FRIDAY ............,.APRiL 20
Omaha daily bee., 1917-06-05

VOU have watched automobile prices
i 60 up and up. !
The newspapers have been full of
price-raising announcements. Already
forty-four manufacturers have been
forced to make advances of from SIS
to $500.
These, we believe, were honestly
necessary. They were based almost
entirely on the increased cost of parts
and raw materials.
Now materials and parts are still
advancing-and in conjunction with
the proposed government war tax, will
unquestionably force motor car prices
to still higher levels. \
Here is where The Nash Motors
Company has tremendous advantage
over companies which merely assemble
cars. Ninety.threc per cent Of every
Jefery Six is made right in the Nash
plant, from raw materials.
SO you see we are practically I'M
affected by the rise in the cost of parts.
And although during the past six
months all raw materials have ad-
vanced in cost 20 to 50 per cent we
have been protected on the raw ma
terial side, too.
Because we build ninety-three per
cent of every Jeffery Six in our own
plant we buy these materials far in
advance and in huge quantities.
That is why in the face Of these
many abnormal conditions, and in the
face Of the tremendous advance made
in materials, it does not seem possible
Omaha daily bee., 1917-06-05

thatwe can sell the Jefery Six at Sl465
for long-certainly not after our pres
ent stock of materials, bought over
year ago, is used up.
This is your opportunity! While we
maintain this present price on Jeffery
Six you can simply figure that you save
a clear $3.50 to 5000 by buying now.
For if the Jefery Six were to be ad-
vanced in price in keeping with prices
advanced by makers Of other fine cars,
you would have to pay just that
amount to get this wonderful car.
So we say-act now. There are two
good reasons why you should see your
nearest Jeffery dealer and place your
order at once. The first is that you
have an unparalleled opportunity to
buy this Jeffery Six-the finest car in
its field at from $3.50 to $500 below
its real market value in view of present
conditions. ~
The second reason is that the de-
mand for this car is surprising our
expectations. We are hard pressed
now to fill orders. The steadily rising
prices of competing cars are driving
home every day in the minds of people
the truly unusual value of Jeffery Six.
Now as to the car itself. There is
little we need to say about it to you
now. You know the name this
Jefery Six has won for being mar
velously performing car. Nocar in its
price class can match the service it will
give you.
Ask any Jeffery owner what he
thinks of his Jeffery Six. He will tell
Omaha daily bee., 1917-06-05

you that he has found it practically
impossible to wear this car out. He
will tell you that after long, hard
service the body is tight and that repair
costs are negligible. ~
He will tell you, too, that the motor
keeps ft-that its fexibility and quick
pickup seem to improve with use. He
will tell you that its streamlines are
strictly the vogue. He will tell you
that its secondhand value is higher
after several years wear than of most
cars of its price class which have seen
only half that service.
Remember-this is the Jeffery Six
revised, improved and backed with
unqualified endorsement, by The Nash
Motors Company. We cannot main
tain this price indefinitely. That is
certain.
So you see it is the wise thing, the
shrewd thing, the bit Of good business
on your part to see your nearest
Jefery dealer and place your order for
Jeffery Six at once.
Do this now. Don't delay. Then
you will know that you have bought
the biggest value in the motor Car
market today.
One more word! See your dealer
place your order-get your Jeffery Six
at $1465.

Present Low Price of Jeffery Six Can Only Be
Maintained While Our Stock of Materials Lasts

So this is your opportunity if you act
quickly. When our materials, bought
ouer a year ago, are gone, you can buy
this Jefery Six, North $50 to $500,
more, at the present lou price. Take
advantage of this saving now. See
this car. Place Your Order at Once.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERTON, WIS. June 8, 1917.


