he build his house in the woods, the

bred Hereford cattle in all the bounds
of Maury county. From all parts of
this county and from other sections
there is almost a constant stream of
admiring visitors to see this notable

They are worth going miles to see.
Cows, heifers, calves, there are TWEEN

OF a small purchase two years ago by
Mr.. McClannahan at dispersal sale.
Every individual is a good one; all
of them have the decided marks of
| the breed, some on pasture now would
do for show ring. Their great,
board backs, their splendid top lines,
the beautiful red coloring of the bod
les, the white faces and intelligent
eyes are combinations that have made
the Hereford one of the most popular
beef breeds the world over
The blue grass farm of Mr.. McClan'
nahan makes a wonderful setting for
the cattle. 1t was here that his grand
father in 1906, a year before Maury

and the lands have been continuously
in the family ever since then.

Right in this town-and al over the

combination of long semi-ellipticai front springs
and the three-euarter elliptic rear springs that
is used on most heavy weight, high priced cars
The Maxwell offers you every essential OF the high
est priced machines at q nth OF their cost.
One Size of Tire-Anti.Skids on Rear
The Maxwell car is one of the easiest cars in the
world on tires. Maxwell owners carry but one
spare tire and but one size of spare tubes. Econom-
ical 80 inch < 3h inch tires are used all around:
A famous make Of anti-skid tires are supplied
on rear wheels.
A Dependable Electric Starter
For sos extra, you can have your Maxwell de-
livered equipped with the famous Simms-Huh cleo.

and easily operated.
And the Maxwell Is completely equipped from the
clear vision, ventilating windshield at the front
to the spare tire carrier at the rear. When you
buy a Maxwell you have nothing extra to buy.

has a three-speed selective sliding gear transmission
because Maxwell engineers do not consider any
other type to be worthy Of the Maxwell car.
Double-Shell Radiator with Shock
Absorbing Device
The Maxwell radiator is Of handsome design,
gracefully curved, and it is built to be trouble
proof. 1t is the expensive double shell ty and
has ample cooling capacity. The radiator is
mounted to the frame by means Of a shock alb
sorbing device on each side, which relieves the
radiator of all twists and distortions of the frame,
caused by r~oughness Of the road. The sfo>l abb
sorbing device also mininizes the possibility Of
radiator leaks.
The Roomy Full 5-Passenser Body
Adjustable Front Seat
The 1915 Maxwell has a full grown 5-passenger
body. The front seat is adjustable, you can move
1t three inches forward or backward. This makes
the car really comfortable for the driver. No
cramped legs for tall people or uncomfortable
reaching for short people. Most drivers seats are
made to fit anyone-so fit no one.

The carburetor used on the Maxwell was espec-
tally designed for 1t after long and severe tests
under every conceivable condition. Economy tours
conducted by hundreds OF dealers and owners IN

Reversible Steering Gear

The greatest margin of safety has been pro-
vided in the steering gear of the 1915 Maxwell.
The Maxwell reversible steering mechanism Is
of the expensive worm-and-gear type and its SUI
periority over every other type lies in its many
adjustments. At no time is more than a fourth OF
the bearing surface of the gear which operates
the worm in use. When needed, a new bearing
surface may be had by adjusting the gear a quarter
of a turn. In short, the Maxwell steering gear
has four times the adjustment of any other KIND.
