FOUR-LEAVED CLOVER RARE
Plant Everywhere Considered an Omen
Of Good Luck 10 Really
Freak Growth,

Even In Druidic worship In pre-
Christian times, the trefoil leaves Of
the clover plant were symbols Of re-
ligiOn, setting forth the three grades
of Druids, Bards and NeOphites. In
Christian mythology Its leaf is fire.
Quently held to symbolic the Trinity,
and some Irish authorities insist that
1t is the true and original shamrock
which st. Patrick used to illustrate
how three separate objects. such as
leaves, could be one.
The four-leaf-clover is q freak
growth and the causes that produce
it are heredity and nutrition. After
moist season clover plants with from
four to seven leaves, and some having
only two leaves, are found. Some
plants are abnormal by heredity, and
reproduce themselves with the same
characteristics In successive years
when their environment remains the
same, external influences merely mOdi-
flying the size of the leaves.
The four-leaf clover is everywhere
held as an omen Of good luck to the
finder, partly on account Of its rarity
and partly because Of it's crosslike

MODERN CRANK CASE SERVICE

1.-THE average mOtorist," said Mr..
W. l.. Muncy, District Sales Manager
of .he Standard Oil Company, today,
knows that he should have his
crankcase cleaned every so often. but
he doesn't knew exactly why. It's
hot the most pleasant job, and he lets
it go, usually. as long as he can. Az
ter all, the reasons for keeping an
automobile crankcase clean are sim
pie, and mighty convincing.
Oil Becomes Dirty
"Lubricating systems of automO-
bi!es are almost universally of the
circulating type. The amount Of Oil
pumped always exceeds the actual
amount required for fabrication by
the bearing surfaces. The surplus
flows back to the main reservoir to
be again circulated by the pump. As
the oil circulates, and as it rests in
the crankcase, it becomes cOntami-
Dated by fuel that works past the pis-
tons, by carbon that forms on and
iaiis from the GnCrr 81 lie of TIE rls-
ton heads, by road dust that Is suck
ed in through the breather pipe. by
water. product Of combustion,
which may WORK past tno pistons and
mix with the oil and metallic parti-
cles which are the result of the wear
and tear of operation. With the first
movement of the engine the process
of oil contamination begins and it
increases as operation continues I'M
til the oil becomes charged with dirt
and loses it's fabrication value.
Change Oil at Frequent Intervals
,sy1o n
| its best, change the oil in the crank
case as often as the manufacturer 8
INSTRUCTION book says it should be
changed. However, it is not sufti-
cient to simply dram out the old oil
for that leaves deposits Of dirt and
| badly contaminated oil in the crank
case to impair Immediately the eff
cheney of the new supply of oil when
| it is poured into the crankcase. The
whole operation must be most thor
ough.
Modern Crankcasc Cleaning Service
Cleaning the crankcase is a trou-
| Elesome job to the average Llotcrjst.
| For this reason regular clearing OF
the crankcase was often neglected.
ITO remedy this condition and to
add to the Efficiency and life Of au-
toincbile engines the Standard Oil
Company is sponsoring new crank
case cleaning service, cooperating
with high class garages throughout
the Pacific Coast This new service
is indicated ON the sign that identi-
fes garages where this service is ia
be had-Modern Crank Case Clean
ing Service. The service is simple,
but according to our fabrication en-
gineers 1t is most thorough and ex,
ceedingly efficient. Just three opera
lions are necessary to give this SER
vice; drain off the old, diluted oil
flush out the cranhcase with Calol
Flushing Oil, and refill the crank
case with fresh oil of the correct
grade for the engine. It's a while
{you-wait service, too.
l. Modern Crank Case Cleaning Ser
vice is a new step toward keeping en-
gines fit for steady service; it means
obviously, better engine performance
and longer engine life.

ASK LINDEN FARMERS
TO JOIN FARM BUREAU
Executive Committee Cites Reasons
Why Every Farmer Should support
Organization

Why every farmer of Lynden will
find it profitable to join the Farm
Bureau is indicated in the following
summary of reasons prepared by the
executive committee of the county,
! /. The Farm Bureau gives you
membership in large and strong
strictly farmer-controlled organiza-
ton in your own county.
2. The Farm Bureau gives you a
representation of an every-increasing
State Farm Bureau through your
county membership.
8. The Farm Bureau gives you a
national organization known as the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
which has 43 State Federations as
members, and is supported by APP
IprOXimately 100000 American
farm families.
4. The Farm Bureau gives you a
lnon-political and non-sectarian farm
Organization which has for it's prime
purpose the organization of the farm
folks of theUnited States. for the ad-
vancement of the farming business
through a constructive program with
reference to existing associated bus
inesses and organizations which are
necessary and lawful. Its aim is to
make the business of farming better
and surer, and to free. as much as
possible, the farmers markets from
those elements of uncertainty and
unteadiness which now SO seriously
hinder profit being made on the farm.
S. The Farm Bureau gives you the
organized machinery, with specialists
in it's employ, which is enabling you
to ascertain the base and average
cost of production. without which it
is impossible to equitably state fair
price for your products.
6. The Farm Bureau gives you SER
vice for the whole family. The wom-
en- and children have a place on the
Farm Bureau program which is OF as
much value to them as are the other
services of the Farm Bureau of val
ue to the men.
Z. The Farm Bureau gives you the
opportunity of getting into nation
lal organization which has financial
resources adequate to carry on the
work that all farmers have SO long
wanted to see finished.
s. The Farm Bureau gives you the
assistance of county agents, home
demonstration agents. and boys and
girls club agents for work in your
own county and even in your own
home.
8. The Farm Bureau gives you the
united strength OF more than one mil
lion farmers of the nation, which is
indeed a power when that strength
speaks through referendum on
questions of great national policy.
10. The Farm Bureau gives you
the most complete machinery ever de-
vised by the mind of man for keep
| ing the officials in touch with the
wishes of the individual members.
Through the community chairman,
the county farm bureau presidents,
the county agents, the state fedora
ton presidents, and the national org
anization, you have an organized
machine which can convey to high
err officials the wishes of the men,
bership and can transmit to the men,
bership the findings of the officials.
