Automobile values as at present established are largely due to the foresight and courage of Mir. John N. Willys, the president of this institution.
 He foresaw the universal use of the automobile and had the courage to produce quality cars in larger quantities than they had ever before been produced. Steadily increasing production made possible savings and economics which steadily reduced costs and repeatedly established new values. Eight years ago, with q net worth of little more than S.50,000 this com pany produced 465 cars. This year, with a net worth of over S6S, 100000 we must produce over 2a0,60 cars to fill our dealers contracts.

Foresight and Courage

It has required an enormous invest ment in plant and equipment to prepare for this enormous produC- ton.
 The prime requisite in the automobiie industry is still foresight and cour- age.
 Mr. Willys foresees a demand this year in excess of the possible supply.
 In addition to enormous investment in plant and equipment MT. Willy5 had the courage to contract long ago for enormous quantities of raw materials-$35 100000 worth al ready ID hand for this years record production. See all this reflected in the values we have to show you in the most comprehensive line of cars ever built by any one producer.

FUEL ADMINISTRATION URGES
Go DEGREES FOR HOME

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2s.-The Fed
eral Fuel Administration, as a part
OF its fuel conservation movement,
yesterday urged the American people
to adopt 6S degrees as a maximum
temperature for their homes. It said
that as arule American homes are
oyerheated, and a room where the
heat is more than SO degrees IL too
warm for health. and exposes occu.
pants to catarrhal diseass and pneu.
monla.
"A maximum OF health il preserv.
ed by a minimum temperature OF not
more than So degrees. and where per.
sons are actively employed several
degree sless, DIR. Eugene Eyman Fisk,
medical director OF the Life Extension
Institute said In o statement given
out by the Fuel Administration yes
terday. 1T is important that air be
kept in circulation. The American
public Is not yet educated to the fact
that air Is a tsimulant to the body
and promotes normal evaporation
and heat loss. Experiments show that
So degrees provides for the most
healthy temperature and the above
tiat is unhealthful."

Rrom The World Nov. 27.)

This week will see the completion
Of the harvest of an apple crop in
Berkeley County toJaling in round
numbers $4,000 barrels, including all
grades, and representing an income
to the county of approximately $780,
900. The crop is estimated to be
about a 80 per cent yield,-the 1917
total barrelage being approximately
one{hird of the ~barrelage which the
acreage of fruit in the county at this
time could produce were all trees to
bear to their maximum capacity at
one time. Those interested in figur-
ing possibilities point to the fact that
such a maximum yield,--while out
side the possibility of harvest,-would
bring into the county over a million
and a half dollars,-a sum twice as
large as the amount represented by
a full wheat crop at a price above
two dollars per bushel.
From various sources The World
has gathered statistics % accurate
as possible at this time, i'm respect
to the size, value and movement Of
this share of Berkeley County's
wealth Growers, shipping agents,
exchange agents and buyers have been
consulted with the end in view of
making Nhe report at this early date,
before an official report has been
made by law,+4as accurate as posi-
bic. The conclusions, apparently JUS
titled OF such information, are indi-
Gated below.
Small crop-Fine Prices.
Fruit men say the season as a
whole has been one OF the best in
years. For the first five weeks of the
season prices ranged high, end main
tanned that level until most of the
forks and better eating apples had
been moved to the markets or had
Deen bought here. Within the past
week a break has come in the mar
Ket which will probably not only keep

unless there be a sudden recovery

price for the season of all varieties
and grades.

crop, sixty to seventy per cent con-
sAsts of the two bess known varieties,

FORKS made UP almost 10000 barrels.
iofks sold uniformly between four
collars and four. and a half at the
station in the county; this one va
hsty therefore represented nearly
SoeV,00O. Some other varieties, ia
nous for their eating excellence or

me Black Twig, Winesap, and the De

Usual; but their dotal sale does, not
@pproaeh the value of the Yorks OF

eiaoie conservatism this year that
"ie growers will net as much from
uieir moderate crop as they did last
year with a full! crop. The explana'
toh lies in ID scale of nrfceS which
mas prevailed this year. The prices

was such that the prices vas almost

ONLY 100 TONS OF COAL IN

YESTERDAY AFTERNOON WITH MAYOR

The conference y%eteraay afternoon

act that M~artiusburg is soon TO face

J. Walter Barnes, state fuel admin.
istrator. brings about the desired re-
suits.
Only 100 Tons Here Now.
A fact which proves that the coal
situation acre Is acute now was
brought out by the statement that

all dealers in this city amounts 10
lbout 100 tons. This amuont IL all

burg, bun also of the county. unless
the state administrators comes to the
rescue.
Very Little Hard Coal
Hard coal Is a prize In M~artinsburg
today. Very few dealers have my
at all, and those who are so forthi-
rate. have only n limited amount,
The larger portion OF the dealers In
this city have only soft coal TO offer.
while a few have furrplce coal, q
better grade than tho ordinary brand
OF soft coal.
a Most Unfortunate Period.
1t Is a most unfortunate period for
a coal famine to strike anywhere at
this time. lMnrtinsburg has had bet
ter weather than can be expected at
this seasn OF the year, until about a
week ago, and there was sufficient
coal to supply the demands of the
people. but now. as King Winter Is

Wood entirely Exhausted.
Vt il understood that the supply OF
wood Is entirely exhausted. that TITO
dealers have no wood and that tho
chances Of securing any are very
small. This affects at least 1900
homes In Martihshurg. In the cour-
~. however. the wood shortage IL
not 80 bad. as the country people
Rave more opportunity OF securing
wood.
Look to Administrator.
Ut was apparently realized some
time ago by the government that the
country was due for q fuel famine,
and tor tlslt purpose administrators
IN tho different states OF the union
were appointed. 1t Is hoped that Adj
ministrator Barnes, of this state.
will be able to assist the people Of
