Get Ready For Spring

Now is the time when you should
plan how much better you are going to
make the garden for the, new year than
your last year garden.
Get the secdmen's catalogs, which
they have ready to send you on applica-
ton. and plan your work Systematically
right away, s2 that when the time for
planting comes you will know just
how you are going about it.
You can't have a perfectly success

forehand. Ii you don't get out your
planting scheme now and have it re-
corded on paper, you may be too busy
to do it properly later.

Explosiea Dess Ceasiissahl1
Da,naRe

An explosion which was fortunate
to the extent that it might have bsen
considerably more serious occurred At
the residence Of Ar. E. F. Clayton last
Friday morning. Mr.. Clayton started
lire in the range in his kitchen not
knowing that the water pipes hsd fro
zen. which caused the water jaeket
to explode. Mr.. Clayton just . mo-
ment before the explosion had been
standing near the front Of the stove
and was just about to pass into the
pantry. being just behind the door
when the range blew up with tre-
mendous force causing great deal Of
damage.
The front of the range blew out. the
front of the water jacket striking the
window casing some feet from the
stove with sufficient force to break
the casing. studding and siding. oil
the window glass in the kitchen win
dows were demolished, every foot of
the walls. ceiling and floors Of the kit
chen were covered with SCOT and steam
the stove was completely destroyed.
the force was so strong that it opened
the door into the dining room. blowip9
sparks into the dining room setting fire
to the rug and other parts Of the room.
practically all of the china in the china
closet and on the sideboard was des-
troyed. large hole was cut through
the plaster between the joist over the
range as well ss one could have dons
it with a chisel, One Of the. freaks of
the explosion was that when Mr., Clay
ton commenced to take invoice a. to
the extent of the damage he found
that the dishes which had been blown
from the sideboard and china closet
were underneath the rug in the din
ing room, it is supposed that the force
was 20 great that it blew the rug into
the air. that the dishes were thrown
to the floor and that the rug fell back
into its place.
1t seems almost Il miracle that Mr.,
Clayton was not at least seriously in
jured and would have been had the
explosion occurred moment before.
The financial loss is considerable and it
is an experience that no one would
want to pass through second time.

The State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, Mrs. Mary c. Bradford,

Many of those teachers and students

A stsry Il Growth s.l Pr.sre.s.

oSsy ~ WtOWto - UUs
Norval A. Hawkins. sales manager
of the Ford Motor Company. has just
related = wonderful story of the
growth and progress Of his company.
a part OF which We furnish our read
ers herewith.
In February they had 4 business of
$4,000. 900. more than twice the busi-
ness Of the Grand Trunk Railway. and
paid out little less than $1,000. 900 for
tires alone.
The company was organized a lit
tie less thar ten years ago and the
business has grown from annual sales
Of less than 100000 to annual sales
of more than one hundred million dol
lars. and from an output of few hun
dred cars to over 100000 cars annu-
ally.
The company is at present employ
ing In its factories and branch houses
18,06l men. all day laborers. not \
piece worker In their plants. and the
monthly pay roll amounts to 500. 900.
The total men employed throughout
the country would populate a good
sized city.
The growth OF this great company
has been wonderful Up to the first
of March they had shipped in the past
five months more than $1,000 cars as
against 1855 cars for the same per-
iod year ago.
To handle this wonderful yearly pro-
duction they require 100000 lamps.
100000 wheels, 500, 900 tires, 80. 900 tons
of steel. the hides from a herd Of 40O,-
900 cattle to furnish the leather for
upholstering the bodies, the hair or
bristles from 100000 hogs to stun
into the upholstering, 12.000. 900 hick-
ory billets for wheel spoEes. nearly
100000 square feet d. .glass for wind
shields. 75.oe0 pounds Of soap. 1900
tons of moulding sand to make cast
ings. 1900. 200 feet of gas per day for
heat treating: etc. Over two hundred
freight cars were required to handle
their shipments Of 1886 finished mo-
del Is. business of one day, Jan.
18th last. or five full trainloads Of
more than 40 cars to the train. On
the basis of the mileage from Detroit
to New York.if they had delivered this
one days output to their New York
branch by driving the cars overland,
they would have had a procession Of
Model rs Just a half mile apart, and
when the first car was coming into
New York the last one would have
been leaving the factory.
By September 30th they hope to have
100000 satisfied users; 100000 salts
fed owners means 100000 voters for
good roads, because most Ford owners
drive their own cars.
The Ford Company believes in ad-
vertising, it believes that the right
kind of advertising reduces the SELL
ing cost by increasing the demand and
manufacturing and distributing The
company, however, wont advertise
anything for dollar that isn't worth
dollar
Mr.. Hawkins, in summing up, said:
ut was a level-headed, clear-sighted
policy strictly adhered to that led Mr..
Ford to his present success"
