An interesting sight every day dur
ing the Ohio State fair. at Columbus,
WIS stock Lexington touring car
pulling a fveton steel sprinkling
tank.
This performance on the race track
never failed to bring forth applause.
One day the Lexington dealer. G.. w.
Van Dorm, drove thirty miles an hour,
but at this speed the tank began
swaying so much that thereafter he
averaged between eight and twelve
miles an hour, always in high gear.
The tank had previously been pulled
by ffteen-ton Army truck until Mr..
Van Dorm volunteered TO show the
prowess Of the Ansted engine. He
used a stock car. which had been
driven more than $4,000 miles for
this purpose. and hitched the tank on
to the tire carrier.
This is considered one OF the most
conclusive tests to prove strength Of
chassis construction.

NEW DISTRIBUTOR
FOR COLUMBIA

The Kanouse Auto Company have
been appointed distributors for the
new Columbia SIX in Indiana and
Just as soon as the territory men
have access to demonstrators work
will be begun on a dealers organlza-
ton.
The Columbia line includes the IA
nous light six which has been one OF
the outstanding successes OF 1922.
This car was the first six-cylinder car
in recent years to be offered at less
than 81 900 and is the lowest priced
specialized unit six on the market
today. Its chassis includes such
well-known units az a fifty horse
power Continental Red Seal Motor,
Thinker axles, Borg & Beck clutch.
Gemmer steering gear, Spicer univer-
sal joints. Stromberg carburetor and
Auto-Lite electrical equipment.
The Kanouse Auto Company has
not handled a medium priced car since
1917 at which time the Interstate car
was sold exclusively by them in In
diana. The popularity OF a car sell
ing around the thousand dollar mark
is so much in evidence that It prac-
tically removed all doubt as to the
success Of the Columbia line.
In order to introduce the line the
Kanouse Auto Company will keep
open House" during the coming
week. They will remain open every
evening until ten o'clock. Demon
strators will be on the streets and
those who are Interested in a high
grade medium priced car may have

that the men, whose duty 1t was to
make the awards, found that they
had a very difficult task.
For several years those who were
interested in the production and prop
err distribution of meat-bearing ami
mails on the American continent, had
realized the pressing need of "a cam
paign of education among farmer:
and live stock growers that woult
stir up a desire to produce farm ami
mails of more uniform quality and o.
superior flavor and texture as edibl,
meat. Many of the men who took al
active interest in this promotion worl
were connected in some way with tn,
meat business and were congnizan'
of the fact that the meat eaters o
the country were, every year; demand

men perceived that live stock pro

keeping pace with the rapid increas'
in the population. They foresaw tn
curtailment of western range opera
lions and realized that the country
meat crop must in the future be pro
duced by the general farmer. Al
increasing demand for meat made /
apparent that the rate of animal pro
duction must be increased and tn
fact that the producing area coul'

need of more intensive methods.
One of the leading incentives to
