Silage reduces the amount of hay
required in feeding rations by one
third. Results show that two pounds
of silage is equal to one pound of
hay in feeding value. Two tons of
silage can be put into the silo cheap
er generally than one ton of hay can
be put into the stack. The Union ex-

How The Master Driver
Became Master Tire Builder

TN 1903, driving the 1893" racing
car. BarneJ Cldheld started his
career Of victories that later
earned him the title of Master
Driver Of The World" To over
come the tire weaknesses that made
racing difficult and dangerous, he
studied tires specified materials
supervised construction.
Today, Barney Oldfeld is known
as the Master Tire Builder"
Starting with the crude tires which
carried the 1893" one mile in sixty
seconds, Oldheld gradually de-
velopec his famous Cords-a set of
which covered 500 miles at eighty
eight miles an hour without
change.
In three years Oldheld tires have
won every important race on Amer
ican speedways. They are the only
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1922-07-31

American tires that have ever taken
first place in the French Grand Prix.
They have won for three consecu-
tive years in the 500-mile Indian
apolis Sweepstakes. So far in 1922,
Oldfields have lowered four Worlds
Records and seven track records.
The Wichita Test Run gave evil
'dence of Oldfeld superiority in tour
ing-when set of four Cords COW
cred 34,525 miles over rutted, frozen,
winter roads--a performance at
tested by the Mayor Of Wichita.
See your dealer and get set of
these rugged tires that Barney Old
field has developed and perfected
through lifetime of practical tire
experience. Their performance will
convince you that they are "The
Most Trustworthy Tires Built"

CUCUMBER BOATS NIFTY,
OTHER WAYS TO SERVE

TO make cucumber boat pare the
cucumbers and slit lengthwise. Hol-
low out each half and refill it with a
| salad mixture of equal parts diced Gu
I cumbers, celery and tomato, with
! mayonaise dressing. From white let
J ter paper cut small sail and insert
| it in skewer or any small piece of
| clean wood. Put the sail in the center
! Of the boat.
SO many cucumbers are now grow
! ing on the vine that the o. A. C. farm
news man asked the home economic
specialists to tell him how to tell the
editors how to tell their readers how
to make present and future use of
| them The foregoing and following
! were among the many ways suggest
cd:
How to Salt 'Iam Down
Have ready perfectly clean jar,
crock or keg. Use only good firm, Gu
cumbers, not too large and cut them
from the vine with "A pair of scissors
leaving about 1-2 inch stem on each.
Never pull from vine and always han
die them so carefully as not to bruise
them. Wash clean and wipe dry. Put
u 9 or layer of coarse salt in the bot
tom of the keg, then a layer of close
ly packed cucumbers, cover with salt
and proceed in this way until all the
cucumbers are used, stopping off with
q layer of salt, and over that layer of
freshly picked grape leaves.
Use plenty of salt. Pour in cold
hard water Ato cover. Put a clean
psrl, -,
the edges snugly down the sides, then
put in an inverted plate or a hard
wood board to fit and weight it down
with large lean stone, to keep the
cucumbers well under the brine.
Cover the ke9 and set-in cool
place. Cucumbers may be added from
time to time as they are gathered
with more salt until the crock is full.
BE careful always to keep the cucum-
bers well under the brine and if there
should be too much brine throw some
of it away
When removing cloth, plate and
stone, do so carefully and if any scum
has gathered WASH thoroughly before
returning to the crock. When the
pickles are wanted for table use, take
out enough to last Nabout one week,
freshen them in clear cold water
baths until they are plump and just
right to the taste, changing the water
frequently and tasting d pickle occa--
sionally to see If it is too salty.
The pickles are then ready-to be put
in cold vinegar with any preferred
spices and in about 10 hours or less
they will be ready for use. A small
bunch of dill put in the vinegar i'm
parts a delightful flavor. Cover the
jar and set in a cool place.

WARD COUNTY MAN RETURNS
FROM MISSOURI TO REMAIN

Chas. E. Coffey and family, who left
Minot year ago, for Colorado, ar
rived in Minot Sunday night on their
way to their former home in Des Lacs
where they will reside. Mr.. Coffey
left North Dakota on account Of his
health, but declares that he feels bet
ter right here. He operated a gro
cery store in Colorado, but sold out
and few weeks ago returned to his
native state, expecting to spend the
rest of his days at Stanberry, Mo-,
his old home.
"Let me tell you that l have come
back to North Dakota to stay" Mr..
Coffey said to an Independent repre-
sentative. 1.-TWO weeks ago Sunday
night we were all nearly drowned out
in Missouri. 1t rained ID inches in
ID hours at Stanberry, Gentry coun-
ty,. and short distance north 16
inches was. reported. The lowlands
were all flooded out. Bridges were
swept away. Corn which was in tas-
sci was washed out and thousands Of
acres of grain in shock were washed
away. Many lives were lost One
farmer lost 1000 chickens. Many lost
their hogs. One man lost $50 hogs.
Many cattle were lost in the flood.
1AS IlVeIS were TWO niles Wlue ana
the great big fishes came up into the
little streams. The flood ruined many
farmers.
"The wheat is not very good, while
some of it averaged 22 bushels per
acre, it had to be cut when the ground
was wet and there are solid cakes
Of mud in the bottom of the bundles" !"
Mr.. Coffey said the coal shortage
is keenly felt in Missouri already. The
train which carried him from St. Joe
to Kansas City had to stop when the
engine died. When he left Missouri
last Saturday the thermometer regis
tered 105 degrees in the shade. Mr..
Coffey owns property at Des Lacs and
will soon hang out his shingle as an
auctioneer.
