MAXWELL TRACTOR
 IS ANNOUNCED

Ranchers all over the country are impatiently awaiting the arrival of the latest Maxwell creation, the Maxwell baby tractor, which will go into pro duction a few weeks hence under their progressive system o4 assembly, says Manager Brewer of the Mohave Ga rage.
 ''The Maxwell tractor is the visuali- zation of the one big win-the-war idea so far advanced by the American au- tomobile manufacturing plant. It is designed with the principal object in view of eliminating the horse and mule from the drudgery of the farm. It will save for the United States the product of five acres of land required every year for the sustenance of every horse and mule and release this land for useful cultivation of food for the people"
 The quota of Maxwell passenger cars allowed for the Pacific coast ter ritory, which includes the states of Montana, Idaho, Utah, Oregon, Wash ington, California, Nevada and Arizo- na, is 11,OOO.
 The demand for this sturdy little car is increasing daily.

Hark! I hear the tramp of thousands And of armed men the hum; Lo, a Nations hosts have gathered Round the quick alarming drum, Saying, Come, Freemen, come! Ere your heritage be wasted"

COTTON GINNING COMBINE

The Star is informed that combi-
nation has been formed among the
leading cotton ginners of the state to
put off ginning until Oct. 1, the idea
being that there is lot of old cotton
yet on hand and the new cotton would
depress the market.
This all may be. but there are a
large number of farmers who have no
place to store their cotton, and stand
to lose a large proportion of it if it is
not ginned. Is also likely to break
down the proprietors of small gins.
This is another instance of the
shortsightedness of our people in not
putting up the big cotton warehouse
that Mr.. Simmons has been trying to
induce them to build. 1t. would be
worth many thousands of dollars to
the people of the county.
