HUDSON:SUPER-SIX i.
WINS BIG STOCK EVENTS

Since its Introduction last year the
Hudson super six has won praetic-
ally every stock ear record in the
country. Perhaps the greatest Of these
is It's rOunde trip across the continent,
made in ~ days and p hours. A seven
passenger touring ear which, with bag
gage and passengers weighed 5000
pounds, was driven fram San Francisco
10 New York city ines days. 3 hours, 81
minutes. II beat the best previous Fee
ord by ~ hours. 50 minutes II beat
the best time held 10 within a month
OF the time the Hudson made its run
by ls days. At the end Of the trip
the Hudson was going so well that 1T
was decided to turn her about and try
for record going back. IT was.thc first
attempt ever made by a ear to do a
round trip across the continent. The
return trip was made in ) days, 2l
hours, or total for the entire round
trip OF 10 days. 81 hours Heavy rains
were encountered in the Sierra Nevada
mountains on the way back. which de-
layed the time i.teen hours.
Perhaps the most coveted record in
the world is that for the p hours run.
For years the time made by S. +. Edge
on the rooklands track, England, had
stood. Ralph Mulford, driving a Hud-
son stock super-six chassis, covered
l,Sl9 miles in q hours in the Sleeps

is that up Pike s Peak. A "supersix

MONEY IN POTATOES

George H. Brown, of New Era, and
his son, Z. f. Brown, have made a
profit approximating $4,000 by plant
ing about so eeres of land to potatoes.
With this showing they have easily
demonstrated that they can be designat-
ed as the "Sppd Kings" of Claekamas
county.
Their s0-aerc tract near New Era pro-
duced this season 10000 bushels. and in
addition to this Mr. Brown purchased
several thousand bushels on the outside
which he disposed Of at good profit.
Mr. Brown has about 500 sacks left.
averaging about ll5 pounds to the sack.
He has been offered as high as $375 a
hundred for this supply. The potatoes
he sold at the early market brought
sl.25 a hundred. The biggest part of
his crop sold at an average Of 1925 4
hundred.
Mr. Brown las had considerable expe-
rienec at potato raisng having made
them his principal crop for number Of
years. He specializes in the Early Rose
and American Wonder varieties.-Can-

Studebaker Six Rated As
One Of Best Cars Made

The Studebaker Six is one of the
best automobiles ever made, and it.
should be, for it is the masterpiece
of one of the world S largest makers
and no company in the world in
manufacturing OF engineering expert
ence, resources or organization, ex
cells Studebaker; and the Studebaker
Six is the best work of Studebaker.
1t is ear of masterful power, no
ear in the world Sunder $4,000 exceeds
it in this respeet-and, in ratio to
weight no ear in the world at any
price exceeds Studebaker Six in
power. Yet it is remarkably economic
al in gasoline, fires, upkeep and
maintenance expense, because of its un-
excelled design. 1t as easy riding and
as easy driving as cars of much greater
weight and longer wheelbase, and this
because of its extra long springs, scien-
tfieally designed seats and cushions,
and perfect lines Like the highest
priced makers, Studebaker has not
Iadopted temporary fads and fancies in
body design as an advertising OF sell
ing stimulus. 1t changes body designs
only by the refinement of distinctive
lines, which are permanently beautiful
and stylish.
1t would be equally foreign to Stude-
baker policy to make radical changes
in its motor design either Four or Six
merely for the sake of advertising and
sales value The present motor has met
ieverv emergency of average service and
at average driving speeds it is better
than any other design yet developed.

A RARE OLD GAME

ssNo one has to be prophet or the
son of seer to be perfectly safe IN
predicting that the attendance and the
sales at this season S automobile shows
are going to put all past performances
along these lines in the discard, rum
mates the Commentator, in the Febru-
arv issue Of American Motorist. The
people have the money and they have
the motor ear habit, The combination
of the two can result in but one thing,
and that particular thing i going %
mean a very comfortable feeling in the
bank balance of those who live from
ana hr automobiles, while those who
nay for il all-those who ride--are go
ing to set more for their money than
ever before. Really, il is enc Of those
delightful and extremely rare games
wherein there are no losers, but all who
play win.

1t Is on the long pourneys that the
motor car scores. II scores over the

Again, economy can be effected by
an amendment Of driving methods.
Tire economy is secured by moderate

at the street crossings are abusing their
tires.

The "supersix'' showed such speed
that it attracted the attention of rae

MARKET UNSTEADY
OVER PEACE TALK
Alternate Declines and Recov-
cries Indicates Uncertainty

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-Trading in

the latest peace proposals. Dealings
denoted greater conservatism by op-
orators for both accounts, the alter
nate declines and recoveries furnish
ing an indication of uncertainty In
speculative quarters.
There was diminution of activity
in stocks which derive their support
from professional interests. General
Motors made an extreme decline OF

shares, Marine preferred gaining Is

lantic, Gulf e. West Indies lost all its
i y point advance. Coppers sugars.
Mexican Petroleum, distillers and the
fertilizers embraced the other strong
stocks.
United States Steel was sluggish
most of the time, but came forward
later. Bethlehem Steel also rebound
ed at gains of 2 points. Rails were
barely steady on infrequent offerings.
Total sales amounted to 515 5000
