WHITE HOUSE LAWNMOWERS.


There are twelve animated lawn
mowers keeping down the grass on
the White House lawn To be eX-
plicit. there are twelve Shropshire

bought them and turned them loose.
Those sheep will keep that lawn

men with hand-mowers. or one man
with a power-mower that uses up
gasoline They will probably do it
better Anyone who has ever seen a
stretch of zine old turf kept i'm con-
duion by grazing sheep will realize
their positive value for this purpose.
quite aside from the saving in human
labor and material They may re-
uuiro a bit of herding now and then.
and little extra fencing. but those
details are easily adjusted.
While these ovine mowers are
keeping down the grass. they're pro-
duc.ng wool Twelve sheep ought to
be enough to Clothe the Presidents
family. And any time Mr.. Wilson gets
tired of seeing them around, he can
have fresh mutton. If he keeps them
Ions enough he'll have a private sup
ply of spring lamb.
The example was set early in the
war 10y the English. It's worth fol-
lowing I'm this country on a big scale.

PERFECTED DYES.

There is stiil an impression I'm this
country that ia spite of the progress
made in the anilinc dye industry since
the war began. American dyes are still
inferior 10 German dyes There is no
lodging the fact that some OF the
early efforts OF our manufacturers
were rather crude. Certain colors
would run. The defects were frank
~ admitted little too frankly per-
haps. Dealers got into the habit Of
telling customers that they could
not guarantee domestic colors as
fast" Thus the public came 20 eX-
pect inferiority i'm the native product
And pro Germans naturally took
pleasure i'm strengthening the impress
sion
There is no longer any ground for
it. American dyes today are the
equals of German dyes The fact has
been clearly demonstrated at the big
exhibition of the American textile in
dustry at the Grand Central Palace
in New York City. There is a row of
stands on which are hung SIDE ny slde
large number of American-dyed and
German-dyed textiles all of which
have been equally exposed outdoors
for three weeks. day and night and
have had the same soapy washing.
Both sets look exactly alike. All the
coIors are fast" There is no choice
between them. experts say
The public should clearly under
stand this. There may still be an oc-
Casioual color. i'm its pioneer stage,
that has not been developed 10 the
desired perfection. But the common.
standard colors made in America may
now be accepted as every bit as good
as those made in Germany. And we
shall never again have any use for the

the automobile industry during the
last two decades.
THE Oldsmobile has the distinc-
tion of being the first automobile
made and introduced to the Amer
ican public on practical com cler-
cial basis. In the years of expert
ment and development that follow
ed, it was always among the lead-
ers. A great many of the radical
changes that have assisted to COM
pletely revolutionize the industry,
were originated in our engineering
department and put into practice on
early model Oldsmobiles.

break of war;" continued Mr.. Yer
Linden, this year would have mark
ed the greatest single increase of
output in the history of the COM
pany. With the introduction of the
perfected S-cylinder models so over
whelming a demand was created that
immediate building extensions were
made necessary. Accordingly two
enormous modern concrete buildings
were begun and have since been
completed Under present condi-

OF course, have first consideration,

ed facilities will be diverted to pur-

Statesmen USE
AUTO TO TRAVEL
Automobile Proving Itself
One of Their Best
Assets

The salesman is finding the auto
mobile one of his greatest assets in
covering more ground in less time.
In this connection John n. willys,
president of WHY'S Overland Inc,
tells of some of the valuable uses to
which statesmen are putting this
modern transportation means.
Look at the cars used by trav-
cling salesmen," he says. "I asked
one of the greatest and most i'm
portant food concerns in America to
tell me what the passenger car
means to them in the efficiency of
their business. Their answer is i'm
portant because it is typical of the
saving in time, railroad facilities,
and manpower that the automobile
is the equivalent of ten to twenty
per cent. in extra manpower.
Another group of men in town
use automobiles. They are mer-
chants, clerks. and men who work
in factories and shops. Watch the
man you know in these groups.
You'll find the merchant using his
car for a dozen business errands a
day. He is doubling up most likely,
and getting along with one less clerk
as part of his bit The clerk or
factory man is hurrying home to his
war garden. or he belongs to a COM
mittee for raising funds for one of
the countless patriotic requirements
of the day. Or maybe he is one of
those few who simply use a car to
carry him to a less expensive home
with big saving in time and energy.
Wherever he is, you will arrive at
the astonishing fact that the myriad
of automobiles which are upon our
streets devote between eighty and
ninety per cent. of their mileage to
the strict business of saving time.
And yet this great timesaver. the
passenger automobile, is considered
by some folks as a luxury and a
nonessential. 1 wonder what their
idea of public utility really is.
