COLUMBIA ELECTRIC MOTORS, INC.
RALPH'S MACHINE SHOP & MOORAGE
Oldsmobile—International Truck
Sales & Service
General Machine Work Boats and Motors For
Rent — Outboard Motor Repairing
Handling light and heavy duty
International trucks as well as the
new 1953 Oldsmobile cars. Columbia
Electric Motors, Inc., whose presi­
dent is Arche R Duncan, is located
in St Helens at 1421 Columbia
Blvd.
No adjusting or repair on an auto­
mobile is more delicate or requires
more careful technical skill than
adjustment to the electrical sys­
tem-starting, lighting and ignition,
and the storage battery. This com­
pany was organized to handle in an
expert manner just such delicate
work.
No automobile owner wants to take
a chance on his starting, lighting
and ignition system. Anyone can
grease the car, fill it with gas and
oil or even make minor adjustments,
but the electrical system must be
entrusted only to an expert.
It is a policy of this shop that no
piece ot work must leave the shop
which does not give satisfaction to
the user. This is an exacting demand
for the establishment to make on
itself, but its management believes
that it pays in the long run.
If you feel that your car is not
exactly in adjustment, perhaps the
fault is with the electric system.
To find out whether it is or not,
they invite you to bring your car
around.
One of the experts employed at
the shop will look it over and tell
you whether any part of the elec­
trical system needs adjustment, free
of charge. No charge will be made
for this service, and it does not ob­
ligate you in any way to have any
repairs which may be needed, made
at this shop.
It is a tribute to this shop that
manufacturers of many standard
makes of automobiles have made
this shop the official starting, light­
ing and ignition service station for
their cars.
A greater tribute to the shop,
however is the way in which the
work of this shop has increased since
it was started. Time and again ad­
ditions to the corps of workmen
have been necessary to take care
of the work brought in. The service
is yours for the asking
The manager of this shop knows
his business from A to Z. This up-
to-date concern not only conducts
their business for the service of the
public, but is interested in every
project for the people as a whole.

that improvements have been made
from time to time until today they

Feeds - Seeds - Poultry and Dairy Supplies
Managed by W A. Ramage. Mid­
Columbia Cooperative Assn is lo­
cated in St. Helena at 124 N. High­
way. They hand]? feeds, seeds, farm
machinery as well as gas and oil.
To make two blades of grass grow
where only one grew before is con­
sidered a great achievement and will
always bring high commendation tn
him who accomplishes this feat.
Agriculture is of course the nation’s
foundation, but there are many other
things so closely allied with agricul­
ture that each is indispensable to
the other. We refer particularly to
the livestock.
Until recent years man tilled his
crops more or less assiduously ac­
cording to his individual ambitions,
but allowed his live stock to get
along as best it could with the feeds
afforded by nature of those most
easily raised by man. As a conse­
quence poultry and all kinds of
stock were subjected to many dieas­
es and all of them showed the effects
of undernourishment at their critical
growing time.
When the great scientists began
experimenting in the East and North
to find a way to raise better strains
they opened up a field of vast pos­
sibilities. It was found that even the
common breeds of fowls and animals
could be greatly improved and econ­
omy affected by certain foods that
varied with the seasons, climate and
purposes for which the stock was
raised. Laying chickens require cer­
tain food elements for market eggs,
or perhaps another for hatching.
Young chicks need some other
stimulus that will tide them over
the dangerous time they must all
go through.
Dairy herds should be given the
proper feed to produce the greatest
amount of butter fat if the herd is
expected to make a profit, Just as
horses and mules need a balanced
diet to render the maximum service
without injury to their constitution.
To meet the requirements of the
changing times great mills have
sprung up over the oountry.
As a home institution we should
be proud of their achievements.
Their success depends on their put­
ting out the most dependable pro­
ducts, and Ln doing this they are
adding immeasurably to the value of
the farms of our great state. It is
our duty to aid every possible way
all institutions that have to do with
the improvement of our farm out­
put.
