No One Quality Predominates
i'm the New Hudson Super-Six
It's Four Years Development Results in a
Rounded Perfection That $4,000
Owners of Earlier Models Had Predicted

The names of certain automobiles call
to mind definite characteristics of those
cars.
Four years ago, when the Super-SiX
was introduced, Hudson meant q motor
with II per cent greater power without
added size or weight.
In another year its emblem, the
White Triangle, marked the winning
cars in most of the speedway, road rae
ing and mountain climbing contests.
Then the pame Hudson became a
synonym for endurance. 1t meant
longer and harder automobile service.
The growing number of Hudsons
later gave it another distinction. The
beauty of its various types was recog-
nized everywhere. 1t became famil-
lar object on every highway.
Then Still Another Distinction
In each of these distinctions for
which the name Hudson became SYM
bolic, no forfeiture was made of earlier
advantages. Each advantage became
an additional merit
The new Hudson Super-SiX encom-
passes all the wanted qualities. 1t is
a powerful car, but every item of it's
construction measures up to the stand
ard of its motor
1t is fast car, but it's endurance is
equal to any task imposed. 1t is
beautiful car, and every detail in finish
and convenience matches its outward

the editor answers: Biologists dis
agree as to the origin OF the 'so-called

majority Of those who have written
on the subject appear to believe
that the oil is of animal and veset-
able origin. 1t is conjectured to be
mainly the fat OF fishes. reptiles ard
animals that lived and died ages ago.
Oil-bearing plants or seeds may have
contributed to the total supply. The

Potato Wart May Come.

During the past few years a Euro
pean disease of Irish potatoes known
As the potato wart has been intro
duced into Pennsylvania and possi-
bly, into other states. This is one
Of the most serious of potato diseases
and if it should become introduced
into our potato districts tremendous
loss would result, according to G. w.
Edgerton, plant pa'hologist, Louis
lana State University. The disease
attacks the eyes of the potatoes and
covers them with repulsive, warty
growths, making them absolutely
worthless.
On account of the seriousness Of
the disease. the United States De-
partment of Agriculture is making a
survey of the whole country in order
to find out just where the disease is
at present. Er. Il. v. Hollis Of the
Department has been detailed to
Louisiana and will spend about SIX
weeks in the various parts Of the
state, visiting the potato districts
and also the backyard gardens in the
cities and towns. As it will be i'm
possible for Mr.. Ellis to visit the
whole state in the time allotted him,
1t is requested that all potato trou-
bles be brought to the attention OF
.he farm demonstration agent or that
specimens be sent to the Department:
