FARMERS BUY HALF
OF AUTOS PRODUCED.
Rural Folks Spending Millions
Of Dollars For Motorcars.
Efficiency Increased.

That Annapolis is not the only town
in the country to which there CON
stantly comes a steadily increasing
number of Iural-owned automobiles,
is indicated from reports gathered
throughout the county
Farmers are buying half of the auto
mobiles produced this year This is
rather a startling statement, but it's
truth is vouched for by automobile ex-
perts and government reports from
all parts of the country.
Millions of dollars are being spent
by farmers for motorcars, and they are
using them every day in the year for
long trips from their farms to town
and back again, carrying all sorts of
tools and produce and increasing their
efficiency many times
Time saved in travel back and forth
is one of the greatest of the many ad-
vantages of the farmers car.

MAN BELIEVED TO
HAVE KILLED SELF

Relief that there has occurred
another suicide in, the upper section
of the county, is the theory on which
the police are working following the
finding yesterday of a mans hat and
coat on the Hanover street bridge,
connecting Anne Arundel County
with Baltimore City. Papers found
in the pockets indicated that it belong
ed to Walter G. Steininger, notary
public of Reading, Pa. The coat is of
blue material and bears the name of
tailoring firm in Reading. 1t was
folded neatly and the hat was lying
beside it.
Assuming that the owner of the ar
ticles had committed suicide, resi-
dents in the locality searched the
water, but up to a late hour had dis
covered nothing to support that
theory
