 Some Of the largest prices ever paid for horses have been expended for yearling colts.

But if that colt is damed and sired by thor oughbred stock it's future is certain. lt is worth real money the day it is born.
 And so with the motor car. No mattei how new the car is. if the stock from which it is made up is known for its efficiency; if the various parts in it's makeup are recognized as the best which the industry produces then the service to be rendered by that car is certain and cannot be disputed

While the ear itself is new in the trade the stock of which it is com posed is known to every motorist the country over as the best the market affords.
