HALF CROP SIGHT
WITHOUT MORE RAIN

Stevensville, July 2s.-(Special.)-
The first reports which gained circu-
lation that the drought had ruined the
grain crops on the dry land farms were
overestimated. Dry land crops. which
were thought to be total loss, will
without rain for the rest of the sea-
son produce a half crop.
A Well-informed rancher in speak
ing with the Muscular man last night
stated that the half crop that would
be yielded in the non irrigated sections
would be of better quality than had
the rains given the fun crop. He stat
ed that short crop on q dry land
farm always gave better quality re-
suits. and that that would be the lot
of the Bitter Root dry land farmers.
For a time this summer things
looked bad for the dry landers and it
was common talk that many of them
would not get the seed back on their
original investment. and for that mat :
ter, the best of seed was used. How
ever, the more conservative have al
ways maintained that a half crop
would be secured despite the pro-
longed dry spell, and now it is gem
orally agreed that half crop will be
harvested

Hamilton, July 2S.-(Special.) 1.-The

and nearly two months OF drought. The

Do You Know Why Time Chandler Has
Passed and Left Behind One Ore,a Lon
Line Of Other Well known

There perhaps several reasons,
all OF which would appear very
clearly if you had the opportunity
or took the time to analyZe the
history and business policies of the
automobile industry. But there is
one big basic reason which to you
as a motorist is the essential rea-
son, and that one reason is this
that ever since the first Chandler
car was designed and built and
marketed four yearsaGo last month,
the Chandler has offered the finest
of design, construction and equip
ment at the lowest possible price.
The Chandler today offers this
excess of value, this dependa bility
OF service, just as distinctly as at
any time ii, the four years past.
1t took some little time, Of
course, for great part CT the
motoring world to pin it's conf
Gence to this newcomer. Men rec
ognized, indeed the whole trade
recognized, that a new type Of car
which must make large appeal had
come into the market. The trade
knew that 1T was the product of
men who knew motor building and
general motor car design and who
were experienced in the best manu-
featuring practices.
J Still and remember this was
more than four years ago the
trade said a newcomer could not
win out.
Nevertheless, there were a few
hundred Chandler cars manufac-
tured and sold in those months of
the summer and fall of Nineteen
Thirteen.
And how distinctly the Chandler

with the right type of car, the
Chandler Company has stood firm
ly by this type of car. 1t has con-
tinued to develop this car thruout
these four years until today it APP.
proximates perfection In construc-
ton and performance.
We cannot convey to you In tho
printed page any full conception
of the superiority of the Chandler
motor, but any one of nearly forty
thousand Chandler owners could
put you alongside him at the
wheel and show you Chandler SUI
periority.
We would be more than pleased
to show you this superiority; we
would be more than pleased to
make clear to you the excellence of
the Chandler car in all its details.
what it means In satisfactory road
performance that the Chandler
motor is equipped with Bosch High
Tension Magnetic as is the Pierce
Arrow, Marmon, Locomobile, Win
ton, White, Stuff and the Mercer;
what 1T means to you that the
Chandler car is built with a bio
solid cast aluminium crank case
extending from frame to frame and
giving absolute Rightly to the motor
mounting; that it is equipped with
silent chains for driving the motor
shafts and with annular bali bear
ings in transmission and differen-
tial and rear wheels.
We would like to show you what
these items of design and equip
fnent and many others, typical of
the highest priced high-grade cars,
mean to Chandler performance.

has won its place in the very front
rank of fine motor cars is reflected
in the Chandler sales records of
Nineteen-Fourteen, Fifteen, Six
teen and Seventeen.
Month by month and season
after season turnout these four
years the Chandler has moved for
ward and forward, until today it's
leadership could hardly be ques-
toned.
Your own observation of hiah-
grade cars in service in almost any
market in America would show you
clearly how surely the Chandler
has come into leadership.
This leadership has been built on
the Right Car at the Right Price.
Back in 1914 men we're very GEN
orally inclined to recognize that
the Chandler was the right car at
the right price and about two
thousand of them had the courage
to make sure of their convictions.
Those two thousand won thou
sands more to their convictions, so
that in the year following nearly
seven thousand men chose the
Chandler for their.car.
And the car went on making
friends by it's performance in the
hands of these owners.
+ T.
The whole country rnarveled at
this wonderful motor, at it's power,
it's fexibility, its lite and getaway,
and it's endurance. The whole
Chandler chassis came to be recoe-
nized as great mechanism.
So last year, 1916, it was hardly
surprising to those who really knew
the Chandler that more than tl1ir-
teen thousand motorists chose this
