The Old and New
Methods

The New Coffield Water
Power Washing Machine
has a larger and more power
full motor that does the work
in less time.
1t requires very little
water pressure to operate
successfully 49, less. IN fact,
than any other pow er
washer made.
The larger motor gives a
longer stroke and Il more
complete turn to the dashcr,
which results in a quicker
and more thorough washing,
and on account of the in
creased power, you can wash
more pieces at one time.
The price of the New Cof-
field is $500 on the easy
payment plan or $3.50 if
paid for WITHIN 80 days after
delivery.
Another feature that
should appeal to you IS the
Coffield Service Plan
maintaining a repair depot
here for the convenience OF
Coffield users in Wheeling
and surrounding towns,
where an expert repairman
is always at your beck and
call, with a complete stock
of all parts on hand.

Oregon Institutions
Conserve Wheat Flour

, R. B. Goodin, secretary of the board
Of control, is rather proud of the fact
that Oregon is one of the first states
in the union to not only go $3.50 on
the amount Of wheat flour used in the
state institutions, but to go one bet
Ter.
In conference a few days ago with
W. B. Aver, federal food administrator
for Oregon, Mr.. Goodin told the food
administrator that the board of CON
troll which formerly ordered 2SOO bar
rels of wheat flour for the state instr
buttons at Salem as the semi-annual
order was not using even half that
amount now. As a substitute, flours OF
ahe following were ordered: barley,
oats, rice, Irish potato, sweet potato,
buelzwheat, farina, Roman meal and
Milo flour.
Mr.. Aver was so pleased with the
action of the board Of control in living
up to the situation that he at once
wired the facts to the U. ). food ad'
ministration in Washington. Today he
received O letter from Washington in
which it was Stated that the q. 5. food
administration was well pleased with
the action of the state officials OF
Oregon as it Indicated they appreciat'
ed the situation. Also that many states
felt themselves above the law and
were notinclined to go $3.50 for the
state institution supplies. Oregon
has the right spirit" the federal food
administration wrote.

triotic grounds, supplemented by the
hope that it may assist in unifying the
party and insure the election from

ed States senator
Formal announcement Of Senator
Huston's retirement from the senate
rial contest was made by him in re-
sponse to a letter from S. Benson, Ben
Selling, John McCourt, Stanley Jewett
and more than 30 other prominent re-
pubIicans, who suggested the advisa-
bbiIity Of his withdrawal as 3 candi-
date. These republicans based their
proposal on the grounds Of party uni
lty, pointing out that if Senator Hus-
ton should decide TO withdraw it would
leave the field, as far as the republi-
