DODGE PLANS FIRST
STEEL CLOSED CARS
NEW DESIGN OF COUPE HAS
VARIOUS IMPROVEMENTS
OVER OLD TYPES.

Behind the simple phraseology Of
an announcement which Dodge
Brothers, are publishing today in
every important city and town in
America, lies the story of a new
achievement IN automobile develop
ment. Dodge Brothers announce u
business coupe; conservative changes
in the body design of all other
types" the advertisement reads.
The business coupe is the first
all-steel closed car ever marketed. In
this respect it takes new and dis
tinct place in automotive history,
for it involves an entirely unique
principle of coupe body construction
The steel body not only practically
| eliminates the problem of limited
production, due to the tedious and
costly Individual workmanship re-
quired on wood bodies, but also en-
ables the manufacturers to give the
coupe the same lustrous baked ena-
mel finish which has already contri-
buted so much to the reputation Of
Dodge Brothers open cars. This pro-
cess in itself will also facilitate
quantity production. as an enormous
amount of time was consumed here
tofore in applying the numerous
coats of paint required on wood.
Naturally, these are important fac
tors in the determination Of the
selling price, resulting in economies
which Dodge Brothers are passing
directly to the purchaser. Wood is
practically eliminated from the con-
struction of this car" said Mr.. Ne
KeraH, of the McKerall Motor Car
Co., Franklin dealers. even the
framework and panels are of steel,
and the natural result is lighter
quieter and more durable car. Steel
prolongs life and reduces the posi-
bility of squeaks and rattles."

HELPFUL HINTS IN RAISING
CHICKENS.

In order to produce strong, heal
5hy, rapidly growing chickens an alb
undance of fresh air is absolutely
necessary, says Harley L. Williams
poultry specialist in the State Uni
versity Extension Division. Every
coop in Louisiana that does not have
an open front wired or screened
should be reconstructed so as to
meet the necessary sanitation re
1uirements, he says.
"Chicks should not be allowed to
crowd in small coops and should be
moved out to larger quarters as
soon as necessary" says Mr.. Will
liams. f'The cockerels and pullets
should be separated just as soon as
the sexes can be readily distinguish
ed, as both will do much better when
his practice is observed. This sep
aration can be made very efficiently
and easily by marketing the surplus
cockerels, retaining only a few of
she best for breeding stock.
"a small amount Of permanganate
of potash used in the drinking water
weekly will serve as good disin-
fectant and also as tonic. The wat
ar should be colored a wine red with
The permanganate of potash. Care
should be taken not to put the mix
ture in zinc, iron or tin drinking
vessels.
"Now is a good time of the year
20 plow up or spade the chicken
wards, using generous amount of
lime on same. If lice are on the hens
shey should be treated with sodium
f1uoride. If mites abound in the poul-
sry house give it a thorough cleaning
and disinfect."

THE DAY THAT NEVER DIEo.

No day Of the Christian calendar

Quite a discussion is springing up
as to who is our richest man. Some

others claim that Henry Ford Is en-

One enterprising writer suggests
that the question be settled by re

that would only serve to increase
the doubt. Tax receipts are very de-
ceptive and misleading. There is,
however, one way in which a solu-
tion to the problem could be found
