 Hogs are skyrocketing in the last week, and nobody dares say where the advance will stop. A week ago the limit was put at $17. now people are talking s2O. Heavy hogs brought $17.35, medium weight hogs sold up to $17.25, light hogs $17.10, pigs SIS. to s14.50, immune stock hogs at $15. to sl6. Apparently nothing is being sacrificed, and demand for immune stock hogs at the plants around the Stock Yards is very good, market up to 50 cents from Friday. Recent rains are making some hopeless look ing corn fields look much better, and if frost holds of the crop will be much larger than prospects indicated two weeks ago.
 Sheep and Lambs
 The market advanced a dollar or more after the middle of last week, and is 25 to 40 higher today. Five cars of lambs from Joseph Percy Ogden, Utah, first of the season from Utah, sold straight at s15.50, 6S lbs average. Native lambs sold up tc s15.15, and feeding lambs are worth practically as much as fat lambs Prime handy weight ewes would bring $1O. from killers, but most of the ewes go as breeders, up to S14.50.

Choose Your Cor NoW

Our advice to all who intend to buy fine cars
is to select that car at once. Many of you have
already decided on the Hudson Super-Six. More
of you viii choose il when you know.
At this moment, we think, you can get de-
livery at about any time you say. The prece-
dents show that in a month or two you cannot.
We urge this to save disappointment. To
avoid the ill-feeling that is caused by delay. The
Hudson has lost much goodwill in the past
VI ar by keeping thousands waiting. We shall
/ OF lose yours in that way if you'll act today.

New Hudson Features

This years Hudsons have shutter on the
front-a wonderful gasoline saver They have
motormeter, SO the driver can regulate engine
heat. They have a primer, which the driver
operates from the dashboard.
They have plated upholstery. They have
bodies which were first modelled in wax, then
sculptured to perfection. Then built by famous
craftsmen with every dainty touch
And still this car-the greatest car in the
world undersells many rivals. In fact, no other
front rank car sells anywhere near so low.

The general belief is that, whatever comes,
this will be a year of unexampled prosperity.
The farmers are getting high prices. The de-

And the evidence is that most lines Of industry
are going to be taxed TO the limit.

The Motor Situation
AS Viewed by the Hudson Company
Demand and Supply

Last Springs demand for the Hudson Super
Six was at least FIVE times supply.
Thousands of buyers waited weeks for their
cars. Thousands, after waiting long, turned to
other cars. And thousands, when they saw
our waiting list. were discouraged in advance.
We figure that $4,000 people were forced to
take cars which they wanted less
This Springs Outlook
All winter long we have kept our factories
running under pressure. Yet Hudson dealers
have only small stocks ahead.
Our production will be only one-ffh more
than last year. That is our factory limit.
Lack Of freight cars is holding back shipments.
There are frequent complete embargoes. No
Hudson dealer, before the active Spring demand,
can get any large reserve stock.
Even at this writing with deep snow on the
ground, we deliver many cars by road. Today
81 cars start for Columbus, Ohio-1el miles
away.

ents, is still used in Hudsons only. 1t is still
supreme. No other motor shows anywhere near
like performance or endurance.
Last year the Super-Six won all the worth
while records In speed in hill climbing, in
long distance and endurance it out performed
every rival. In endurance tests it exceed as
high as So per cent.
And now there nearly $4,000 Hudson
Super Skies in use. There are 10000 enthusi
astic owners Last year at this time there were
almost none, for the Super-Six was new.

This year. fine car buyers by the ters of thou
sands will demand the Super-Six. They know
its supremacy. Our claims of year ago have
been proved in hundred recorded tests
Last year, buyers forced to other cars did not
know what they missed. This year they do
know. Lesser cars will not content them. The
demand for the Super-Sx this year will be
overwhelming.

Clay Figures for Movies.

In a new style of moving pictures
little clay models of human figures
are used to represent the actors. The
result, when seen on the screen, Is
both startling and amusing, the tiny
clay figures seeming to walk, jump
and go through all the motions OF
talking and singing, as if actually
alive. Such pictures are called ami
mated sculpture. They owe their
origin to a woman sculptor of New
York, whose. clayfolk, as she calls
them, are photographed in a success
sion of slightly different poses, each
specially modelled to carry out the
action of a regular scenario or film
story. The process of molding the
figures is slow and laborious. as 16
different poses are required to make
foot OF film. Thus If the action OF
the story calls for four actors in the
picture, a film of ordinary length,
say 200 feet, requires the careful mold
ing by the sculptor's hands of at least
1880 different poses for the clay
figures In some scenes. however, only
slight changes are needed to give the
necessary animation, these being
quickly made by the deft touch of the
sculptor.-Popular Mechanics Maya

PLATOON AND SQUAD COLUMNS

Having learned the principle of the
advance as conducted by platoon or
squad columnS-the succession of thin
lines"-it is now necessary to see how
this is to be done. Being in skirmish
line, at the command, "Platoon col
umns, march, the platoon leaders
move forward through the center of
their respective platoonS. When the
company is, deployed, the platoon lead
er is posted in the rear of the line, in
order to control the fire of his men.
Having moved through the center of
his platoon, the men to the right of
the platoon leader Gas he passes
through the line) march to the left and
follow him in single file; likewise,
those on the left march to the right.
This constitutes a double column of
files, which is now conducted by the
platoon leader. Platoon guides follow
in the rear.
I The command. Squad columns,
march," is executed, in a similar way.
Each squad leader moves to the front,
and the members of his squad oblique
toward him and follow in single file at
easy marching distances.
To reiterate what was said in The
last article, platoon columns are profit
ably used where the ground is so diff
cult and the cover so limited as to
make it desirable to take advantage of
a few favorable routes. and no two
platoons should march within the area
of burst of a single shrapnel. Squad
columns are of value principally in ex-
pediting progress over rough or brush
green ground.
To deploy platoon or squad columns.
the command is, sAs skirmishers,
march" Skirmishers then move to the
right or left front successfully and
place. themselves in their original po-
sitions in line

company is thus assembled At the

rife charge. The Swedes were COM

them Charles and Mazeppa, who made
their way into Turkish territory. Near
