HORSE FEEDING COST

FORD PLANT VISITORS
AVERAGE $50 DAILY
Staff of Guides Always on Hand to
Extend Courtesies to
Callers.

The policy of the Ford Motor CouiNany
is rather unique in one respect. in that
every effort is made to welcome and en-
courage visitors. In Europe and in some
of the Eastern automobile factories II is
impossible to gain entrance under any
pretext Visitors come to the Ford in
great numbers from all over the United
states and Europe, and they average
about 150 day. For their reception and
guidance a staff of about twenty-five to
thirty guides IS available. and a good pro-
portion Of these are on the job constant
ly. They take the visitors around the
plant In small groups and over a regu-
lar route, much as a Cooks touring party

try. OF course, summer, when visitors 10

est crowd at the Highland Park plant,
but the number of sight-seers keeps up
pretty well throughout the year. The
name and address of every visitor is
kept in register. When celebrities of
international fame are at the plant they
are generally followed by the moving pic
ture man. who makes motion picture films
for the exclusive use of the Ford company.
Two hundred and fifty Michigan edi-
tors and printers in attendance at a meet
ing of the State Press Association. in De-
troit, visited the plant of the Ford Motor
Company recently and were taken on a
tour Of inspection through the great High
land Park factories. The visiting jour-
nalists were given an intimate view of
all the various operations which makes
the huge Ford production possible. They
were taken to The motion picture theater
in the Ford plant and were shown several
reels of film which illustrate interesting
phases OF Ford manufacture.
The visitors were delegates to a con-
vention which represented several State
bodies Of newspaper workers. including
the Michigan %omen's Press Associa-
tion and the Wolverine Press Association.

MASTER HAND MODELS,
STEVENS-DURYEA CAR
Latest Model Years Ahead of Any
thing on Two Continents-Con-
trolls in Easy Reach.
POWER AND QUIET UNRIvALED

An announcement by the Stevens-Dur-
yea Company Of its new product is al
ways awaited with the keenest interest
by prospective buyers OF fine motorcars.
Rich in history OF important innova-
tions in design. their announcement Is
significant of the trend in the, perfection
of the extremely fine motorcar. That
the Stevcns- Duryea Company has justly
earned its reputation as introducers Of the
most individual features Incorporated in
the car of today. Us not questioned by
those who have followed closely the his
tory OF the organization throughout its
nearly a quarter-century of leadership.
Connoisseurs I'm car values freely admit
that the new model Is at least two years
in advance OF anything in Europe or
America today. The extraordinary ad-
vance in the science of quality automobile
design in the preceding models makes II
a perfectly logical conclusion that the
years-ahead features which the Stevens
Duryea Company has always maintained
are Incorporated in this new car.
When one studies the detail of refine
ments he cannot but observe the exact
ing extremes with which the master hand
has touched the small features which the
seasoned. critical motorist so much ap-
preciates.
The concentration on one model means
that the company has elected to built the
highest grade motorcar in the world.
The building of one chassis, and that the
supreme embodiment of the unequaled
experience of the company has a world
Of meaning to the prospective purchaser
Of the best motor vehicle than can be
obtained.
Expressing an association of usefulness
with refinement. the controls are placed
within easy reach OF the operator. who is
seated on the left in the new model.
Building the electric unit for starting
and lighting as a part of the power plant
is an innovation that will merit the most
hearty approval by those interested in the
mechanical construction OF the car.
Power and quietness have always been
associated with the product OF the COM
pany, and in the new model these have
been attained in an unrivaled degree.
The introduction of a design of top
which is supported only at the rear and
at the very forward part makes for easy
entrance TO the car and offers unob-
structed vision to every occupant. This
new design is a further working out of
the original feature of attaching the
windshield integrally to the body. This
refinement is exclusive.

adaptation of a new design of support,

FEW FREAKS ARE SEEN.
Auto Makers Think 1t Better to I'm
prove Existing Designs.

Perhaps the most striking feature OF
this years motor shows is the almost en-
tire absence of what might be called
freaks Manufacturers have grown
much wiser and nave found out by bitter
experience that il is far better to go on
improving existing designs. which have
done so well in the past, than to risk Jail
ure by adopting any new and untried in
ventions.
The unit construction of motor, clutch,
and gear set is more prominent than
ever, and those of the old motoring school
who remember at the first motor shows
in this country the Stevens-Duryea chas-
sis, showing the original of this principle,
probably are not surprised at SO general
adoption of this unit construction. No
engineering staff of any company has ever
received such fattering testimonial to
their advanced ideas Gs has been testified
to by the motoring industry in adopting
the feature which a few years ago was
shown only by one company.

About People You Know

Talk about your easy riding cars. You

local Cadillac agents.
THE average business man who prizes
the dictaphone as a marvel of time
saving and efficiency and who appreciates
the delicacy of its construction. may find
il difficult to believe that the instrument
has been successfully used In speeding
automobile.
yet that is precisely what was done IN
logging the route of a run Of 122 miles
near st. Louis. Mo. In this instance the
dictaphone took the place of the laborious
writing of notes bearing on landmarks,
dangerous crossings, grades. sharp turns,
etc.
After several trials. and before the
pathiinding run was actuany begun, 1t
was found that the 1914 Cadillac was
best fitted to carry the dictaphone and
permit of its use while underway. The
instrument was placed in the tonneau
and the notemaker sat in front beside
the driver. the tube from the dictaphone
being carried over his shoulder. The
practicality of the Cadillac two-speed
axle in promoting smoothncss and steadi-
n0s in running was admirably demon
strated on the trip, and although the die
taphone was in constant use while the
car was running. not a single record was
marred by vibration.
For the purpose of route-making this
experiment proved that the dictaphone

More Can't Be Given

We say to you-after IA years of trying
that more of value can't be given than we give
in No-Rim-Cut tires.
And no other tire costs so much to make,
unless that cost is due to wasteful methods or
to smaller output.

DANGEROUS EUROPEAN INSECT.
Pine Trees in Eastern States Injured and
Department Recommends Treatment.

The U. S. department of agriculture
| is calling attention TO the introduction
and esta blishment in America of the Eu
ropean pine shoot moth, which threat.
ems to cause serious loss. This insect Is
small orangered moth, the larvae OF
which hollows out new buds and kills
or Injuries the ends of twigs of pine
tres. This injury causes deformity
which is serious in ornamental trees, and
in trees grown for lumber makes a
crooked growth and consequent waste
when the tree is cut.
In Europe the insect NOT only attacks
all native pines but is equally injurious
to American species cultivated there.
The department states that the young
larvae came into this country within
the buds on imported pine seedlings
which have eome from France, England,
Holland, Belgium or Germany. The de-
partment's investigators have discovered
it in only 10 localities, in six states
from Massachusetts to Pennsylvania, but
il is likely that it may be found in
other localities. 1t has not been found
in any native trees in the forest and
with only one exception has always been
on European pines in nurseries and pri-
vate parks. There Is no evidence to in
dicate that it has been in this country
more than a year except on Long Island,
where il has existed for more than two
years.
There are several native pine shoot
moths. but none of them inflict the Sc
rious injury of the European species.
The department hopes that the new
pest may be stamped out before il be-
comes too widespread to be controlled.
At present the problem of its elimina
ton is confined mainly to nurseries, but
4 it once gets into the native pine for
,sts the experts think that it would be
beyond control. In its lsrval stage the
moth is so effectively protected in the
buds and shoots that il cannot be
cached by any insecticide, and the only |
method OF getting rid of II is to prune |
,ut and destroy the shoots which con-
ain the insect This should preferably |
