FORD AUTOS 1
ARE CHEAPER
Mr.. Tamm, of the Denison Auto Co.,
Says the Ford People viii Share
With the Ford Owners.
PRICES ARE LOWERED $4,000
If Company Sells 100000 Cars During
Year from August, 1914, to Aug
ust, 1915, Purchaser Gets $50.

On another page of this issue will
be found an advertisement Of the
Ford automobile. The ad tells OF the
Ford company taking another step
ahead. First it was the huge profit
sharing plan to the employees OF the
company. Now comes the profit shar-
ing plan with retail purchasers Of
Ford motor cars. The prices on all
Ford cars have been reduced $50, 10

guarantee is that there will be no fur

touring cars for $3.50 aud town ears
for 5000. And as before all cars are
f. O. B. Detroit and all are fully
equipped.
In addition to this reduction of $50
per car, the Ford company agrees (on
or about Aug. 1, 1879 to pay as a
share OF their profits from $40 to $50
per car to every retail buyer who pnr-
chases new Ford auto between Aug.
|, 1914, and Aug. 1, 1915. provided they
can reach an output of 100000 cars
between those dates. This Profit shar-
ing with retail buyers will be possible
only by the output reaching 100000
cars, thus decreasing their factory
costs and selling costs and increasing
their buying power to such an extent
that they will be able on Aug. /, 1915,
to pay to every retail buyer $40 to $50
in addition to the cut in price made at
this time.
An output of 100000 Ford cars in
the next twelve months is not an Az
normal increase over this seasons
business, as evidenced by the fact
that during the past twelve months
they have sold 221 .SSS cars.

DUTIES OF TOWNSHIP TRUSTEES
There has Been Great Increase in
Duties of These Officers

Since the time when Iowa became
& Territory in 1898 there has been a
great increase in the number and i'm
portance of the duties assigned to
local officers, as for instance the town
ship trustees. One by one new funu-
tons and possibilities have been
placed upon these officers until the
amount OF time required to perform
the many duties faithfully is out of all
proportion to the small compensation
received. THE modest demands made
upon the township trNjtees when only
a few families resided within their
jurisdiction and when only single
road which was seldom Travelled,
required their attention, have eX-
banded until the general super
vision of township affairs re-
quires attention to-a large num-

FIRST INDIANS IN 1873
First Meeting of Indians and White
Men on Iowa Sell.

The story of the first meeting Of
Indians and white men on Iowa soil
as told in the words of Father Mar

of 1.-The Iowa Journal of History and

bank near the mouth of the Iowa riv-

distance they came in sight of an in

the attention of the savages they gave
loud shout. Thercupon the Indians
hastily emerged from their lodges and
after viewing the strangers for time,
,deputed four of their old men to speak
to them.

THE FAMILY INCOME.

Should a man and his wife have
equal access to the family cash box
II they have bank account should
beth have the checking privilege?
Or should the man Tor the wife)
handle all the money?
Though reams ;iavc Deen written
on this subject, its interest remains
inexhaustiblc and we would be glad
to hear from our readers on what
their experience has been.
A mana good man. holding ably
a high professional job-takes his
pay envelope home every Saturday
night and hands every penny of it
over to his wife, receiving back only
h small allowance for his personal
needs. He isn't henpecked, either.
He Just knows he isn't a manager
and that his wife is-so he seeks the
greatest efficiency.
In many cases it is the man who
gives the wife affixed allowance
while he handles. the remainder.
Usually he expects her to keep an ac-
count Of the household expenditures
is wise, since 1t insures sys-
tenn and promotes economy. But does
he, in turn, render to her an equally
accurate and. detailed accounting of
the part of the family income which
he manages?
Yet it is a poor rule which doesn't
work both ways; and in partner
ship both should. be informed.-Mc-

Of the plant which shows a profit

modern system of filtration, with a

plant was installed in 1908 the death
,rate from typhoid fever has been re-
duced from IS per 100000 to only

that is to blame in Fairmont for our
