81 have ..., Six" says one man,
with motor the same size as yours"
But what about motor efficiency?
Hudsons have long been Skies. But
the Super-Six invention added 80 per
cent to the power and efficiency without
adding mite to the size.
A Six with the old limitations is long,
long way from the Super-Six, remember.
But the present Hudson owner knows
this:
The Super-Six, in all sorts of tests, has
out-performed other types. 1t has won
in speed, in endurance, in hill-climbing
and quick acceleration. 1t holds all stock
car records worth while.
Hudson also built Fights and Twelves
before the Super-Six invention. Those
types, no doubt, would have displaced
Skies, had the Super-Six not appeared
We, with others, had turned to other
types because of the unsatisfying limita-
tions Of the Six. Then we invented the
Super-Six and found it gave all that was
sought for by those who had developed
the multi-cyclinder cars.

The evidence is clear that the Super
Six best reduces friction. Until some
type eXcels it in that respect, it holds the
leading place. Every motorist must con-
cede that, whatever type he owns.
NOT WASTE ALONE.
Half the power was wasted in the old
type Six. We knew that, as did others.
And, like others, Hudson engineers
sought ways to correct it. We clung to
the Six because this invention made the
Super-Six excel.
By saving this waste, we get speed,
power and flexibility such as like-size
motors never showed before. We get
more than you need, or will use.
But we get, above all, endurance. The
iercest strains, continued thousands of
miles, have failed to show in the Super
Six the slightest evidence of wear.
We now combine this Super-Six motor
with the limit in beauty and luxury. No
effort has been spared to make the Hud-
son supreme in every detail We have
added to the car a gasoline saver in the
shape of radiator shutters which controls
the heat of the motor in part and thereby
overcome the poor qualities Of the pres
ent grade Of gasoline
1t is today the worlds great car. And
1t probably always will be- The Super
Six motor comes so close to perfection

sort of test. And, above all, in the test Of

HARRY SWACINA IS
 SIGNED BY DOBBERS
Will Play First Base for the Pels Today in Big Series
 at Atlanta

Hary swacina, first sacker for the Pratt City champions and formerly of the Mobile Guns and other formidable ag- gregations in organized ball, signed contract to play with the New Orleans Pelicans for the remainder of the sea- son yesterday. Harry departed with the Dobbers last night for Atlanta, and he will play the initial sack for the Crescent City team in the first game of the crucial series this afternoon.
 The former Gun was out at Redwood yesterday, working out with the Pels, and appears to be in excellent condition, He has been playing excellent ball with Pratt this season, and his hitting has been one of the real features of the win ming of the championship of the south By playing professional ball again, Harry will not be eligible to play with Pratt any more this season. He win thus be lost by the T. c. l. rag winners for the important series within the next two weeks with the Cincinnati champions
 Swacina has many more good ball games in his system and there is no doubt but that he will be of great aid to the Pels in the series with the Crack CTS, which will decide whether the Peis still have a chance for the gonfalon. The Pels and Crackers play three games.

 The market opened steady at decline of 1 to Il points under overnight selling orders attracted by the weakness of yes terday. There was also selling of Decem- Der and later positions by Liverpool pre- sumably hedging spot purchases in the south, but the early offerings were read- fly absorbed and the market soon turned steadier, with October relatively firm After showing net advance of 2 to 3 points, the market weakened again under a renewal of Liquidation and offerings increased following the publication of the weekly weather report, indicating that the crop had made satisfactory progress For a time there seemed to be very little support and prices sold off to 20. 76c for October and 20. 45c for January during the early afternoon or about 25 to "A points net lower.

 vate wire.)
 New Orleans, September 5.-A stead fer feeling prevailed in cotton today. There were declines but they were narrower and the market made less ready response to selling pressure. The explanation for the better tone was the strengthened technical position. the improved situation in the spot maxkets of the interior, the bad features 01 the weekly crop and weather reports of the government and the growing idea that under 20 cents fo1 the near months discounts the bearsh features now in sight.
 Around the opening there was fall of to 10 points which was succeeded by rise to a net advance of 10 to 12 points.
 This hard spot brought out the heav- fest selling of the day. under which prices fell to a net decline of 21 to 23 points.
 In the afternoon the market reacted about 20 points from the bottom. The heavy selling of the later months has of course created large short inter- est which in itself Is an argument for a reaction on the first favorable de- yelopments A part of this interest quite naturally at this time of the year, is in the way of hedges against the new crop Probably more of this sort Of selling will be seen as the move : ment of the new crop increases. but this will be offset, to some extent at least. by covering of older shorts. In the interior there is no longer pressure to sell spots and today's reports from

