FARMERS BUYING
BIGPERCENTAGE
OF AUTOMOBILES

BOrty-Ons per cent Of all automo-
biles registered in Minnesota are
owned In communities having a pop
ulation Of less than 1000, and less
than 50 per cent In cities Of 10000
or more population. More than half
Of the cars In the State are owned in
villages or communities having 1000
or fewer reHidentA-
OF the 50, e,0s6 cars sold in the State
during 1917, farmers and residents Of
villages having no more than 1000
population bought 1e,30i, or very
nearly onS-hRlf, while 1890 were
purchased in communities OF fewer
than 1000 persons.
An investigation OF this subject
made BY the Standard Farm Paper
Association shows that In eleven
towns In good farming and dairying
territory, ranging from 5000 TO 80 900
and having 4 combined popT' 1 Of
e6,SS6. the number Of cars
owned on November ! last vas TO-
81, or one for every nine persons,
while in eight towns OF similar size
located In mining and numbering
areas, with q combined population OF
eS.2o0. only 4.036 ears were owned, or
one for more than sixteen persons.
lhls - concrete evidence tnat the
farmer hGs q high appreciation OF the
utility OF the motor car in his busi-
nsaa. This is easily understood when
It is remembered that the farmer is
dependent entirely upon his own
means OF transportation, has long
distances to 90 to market and his
time is needed on the farm rather
than on the road.

tire musical comedy "Oh Lady. Lady"
which appeared there on Wednesday
and is to appear at The Playhouse five

That is the best musical coined, I've

Guy Bolton and p G. Wodehouse kept
the audience laughing at the book and
lyrics and jerome Kern had those

WASHINGTON, March 21.-Lines
were drawn today for what promised
to be the bitterest fight of the pres
ent session Of congress as result
of the senate judiciary committees
action yesterday i'm voting TO report
the Overman reorganization bill
favorably.
Up to the present time the presi-
dent has declined TO take congress
into his confidence as to what re-
organization he has i'm mind He
has refused also TO accept the
slightest restriction on the powers
he demands in the reorganization.
Passage OF the bill i'm its present
form is a matter Of much uncer-
tainty. Senators who voted in the
committee 10 make a favorabl re-
port on the measure openly avowed
their intention of supporting amend
ments which will be offered on the
floor to specifically restrict the broad
powers contained in the bill.
Indications were that a substantial
number Of senators who would vote
for the Overman bill i'm the final
show down" would also support the
Hoke Smith amendment confning
the reorga nization to the war and
navy departments. the shipping
board. the emergency fleet corpora
tion and the bureau Of mines
The fight Will be further compli-
Gated by "a movement on The part
Of the Chamberlain faction to tack
on the war cabinet bill as an amend
ment This is expected TO bring up
the whole question OF the war as
brought out in the congressional in
vestigations
