One in Ten.

On every tenth farm in Penn
sylvania there is an automobile.
Farmers as a class have more
pleasure cars than any other So
cial or economic division of indi-
viduals in the commonwealth.
For the year just closed AL
per cent. of the cars registered
in the State were in the hands of
farmers. Growing popularity and
usefulness is given as the cause
for the big increaee in one year.
In the richer agricultural coun-
ties the number of cars owned is
very large.
In ten of the sixty-seven coun-
ties between fifteen and eighteen
per cent. of the farmers drive
their own cars, while in almost
half, more than ten per cent. own
cars. Several counties report
gains of $50 to 200 per cent. in
the number of cars on the farm,
while gains of 100 per cent. are
common.