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, September 5-A muGil steadier feeling prevailed in the cotton market today than has been noted re- gently, and there was less ready re- spoDse to selling pressure The market acted technically strong, and shorts were inclined to cover on improved spot ac- counts, the bullish features in the weekly reports from the government regarding crop and weather conditions over the belt and the growing conviction that the cnd of the season deterioration was being g,r- erally encountered over the belt
 Around the opening prices were i to 10 points off then there was a reaction to a net advance of 10, to F points. This hard spot brought out the heaviest sell ing of the session which put prices to a level 21 to 23 points below yesterday 5 closing prices. In the afterrocn the tone was very steady on covering by shorts and the highest prices of the day were made toward the close, when the active months were II to IS points over yestcr- days final quotations. The close showed net advance of 12 to IS points.
 Hedge offerings appeared to be in smaller volume. Tn this connection, ru- mors from Liverpool of the possibility of that market resuming open future trad ing were of interest as it was recognized that some of the hedge selling which has been felt on this side would be trans ferred to Liverpool in such an event.

GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago September 5.-Cold weather stimulated a material advance today in the value of corn. Prices closed firm b e Pc net higher at $1.12M @l.13 De- cember. and sl.OsM May Wheat was entirely ignored by the majority of dealers and was held stable through the agencies of the federal food ad ministrator. Oats gained M9Bc net The outcome in provisions was set back of 7Q1Oc to S2c. Notwithstanding that the corn market encountered heavy selling on the upturn, commis- sion houses absorbed the offerings free ly and reactions were all followed by prompt rallies The fact was evident that with the crop late the plant was not making the progress it should to escape possibility of frost damage. In this connection, the weekly government crop report was construed as bullish, indicating that the bulk of the yield in a number of important states would not be out of danger from frost for a long time yet. Besides, northwestern reports of freezing temperature were current from the outset.
 Oats developed some Independent firmness aside from the strength due to the corn bulge.
 Millers bought fair quantities of wheat at government prices. It was said demShd for flour showed material in- crease
 Provisions weakened as a result of a sharp drop in hog quotations.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, September 5.IFurther snow CTS fell in the dry sections of Texas last night From the opening the trade have looked for reaction from the severe break of yesterday and have been as sisted by some large buying of octoper' supposed to be for those who have been heavily long of. that position on the benel that it would be as difficult during the season to bring cotton to New York as it was during the summer
 It is apparent that the movement or cotton for export this season will De on the lines of the least expenditure Of ton mage, and if the cotton at the north ports can be exported from time to tune as if has been during the summer, every effort would be made by the railroad board of control to facilitate the move ment of cotton.e
 This transportation problem is as much a part of the price the south will receive for it's cotton as the size of the crop
 The weekly weather report read better than expected, so that the hedge selling exceeded the western and local ouylng for reaction until late in the after noon

TRADING IRREGULAR' ON STOCK EXCHANGE.
Money Market Important Factor in Effecting
 Readjustment

New York, September 5.-Stocks recov- -ered in large part today from their se- we're reversal of the preceding session, but the rally met with considerable oppo- sitfon, and was not accomplished without temporary impairment to important is- sues. Pennsylvania, for example, dropped to 49ss, it's lowest quotation in over score of years, before rallyng to 51?.
 Other rails were heavy or irregular most of the time, but Union Pacific and other seasoned transportations held the greater part of their l to points ad- vances. Additional railroad reports dis closed further losses in income, New Ha- ven's minimum quotations of the pre- vious day finding partial explanation in a decrease of almost $SOO,OOO for July.
 The money market was perhaps the most potent factor in effecting read justment of prices. Call loans were of fered at 6 per cent, but the rate dropped to when no bids were forthcoming. Later per cent ruled steady and some belated loans were made at 512 per cent. The action of the treasury officials in depositing funds of the allies with local institutions evoked favorable comment and should go far toward rectifying last weeks adverse bank statement. Other events at Washington also induced short covering especially in steel.
 Pressure relaxed almost entirely in the final dealings, but United States Steel, which sold up from 1045s, it's low of the morning to 10914, was forced back to be- low 1o8, cloing at 107, ent gain of SIS points.
 Trading in bonds was active. Liberty 31ss supplied large part of the dealings at the unusual variation of 99.62 to 99.90e Total bond sales, par value. aggregated s46i5,0O0.
 Government bonds, old issues, were un- changed on call.
