PLENTY OF BREAD LEFT OVER
Mr., Smith, in the Amen Corner, Of

tain Young Minister.

One Sunday morning a certain
young pastor in his first charge an
nounced nervously:
Il will take for my text the words
And they fed five men with 5000
loaves of bread and 1000 fishes"
At this misquotation an old par
ishioner from his seat in the amen
corner said audibly:
That's no miracle could do il
myself"
The young preacher said nothing
at the time, but the next Sunday he
announced the same text again. This
time he got it right:
And they fed 5000 men on five
2oaves of bread and two fishes"
He waited a moment and then, lean
ing over the pulpit and looking at the
amen corner he said:
And could you do that too, Mr.

"Of course l could" Mr.. Smith re

To Save Sweet Potatoes

10 Save Sweet FOtatOeS
Safety requires that prepare
tions be made for keeping sweet
potatoes. The loss every year
from black rot and other diseases,
largely caused by carelessness in
digging and putting up sweet
potatoes, is large. much larger
than it should be and decidedly
larger than it would be if more
attention were given to saving
sweet potatoes.
The sweet potato plant, IT
moisture is available, will con-
tinue growth till frost. In fact,
with some varieties the months
of August and September are
the most important in the pro-
duction of a large crop of pota-
toes. Unfortunately, these
months are often dry, or at least
a large part of them, and this of
course reduces the yield mate
rally.
Sweet potatoes should be al
lowed to grow as late as possible
for the reason mentioned above.
They have considerable drouth-
e lduring adaptations and will
revive quickly when rains come
following a drouth. But frost
kills the vines and it is not safe
to wait till frost to dig up the
tubers. A very heavy frost may
iniure the tubers and cause many
of them to rot. 1t is also safest
to dig before very heavy rains in
the fall in event the weather has
been very dry. A very heavy
rain following a long drouth may
fill the tubers with excessive
moisture and make them keep
very badly unless dried by arti-
fetal heat.
Every farmer should store and
keep enough sweet potatoes for
home use and plenty to bed
out" the following year. When
enough is produced to sell it may
be profitable to store and keep
them till prices are higher, as
low prices nearly always prevail
at digging time" Nevcrthe-
less, where there is danger OF
rotting it may be more profitable
to sell for what they will bring
at digging time than take the
risk. This is a question that
every manager must answer for
himself.
Sweet potatoes if sound when
dry and comparatively free from
black rot need not be very diff
cult nor expensive to keep. They
must be protected from cold, be
ventilated, kept dry and much
better if processed by artificial
heat. Farm and Ranch.

It is Mr.. Caplans intention to

Mr.. Caplan stated that the new
store will be conducted in many ways
along unusual lines, one of which will
be the display of no plated or filed
gold jewelry, but that everything
shown in gold will be solid gold. He
also stated that this will be equally
true of articles shown in silver.

HARRISBURG AUTO CO.
LARGE DISTRIBUTORS
Sells More Reos Than Any REQ
Distributor Between New
York and Detroit

The success of the REQ automobile
has been of a most wonderful charac-
ter and has proved conclusively that q
concentration of time and energy tc
one line of cars. wins out" says George
G. Mcfarland, of the Harrisburg Auto
Co., largest distributors of Reos be-
tween New York and Detroit
Several years ago Henry Ford told
the writer that he considered that
there were two wise automobile man
ufacturers in the NUnited States. one
was himself and the other was r. f
Olds. The argument advanced was
that these two men were practically
the only manufacturers in the United
st kes that had stuck to one model
All they had done was improve the
weak parts but had made no radical
mechanical changes. That Mr.. Ford S
statement was correct has been proved
conclusively mas much as he is ac-
knowledged the richest manufacturer
in the automobile industry and r. +.
Olds stands second. Selling exclusively
one car and devoting your time to il
Conscientiously, perfecting your sell
ing, service and repair system, has
proven great factor in the success
of the REQ.
For some time past the Harrisburg
Automobile Company have been de-
voting their exclusive time and atten-
tion to the REQ line of touring cars
and trucks with the result that during
the year ending August 1st, 1915, they
sold and delivered 403 new REQ tour
ing cars and 50 new REQ two-ton
trucks. They firmly believe that every
customer is satisfied with his pur-
chase and with the attention he re-
ceived after his purchase. The policy
of this firm is to take better care OF
the customer after he has paid his
money than before. The satisfaction
and good words Of the REQ owners has
warranted the Harrisburg Automobile
Company contracting with the Rec
Motor Car Company for eight hun
dred REQ pleasure cars and two hun
dred trucks, fifty-twoton and $50
three-quarter ton trucks. This will
mean a volume of business that is
far in excess of that done by any other
REQ dealer between New York and
Detroit and probably as large a busi-
ness as is done by any exclusive au-
tomobile dealers in this part of the
United States. There is some credit
due Harrisburg when 1t is figured that
from this town over a million dollars
worth of automobile business can
he handled within a season.
The principle credit is due to the
wonderful car that the REQ people do
and always have made and coupled
TO this the attention and the satisfac-
ton given by our REQ service depart
ment is a large factor. The fact that
the owners buy a REQ for their second
third and fourth cars is a positive
proof that they have been receiving
constant satisfactory attention.
The principle. changes in the REQ
for this coming season will be the

tailed alterations and convenience

Paige Making Squirt in
Sales and Production

The great building the Paige-De-

its plant has progressed so far that
another so days will see it completed
and in operation.
The progress made is a source of
great satisfaction to Paige officials
who are straining every nerve and
resource in their efforts to keep pace
with the extraordinary demand for
cars which prevails in all sections of
the country. Without the aid. how
ever. OF increased factory facilities
production has already been speede
up and greatly advanced over the rec
ords of a few months ago. In fact
there has been steady movement for
ward all summer
This much desired manufacturing
achievement is reflected in the very
large increase in business, a record
which, of course, could not have been
made without the successful manage
ment of the manufacturing end of the
industry August, 1915, shows an in
crease of about 300 per cent in busi-
ness done over the record of August
1914. and If present plans are con-
tinued successfully September will
show an increase of at least 500 per
cent.-all of which is excellent evil
dence of the demand for Paige cars
These records will however, be
very badly beaten when the new fac
tory building is operating a couple of
months from now. Much of the space
will be used for warehousing materials

You will always find a REQ owner a
satisfied automobilist The policy of
the REQ Motor Car Company has been
never to cut quality-always to make
il better If possible. While other man
ufacturers in dropping price found it
necessary to incorporate in their car,
material of a cheaper grade, the REQ
people overcome this necessity by
making a larger quantity of cars, re-
ducing the discount to the agent to
some extent and their own profits, but
never have cut the quality. The new
line of REQ the Fifth will be superior.
If that is possible, to the cars sold
during 1915. Saving by using cheaper
material has never been a REQ idea
of establishing a satisfactory business
and purchasers of the new models
need have no fear whatever that they
are not getting just as good car as
their friends received in 1915"

Students of Auto School
on Trip to Gettysburg

Forty students of the Auto Trans
portation School left this morning in
automobiles for Gettysburg under the
guidance of W. NJ. FELTON,, instructor
and manager of the school. Once a
month the students are given a tour
to some interesting point. This gives
the students country road practice.
During week days the students get the
mechanical training and driving over
city streets necessary to make them
efficient. This school has placed
large number of students in this vi
cinity and does a great deal of repair
work under Mr.. Feltons direction,
which is invaluable to the students
who see the practical workings in this
way, similar to a mechanical clinic
where automobiles are dissected and
permits them to see and become fam
iliar with interior workings.
