STUDEBAKER AGAIN
 WINS THE PRIZE

After three days of bueking the snow drifts and dynamiting fallen trees that blocked the roads, a Stude- baker Big-Six, led the way into the Yosemite Valley, thereby winning the Yosemite National Park Company's cup for the first car In 1922 to make Its way over any of the three roads that lead Into the Valley from the Pacific coast
 Last year another studebaker was the first to penetrate the Valley.
 The Yosemite National Park com pany awards this trophy to the first car of the season that breaks It's way into the valley under touring condi- tions,
 The start was made from Modesto, California at midnight on Thursday. May and the Bix-Six crew reached Wawona at o'clock Friday morning.
 From this point on. the car charged snow drifts and the crew dynamited trees until they arrived in the Valley on the afternoon of May [, after con- tinuous day and night travelling. At Bishop Creek snow between i've and six feet deep was encountered At no time did the party resort to rope, block or tackle,
 The return trip was almost as diff cult as the one going in, as two foot snow had fallen again blocking the road. The trip at this season of the year always has its thrills and perils and is test of the power of cars and the endurance of drivers alike. One of the greatest difficulties is to find the trail over the snow-c covered roads.

which makes the agricultural paper

instead OF three, Should be OF ma
terial assistance to cooperative mark
citing associations IN financing the or
derby marketing Of crops"
Acceptances Of six months have
been asked for by many agricultural
organizations and the longer period
is believed by officials to accord more
nearly with the turnover period re-
quired by the farmers to market
crops for whose production they hare
borrowed money.
The ruling requires that the accep-
tances be secured by warehouse re-
ceiptB covering the products against
which the acceptances are drawn. II
Is in line with policy announced
some time ago by the board which
made eligible for re-discount accept
ances drawn to finance domestic stor-
age of commodities pending their
marketing.
Agricultural paper Of this character
is placed by the ruling on parity
with acceptance drawn against ex'
ports and imports which have been
extended from three to six months.
Officials explained that the six
months limitation was az far rs the
board could go under existing law
