SAX0NS HELP IN

El Paso Dealer Donates
Cars to Quartermas-
ter Corps.

Saxon motor ears are playing n
part in the chase of the United
states troops after pancho Villa. ban
dit and Mexican revolution leader.
Just as the sturdy race which gave
them their name always played u
prominent part in the warfare of the
British isles and the northern part Of
Europe, so are the motor cars giving
their best to the service of Uncle SAM
along the sluggish Rio GRANGE AT
I'll Paso. Texas. where a large num-
ber of troops have been stationed
since the border mobilization in 1918,
three Saxon motor cars were sold to
nitod States army officers before the
pursuit of villa and they were used
by the officers foI trips about the
border.

n practical use for their motor cars in
patrol duty and MESSENGER service in

pressed into service because they Gov

because the sand and mesquite of the

At the same time l.. O. Gavin,
Saxon dealer at El Paso placed three
other machines at the service OF the
government lie took ears frCm his
stock for this purpose and offered
them to the army officers. Mr. ca
vim hesitated Il hit at dong this, bur
finally decided to give them without
consulting the factory. When he
wired what he had done he had the
unqualified approval Of H. w. Ford,
president and general manager OF the
Saxon company
Mr.. Ford Is Il strong believer in pre-
paredness and has himself taken an
active interest in the movement for

1916 PRODUCTION
UP 400 PER CENT
Motor Car Production This
Year Exceeds Factory's
uonGloodXH

For the first quarter of this year,
Detroit motor car manufacturers pro-
duced 23S,07G vehicles including pas
senger cars, commercial types and
electrics. outside of Detroit. but still
IN the large production area in the
vicinity, other big makers swelled the
total to 32S,366 The WHY'S Overland
company. Toledo, was the largest
contributor to the totals with the ex-
ception of Ford, of course. The last
figure named includes the output OF
factories in the cities Of Toledo. Lam
sing. Jackson and Flint in addition
to Detroit.
ON the above basis, there seems no
doubt at all that the motor car in
dustry as whole this year will build
cars to total far over a million. The
entire output of all the car building
plants in the United States for the
first three months of 1915 was ap-
proNimately 100000 machines. hence
even the number built by Detroit
plants for the first quarter this year
Is over twice that of last year for the
entire industry. Add the production
of the factories scattered in other
parts of the country to the totals for
Detroit, Mich, and Toledo, and it
NOuih appear lIdl lllt com Dlltu OUT
put for the first part of this year is
nearly four times that of 1915.
This jump of nearly 400 per cent
would be almost unbelievable were 1t
not for the specific production figures
of some of the enormous producers
such as Ford, Overland, Buick, Stude-
baker, Maxwell. Chevrolet, REQ.
Saxon, Cadillac, etc.
Ford's production for the first three
months set new record for even
that great factory. for a total Of 49,
OO5 Ford model rs were turned out.
This total was made up of 44,365 in
January, 4G,311 in February and S.
1923 in March. The latter month was
the greatest in Ford history and Is
about 5000 better than March, 1915.
No one doubts now that Ford will at
tain the 100000 mark set for the
present fiscal year, nor that the 1917
output will reach a million as pre-
dicted by the Ford officials.
January. February and March re-
suited in the building of 47,465 over
land machines as compared with H.
245 fer the first quarter of 1915. This
wonderful increase has resulted from
the adding of several enormous struc-
lures to the mammoth Toledo works.
How the total was attained is indi-
Gated by the comparative figures for
each of the three months for the two
years.

This is IA question around which

With this question is another of even

far in 1916 the gain in production
over the corresponding months of

Of half "a million cars as the annual

HOUSEWIVES DAILY
ECONOMY CALENDAR
PROVING RECIPES.
By FRANCES MARSHALL.

