at the family home in Minneapolis, and

nusual this time. He brought back
with him Mrs. Jones from the old home
town on Long Island, II is now head
of the household in their new home on
Seventh street. This is a quite sudden
Transformation for a man of Professor
Jones standing, but 1t has appeared
that single blessedness has lost its
charm for him some time since; so his
new departure was not so surprising.
Faculty and students are ready to for
l give him for getting married in term
time and extend their heartiest congra-
tulations to the happy couple n are
glad to welcome them to the family
circle.

Thousands and thousands of gallons
of auto oil have been sold by the
magic of the words "non-carbon."
Recall the statement in your chen-
istry when you were in the high
school, which ran something like
this: Carbon Is a product Of COM
bustion." The avs Of nature do not
change and that statement is just
as true today as it was when you
were a boy. When the gasoline ex-
plodes in the cylinder Of your cal,
the intense heat burns some Of the
oil and the result Of the burning Of
the gasoline and motor Oil is carbon.
It is utterly impossible to prevent
more or less carbon deposits, sooner
or later, in any gasoline motor, be-
cause combution, by the very ma
ture of things. produces carbon.
Combustion also produces the power
which drives the motor. The motor
must also be oiled and when the
gasoline and oil Burn, more or less
carbon, naturally n necessarily, is
pr~ecipitated.
French Auto Oil contains the least
possible amount G5-100 of 1 per
cent? of carbon. consistent with the
proper noun Of fabrication.
It has just lately been discovered in
the scientific world that from so to
j Is per cent of the carbon deposits in
automobile motors is caused by the
gasoline. The proportion of auto oil
H to gasoline used is very, very small
hence the greater proportion Of
carbon from the gasoline.

be more miles OF good roads complet-
ed during the year 1915 than during
the past twenty-five years In this
country. No voice Is heard against
the need Of good roads. We have
long since past the argumentatiye

roads. Had this good work been
started ten years ago in Umstilla

was not commenced until about three
years ago.

Of oregon except Multnomah and
Umatilla- Umatilla is one OF the
richest counties in the state. outside
Multnomah county and here the levy
for road purposes Is only two and
one-half mills. none Of which Is taxed
against the property in Pendleton.
The county court Of Umatilla coun-
ty deserves the unstinted praise and
commendation OF every farmer and
taxpayer in the county for what they
have accomplished during the past
two years. They have not OF course
with their small appropriation. been
able to build a good road to every
part OF the county at once. but they
have made a good start and II they
get half the support and encourage
ment 20 which they are justly en-
titled, we viii see the good work go
on and in few years other roads will
be completed TO other parts OF the
county.
During the past four years the
court here has constructed about 25
miles OF the best macadam roads in
the northwest had a talk last
week with a prominent citizen OF
Walla waliA who has made the trip
20 Spokane several times this summer
BY automobile and he said that the
Umatilla county roads were the best
stretches that he has Travelled over.
II is true that there are some holes
along the road in places, which viii

whole. the road Is a good one and

It is appreciated by the many who
use II constantly. In this connection
want 10 caII attention TO an edito-
rial that appeared in q local paper
here a few days ago concerning this

was made that this road was practi-
cally worthless. and that the lower

ditions the dividends usually ran near
forty millions a year
The weak point in the showing is
that it is an effort to prove that many
different concerns engaged in one
line Of business can operate as eff
ciently as can one central company
or trust This is directly at variance
with all the old familiar arguments
about the savings brought about by
combinations. In the trust forming
days this point was emphasized with
great force every day in the year in
an effort TO Justify trust building.
The statement was logical and was
generally accepted as true. the only
doubt being regarding whether the
public or the trust would obtain the
benefits Of that saving and il the pub
lie received any OF the benefits
whether they were sufficient 70 make
up for the wen known evils OF mo-
nopoly.
Now the contention is made that a

festly at disadvantages can make
more money than It could when on
the so-called efficiency basis and the

that this very thing is done in Canada
where the inspection plan is in vogue.
Ii is asserted the inspectors viii grade
wheat low when it is being sold by
farmers and that wheat purchased at
second grade prices will be sold
abroad as first grade.
Whether those charges are true or
not it is clear that such abuses could
arise very easily. Through handling"
the inspection bureau the brokers
could work a systematic swindle up
on the growers and there would be
no recourse. Under the present plan
Of testing grain the farmer has the
advantage Of competition between diff

his wheat too low the farmer can
turn to a different buyer and obtain
justice. Thus competition serves as
a lever for the protection Of the far

a plan OF state inspection and the
