A very curious propensity Of the
wolverine is its habit of stealing and
carrying away articles which can be
of no possible use to it, says the Amer
lean Forestry Magazine. An instance
is recorded where these animals re-
moved and concealed the whole para
phernalia of an unoccupied hunters
lodge, including such articles as guns,
axes, knives, cooking vessels and
blankets.
Experienced hunters and trappers
claim that big wolverine may weigh
as much as 60 pounds, but that so
pounds is the more usual weight.
They are very tenacious of life and
instances are on record when the ami
NAL has been shot through and
through the chest and not succcmbed
to the wound. In such cases of
course, the heart is not penetrated.

l27,249 FoRDs SOLD IN APRIL
Ford Retail Sales Hit New High
Mark

According 10 a report just received
from the Ford Rotor Company, De-
troit, daily average of 5,210 retail
sales of Ford cars and trucks had been
reached by the close of April in the
United States alone.
Ford sales of cars and trucks for
the next month, including both domes-
tic and foreign, totaled 127,249. This
establishes new high record, exceed
ing the largest previous month, June,
1921, by 15,467.
The sale of Fordson tractors has
also been steadily climbing. A total
Of 11,181 Fordsons were sold during
April in the United States, daily av-
erage of 469 having been reached by
the end of the month. This gives the
tractor a new high sales record, and
shows 100 per cent increase over the
best n.onth in 1921.
The Ford Company is enjoying a
banner year in all departments. Out
put of Ford cars and trucks for the
year, according TO present estimates,
will exceed 100000, which represents
a ten per cent increase over 1921.
The Ford factory at Detroit is now
operating at full capacity, having
force of more than 10000 men on the
payroll. The scheduled output for
May will probably reach $4,000 cars
and trucks, which will be applied
against orders approximatirg 165, 900.
Despite the attempt of the factory
and the twenty-three assembling
plants in the United States to produce
a sufficient number of cars to meet
the unusually heavy demand, it has
been impossible for Ford dealers, in
most cases, to make immediate deliy-
cries.
