P. H. Kuduer of tho l.'old Creek Mill
ing Co., incorporated, writes of a trip
up the. Little .North Fbrk that every
auto tourist and ' others should . take
next summer. This is a fisherman -s
paradise, with mountain se.enerv as a
setting, and with interesting things to
see all along the road. Mr. Kudner
says in part:

MAXWELL MAKES
GREAT SPEED RUN
ACROSS MICHIGAN
Jp the face of impossible road con
ditions, a stock Maxwell touring car,
driven by Ray McXnmnra, established
a remarkable record tho day following
election day, when it pounded its way
across Michigan, from Detroit to Kala
mazoo and return, in nino heurs and
forty-five minutes. The speedometer
registered 330 miles when the car was
checked in at Detroit at tho conclusion
of the run. The irvcrngo ' speed wus
35.9 miles an hour.
Tho route taken follows: Detroit to
Lansing, Lansing to Clrand iinpids,
Cirnnd Itapids to Kalamazoo, Kalama
zoo to Untile Creek,, Baftlo Creek to
Jackson, Jacksou to Detroit. The run
was officially observed and checked by
Detroit newspaper men. ,
Carries Election News.
No mechanical trouble was encounter
ed, despite tho t'uet that the car endured
a terirfic pounding on long stretches
of rough road. The only stop made on
the long trip was at Kalamazoo, where
gasoline nnd oil were taken on. -
Ilesides establishing a remarkable re
cord for speed and efficiency, tho Max
well car took on itself t&e duties of a
courier, carrying the news of the elec
tion results to tho rural districts of
Michigan. '
In bold, white letters, the body of
the car carried the announcement that
Prohibition had carried in Michigan,
And that Sleeper had bee elected gov
ernor of the state.
The uncertainty in the returns on the
presidential election niado it impossible
to announce the winner.
All along the line nnd in the cities
and towns through which the Maxwell
courier passed there wns tremendous
interest in the returns. "
Believed Mark Will Stand. -
More than fifty per cent of the rond
was in tho worst possible shape for
touring. There were deep ruts, of fresh
gravel. In several places it wus neces

construction work- In view of these
adverse conditions, it is believed the
record made by McXamnrn and his
Maxwell will endure.- ' - r
Tho start was made fom Detroit at
3:15 a. ni. and the car was checked into
Detroit, at 1 p. m. just nine hours and
forty minutes after the run started.
This rub was made following a sweep

The Faclf to International-. livestock
Exposition, which holds its Sixth annu
al show at the Portland tTnionJStoei:
ynrdsj: North Portland, December "4th
to 9th, has been one of the. big factors
in the upbuilding of the livestock in
dustry erf this entire western country. -
Entries which have just closed in the
breeding classes indicate one of the
biggest showings of beef breeds ever
handled west of the Rocky mountains,
there being something like fifteen herds
of fthorthorns on the list. The Here
ford people have a very select list of
entries, including some of the beet
known herds in the United States- The
Holstein people have outdone themsel
ves in their entries, while the Guern-
eeys and Jerseys will be represented by
me oest Known Dreeclers on the coast.
Hogs and sheep will make a fine show
ing, and for the first time, the four
leading breeds of draft horses will be
included.
Judges o'f national reputation will
tic the ribbons. Men like Saunders of
Iowa, on shorthorns; Cliarles L. Hill of
Wisconsin, Jerseys and Guernseys; Mos

handling the other classes.
VJreat Interest Shown.
The granges of Oregon, Washington
and Idaho ore taking an intense inter
est iij this year's show and strong dele
gations will come from over this west
ern countrv.
Tho governors of the northwest states
have accepted 'nn invitntion to be at
the show on Thursday, December 7th,
ami their many friends willJiave an op
portunity to meet them in an informal
way. Afterwards they will attend the
banquet given in honor of the breeders

Various breed associations are hold
ing their annual meetings during this
week and Portland will be thronged
with farmers and livestock men.
The action of the State Bankers' as
sociation iu uppi(4uiating $10,000 'for
this show is attracting attention all
over the United States and nt 'once
places them in "very high estimation
amongst the breeding fraternity of this
country. Portland Chamber of Com

One of the big features of the show
this year will be the fat classes in the
stock yurds proper. Eoch year has
demonstrated the fact that tho west can
produce some of the finest cattle, hogs
and sheep in' the country. Competition
will be very keen this year.
In order to house the show, the en
tire barn and pen room of the Union
Stock Yards, together with eight mam
moth tents will be required.: The main
tent is 100x200 while the others are 50x
200. This is housing the show in a sim

and English shows, which have flourish
ed for many generations.
' A very important feature in connec

sales of breeding stock. On Tuesday

offering of Guernsey cattle from Edge

nfternoon there will be a combination

OFFICERS AND MEN
Privates Get $3.75 a Month
Captains Pull Down $500
-Pay of Others
The public its general is of the opin
ion that officers of the state military
companies receive 25 per. cent of that
received by officers in the regular army,
and consequently local military men in
the state are over zealous in recruiting.
While the recent law does give the cap
tain of a state military company $500 a
year, yet out of this amount, he must
pay for his own equipment in the way
of uniforms, arms and ield equipment,
and moreover, must be responsible for
all property issued to his company. The
first lieutenant receives $240 and the
second lieutenant $200, but from these
yearly salaries, the lieutenants must
equip themsolves with uniforms, arms
and field equipment. , Enlisted men re
ceive owerfourth of the pay of the
regular army men. They receive free
from the government all-equipment, uni
forms and arm A corporal under the
new law receives $5.10 a month; first
sergeants $11.25 a month and mess nnd
and duty sergeants $7.50 a month. Even
the private is remembered by the gov
ernment, as he receives $3.75 a month
and a first class private $-1.20. These
figures apply to those joining Company

it. With the new large radiator and enclosed fan, steam- .
