Trees and Fires.

1t is doubtful whether any single
agency has caused more fires than
Christmas trees. These are covered
with infiammable ornaments and kept
until the branches are A. dry as tim
der. The practice of decorating with
candles and lighting these in order to
beautify the tree is the main source
of danger. There is something so
pleasing and satisfactory about Christ
mas trees that no one feels like CIV
Ing them up. or opposing their use,
hut they are a source of loss and dam

eliminate the danger. even though it
should reduce the number of trees.
Until regulations from the outside in

reputation Of the j. /. Case Threshing

production of the Case six are twenty
four we'll known names in the automo-
bile industry
Leading the Case line are the coupe
and the sedan. The coupe accommodates
four passengers. There are two indi-
vidual seats in addition to the full
width rear seats. Cushions upholstered
over China cotton on duplex springs
are covered with mohair velour of a
subdued stripe pattern in a rich gray
The ceiling, with it's dome light, is An

applied to the header prevents rattles
and makes it waterproof. A locking de-
vice provides for locking one door from
the inside. The other locks on the
outside.

which disappear into the back of the
front seat, this all-season car seats

improvements over previous models
characterize the 1890 Case line. The
wheel base has been heightened to l26
inches. The Deico ignition system has
been installed, with the Westinghouse
starter and generator. The divided
front seats are displaced by a solid
front seat, which joins the body sides
firmly.
An Improvement Of the lubr;catinr
system has been effected by substitute
ing the Alemite system for the old
fashioned grease cups. Forcing lubri-
cant into the bearing surfaces with q

"This being the case, certain large
cars which, IN poundage, weigh far

And these larger cars will afford the

"Car buyers should be careful that

that road stability is not dependent
upon weight, that durability is more

than through heavy weight, if all other

struction that cannot be obtained with
heavy weight and it's attendant

''The use Of full elliptic springs is
one method of reducing unsprune

owners. The production in 1917 and
1918 was largely absorbed by the gov
ernment. The few cars left had to
spread very thinly over a demand that
exceeded the supply at least eight to
one in 1917 and twelve to one in 1918.
Each year a certain number of used
and rebuilt cars result from one of
two causes. Either the owner buys
into another class or feels his old car
has outliyed its usefulness so far as
he is concerned. In normal years
these cars have a fixed resale value,
there being a schedule on which the
average dealer will market this used
product. However, in 1917 and 1918
cars that had seen two, three and even
FIVE years. service sold at prices better
than obtained for them when new.
These cars, together with the cumula-
tive wear on all models prior to 1917,
that naturally would have been
serapped had there been a normal out
PIT, continued in use.
This very wear, based on 100000
cars now in use, means that not less
than IL per cent, or 100000, must be
purchased each year to replace those
used to the point of destruction. For
New-York tribune., 1920-01-04

the two years of lean production we
have replacement necessity of l.
10000 cars worn out, and another
100000 worn out in 1915 and not re-
placed, or total of 100000 cars of
which less than 80 per cent were pur-
chased in 1919.
I'VE have in America about 15,OO0,-
600 prospective automobile buyers.
With only one-third Of the number
sold, this leaves 100000 potential
owners. Assuming that 10 per cent
will buy each year, then the 1920 de-
mand, in connection with the renewal
market, will be 2,54o,Oo0 cars. This
does not contemplate the new buyers
created each year from the growing
population OR those who purchase
more than one car.
"Considered from the angle of posi-
tive demand the stability of our ma
tional wealth, the earning power of
our people, | cannot see, despite the
largely increased production predicted
for 1920. any possibility for saturation
either in that year or for Ten years
to come"

Harry S. Houpt. "Six months after

"In those days it was a common

This era Of periodic and radical

gineers when they decided that such

that it was unfair to the motoring
