Early birds Regret Being Early.

MANUFACTURERS OF womens outer gar
ments who had their fall lines ready in
May and sent statesmen on the road In
June. and who did good early business
are wondering now II they would have
been better OF had they waited until
July. And their wonder is due to the
fact that business done last month has
established in a good many instances a
new low record.
Another year there is likely to be
more thought taken in regard to early
openings II would mean a great deal
to the womens garment industry. ac-
cording to many manufacturers. IL buy
ers knew that all lines would be ready
for their inspection at one definite and
fixed time.

Favor During the Past Week.
Handled by Owens.

A sensation in the truck market is
the big fine appearing Collier that
made its first bow in Richmond Tor
busin ess favor during the past week.
This light duty truck Is declared by
truck enthusiasts to be one OF the
handsomest eve seen in the city, n
the manufacturers, the Collier Motor
Truck company, of Bellevue, Ohio, say
the truck will back up in performance
all the claims made for It. While it is
DESIGNATED as a three-quarter-ton
truck, it is guaranteed to carry SO per
cent overload under the most trying
conditions.
The Collier Is modern in every par
ticular, being equipped with electric
lights. including DINNERS, electric
starter, double brakes, pneumatic tires
and the body finish is as handsome
and complete as h a of a touring car.
The Collier has attracted a great
deal of attention and the showrooms
of the owens Motor company, dis
tributors of quality trucks, have bean
filled with visitors ever since the
trucks were received. Several car
loads of trucks are expected the first
part of the week, and Mr.. Owens
promises early delivery on all orders.
The trucks complete have standard
express bodies, open express bodies
and full panel bodies. These are fin
ished up in elegant style, giving the
Collier a decidedly distinguished ap-
pearance which IL in keeping with its

FARM TRACTORS GAIN
FAVOR IN CORN BELT
Ninety Per Cent of More Than 900
Users Regard Them Profitable.
Ability 10 Do Heavy Work.

Evidence of the growing popular
ity OF tractors on corn-belt farms is
shown by reports made by more than
500 tractor owners, nine out OF every
ten reporting that their investment in
a tractor had proved profitable. These
a were obtained in the summer
and fall of 1917 and in the spring of
1918 on representative Illinois farms
by specialists of the United States de-
partment of agriculture in order to
determine just what conditions justi-
fled the purchase of a tractor in that
section. Experience tractor owners
who made reports stated that tractors
will prove profitable on most corn
belt farms of $50 acres or more. while
in their opinion they should not be
expected to do so on farms of much
less than 1870 acres. The report of
the investigators, publishtd as Farm
ers' Bulletin 963. states that while the
figures were obtained in only m
state, they are applicable throughout
the corn belt and that the prospective
tractor purchaser may reasonably
count upon equaling the average per-
formances reported in the study.
The Tractors Principal Advantages.
Nearly three-fourrhs (71 per cent?
of those who reported owned tractors
capable of pulling three plows. Eleven
per cent recommended t~wo-plow ma
chinces, while 10 per cent advocated
the use of four plows. In nswer to
the question, What do you find to
be the principal advantages of a
tractor for farm work ?" the
indicated that it's ability TO do heavy
work and do 1t quickly, thus cover
ing the desired acreage within the
proper season. was considered the
principal advantage. The saving of
man power and the doing away with
hired help, enabling a man to farm
a larger acreage and thus increase the
p~ortance. The ability to pillow to a
good depth, especially in hot weather,
was also emphasized.
Under disadvantages tne difficulty
Of efficient operation wac the princi-
pal point. and this fact should be kept
in mind by everyone who considers
the purchase of a tractor. says the
bulletin. In this connection II sug-
Gests hat tractor owners take a
course OF training under competent in
structors in this line, as the results
OF such a course usually am ply justify
the time and expense involved. Pack
ing Of the ground when damp was
mentioned by several owners as a dis
advantage, but not as frequently as
a disadvantage. but not as frequently
as was the case when more of the
older and heavier machines were in
use The expense, delays, and in
ability TO use the tractor for many
kinds OF work for which horses could
be used were disadvantages mentioned
by several owners.

President OF Franklin Automobile
Company Says 1t Is In Class

H. n. Franklin, president Of the
Franklin Automobile company, says:
The passenger or ~so-called pleas
ure' automobile Is not entirely a Ii X
ury nor Is II entirely a utility. In gen.
eral IL can be classed with the street
car and the railroad passenger car.
In proportion to the number OF
people carried and miles Travelled, 1t
is very probable that the passenger
automobile is no more a pleasure
vehicle than the railroad passenger
car or street car. The people carried
by these various types of cars are. on
the average, ben upon the same err
rands."
