The sturdy quality, the splendid value,
the proven dependability and durability
OF the present models will be continued
Studebaker daily sales continue to
show that the public is quick to recog-
nize, and always to give its support to
an honest, we'll made product, the value
and service of which have been proven
in actual performance.
Their power, their easy riding fea-
lures, their freedom from trouble have
made Studebaker cars leaders in every
part of the country where automobiles
are subjected to the hardest USE
The most recent proof of their dura-
bility is the performance of two Stude-
baker cars taken directly from a dealers
stock on the trip of the San Francisco
Ad Club to the recent St. Louis con-
vention.
Both these Studebaker cars came over
the snow filled passes of the Rocky
mountains, through seas of hub deep
gumbo mud on the Western Plains and
finished in perfect running condition.

Further evidence of Studebaker de-
pendability is shown by the popularity
of Studebaker cars in California, where
people test and prove their cars by con-
tinuous service every day in the year
and where there are more Studebakers
registered than any car selling at over
$500.
In Detroit where 800 of all cars
are made, where thousands of people are
directly connected with the industry,
where they know the materials and
workmanship that go into cars and the
organizations behind them there are
more Studebakers registered than any
other car selling at over $500.
The foregoing is proof that people
who know cars from service rendered
and people best equipped to Judge auto
mobile values prefer Studebakers.
There could be no better guide than
this for you in purchasing your car.
More than 100000 Studebaker cars
in every part of the world have made
good in the hands of their owners = as
yours will make good for you.

To Load No Cars for One
 Week Is Plan Suggested
''By Hop''

St. Louis, February 19.-What would be known as fast week. was suggested to representatives of all railroads entering St. Louis in conference on the freight congestion situation here today by c. W. Nelson of the special car committee of the American Railroad association. His idea was that during such week ship pers would not be required to load cars.
 This, he said, would first give the rail- road opportunity to clear the freight houses and terminals, and latterly would lead to the lifting of embargoes on many classes of freight

Big Land Suit to Be Tried
 in Lauderdale Court

Florence, February 19.-(Special) A suit involving more than 1000 acres of land will be heard during the March term of the Lauderdale county circuit court in this city. Frank M. Perry, prominent business man here, is the defendant, and the suit was filed some days since by the Lauder dale Power company. The land is known as Allentown" and lies just west of Florence.
 The litigation grows out of con- tract entered into in 1914 by MT. Perry and the power company for the devel- opment of this tract of land. The con- tract has been repudiated by MT. Perry on the grounds that the power com pany has not lived up to it's agree ments and an option sold to N. c. El- ting and w. L. Reeder on the same land by MT. Perry.
 By the latter part of this month the filter plant, which has been installed by Florence since its purchase of the water plant. will be in commission and this city will have pure water. The filter has a capacity of 100000 gallons a day from the two filters and provision has been made to double the capacity when the need arises.
 The plant has cost in its present state $25,589.54 and when completed will have cost about $40,000, and will be one of the most complete plants of the kind in the state.

HOMESTEAD MINE BEGINS LARGE
 OPERATIONS
RESULT OF RICH STRIKE MADE SHORT TIME AGO OCCASION BIG AND NEW OPERATING FACILITIES TO BE INTRODUCED.
iFrom Fridays Daily.)

J. H. Shocklcy, general manager oi
 the company operating the Home stead group at Walker, returned yes
 terday from New York City, and made announcement of a new depart ure by which the property will be eX- tensively developed hereafter, by an outlay of several thousand dollars in providing a large equipment. The new hoist, air compressor, pumping plants and other machinery for deep development arc now in action. The old prospecting plant has been dis carded, after determining what is con sidered as one of the most dcsirably rated gold-copper propositions in tho Walker field.
 The condition now being entered shows a strong and regular ore body in which chalcopyrites predominatc, and this feature Mir. Shockley stated yesterday practically insures perman- cncy at depth. This rich shoot was struck a few months ago in driving a drift from an old shaft, and further exploration has only intensified the possibilities, sinking reveal ing better ore content, and the body increasing in size also.
 The Homestead is the mineral pillar of that belt, and was first operated nearly half century ago, for its free milling content. Its sale was con summated to Mir. Shockley, an cx- engineer after the old work ings were cleaned out, and every foot sunk has added to its attractive pos abilities. The few operators behind the Homestead arc to carry out de- velopment on permanent basis and production for the present is of only secondary consideration.

ARCHAEOLOGY A NEW
 FIELD FOR WOMEN

LAWRENCE, Kansas, March l6.- Women bacteriologists are preferred to men in comparatively many lab oratorics and for that reason bacter- iology is offering new field for women. Several women bacteriolo- gists from the University of Kansas now are bactcriological diagnostic- ans in big hospitals or are doing bacteriological work in other labora- tories.
 Every few months the university receives a call for a woman bacter- iologist, but the demand for such women workers far exceeds the sup ply, says Dr. F. II. Billings, professor of bactcriology in the university. Bacteriological work requires pains taking and accurate effort and pc culiar deftness that makes women particularly efficient in bactcriological work. University bacteriologists point out that the work offers chance for original reseaFch work and thus, in addition to the fair sal aries paid, give a novelty and chance for personal development that teach ing frequently does not offer a wom- an. The work requires at least two years study of bacteriology.
 There are about 20 women study ing bacteriology in the University of Kansas. Any woman taking up bac- teriology should have at least one term i'll chemistry.

DEATH SUMMONS
 AN ESTIMABLE WOMAN
(From Saturdays Daily)

Relatives in Prescott of Mrs. Joseph E. Brockman were shocked yesterday on receiving news of her death which occurred at Ludlow, Cal, on Thurs day night after brief illness.
 Mrs. Brockman was the eldest daughter of Mrs. Margaret E. Col qucttc, who resides near Prescott, and was born in this county. Her character was beautiful, and her per sonality made her many warm friends. Gifted with a generous nature, she was a universal favorite, and it is needless to say her death is deeply regretted.
 Mir. Brockman telegraphs that the remains will arrive in Prescott on Sunday afternoon, and at the requcs, of his wife burial will be in Simmons cemetery, where other relatives have been laid away. The Brockmans re- sided for many years on Cherry creek, removing to Needles, Cal, afterward, where Mir. Brockman sold out his large cattle interests. Surviving are the husband and eight children.

 The New Year was revived some months ago, and is situated within a few hundred feet of the Little Jessie. A small association of Arizona min ing men is behind the property, which is owned by H. K. Bchn of Phoenix, a resident of Prescott for many years.
