USED JAR DEMAND| BEEN EXCEPTIONAL
December Proved A Period At Mccormack Brothers
 Motor

The month of December proved an exceptional month for the used car department of Mccormack Bros Mo tor company. In speaking of this fact, Bill" Pape, sales manager, made the following remark:
 Our whole organization was sur- prised to learn. upon checking mp the business for the month of De- cember. that our used car sales had exceeded in number the new car sales. This is contrary to custom for this time of the year. and ii Is pretty good evidence that the pub lie appreciates our business policies
 we believe we are the only ceal- CTS who sold more used cars than new ones in December. and it is grat- flying to know that the used car buyer is learning that it pays to buy a used car from a dealer who is sin cerely interested in seeing him satis- fled with the car he buys We have tried to give every one of our cus- toners full value for the money they paid for their used cars and we be lieve we have done it
 "A used car is just as sound an investment as a new one if it is bought at a fair price and if its true condition is known to the purchaser used cars in December was because we have earned the reputation for reliability and fair dealing"

New Balloon Tires
By BARNEY OLDFIELD

Copyright 1924, by King Features
 Syndicate, Inc.)
 It was not until few weeks ago that the tire manufacturers knew what balloon tires were going to be like. Every manufacturer. Good rich, Goodyear, U. S.. Hewitt and the others prominent in balloon tire de- velopment wondered what sizes to make. No one questioned that these new tires would take the country by storm, but to change over factory equipment and then fipd out that the the standards would be wasting a lot of money. The Rubber associa- tion, which Is composed of the inn portant tire makers, got together and here Is what they decided on for balloon tires: pEvrn

Short Cuts In Hay Harvest

The piling up of the labor peak
from hay harvest, corn cultivation and
small grain harvest has been In.
creased in the last few years because
of farm labor shortage and more clo-
yer and alfalfa crops. These legume
crops demand fast and proper han
ding If full value is to be gotten from
them. Those farmers having tractors
are hooking up two or more mowers,
side delivery rakes, hay leaders, wag-
ons for hauling hay from field to barn,
etc. Wider cutting mowers are also
in order. Where storage in the barn
is the rule, the hooking of two OF
more loads of hay behind the tractor
for hauling distances from field tc
farm has proved an economy. Baling
the hay on moving wagon as II
comes from the hay loader is prac
ticed by one ingenious Kansas farmer
the tractor pulling the outfit. This
permits big saving in hay from Il
to 33 per cent, as it can all go int
the barn instead of being stacked out

Ptomaine Poisoning Is
Warm Weather Danger

CHICAGO. - Shooting pains, dane
ing over the abdomen like sheet
on the horizon, are not al
ways the fault Of canned food In
fact, most cases of ptomaine poison
ing, says the National Association Of
Ice Industries, have no connection
with the consumption Of canned food.
Warm weather" says an announce
ment, marks the approach OF the
ptomaine season. Despite the warn
ings of health officers and family ply
sicians, there is legion OF house
wives who do not properly guard their
food supplies. Then when member
Of the family falls Ill OF ptomaine an
outcry is raised, and usually directed
at the wrong source.
Foods tainted from being kept In
temperatures that are too high are
almost invariably the cause of these
disorders Of the digestive organs. A
poor refrigerator, perhaps warped
that preserves neither Ice nor food;
an overstuffed ice box that Is permit
ted to run low; a refrigerator with
blanketed ice that prevents free cir
culation of cooling air; these are the
inevitable sources of digestive trou
bles. Without increasing her ice bill
the judicious housewife can safeguard
the health of the family"

Page Memorial School
Endorsed by President

NEW YORK-In the belief of that
enlightenment of the understanding
Of all men" is the best way to discover
and remove the causes of war, Presi-
dent Coolidge has approved the pro-
jected Walter Hines Page School Of
International Relations in statement
to the committee Charles e. Hughes,
secretary of state, and Herbert Hoo
ver secretary of the department of
commerce, have also Endorsed the
school, which is proposed as a me-
mortal to the great American states
man and diplomat.
walter Hines Page was a great
Citizen" President Coolidge declares
in his letter Of approval Of the prof.
ect. Ellis life was spent. to make his
country the best country in the world.
He labored to uplift the common man.
He fought for clean government and
for equal opportunity for all. He be.
lieved that education was the key to
democracy. Finally, he gave his life
for his country, killed by overwork
as American ambassador at London
during the war. Such life as his
should be held up as a model to all
generations. 1t is therefore fitting that
distinguished Americans Of all politics
and of all creeds have banded together
to erect permanent memorial to him.
And it is most fitting that this memo
rial should be school of international
affairs that shall seek to discover and
remove the causes of war by enlight-
eminent of the understanding Of all
ment. This movement has my cordial
Endorsement"
Secretary Hoover declares that a
school of international relations is an
appropriate memorial for one who
worked all his life for the ideal of in
ternational good will, and died for It,
"Walter Hines Page was a humani-
tartan above all else" he points out.
Ills interest was in people. He la
bored for the happiness of others, and
in the most practical ways. He be-
lieved that they must have education,
health, and enough means to rise
above the wholly material thoughts of
life. For the opportunity of all men
to know and have these things he
worked INCREASINGLY. Then he be-
lieved in democracy: an equal share
and an equal duty in the common life.
And he believed in international good
will. He worked all his life for these
ideals, and he died for them.
The most appropriate memorial to
him is an educational institution, be-
cause it too will work and will further
the things he worked for. The pro-
posal of school of international af-
fairs, to be named for him, is just
such an appropriate memorial"

