FARMERS WILL BE BIG
BUYERS OF CARS NOW
Promise of Abundant Harvests
Makes Enormous Market
for Automobiles.

The farm market for passenger
cars, always a great factor in the
motor car industry, assumes a create,
Importance than ever this season.
The promise Of abundant harvests,
with possibly a worlds record for
oats. and the prevailing war condi-
lions make the potentialities of the
tarm market greater than they have
ever been in the history of our indus
trv," says Harry NJ. Jewett, president
Of the Paige Detroit Motor Car COM
pany. Already 40 per cent of all the
motor cars in America are owned 10y
farmers, this large proportion being
due to the great utilitarian value u,
passenger car. The farmer finds d
thousand and one uses for an auto
mobile. Give him financial ease ana
he will buy literally.
The manufacturers of passenge,
cars are fully alive to the situation
and. while they will in no way curtail
their distribution to cities or nesicc,
the city buyer, they will pay especial
attention to the farmer. There Wiz.
undoubtedly be great activity in the
fall in this direction.
While the maker of passenger cai s.
Ike any other manufacturer. wants ia
increase his sales and broaden nis
market with good serviceable car
he is doing to distinct service to til,
country in a constructive and econ
nomic sense.
THE production and distribution OF
food has become one Of our greatest
problems. We must have more ioou,
greater crops and better distributor,
and we must conserve and avoid
waste. Here is where the utilitarian
and economic value of the passenger
car plays big part. Five acres oi
tillable land are required to support
horse: three acres TO support a man.
II each automobile takes the place o,
only one span Of horses, the 1000
cars in use release 37,000,000 acres u.
land for production of food stuffs for
more than $4,000 900 men--the total
force employed in the war by all the
allies.

FREE INSPECTION
OF OWNERS AUTOS
Peerless, Liberty and Case Car
Owners Are the Ones to
Be SO Favored.

Messrs. Caya & Parker of the Rat
cliff Sanders Co, auto department re-
port that they have inaugurated n
plan of service for the owners of Peer
less, Liberty and Case cars which they
are sure Will at once meet with ap-
proval. Satisfied owners being up
permost in their mind, they wish to
have all present owners OF the afore-
said cars bring their cars to the Rat
cliff Sanders service station located nj
1928 East First Olodge) street for
free inspection.
MIR Caya when talking over his PLAN
the other day said, mo. doubt owners
OF cars will appreciate what. this kind
OF service means IN the way OF low
upkeep TO them, for mole hills which
eventually grow into mountainous re-
pair bills when cars are neglected will
be eliminated by careful inspection,
thus nipping them in the bud"
owners of Peerless cars are spe-
cially invited to bring In their cars this
week, as Peerless factory service man
will be In attendance all week, who
Will give the cars thoro inspection.

Arthur II. Robins. who points to an
equally interesting anticipation of
modern slang In one OF Charles Wes-
ley's hymns The hymn begins
Author of faith" and is No 45S In
the old Wesleyan Methodist hymn
book. The fourth verse reads:
Satan his thousand arts essays,
His agents all their powers employ

FEW THRU THE "DRY" NET
Arrests In Kansas of ViOlatOrs From
Here Run $50 Month.

Patroling the state line for boot
leggers for several years before the
passage of the bone-dry law in Kan
sas was comparatively an easy task
for Kansas authorities. But now.
since the law is In full operation,
the difficulties have increased greatly.
Roy X. Hubbard, assistant attorney
general of Kansas for the district of
Wyandotte county, told of his meth
ods that have resulted in the arrest
OF more than one thousand viOlators
since last March.
Before the advent of the bone~dry
law we just had to watch for the pro-
fessional bootlegger who we believed
was carrying too large quantity out
in the state for his own use." Mr..
Hubbard said, But now It's
crime for any man or woman to have
liquor with them. except for sacra-
mental or medicinal purposes, and so
our hunt is enlarged to every person
who crosses the line with liquor.
Keep Watch on Liquor Houses.
1.-The hunt begins at the wholesale
houses in Missouri. There our men
keep a lookout tor the purchaser
when he departs with his product.
He is followed to the Union station,
il he takes a train, and If he has a
motor car he is followed to it also.
THE wholesale men got busy. They
had professional trunk checker who
escorts the goods to the station, and
in view of our men all the time buys
the ticket and checks the goods
This is to confuse us in the matter of
description, for the man who checks
the liquor does not get on the train
at all. And just before the train
pulls out he meets the real purchaser
outside and slips him the ticket and
checks Now we ride with the booze,
and when the purchaser claims his
property at its destination he is taken
in custody.
Sometimes we telegraph authori-
ties at the destination of the liquor
and let them arrest him.
Motor Car Method Unsafe, Too.
"Many of the thirsty ones of Kan
sas have decided the motor car to be
the best chance to avoid detection.
But usually our car keeps pace with
the booze car and soon brings in the
men.
Ordinary citizens who believe it is
safe to carry a few quarts in their
suitcases or in baskets now regret
their judgment in Jail. Our arrests
range from 200 to 225 a month"

does release the horse either entirely
or so that il can be put to work In
the raid while crranGs are being done
by the car or light produce taken u.

tho biggest step that can be taken in
the direction of efficient and economic
food production. The passenger car
is the farmers most valuable helper
and hence it is going to play a iarRer
part than ever In our efforts 10 mako

before it."