In various household magazines and in
some OF the newspapers there are depart
ments containing tested recipes, that is
to say. all the recipes printed therein
have been tried out, and the fact that
they are published means that they are
workable.
You ought never to try a new recipe
unless you can prove 1t yourself That
is to say, you ought to read 1t wisely, to
catch any flaws in 1t. 1t Is said that
nobody could possibly copy any docu-
ment as long as the Declaration Of Inde-
pendence without making mistakes. and
1t Is a fact, sad though 1t may be. that
there are mistakes in even the best Of
recipe books. No matter how carefully
they are prepared and printed some err
rors creep IN.
Now of course 1t is not easy to catch
errors of a minor sort by simply reading
a recipe over. But you can tell whether
1t Is right in its main points simply by
using your experience as basis OF COM
parison.
For instance, two level teaspoonfuIs Of
baking powder are allowed TO one cup
full Of flour. for cakes. mufins, and other
batters. Equal quantities OF -four and
liquid make a thin batter, for fritters,
and twice as much -four as liquid is usu-
ally used for cakes and mufins. There
are exceptions to this rule, of course. but
that is the rule, nevertheless.
Good sense will tell you II spices are
given in right amounts. In one recipe
which a young bride foolishly and faith
fully followed a teaspoonful of pepper
was called for. As only a couple OF
quarts OF soup were made by the recipe,
the result was an impossibility. OF course
the measurement was a salt spoon, and
any one but a very young or inexper-
enced cook would have caught the mis-
take Immediately.
II you paste or copy recipes that you
read in your recipe book or cabinet, al
ways mark them with a cross or other
mark when you have tried them And II
you find some minor change improves
the result. change the recipe to suit your
discovery. Before you know 1t you will
thus have a stock of tested recipes which
will well repay you for your trouble in
proving them.

SATURDAY. september 80, 1915.

Saturday, September 80, 1919.
Another untavorable day, according to
astrology. Saturn, Mars. Uranus, and
Venus are all In evil place.
The stars presage danger from love af-
fairs. During the coming months ro-
nance will lead many into misfortunes OF
various sorts, the seers declare. The
middle-sged and even the old will be
foolish.
There is a sign most forbidding for
men who have won high place and be-
gun to enjoy the fullness OF years. The
winter threatens ill-health and many
deaths among persons Of prominence.
A severe accident In a mine is fore
shadowed Loss of life and property will
be large.
Day after day the stars appear to give
notice that military affairs will occupy
attention in the United States, but the
chief concern will be expenditures and
management of army matters, both of
which will be criticised widely.
New problems will assail States on the
Mexican border and these will cause local
scandals and unhappiness.
This is likely to be rather an unsatis-
factory day for theatrical affairs The
stars indicate small audiences due to
storms or to some external conditions.
Again the prophecy is made that all the
old leaders In the United States. whether
statesmen, authors, reformers. financiers,
or society women will vanish In the next
five years to make way for the new or
der of things.
Growth Of religious consciousness is in
dicated by the stars. Old established
churches will benefit elightly. but new
standards of living will be accepted. the
seers declare.
There Is an ging sign for art in
the United States. A great sculptor will
gain recognition.
Those who read the stars announce
that the Jews are to attain distinction In
national affairs, and many honors are
promised both men and women.
Persons whose birthdatc it is may have
quarrcls and litigation in the new year.
They should not make any changes.
Their affairs may cause anxiety but they
can overcome troubles by attention to
business.
Children born on this day may be i'm
petuous and headstrong. They are likely
to be talented, but they may not sue
ceed in business.

asked Puss. For some reason he felt
sure it was, so he was not at all sur
prised when she answered that she was
And do you still run the little shop"

Yes, my good Sir Cat" she replied
"and I have a very fine pair Of red

Puss Junior jumped of his seat and

"Oh. my dear madam" cried Puss, the

that I saved these boots all these years

left.
But I don't care so much about the
boots cried Puss Junior, 'I want so
much to find my father. Can't YOU tell
me where he lives?"
Mrs. Grundy looked puzzled. II did

voice. seeing how disappointed poor lit

''If you can." said Puss, "I will give
you twenty pounds for the boots"
you wait here and try them on" she
said, while I run across the way and

will know" While she was gone Puss
put on the boots, which fitted him per-

looked out, counting the minutes until
