that we must rely mostly on the
dairymen themselves to come to us
and furnish us with the required
data. We have found it difficult to
get them to do this.
Again, we will leave it to anyone
to judge whether we are neglectful
of our duty any more so than other
papers of our size and kind in the

ANOTHER FAMOUS PRODUCT
Tillamook now has another pro
duct that is making this county
heard of in the state at least, if not
all over the United States. That is
the local company of the National
Guard.
Company K has made a remarkable
agent and the drainage specialist of
the O. A. C. extension service, in the
opinion of farmers who attended the
drainage demonstrations held recent
ly. Although most of the work was
done on individual farms one com
munity drainage ditch involves drain
age of some 50 acres of the finest
potato land in the famous Siletz val
ley. Chris Larsen, owner of part of
the 50 acres said: “My eight acres
produces nothing now, but with that
ditch in there it will be as good as
any.”—Oregon Farmer.

The Observer renews its suggest-
ion that Polk county adopt the sys-
tern of making road repairs by con
tract. Statistics from all parts of
the world show that this can be done
at half the cost if the work is done
by day labor. If repairs are by con
tract most of the work is done in the
winter, when roads need most at
tention. We hope that at least tire
present county court will try out the
contract system on a few of the im-
portant roads.—Polk County Observ

The I. W. W.’s are invading this
community, according to those who
are in position to know conditions in
the various camps. One of the wob-
blies, it is reported, has been here
for a week or two and another carie
in on the Charm last evening. He
handed out literature on the boat but
was careful to hand it to only such
persons as he thought might be like
ly sympathizers. He is said to be
the ringleader in this section.
Several members of the organiza
tion were recently arrested in other
parts of the county for circulating
literature, the arrests being made
under the criminal syndicalism act
which is a state law that makes an
outlaw of the I. W. W. organization.
The defendants have been put out
on bail. At Tillamook recently a
trial on a similar charge resulted in
a disagreement on the part of the
jury.
The wobblies here are said to be
under surveillance and if they show

THE ONE THING ABOVE ALL OTHERS THAT EVERY DEPOSITOR WANTS AND THIS BANK SEEKS TO
PROVIDE
So many things are happening these days that it isn’t safe to think you have done your best, you must know you have done it
With this thought in mind, we began to look into
the question of adding protection to our present
massive vault structure.
Upon investigation, we found that vaults protect
ed with Electric Burglar Alarms had withstood the
attack of the burglar, where physical equipment al
one would have failed.
To leave nothing undone in our effort to provide
a SAFE Safety Deposit Vault for valuable papers
and securities belonging to our customers, we have

This system is the only one that is double in every
part throughout and having triple alarms, not the
cheapest, but we believe the best obtainable.
We know our vaults are absolutely safe as every
inch of the walls, floors and ceiling is lined with
double steel plate which contains two separate and
independent electrical circuits.
The vault door is protected against working the
combination, throwing the bolts and against Blow
