INCENDlARIES BURN CROP
ATTORNEY GENERAL FORD
either |. w. w. or Personal Enemy
Destroys Seasons Work on
FIathead Ranch

Helena.-Attorney General 8. G.
Ford is the victim of either l. W. w.
or enemies on the Flathead Indian res
ervation. With n. p. Walters of this
city Mr.. Ford owns a ranch on the res
ervation. 1t was seeded to wheat this
year and while the season was dry,
the crop turned out much better than
expected.
1t was cut and stacked about three
weeks ago and there were 10 stacks of
grain in the yard. One night recently,
just before the threshing outfit arriv-
ed, the 10 stacks We're burned up and
there is every indication that the fire
was of incendiary origin.
The loss is half covered by insur-
ance which was taken out when it
was learned the threshing outfit would
not be along for several weeks.

american automobile manufacturers

| weeks.
More automobile engineers, manu-
factnrers and buyers from abroad will
attend the national shows in New
York and Chicago this year than ever
mate. and special efforts are being
made to interest them IN American
ears and accessories
Many foreigners have been in Amer
lea for months visiting factories and
studying methods Of manufacturing
and marketing as well as points Of
| construction.
Practically the entire output of cars
in the warning nations Of Europe Is
being taken for war purposes and the
nations which formerly manufactured
ears for expectation are npow putting
only a small percentage Of the output
on the market
This is sending neutral foreign deal
ers to America for cars
That American manufacturers. ut
the present rate of output increase,
would soon be capable of supplying
The neutral world with both pleasure
and commercial cars, is conceded by
American engineers.
The big question which now con-
fronts manufacturers IS to get the
market and in case Of peace, to hold
it.
Many manufacturers are studying
European sales method with the view
Of meeting foreign competition, not
only with a product either equal or
superior to foreign cars, but also with
the kind of sales pethods Europeans
are accustomed to.

Cadillac Company Outgrows
Its Present Facilities

Announcement has just been made
by the Cadillac Motor company that it
has acquired in Detroit nearly 80 acres
of land, wherein ii Will erect Il large
plant to house all OF its manufacturing
activities. While the present Cadillac
factory is recognized throughout the
automobile industry as being the finest
equipped motor car plant in the world,
the companys business has uutgrown
present facilities. 1t is also desirable
to concentrate all operations of produc
ton in one plant.
The site of tn" proposed new plans.
on which il is expected building opera
tons Will begin next year, is regarded
as one of the most adYantagconslN sit
uated in Detroit. It's western boundary
is the junction of the Michigan Central

The land is said to have cost APP

output. it appears that 20 per cent of
the nations autos We're made in Mich
igan. Ohio ,and Indiana come next in
order, these three states making 80
per cent of all cars manufactured in
America.
Automobile registrations have al
ready passed the 100000 mark Some
large American cities have more au-
tomobiles than several European coun-
tries.
1t is estimated our exports for 1916
have tataled a out s1os,oo0,Ooo.
Truck production for 1915 is esti-
mated at about $4,000. The total pro-
duction of automobiles for the first
half of 1916 was only a little behind
the entire years output for 1915.
The clover leaf or compact three or
