Jay Devin and son Ostin were in
Heppner Saturday from their ranch
in Sand Hollow. These gentlemen
have just completed the 1915 harvest
and they report that their grain av-
eraged 25 bushels per acre. They use
a combind harvester and think it
great improvement over the old way
of heading and threshing separately.

Another large plant which has
adopted six and twelve cylinder mod
els for the coming year is the Path
finder Company. also located in In
dianapolis. a number of new changes
have recently been made in the or
ganization. and it is in better shape
today than at any time in it's history
The past season was a successful one
and the coming year promises to
eclipse the past one. About 1000 cars
will be produced during the next
twelve months, which will keep the
plant running to full capacity. The
plant is a mammoth one. and is at
the present time engaged in producing
the new, models.
W. E. Stalnaker, one of the foremost
retail automobile dealers in the United
States, and who has the record of plac-
ing more high-grade cars on the boule-
wards of Chicago than any other deal
er, has just become vice president and
manager of sales of the company. AS
sociated with him is another live
wire st. Clair Couzens. who for the
past five years has been automobile
editor of the Chicago Daily Journal.
Mr.. CouZens has been connected with
the automobile industry for eight

years in a publicity capacity, and has
done much for the industry. This new
policy OF securing for the heads OF the
sales department men who have been
in actual touch with the automobile
dealers and buver's position was IA
vorably commented upon in motor cir
cles in indianapolis.
Plan of Effective Cooperation.
Behind the 1916 Pathfinder car has
been installed one of the most COM
prehensive and effective cooperation
plans for the dealer and owner that
have ever heard of. According to
Mr.. Stalnaker. with whom I had long
talk on the automobile situation, the
stantly, and from various reports
which came to my observation the
company has hit not only on the right
idea. but one that ought to have been
inaugurated by the automobile manu-
facturers many years ago. The plan
which the new officials have arranged.
it is said will tend to build up a sue
cessful business for the dealers. and
at the same time protect owners of
this particular make of car, when in
any part of the country.
Our business has been very sat
isfactory during the past several
months" said F.. E. Moskovics, COM
mercial manager of the Nordyke &
mon car. "and the west has been TAX
ing a large share of our cars. We be-
lieve that there is even a larger field
for cars west of the Mississippi and
we are expanding by leaps and bounds
in order to take care of this territory.
Mr.. Moskovics is prominent In the
Society of Automobile Engineers, being
chairman of the Indiana section, which
promises to be one of the 'livest wires"
Of the INSTRUMENTATION of the society.

has done great work that the aver
age motorist does not appreciate" he
told me. For instance, parts have
been standardized and standards have
been set up so that nuts and bolts are
Interchangeable, and now the motorist
can find what he wants for his car
without any great difficulty"
Gig Meetings."
A matter which appealed to me in
this plant was the absolute co-opera-
tion in all of the various departments.
which is necessary in an automobile
factory. which Is probably the only
means by which a really scientific sys-
TEN can be worked out in building
motor car. The department where the
actual mechanical work is done must
work with every other. And these. in
turn, must work in unity with the sales
front" One of the most interesting
features of the days work at the Mar
mon plant is the Zig meeting" which
is held at least once a day and some
times twice a day. At these meetings
the factory superintendent and en-
gineers gather to formulate their plans.
Each department is taken up by the
entire meeting. and It's exact plan is
laid out as to work to the greatest
advantage with the rest of the fac
tory Suggestions are made and dis
cussed, and when the meeting is over
every foreman is informed, not only
of what is to be done in his depart
ment, but also as to what is going on
In every section of the plant.
Should anything unforeseen occur
that would cause the absence Of sin
gle head. the work of his department
would go on just as smoothly as if
he were there. The working out of
this system of INSTRUMENTATION CO.
operation was natural growth in
the factory. Its effect is noticeable in
Evening star., 1915-08-01

| time by a shortage of aluminium, which
caused a lull in some Of the depart
ments. On the other hand. several OF
the departments were working over
time at night. Business conditions
were reported good and the outlook
very promising. About 500 empioyes
are engaged when the plant is running
full time.

New Factory of the Empire Co.
The occupation of a splendid, new
factory. that will increase manufacture
ing facilities fully 100 per cent. is the
latest development in the progress of
the Empire Automobile Company, which
is now engaged in the production Of a
big. 1ow-priced x-cyIinder car for the
coming season. The new factory. In
which the new models will be built, is
known as one of the ideal manufacture
ing plants of Indianapolis. With it's
floor space of 100000 square feet, ia
cilities are offered for vastly increased
production. Workmen will also abor
under ideal conditions, the buildings
being of modern construction through
out. With the opening of this factory
Empire interests are centralized in In
dianapolis, for although building of the
four-Cylinder model will continue in the
Connersville plant for several months,
all manufacturing will eventually be
done in Indianapolis
New Plant of Madison Motors Co.
The new plant of the Madison Motors
Company. at Anderson, Ind. is now well
under way with it's production, and
Cecil Gibson. president Of the Hoosier
company, said that deliveries were COM
ing through in good order. The plant
of the company comprises ten acres in
almost the heart of Anderson, Ind. 1t
was designed originally for the manu-
facture of motor cars. and very little
actual reconstruction to bring it up to
the very newest and approved arrange
ment was necessary. Everything
measures up to what will be found in
the largest and most successful plants
in the industry. The buildings proper
are of brick and cover approximately
one-third of the ten acres. A test
track has been provided on the grounds.
Special switching facilities are built in

company. has been making tour OF
the country visiting dealers and has
found conditions to be just as -four
shing as they were two months ago.
Everywhere the motor fever has grip
ped Americans and there is but little
doubt that the industry will continue
to thrive, according to President
Smith. In the east he found dealers
selling cars as rapidly as they were
received from the factories. The same
conditions exist in the middle west
and west. with an unprecedented sale
in the southern states.
The Premier Motor Manufacturing
Company will continue to manufacture

standing the fact that eight and twelve

pany has been making a number of

ing the relative wear and tear of en-

result of these tests the officials of the
concern will continue to stick to the
six type of motor.

the factory output because each engi-
neer and foreman. instead of combining
his attention to his work alone, is i'm
pressed with the idea that he is vital
part of the organization, and his eff
forts will show their results not in a
certain number of parts turned out
into the stockroom, but in a COM
pleted car of which he is one of the
builders The new 1915 models are
being pushed through the factory in
good shape. The 1915 production was
cleaned up earlier than usual and the
entire plant put to work on the new
models. which will be skies exclu-
sively.
Premier Factory Working Full Time.
The Premier factory is working at
full force every day, turning out cars
for immediate shipment. The demand
for cars has been SO great this year
that an additional force of men was
set to work early in the year, and
even with this added help dealers are
selling so many cars that 1T has been
difficult for the factory to keep step
with the orders which reach the 1ndi-
annapolis plant every week.
