SETBACK GIVEN TO

setback was given to wheat prices to-
day by news of the closing Of the port
Of New York to all outgoing vessels
Bearish crop estimates tended also
TO handicap holders. At first the mar
ket had displayed firmness owing to
strength Of coarse grains. Opening
prices. which varied from unchanged
figures to ! cent higher. were fol-
lowed by a break to well below yes
terday's finish all around. and sub
sequent rally failed to hold
Continued wet weather lifted the
corn market. Growth conditions were
said to call instead for warmth and
sunshine. After opening 4 to TX
higher. prices scored decided further
gains. but lost much OF the advance
when wheat turned down grade.
Oats followed wheat rather than
corn. Scantiness Of offerings though
prevented any radical down turn.
Weakness Of lard acted as a weight
on provisions. Nevertheless shorts il
ribs showed disposition to cover ow-
ing to higher quotations on hogs.

Facts Are Becoming
Known to Public
1t Can Be Proven to the
DOubters.

Nothing in the world succeeds like
success. This is more true of the
Saxon automobile than any car manu-
featured today. The Saxon Motor Car
Corporation organized three year ago
Is now the third largest producers of
automobiles in the world. The history
OF the Saxon reads like fiction-no car
on the market has grown as fast in
popularity. To see the Saxon and ride
In 1t Is proof of this. Its performance
and the pride of its owners is what is
selling the Saxon. Men who know
and understand the construction of an
automobile are selecting the Saxon In
preference to other makes
The features on the Saxon such as
the Continental Motor, Timkin bear
ings and axles, Stromberg carbruetor,
full cantilever springs, Wagner start
ing and lighting system, Remy ignit-
ion. its luxurious upholstering. its
many fine exclusive features 80 differ
ent from cars at the price the Saxon
sells for it what is making the car
popular with the buying public.
Sit in the back seat and stretch
your legs to their fullest extent.
Note the comfortable riding qualities
given by the full cantilever springs
rs they cradle you over the toughest
OF roads. Saxon rear seat is big and
roomy and comfortable for three peo-
pie. Then take the wheel and put
the car through its stunts" Throttle
the motor down to two or three miles
an hour on high and note the even,
smooth power-f1ow. Then jump the
accelerator to its extreme upper pitch
and feel the clean pickup to 40 miles
an hour in a minute and a half.
The beauty of the Saxon "Six"
motor should be just beginning to
make its impression.
No bucking, no jerking-just the
even, quiet power-flow of tremendous
reserve strength. And to know just
how much reserve strength, send
Saxon six" against the most stub
born hill in your community, the
"stumper." You will marvel at the
manner in which this is overcome.
And above all, you will remark on
the splendid riding comfort of the
front seat. We will venture to say
there is not front seat on any car
made that rides any easier than that
Of Saxon "Six"
We do believe that the features
alone should sell Saxon six" These
are the factors which determine your
possession as an object Of pride and
satisfaction These are the factors
which will give the day in and day
out serviceability, which any owner
has right to expect, and which we
demand our cars give.
But the right component parts
properly assembled. also give the sat
isfactcry demonstration. Hence, we
are only too glad to submit Saxon
six" to any reasonable test. and
leave this particular bit of perform
ance with the security of thought
that this can be attained, not only
today or tomorrow. but each day and
every day, because Saxon cars are
built right of the right material.
There are three models of the Sax
On six" The chummy 4-passenger is
a beauty and is creating much COM
ment
The 5-passenger touring car is a
roomy, comfortable car. Herewith is
seen a cut of same.
