FARMERS PENcHANT FOR AUTOS
BECOMES FINANCIAL FACTOR

Wisconsin bankers are agitated by
the problems involved in financing
the farmers of that State in their
purchase of automobiles. As Cali
fornia is a greater automobile State,
not only than Wisconsin but than any
other State in the Union with the
possible exception of New York.
there is occasion for similar agita-
ton here, says the San Francisco
Journal of Commerce.
The average Wisconsin farmer.
according to the secretary of the
Wisconsin Bankers Association, uses
about $500 cash in paying for a ma
chine and borrows a similar amount
to take care of the remaining cost of
the automobile and incidentals. Ac-
cording to the same authority there
are so. 200 automobiles in Wisconsin,
which, at an average Of $1,000 each,
account for a total of $50 1000. 900.
About three-fourths of this sum, he
says, is furnished by the banks IN
one form or another.
The wholesale purchase of auto
mobiles by farmers is one of the
characteristic developments of our
time. In southwestern Ohio there
are farmers who have been working
hard and in return getting a good
living for their families and perhaps
a thousand or fifteen hundred dollars
a year over expenses. These men
have been able to to this by very
strict attention to business and by
dabbling in extravagances lightly if
at all.
Then the automobile appears on
the scene-and in a flash there comes
a revolution in the farmers affairs
He finds a new and exhilarating
pleasure in rapid movement through
the country. The machine means
added comfort, convenience and lux
ury for his family. He may buy less
farm machinery than heretofore; he
may not paint his house so often nor
buy so much fertilizer for his land.
but in most cases he will hang on to
the automobile to the end of the
chapter.
The automobile is the most allur-
ing luxury of our time. 1t has
brought a great deal of pleasure to
millions of human beings. Probably
there are no Americans who are get
ting quite so much pleasure out of
the motor car to-day as the farmers.
Sudden acquisition of an expensive
habit by men who have made thrift
a lifelong slogan may involve the
country in some curious financial. in
dustrial and even political tangles
before we are through. But mean
while the automobile owning farmer
is having a time.
