The first few years of automobile
manufacturing ignored the country
market for machines. There was in
fact no market there. At that time
the city market was undeveloped and
as long as city buyers took cars as
fast as they were finished the manu-
facturer refused to trouble himself
about the type of car that would be
adapted to country roads and country
usage
1t is only within recent years that
the manufacturers have decided that
the rural business was worth reaching
out for. 1t must be confessed that
some of the first cars exploited in the
rural districts were but poorly adapt
ed to the sort Of usage they were
bound to get Had it not been for the
determination of the wouldbe auto
owner to get hold of q car that would
meet his needs, it is likely that the
earlier cars sold in the country might
have given sales in that territory a
decided setback.
Things are different now. The man.

Farmers BUY Many Cars.

Official statistics dealing with the
motor car industry in the state of
Washington, just issued by the state
officials at Olympia, show that total
of 9,779 cars were sold in the state
during IL months. These figures are
so segregated for urban and rural To-
calities that it is possible to accurate
ly ascertain the proportion of sales in
the country and in the larger cities
since the beginning of the year. Show
ing of what commanding importance
TO the farmers and other producers in
Washington the motor car, and espe-
cialy the light car, has become, the
figures give the bulk of the sales to
rural localities. In the country districts
$3.50 cars we're bought, as against
S,4OS disposed of in the cities of Ia
coma. Seattle and Spokane combined.
Seattle was in the lead of any single
locality with 1852 cars sold during
the nine months. Spokane ranked
next with S7S machines and Tacoma
calae third with 673 sales.

Influences of the Moon.

The many and erratic motions of the
moon are SO intricate that space here
is not enough for their technical ex-
PLANTATION. The raost important Of the
influences of the moon is in its caus-
ing the ocean tides by its powerful
magnetic attraction, and it is an in
f1uence that is best understood in its
effect by the mass of TIE people. The
old superstition in regard to planting
and sowing, and in doing many other
things at a certain time Of the
moou," still fostered by few of the
almanacs and believed in by many,
was long ago made obsolete by the
of science and general in
telligence.

SaVinu All the Oil,

1t has remained for the motor car
Industry to take lesson from the COW
and her rural owner
AS nearly every person knows, the
farmer has a separator to take the
cream from the milk.
Here is the way the automobile in
dustry has taken a lesson from the
farmer and his cream separator:
In every big factory hundreds of gal.
Ions of oil are used while various parts
of the motor car are being drilled.
The oil streams over the tool as it
bores through the metal, aiding in the
work and keeping the metal cool.
Consequently much oil sticks to the
metal shavings ar dust.
At many motor car plants the shaw
ings are scooped into the cream sep
arator" The oil is separated from the
metal and used again, effecting a big
saving during a year.

ufacturer has frankly met the objec-
tions to the first types sold in the
country by modifying them and even
by creating entirely new designs to
meet conditions. Naturally the coun-
try owner of an auto does not look
with favor on the extremely heavy car
or the richly-finished and luxurious
car of the town types. He knows his
roads and what car must stand up
under.
Within the past two years the farm
er who wanted to buy an automobile
has had many suitable types to make
his selections from. 1t is now possible
for him to buy cars ranging in price
from $40 to $4,000 and get value re-
ceived for every dollar he puts into
the purchase The designer and the
builder have at last got down to bust
ness in the making Of cars for rural
use. Considering the materials. and
the stresses and strains these mate.
rails must undergo on country roads,
the car builders have attained a great
degree Of success.

Discouraging Dishonesty.

Punishment for giving short weigh
is far from new, and the Turks long
ago took drastic measures to check
this tendency on the part of trades
men. The Sultan Achmet II, walking
through the streets of STEAMBOAT, saw
at the door of a bakers shop tho
owner his hands tied behind him, with
one ear nailed to a post Upon inquiry
he was told the cause of the poor fell
lows predicament. who is he"
asked the sultan. May it please your
highness," was the reply, che supplies
the bread for the imperial sereglio."
"Ah, my baker? Then set up another
post and nail his other ear to it. The
sultan's baker should have a double
reason for honesty"

POKER AND PHILOLOGY.

n TRAVELLED down through Europe; I
wandered up the Nile;
l sought the mausoleums where the
II mummied phacaohs lay;
1 found the sculptured tunneling where
quietly in style
Imperial sarcophagi concealed the royal
clay.
Above the vaults were sculptured in let
tiers old and brown,
who openeth jackpot may not always
rake it down."
It's strange what wild Impressions spring
from very little things.
I turned with deep reluctance from that
/ motto old and brown,
And from the cryptic granite discreetly
! drew four kings.
| But on consideration politely laid them
down,
Because on each sarcophagus were trac-
ings faint and thin,
WHO openeth jackpot may not always
rake it in
I made this observation: A man with such
hand
Has psychologist feelings which perhaps
he should not feel.
But 1 was. somewhat ratified and in a for
eign land
And had some dim suspicious, as I had
not watched the deal,
And there was that inscription, too, in
words that seemed to frown,
"Who openeth Jackpot may not always
rake it down.
OF course those letters were not carved
in Anglo-SaXon tongue.
Perhaps if you had seen them you had
Idly passed them by.
But poker and philology 1 studied yet
when young.
! I recognized the language when it struck
my classic eye.
saw that there was meaning in that SEN
tence old and brown,
who openeth jackpot may not always
rake it down."
Detesting metaphysics, 1 cannot help but
put
A philosophic moral where l think it
ought to hang.
I've seen a boom for office grow feeble
at the root
Then change into boomlet, then to a
boomerang.
In caucus or convention. in village or in
town
Who openetb a jackpot may not always
rake it down.

Auto Bodies of Wood Cement.

Apropos of the suggestion made
some time ago that motorcar bodies
might, with profit be made of papier
mache, it is interesting to note that a
firm of French builders recently has
perfected method of using what is
styled wood cement for this purpose,
apparently with considerable success.
In using the material the exact COM
position of which is kept secret, the
body is built of light framework
over which is stretched wire netting.
The wood cement is then literally plas-
tered on with trowel. 1t dries quite
hard in "a hours, after which it can
be planed like wood, and is capable of
taking very high finish. The weight
of the finished body is approximately
the same as the weight of an ordinary
wooden one. One valuable feature of
the construction is that repairs are
very easily made. In case of breaks
caused by collision, etc., it is neces-
sary merely to plaster up the hole and
refnish the body. The material does
not chip or disintegrate, is impervious
to water, heat or cold, and is
practically mhnstible.-Scientifi
