Surely these great performance qualities are
enough to account for Hudson s five years of

history, which were illustrated by
pictures chosen and cut from maga-
zines. We hope all will grow into
the attractive looking men and wo-

Refreshments were served, afte,
which tired but happy bunch went
! to their various homes, glad that they
were Juniors and could attend this
little party.

There is a big difference
between the yield Of crops
planted with an inaccurate plan
ter and one that's accurate. You
use the same amount of seed
but the difference in the crop
often amounts to as much as
FIVE. six or seven-yes, and
more bushels per acre.
Here is a point we want you
to think over: If a planter
misses only fifteen kernels in every
100 hills, there is a loss of five bushels
per acre in the yield.

An Accurate Corn Planter Is
One Of Your Best Friends

The accurate planter avoids
that loss-it proves to be one of
your best friends becauseQit does
faithful work and saves your money.
We want to show you the
John Deere No. 999 Corn
Planter-a planter that has built q
frst-class reputation because of its
accuracy. It is just as accurate as
the human hand.
You can plant two, three or
four kernels without changing
seed plates or stopping the team. You
can change from hilling to drilling in
stantly. You get nine different drill
ing distances without changing tho
plates.

BIG FUND BEING USED TO
PASS MEASURE THAT WOULD
ALMOST BANKRUPT OREGON

For the purpose Of educating people
as to the disasterous results. that would
follow the adoption of the five percent
interest bill on the ballot for the No
vember election an organization will
be formed in Umatilla county. j. "
Tallman is at present serving as head
of the committee and consulted today
with Paul Murphy who was lunch
con guest while here in the interests of
the Taxpayers League.
Mr. Murphy brought the news that
the sum of $15.000 is being expended
in the publication of an argument in
favor of the measure and is to be sent
out to 100000 people in oregon. The
exact source of the money is not
known but it is suspected that the
fund came from the Partisan
League war chest in Dakota.
The interest bill is universally op-
posed by businessmen and farmers
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1920-09-09

who understand it because its adoption
would almost abolish money lending
in Oregon. 1t is held that no money
would be available for loans in the
state at four per cent or at five per
cent which would be permitted by
contract, because much higher rates
are being paid elsewhere. High class
paper bearing eight per cent may now
be secured by anyone with money to
lend and it is pointed out that ore
gon money now used by businessmen
and farmers would be diverted into
such channels should the measure
carry.
There is some fear felt regarding
the measure on the ballot because five
per cent interest sounds attractive and
many have been found supporting the
measure in ignorance of the true ef-
fects it would have.

was an active demand for futures early
in the session, stimulated by the gov
ernment report issued after the close
yesterday which showed a reduction
of 25.000 600 bushels in the spring
wheat crop. The bulk Of the selling

ing with little desire to make specula-

Oregon Supporters of Fighting
Governor Consider His
Chances Bright; Farmers
Remember Harding's oppo-
sition.


Governor Cox, as result of appeals
rom the capital city, will deliver an
address at Salem at a, m. Monday.
| This decision was reached by the
/ democratic state committee after
telegram from the east authorizing
the additional program at Salem.
| The fighting governor from Ohio
will go to Salem Sunday evening, talk
there, and return to Portland in time
Nto leave for Boise at p. m. Monday
on the way through the state, he will
talk at The Dalles, Baker and On
tario.
Along with the decision as to the
Salem address came the announcement
from headquarters that United States
Senator George E. Chamberlain will
introduce Governor Cox at the noon
meeting in Portland. B. f. Irvine. ed
itor of the Oregon Journal. will intro
duce him at the women's meeting at
$3.50 D. m. DR.. c. J. Smith, state
chairman and former ecandidate for

sions.
These announcements followed state
ments from headquarters yesterday
that Oregon will be thoroughly cover

Cox Chances Bright.
At the meeting of county chairmen
in Portland. the Cox chances for vic
tory in Oregon were declared to be
bright The upstate men based their
declarations on Cox's fight for
League of Nations, on the opposition
of farmers and labor to Harding, and
on the progressive tendencies of the
Ohio governor. They'd pronounce
sentiment as strongly favoring the
league. The people of the state, the /
county men declared, want war ended,
they don't want to maintain huge ar
mics and navies in time of peace, and
they don't want to forever pay war
taxes. ,
Harding Opposed Farmers.
The farmers of the state will not
forget Harding's opposition to the
farm loan system, and his stand in
iavor of dollar wheat. the upstate
men declared, and the farmers of Ore
