The spelling of eggs during
the hot months before they come
to market is due very largely to
the incubation of fertile eggs.
Infertile eggs would be of very
much better quality. Three mer-
chants in Kansas made a study
of this on thirty cases of eggs
candled in August. There was a
loss of Soc on every dollars worth
of eggs handled in this test. The
total of losses due to the incuba-
ton of fertile eggs is, therefore,
very great. Infertile eggs can
be secured and should be produced
during the summer by the remov-
al of all roosters from the flocks.
The week of May 22-27 has been
designated as Rooster Week"
for Kansas by Mr.. Ross NJ. Sher-
wood, poultry specialist in this
Division, and all farmers are
urged to dispose of their ROSTERS
then or earlier. Many merchants
in this state, particularly in couu-
ties where farm bureaus and
county agents are at work,
have promised to pay a premium
for ROSTERS during that week so
as to make an inducement to far
mers to dispose of them.

COMBINE RETAIL AND
SUPPLY BUSINESSES
William P. Barnhart & Co. In
corporated-To Build Garage,
Sales and Service Rooms.

An amalgamated of motor interests Of
considerable note was that OF William
p Barnhart & Co., who have Just IN
corporated their retail business in
washington, combining their automooile
and supply businesses under one head.
The company was Incorporated with
S25 900 capital stock to engage In the
retail field, Mr.. Barnhart retaining the
large wholesale business he has built
up in the past five years.
Mr.. Barnhart is president Of the new
company, and announces he will shortly
erect a large building not far from his
present location that will be operated as
a garage, sales and service rooms, and
will also house a jobbing supply busi-
ness. The building. according to the
plans. will house about 800 cars, and
will be built similar to a prominent New
York garage that possesses many new
and novel features never seen south OF
that city.
The building will also house about
100 Pullman cars, which VIII be kep'
here to supply the many dealers who
sell Pullmans in Maryland, Virginia,
and West virginia. Mr.. Barnhart also
proposes to inaugurate a service policy
with each car sold that will guarantee
the owner a liberal insurance agains'

WORLD HAS 3,ll4,OOO
CARS, CENSUS SHOWS
America Has Three Times as
Many Automobiles as Rest
Of World Combined.

In these days OF quantity production.
with the leading automobile rnanufac-
turers OF the United State planning for
the turning out of a round million Of
cars during the present fiscal year. the
question OF what may be termed the au-
tomobile population of the world natur-
ally arises Where do these thousands
OF American cars and the additional
thousands made in foreign countries go?
According TO statistics Just compiled
bv the Horseless Age. following it's ef-
forts TO obtain an automobile census of
the world. there are approximately
3.114.OO0 automobiles in use throughout
the globe This total seems astonish-
ingly small when It is considered that
the latest registration figures indicate
that there are 100000 automobiles in
the United States alone. The United
States has long been recognized as the
foremost manufacturer and consumer of
motor vehicles. but 1t remains for the
tabulations of figures such as those
mentioned above to most strikingly
illustrate this supremacy. Approximate
ly a per cent of the worlds automobiles
are being operated over the roads OF thil
country.
An idea of the position the United
States occupies in the motoring field
, may be gained when It is known that
ia. 900 cars in service in other sections
Of the world represent less than the
total OF cars registered in the States OF
New York. Ohio. California. and Iowa
There is one important factor in con-
nection with the compilation of these
figures which has to be reckoned with
but which tends further to advance the
| standing Of the United States as a na'
| ton of automobilists.
This Is the war now raging on the
other side of the Atlantic. The leadinr
| nations involved include the foremost
Of the European automobile builders
and users. In Great Britain. France
Germany, Austria, Russia. and Italy
practically all of the privately owned
motor vehicles have been reQuisitioneC

STRONG GUARANTEE
GIVEN WITH MOTOR
National Auto College Issues
Written Contract With Each
Car Sold.

One Of the most liberal OF service
guarantees that motordom has ever
known has been announced bv the Ma
tional Auto College in connection with
the Madison car. local agency for which
It has recently obtained.
Manager Warwick states that no mat
ter what happens to the car. the guar
antee made by the college for one year
will hold. and he has in every in
stance of a sale put this into writing.
II the owner Of one Of the new Madisons
runs into a tree or hits a telegraph
pole. the college will repair the damage
with absolutely no cost to the owner
during the first year.
It Is, of course, a fact that this re-
markable service backing Is only made
possible through the availability of the
experts in charge of the college. And
yet. in these days when service Is OF
such great import to the car owner, II
should be a source of tremendous satis-
faction to Madison owners. no matter
what the why's and wheretores. MI.
Warwick said that the manufacturers,
the Madison Motor Company. closely
second the service of their local repre-
sentatiVes in that the factory agrees to
replace any parts broken or defective
for the same period of time.
These statements are unquesttonably
honest ones. Certainly the National
Auto College. which has been in exist
ence almost since the beginning of the
automobile industry, and which, in its
way. has been a power In local motor
dom, Is thoroughly a reliable organiza'
ton. and the twin guarantees made by
Mr. Warwick must be considered abso'

and desirable features. made a splendiC

Marmon "a Upholstery
In Removable Sections

The mechanical construction OF the
Marmon "a is unique in several ways.
but much attention has been paid by
the builders to the development OF
other features.
An example is the removable uphol-
stery, that for the touring car being
made in sections. each constructed over
a mold on the bench and placed in the
car after the body has been finished.
The sections OF upholstery fasten on
hooks and are screwed down tight at
the bottom. 1t is claimed that by this
method the upholstery can be better
constructed and may be removed easily
for changing or cleaning.
