consumes six to seven tons of food
a year. 1t is easily figured that an
average of five acres is required to
furnish food for each horse. This
means a total of 130,000,000 acres of
land devoted to pastures and raising
hay-over 100000 square miles. This
means five States as big as Ohio, or
area larger than Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and Iowa, devoted to feeding horses
instead of people.
of course the releasing of all this
area from pasture uses and making
it available for the support of popu-
lation will be a tremendous economic
gain. In a dozen other ways the auto
mobile is adding wealth to the coun-
try, relieving urban congestion, MAX
ing men more efficient. The auto
mobile has done more to bring bet
ter roads than all other influences
combined and in this it is stabilizing
produce markets, decreasing costs of
transportation from the farm to the
railroad and making the food resources
elastic and responsive.
Il say the automobile is doing all
this, but in my judgment the tire
manufacturer is entitled to a lot of the
credit. AS one of them, I want my
share. Road tires have
helped to make automobiles depend
able and desirable. Without good tires
automobile sales would be restricted.
Good tires have made the automobile
industry possible. In the last analysis
then we tire makers are really re-
sponsible for a large part of the re-
markable economic effects I have just
mentioned. It's a satisfying thought
to me-"

Paige Orders Make
December Big Month

The year of 1916 will be finished by
the Paige-Detroit Car Company TN
der full head of steam and with just
as much momentum as when the calen-
dar called for midseason FORM
AS matter of fact the Paige Com
pany doubled its November business in
the number of cars made and delivered,
and extraordinary conditions now con-
front the company, according to the re-
port of Henry Krohn, sales manager.
THE business we are booking for
early delivery, commencing in Decem-
ber. is really phenomenal" says Mr..
krohn. Ordinarily big production with
an automobile factory starts in Janu,
airy, but the continuation of orders
from our dealers necessitates a pro-
duction activity in our factory which
will make December one of the big
production months of the year l have
never encountered anything like it be-
fore in my experience in the indus
try"