Forestry Students Are
Busy on Research Work

| MOSCOW, Ida.-The entire faculty
and most of the student body of the
school of forestry, University Of Ida
no, are occupied this summer in some
phase of forestry work in the fields
of Idaho or other Northwestern
states.
Dean f. G. Miller is gathering data
for an extensive report on THE For
est Resources of Idaho," which will
require two or three field seasons to
complete. He expects to spend the
present summer in gathering data on
the status Of the timber lands of the
I university, which are quite extensive.
Dr. Henry Schmitz, professor of for
est products, is to have general super
vision of the white pine blister rust
eradication campaign being waged in
the state in cooperation with the fed
eral government, and he expects to
spend large part Of the summer in
| the field himself He has a party of
six students of forestry in southern
Idaho working on the eradication of
cultivated black currants, while still
another government party of 100 men
is engaged in the eradication of wild
currants and gooseberries in the Kan
iksu National Forest in northwestern
Idaho. The blister rust, n deadly NAL
ady to white pine, has not yet ap
peared in the state, but it undoubted-
ly will appear in the Idaho white pine
in the spread of the disease is that
it appears to spread only through an
intermediate transmission of black
currant or gooseberry bushes to other
pine trees.
G. w. Watson, assistant professor
Of silviculture, and II. |. Nettleton, in
structor in forestry, and r. G. Whea,
ton, graduate assistant, are occupied
in growth studies of white pine left
after logging operations to determine
how soon the logger may return for
a second cut This work was started
last summer, and will continue for
several field seasons.
Students Of the school OF forestry
are scattered throughout the Pacific
Coast states and Alaska, although
most Of them are working in the Ida
no forests. They not only acquire
practical experience in their work
but earn considerable part Of their
collegiate expenses in this manner
The demand for forestry students this
summer was far in excess of the sup.
ply, according to Dean Miller
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1924-07-11
LONGEST TRAIN OF SHINGLES
TRAVELS ACROSS THE CONTINENT

The longest trainload of shingles
ever transported across the American
continent left the Pacific Coast this
week, travelling over the Great North
ern Railway on its journey to Eastern
markets. This train consisted of 1875
freight cars, measuring more than a
mile in length. 1t required three
mammoth mountain type oil burning
engines to haul this remarkable con-
signment Of roofing material. There
are enough shingles in this lot to roof
the houses of town of 10000 people.
The train attracted considerable at
tention en- route, and motion pictures
were taken of it's movement for use in
the news weekles throughout the
country.
During 1923 nearly a billion cedar
logs were cut in the forests of Wash

COOPERATIVE CONCERN
SHOWS HEALTHY GROWTH

Only one other cooperative farm
marketing in the state shows better
condition, w. H. White Of Olympia,
representing the State Department of
Agriculture, told the members Of the
Seattle Milk Shippers Association re-
Gently.
The association report for the six
months from December 1, 1928, to
May 81, 1924, showed net gain in
assets Of $12,s29.O1. The total cash
on hand is $46,052.sS, of which $780,
244.15 is in plant fund. That, said
Mr.. White, is pretty good showing.
One of the principal issues before
the meeting was the question Of CO.
operating with other dairy market or
CARNATIONS, particularly those in
Pierce and Snohomish counties. Like
the fruit marketing organizations,
the dairy associations found them
selves on the verge Of competition
that might prove detrimental to all
concerned. To prevent such con
t1ngency ana Drlng ABOUT CLOSET Gu
operation for the benefit Of the mem
bers of all dairy marketing associa
tons, the milk shippers authorized
the appointment Of committee to
confer with the Snohomish and
Pierce County associations.
Because Of the uncertain condition
Of the Seattle milk market, high price
of feed and short pasture, 1t was the
! opinion of a great majority of the
members that some change in the re
lations of the Seattle Milk Shippers
Association and other organization
must be brought about. The discus
sion covered wide range and in sew
eral instances became personal ant
one or two situations that might have
resulted in blows were narrowly
averted.
No action was taken affecting mill
prices.
About 200 of the $50 members o.
the association were present. Tit
next meeting will be held the las
Saturday in July.

ington and British Columbia and used
in the manufacture Of shingles.
If the shingles in this single train
were laid end for end, they would
reach from Seattle to Portland, Me.
The trees from which the shingles
are made grow to an enormous size,
often measuring eight and ten feet in
diameter.
Two thousand years ago many of
the red cedar trees now growing along
the Pacific Coast in Washington we're
young giants Of the forest. In those
days the Pacific Coast Indians appre-
ciated the value of the red cedar for
use in making their gigantic war ca
noes, some of which were 70 to 80
feet long. The Indians know this
wood to be impervious to weather
rot, insects and the disintegrating
processes of nature

SUBSIDIARY ELECTRIC
CONCERNS ARE MERGED


Unification Of various important
subsidiary interests with the parent
organization Is announced by Presi-
dent A. w. Leonard Of the Puget
Sound Power & Light Company. The
company now operates directly in Its
own name from the Canadian line
through all the Puget Sound territory
southwark and across the Cascades
into the Wenatchee Valley.
Three subsidiary companies &C.
quired within the last two years pass
out of existence as separate organi-
cations under the new plan. These
are the Washington Coast Utilities,
operating electric light and other
service in various cities Of the state,
including Wenatchee, Arlington,
Stanwood, Edmonds, Elma and Mon
tesano; the North Coast Power Com
pany, operating various properties in
the southern part of Washington, In
Guiding Kelso, Chehalis, Vancouver
and in Northern Oregon; and the
Olympia Light &c Power Company, in
Guiding light, power and street rail
way service in Olympia.
According to Mr.. Leonard's an
nouncement, the various cities here
tofore served by these three com
panies now will be assigned to the
six districts under which the Puge
Sound Power & Light Company Is op
, Grating.
! This new alignment, they believe
will prove beneficial to the interests
OF almost one hundred thousand Gus
toners and the three-quarters OF
million people less directly served by
their various operations.
