The commercial car. the truck and
the farm tractor will be as big a fac

pleasure vehicle has been. Within
the past year over 100. 600 farm trsc-
tors have been sold and over half a
million trucks for farm and town use.
Practically three million light pleasure
cars have been manufactured and sold.
These figures give some idea Of the

the gasoline motor that pr0pels the
automobile sends the aerOplane

NEELEY BOY ENJOYS
LIFE AT FORT DOUGLAS
Army Training Something Everyone
Needs, Writes Marvin L. Morgan.

William Morgan of Neeley is in re-
ceipt of a Letter from his son, Marvin
L. Morgan. who is a member of the
42nd infantry at Fort Douglas, Utah.
The Letter indicates that army life is
not distasteful to young Morgan, as
in the letter he states that the physical
exercises, which include wrestling,
boxing, running and jumping is certain
ly fine training for anyone. The young
man was laid up at the time of writ
ing, having strained his hip while
wrestling, and for the time being ex-
cused from all duty.
Charlie Jones, another Neeley boy,
who recently enlisted. is also station
ed at Fort Douglas. Although not in
the same company as Morgan their
hunks are only few feet apart.
There is plenty Of opportunity to
rise in the service, young Morgan
writes. and expresses a determination
to win promotion before the war is
over. He is expecting to be sent tC
another place in the near future, prob
ably to some southern station. to com
plete his training.

LEADING FARMER SAYS
SEED BAART WHEAT
It's General Seeding VIII Be Worth
100000 a Year TO Farmers, Says
7. X. Meadows.

f. r. Meadows is in line with the
suggestion of l.. G. Aichre, superin-
tendent of the Aberdeen experiment
station, to seed Early Baart wheat TO
the exclusion of all other spring var
ieties. Mr.. Meadows will seed every
acre of this variety he can, and even
tually work into it entirely. He is Oh
the opinion that if farmers Of the
county will generally adopt Early
Baart it will be worth 100000 year
to them.
H. r. orders, who has a farm on the
Little Creek divide, seeded small
field to Early Baart this spring. 1t was
the latest field seeded of which Mr..
Meadows has any knowledge, yet 1t
is ready to harvest, and will return
fair yield. Bluestem seeded a little
earlier than the Baart is still as green
as can be, is in danger Of frost, and II
it escapes frost will not yield any
where near as much as the Early
Baart. This is object lesson enough
for Mr.. Meadows who has made sue
cess of wheat growing by profiting
by the experiences Of others as We'll
as his own.
Early Baart, according to Superin-
tendent A1chre OF tne ADeIueSh Ca
pertinent station, has these advantages
over other spring varieties grown
here. It natures three weeks or more
ahead of other varieties, thus escap-
ing much of the danger from hail and
frost.
It is a heavier yielder than other
spring varieties, and harder.
1t is a better milling variety thah
other spring wheats.
These advantages have been the
ones which decided Mr.. Meadows to
adopt it. He has been studying the
Early Baart for some time. After the
message to wheat growers from Mr..
Aichre reached the public through the
Press last week, there was consider
able discussion of the new variety and
a number of farmers decided to adopt
Early Baart if seed can be obtained
