FARMERS ARE RIDING
Country Shows up More Than Two
Million Automobiles.

l. Million AUTOMOBILES.
Farmers Of New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania and the New England
states, according to a Detroit, Mich,
letter, have become so thoroughly
sold" on the automobile that today
there is "a greater percentage of motor
cars owned by this class than there
ever were horses, recent survey Of
the United States by the automobile
manufacturers shows.
In the United States there are said
to be G,44S,343 farms and Of this num-
Der 1,979,5G4 answered a QUESTIONABLE
sent out and reporting total Of O.
1892 cars. In New York state, it
is said. there are 193,195 farms and Of
this number 35 per cent. reported
owning $4,000 automobiles; in New
Jersey the farmers own 1885 cars,
while in Pennsylvania 76,491 ma
chimes are accounted for on the farms.
The manufacturers in Detroit who
conducted the survey report that about
30 per cent. of the entire farm popu-
lation of the country own cars, the
majority having one, but about every
other family 1t is claimed, own two
or more, not including trucks or trac-
tors.
The survey was made and completed
with the help of the Agricultural De-
partmcnt census figures and while it
was Impossible for the industry to
reach every farmer personally and get
an accurate check on the automobile
situation, it is said more than. so per
cent. Of the farmers were reached.
Those who did not already have an
automobile in the majority of cases
It is said. we're planning on getting
one within short time.
The figures have shown the sales
departments of The leading automotive
industries in Detroit that by far a
greater percentage Of persons on. the
farms own cars, or are planning on one
in the Immediate future, than in the
cities, when the per capita population
Is considered,
Within the next few months it is
expected that figures will be compiled
showing the pro rata ownership in
the cities and based on what little
material is now available at the fac
tories the sales organizations assert
that the middle and far west owns,
by far, the greater number of cars,
when the city is considered.
The census figures have shown that
in the South Atlantic District 49, per
cent. of the farm population have cars
while in the Mountain District the
percentage is 37.6 and in the Pacific
regions A7.2.
The nineteen states having the
greatest number Of cars on farms as
compared with the volume of business
which has been done in the districts
are: New Jersey, North Dakota,
Montana, Idaho, South Dakota, Della
ware, Maryland, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana,
Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico,
Arizona, Utah, Nevada and California.

That was her one bad bet. Ihe year
1881 had it's inning 40 years ago with
out making any pcrccptible dent in the
crust Of the world. This dire prophecy
did however, stir up considerable fear
and trembling during the latter months
of 1880 and the early months Of 1881
among the superstitiously inclined, not
only throughout this country, but
pretty much all over the world.
Little Known of Parentaee.
In an ancient English history may be
found this interesting account of
Mother Shipton's life:
I'm 1886 there lived a woman called
Agatha Shpton, at KnaresbOrough, in
Yorkshire. She was born, according to
general accounts, in the reign Of Henry
VII, and baptized by the abbot of Bev-
erly in the name of Agatha Southeil, a
circumstance which proves by the
surname being of foreign extraction by
the fathers side, who probably came
over with the Bretaique associates OF
the earl of Richmond, after Henry VII.
VERY little is known of her parent
age, but wren "a years old she was
courted by one Toby Shipton, builder
Of ShiptOn, n village situated four
miles from the city of York. This
match goes to disprove the vulgar idea
of her body being crooked, her face
frightful and her whole appearance
disgusting. With respect to her gift
OF prophecy, we have no other au-
horities than traditionary revelations
from father and son, as no written ac-
count concerning her life can pc found
prior to the reign of Charles II.
Tod os Her Own Death.
Never day passed but she related
something remarkable. that required
the most serious consideration and now
it was that people fiOcked from far and
near. all returning wonderfully salts
fed with the explanations she gave to
their queStions. Mother Shipton now
became famous for her notable judg-
ment in things to come.
"Thc last prediction Of Mother Ship
ton was concerning her death and
when the time she had prophesied ap-
preached she called together her
friends, advised them well, took n
solemn leave Of them and laying her
self down on her bed departed this life
with much serenity upward Of 73 years
of age, in the reign of Queen Elizabeth
A. d. 1861.
after her death a monument Of
stone was erected to her memory in
the high road between the village Of
Clifton and Shipton. The monument
a woman on her knees
with her hands closed in a praying
posture. The stone bore the follow
ing epitaph.
Here lies she who never ly'd,
Who's skill often has been try'd.
Her prophecies shall still survive,
And ever keep her name alive.
