THE FORD DOES 1T EVERY TIME

Omaha reports the arrival of w. S.
Brown of Dexter, N. Mex, who has
Just completed a 1850 mile drive in
his Ford over roads which he said
he did not think were passable even
for a mule team. to say nothing Of
a motor car. Day after day he plow-
ed through mud hub deep and for 81
miles was not within sight of a human
habitation. Among other pleasant
experiences, he passed through a
cloudburst and was compelled to go
through mile after mile of knee-deep
gumbo. Four rivers were forded en-
route.
During the trip the car-in spite of
the terrific road conditions-averaged
20 miles to a gallon of gasoline and
carried Mr.. and Mrs. Brown, their son
and $50 pounds of baggage. After
Mr.. Browns Ford reached Omaha it
was examined at the local Ford
Branch and although 1t had run 1000
miles before this trip, the motor show
ed that it was still in excellent con-
dition.
