CHICAGO, Aug. 24.-Just how thor oughly. not to say excessively traders had discounted crop damages was made fully apparent today. With the damage fully understood liquidation continued and the market closed with october options showing a net loss of cents. Increasing receipts were also a factor, altohugh they came as no surprise. October closed at $1.61h.
 The oats market opening firm, was unable to resist the influence of the corn weakness and declined 6s6%c with the tone easy at the close, despite hying by cash houses.

PASSENGER JAR
 NOW USED FUR
 TRANSP0RTAT' N

Today, the passenger automobile, used stricty as a means of transporta- tion, occupies a commanding position in our life" says Bert o. Brown, local dealer in Chevrolet automobiles. The importance of that use redused to dol lars and cents can hardly be figured. If all automobiles were to be with drawn from service at once, the loss would be overwhelming.
 Take Chevrolet Model Four Ninety as an example: This model finds it's greatest use as a utility car. Here is a model which is a favorite, both in busy centers and in the country
 Tn thousands of cases this type is used solely as means of transporta- tion. Its economy in operation and the latitude of it's usefulness make it al- most indispensable.
 The man with many duties finds the Chevrolet Four Ninety a valuable as- sistant. It helps him to make more calls than he otherwise could. It is ideal to handle in traffic. The short turning radius allows the driver to get in and out anywhere.
 "The Chevrolet Four-Ninety Is equally valuable on the farm. It goes 10 town and back in a jiffy. The farmer does not have to hitch up" his car. He does not have to feed and groom it constantly. It is never sick and out of service because of over- work the day before. The automobile is ready to do his bidding. Ready for any errand. any time, anywhere.
 ''1t would be as imossible to do with out the automobile as to do without any convenience we have today. This fact is being realized more each day"

TRUCKS ARE USED
 EXTENSIVELY NOW

Because of congested freight condi- tions in the cattle country, farmers and stock raisers, are turning to the motor truck for hauling their produce and cattle to market says Joseph Nc Aller of the Kissel Auto company.
 That this method of transporting livestock is practical and foregone success is evidenced by the first train, which recently passed through Dallas from Farmersville, containing five trucks loaded with sheep and hogs for delivery at the Fort Worth stockyards The entire distance of 51 miles was made in hours at less cost than if shipped via freight cars.'

CLUTCH GRABBING

This trouble is the opposite of slip ping. The clutch takes hold too sud denly, so that the car is 5erked in starting and needless strain is involved for the entire power transmitting mechanism. Grabbing is caused by toe heavy spring pressure, by facings that have become rough and dry, by end play in the crankshaft, by misalign- ment of the clutch shaft, by too tight an adjustment. The driver who jams in his clutch is quite likely to produce a grabbing action.

A car of Stockton, Diamond Ps pota- toes came in on the local markets yes- terday and another is expected in on Monday. The Stockton Diamond Ps potatoes are the last word in Irish po- tatoes, the present shipment proving to be of extra fine quality.

AUTOMOBILE HELPS
 BUSINESS ACTIVITY

"l It is through the adaptability of the automobile that I have been able to increase my business activities" writes an owner to Jos. McAleer of the KisseI Auto company.
 I am the proprietor of a farm president of a national bank and owner of a cattle and sheep ranch. and it would be impossible for me to handle all of my business without an auto mobile. If I did not own the car, it would require at least one extra fore man, besides not personally knowing at all times just what the business at each place was doing."

Fake Stock Advertising

A determined effort is on foot to save the
small investor Of Indiana from the promoter of
fraudulent companies. The enactment of a blue
sky law will be sought at the next session of the
legislature. Under its provisions it will be nee
essary for those who offer stocks and bonds in
new enterprises to submit the proposition to
state officials.
Indiana is a rich field for promoters now.
They come into the state with glowing descrip-
lions of fortunes that are to be made in OIL min
ing and other speculations. Investors with more
money than knowledge Of the science of invest
ment are blinded by the glitter of the promise and
readily buy thousands of dollars worth of securi-
ties that are worth less than the paper on which
they are printed.
Wayne county is no exception to the rule.
Promoters take hundreds of dollars out of this
community every month"; and the only surpris-
ing thing about the transactions is the ease with
which the people hand out their money to the
strangers with the glib tongue.
A blue sky law is the only thing that will keep
this money at home and where it belongs. The
average man is deceived by the promise of a pro-
nloter that speculative stock will net him one
per cent month He fails to see that there can