Cool temperatures have prevailed
largely during the week and tobacco
growers have begun to fear late
transplanting season. A few farmers
have plants now ready for the fields,
but there is general complaint of
small plants that will require the best
of weather conditions to bring them to
proper size by the end of the month.
So much wet weather has delayed the
work of preparing the fields, as it has
all farm work, so that later it will
mean crowding times in transplanting
the tobacco crop! Sunshine days and
plenty of them are necessary to relieve
the situation.
The warehouse work of handling last
seasons crop is drawing slowly to a
close, though few packers will not
see the end of the packing season for a
few weeks yet.
There are abundant reasons why the
movement of cured leaf has dropped to
very small proportions.
The shipments out of storage reach
100 cases and cars of bundles from
this market to all points since last re-
mort

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, May 28, 1917.
Transplanting, which began in the
Connecticut Valley last week. is pro-
crossing slowly. Under the most fav-
orable circumstances the last of the
crop will not be in the fields before
July l, which means that thousands of
acres will be exposed to frost danger in
September The fact that only small
acreage will be set out in May does not
in itself cause concern. Experience
has shown that late-set crops average
fully as good as earlier ones in respect
to quality. The pinch comes in setting
out so much tobacco within the limited
space of time in which the work must
be done this year. Another difficulty
is the procuring of a supply of plants.
The cool weather, especially the nights,
keeps the plants in the seed beds in
check in May, but by June the sun is
so high that the rapid growth of the
plants in the beds is serious problem
for the average grower. With the
large grower, who generally has hum
dreds of thousands of plants to spare,
the case is different.

NEW YORK, June

NEW ORK, June Z, 1917.
The National convention which took
the majority of the members of the TO-
bacco trade to Hartford and the holi-
day intervening, the business of the
leaf market was naturally of a re-
stricted kind. Anyhow, the uncertain
ty of the war tobacco tax solution
keeps things unsettled inasmuch as the
solution of the war tax will have a de-
cided effect on the value of the leaf
stock on hand as we'll as on the coming
crops. In the meantime, the attention
of the entire leaf market is absorbed
in the novel event of the coming Suma-
ira inscription. The managers of the
inscription are busy preparing it for a
successful outcome Journal

Pennsylvania.
LANCASTER, Pa, May 27,

Late as this season will be, the to-
bacco growers of Lancaster county are
not worrying. What they will do if
the unfavorable weather continues is
another thing. Nobody can discount
the quality of last years crop, and yet
it was planted after the middle of June.
Indeed, the first of July passed without
some of the growers having set out
their plants, but they got them out
finally and got an all right crop, too.
Under favorable conditions the first of
July would do we'll enough for planting.
It seems to be pretty well settled by
this time that Lancaster county will
have the normal acreage this year;
that is, about $4,000 acres. There is
no doubt that if labor were more plen-
tiful, or rather, if it were not SO very
scarce, the acreage this season would
have been the greatest in the history
of Lancaster county. But good farm
hands are now asking and receiving,
too, $50 month and board and lodg-
ing. Less than five years ago the price
was under $50 month. Even boys
can now command SIS week and board.
It is predicted that this year everybody
on the farm will go to the field just as
the women are doing in England. The
high prices received for the 1916 crop
and the certainty that at least as good
prices will be paid for the 1917 crop,
would cause marked increase in acre
age if it were not for the labor ques-
tiOn.
Our packers certainly deserve the
sympathy of the trade, for they have
very little with which to do business.
Indeed, many of them are not doing
any trading at all. The people who
have goods would have no trouble in
closing out their stock, but they prefer
to do a jobbing business with old GUS
toners who find it hard enough to get
goods sufficient to keep their factories
going. 1t is probable that it would be
more profitable for the dealer to sell
out at the figure he would get and thus
avoid expenses he cannot get away
from, but he hates the idea of getting
out of business. So he sticks to his Of
flee, even while wondering what under
the sun the future has in store for him.

THE Deutchland, which gained so
much notoriety, is now lying in an
English harbor and has been turned
over to the Red Cross organization,
which charges ten cents to go on board.
The proceeds are used for the work of
the organization. The Bremen also
has been captured. Both crews are in
termed in English prisons. They were
given chance for their lives, some
thing that cannot be said of Germany's
sea warfare.
