For this reason cars are allotted to dealers by
the factory according to the size of the dealers
business,
We want to make a showing and be in posi-
ton to get a generous allotment of Maxwells
hereafter. Because the more Maxwells are sold in
any community, the greater is the future demand
We realize the opportunity to do an ever-increasing
Maxwell business.
This is only the first of the several messages
we going to print-a few days apart--coneem-
ing the Maxwell Car. But we don't expect to be
able to adequately present Maxwell merits IN
printed words alone.
If you are one who is going to buy a new car
you will find il decidedly 10 your advantage to
find out all you can about the Maxwell before you
place your order.
Come in and talk Il over with US and let US
demonstrate the to you. Then don't take our
word alone, but ask those who now own Maxwells.
Get posted about the Maxwell and you will
realize more satisfaction and get more "value re-
ceved' for your motor car money than ever
before.
And we are just as willing to have you investi-
gate other cars just as fully as you do ours. The
Maxwell will not suffer by the comparison.
Why not start your Maxwell investigation
today?

What Do You Know
About The Maxwell Car?

TVHIS is the time of the year when more
people are considering the question of
l what car to buy than at any other time
of the year.
This community has its full share of people
who will soon be driving their first car or new
car to replace the old one.
Now, we know that we going to sell Max
well Cars to a great many of these people-de-
pending upon how many are able to acquaint
with the merits of the Maxwell.
The generous value offered in the Is so
evident-ts past record is full of good perform
ance--owners speak so well of it-that when the
buyer knows these things he is eager to buy
Maxwell
In order to tell as many people as possible
about the merits of the Maxwell Car we are going
to spend lot of money in the next few weeks in
this paper advertising Maxwell merits to those
who do not know them.
The reason-we want to sell as many Max
wells as possible this season. Our future allot-
ments will depend upon how many Maxwels we
sell now.
You may know that the Maxwell market is
buyers market not a sellers market-broadIy
speaking The demand for Maxwells the country
over is greater than the supply.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, July 10.-The cotton
market opened firm today at an ad
vance of to I points in response to
relatively steady cables and reports
of further showers or rains in parts of
the eastern and central belts. october
contracts sold at 1917 and December
at 1895 or into new high ground for
the present movement, but some pri-
vate crop advices read more favorably
than anticipated. while the southern
storm had evidently lost intensity and
fluctuations after the call were more
or less irregular. October contracts
eased off to 1905 and December to
1928 under realizing, but steadied
around this level and ruled some 2 to
3 points net higher toward the end Of
the first hour Private cables reported
a quiet, steady market in Liverpool.
Futures opened firm: July. -: Au-
gust. 1903; October, 1914: December,
1894; January. 1910. and March, 1885.
Private reports claiming that over
fifteen inches of rain had fallen at Bir-
mingham since last Wednesday and
that rivers were overfowing, combined
with apprehensions that storm warn
ings for the south Atlantic coast might
foreshadow another disturbance, caused
moderate rallies during the middle of
the morning. The failure of these fea-
lures to create more active demand
was evidently a disappointment to old
longs, however, and prices turned cas-
ier again toward midday, with October
selling off to 1902 and December to
1921, or about 7 to s points net lower.

WEATHER..
Cloudy Tonight and Tomorrow,
Probably Showers.


For the District of Columbia and
Maryland cloudy tonight and tomor-
row, probably showers; moderate
winds, mostly southerly.
For Virginia, cloudy tonight and to-
morrow, probably showers; moderate
southeast and south winds.
For West Virginia, probably showers
tonight and tomorrow.
The tropical disturbance is still
slightly in evidence over Tennessee,
with the result that rains continued in
the southeast, but in less quantity than
in several days past. There has been a
considerable rise in pressure over the
western Atlantic, and this. with the
Tennessee disturbance, has caused
rains in the middle Atlantic and New
England states. There were also thun-
dershowers in the Rock mountain re-
gions.
High Temperatures continue in the
west. but in the east they are moder-
ate.

WHEAT PRICES WEAKEN;
NO FRESH RUST REPORTS
Rally Later Fails to Last and An
other Decline Follows-Liverpool
News Is More Reassuring.

CHICAGO. July 1o.-Wheat prices de-
veloped weakness today in the absence
of any fresh evidence that the spring
crop was threatened by black rust.
Rumors to the contrary led at one time
to a quick upturn, but the effect failed
to last Liverpool dispatches asserted
that advices there from the American
northwest were more reassuring in re-
gard to the supposed rust danger.
Opening prices here. which ranged
from Aa% to IN cents lower. with
July at LOS to 1.o6A and September at
LOS to 1.0sA, were followed by rally to
another decline.
Corn Prices Are Firm.
Scarcity of offerings gave frmness to
corn. The July option, which showed
noticeable tightness. mounted to the
highest price on the present upturn.
The market, as a whole. after opening
haA up to u up. scored a moderate
general advance
Higher quotations from London tend
ed to lift oats Corn strength was also
a bullish factor.
Declines in the hog market acted as
a weight on provisions. The weekly
export returns were likewise of a de-
pressing character
Uncertainty over the black rust re-
ports. which were conflicting. kept the
wheat market nervous. Some of the
messages from South Dakota said the
rust had appeared. and other dispatches
from the same neighborhoods denied its
presence. There were ample offerings
