ton farmer, had az unpleasant expe-
rience and narrow escape from
death Wednesday from a peculiar
case Of poisoning. Mr.. Winn was en-
gagged during the day in cleaning
the. mold off some cured meat, and
believes he must have had slight
scratch or abrasion on one Of his fin
gers. Wednesday evening he mo-
tored to Weston with Mrs. Winn to
attend choir rehearsal at the Meth
odist church. After the rehearsal
he collapsed AMI, suffering great
pain, was carried to the office Of DIR.
Mckinney, where prompt measures
were necessary to ward off convuls-
iohs. Swift recovery followed, how
ever, and he was able later to drive
his car home.

FORD TELLS STORY
OF HIS LIFE
Farm Work Drove Him To Max
ing Automobiles He says In
Story in McClure's
(By Associated Press

(By Associated Press)
New York, Apr. 25-Life on +;
farm drove Henry Ford into
making automobiles.
Mr.. Ford says so himself in al
article which he calls "My Life
and Work." written by himself
in McClure's Magazine for May
with the collaboration of Sam
uel Crowther, editor and author
And Mr.. Ford still feels the
same way about farming. MOI
that he has anything against
farmers, he points out, but there
is too much hard hand labor
on farms" Because he was born
on a farm and knew without {
question just what farming
means, Mr.. Ford invented an all
tomobile with which he hoped
first, to Tighten the farmers tasl
and, second, to aid people with
out lot of money in their
search for entertainment anC
business relief.
That, in a nutshell, is wha'
Mr.. Ford's article gives as til,
reason for the Ford car. Incl
dentally it is the reason for his
interest in farm tractors and fol
a lot of other things which have
happened in Detroit recently.
The automobile, however, Just
did escape being a watch. Mr.
Ford had a desire to do fine me
canical work and his idea natur-
ally turned to watches, he says
At one period of those early
days he had 800 watches arc
knew what made the wheels &C
around in every one of them. Ii
was then he thought ofthe pos
sibility of making a watch for
so cents. In fact, he says, he al
most started in the business but
refrained when he figured out
that watches were not a necessi-
ty and so could not be sold.
Just how | reached that sur
prising conclusion is difficult to
state, now" he observes.
But the combination of the
farm and the watch, and the
sight when he was only II of a
road engine was too much for
anything plebian in Mr.. Ford's
future. He started to consider
the possibility of machines and
after glancing at that ng.ne,
studying it, watching changes,
reading and thinking, Mr.. Ford
branched out into the automo-
tive industry.
OF course, says Mr.. Ford, the
horseless carriage was a COM
mon idea. He had it, as did sew
eral other inventors. But Mr..
Ford figured that steam was the
best means for moving his car,
and he set about making a ma
chine to operate by steam. He
built one, and it ran. But it had
defects, lots of them. He very
carefully points out most OF
them. When he found he could
not work out his difficulties to
his satisfaction, he turned to gas

ton"
Shortly after that the farm
was left behind definitely ant
completely when Mr.. Ford went
to Detroit as an engineer anc
machinist for the Detroit Elec,
trio Company at exactly $45 q
month. The job wasn't much il
itself but its great beauty lay ii
that it kept him out in his work
shop for he had spare time and
he employed it.
Two years later Detroit got a
thrill. Chug-chugging down its
main, streets came the gas-bug-
gy. In the seat was Henry
Ford. Behind it was a string OF
frightened horses and curious
people. In front of it was a bull
wark of wondering thousands.
Henry Ford had found way to
ride without horses to drag him.
The machine, however, was a
slight problem. To begin with,
it blocked traffic. Not that it
stalled, but every time Mr.. Ford
stopped the crowd started and
he could not in safety leave the
car moment. Always there
was some curious soul who
would climb aboard, play with
the brakes or the clutch and
then trouble commenced.
Finally, it came to a show
down with the city authorities.
At last, writes Mr.. Ford, altho
there were no speed laws, no
traffic ordinances, he had to get
l permit from the Mayor to OPP
crate his machine.
Thus, for a time" he con-
tinues, Il enjoyed the distinction
Of being the only licensed chauf-
Teur i'll the country"
Mr.. Ford ran that first ma
chine LOCO miles until 1896 and
then sold it. 1t took him four
years to make the first sale of a
Ford automobile, but he imme-
diately did what he has done
since-put his profits into build
ing a new and better car.
All this time Mr.. Ford was
working for the Electric Com
pany. He had become foreman
at $125 a month but his gas en-
CINE experiments were not pop
ular at the shop. The trouble
was they believed in electricity
completely, and were at least
mildly sceptical about gas.
Fairly soon, therefore, MIR.
Ford left the electric company.
That was when a group of men
willing to take a chance stepped
in and organized the Detroit
automobile Company. Mr.. Ford
was chief engineer. He owned
a small block of stock and it
was his car they sold. There
were disagreements over ques-
lions of finance and auto devel-
opment, and Mr.. Ford quit. He
took his patents with him, open
ed the famous one-story brick
shed and proceeded to build and
sell about Oscars. About that
time-it was then 1902, Mr.. Ford
won a road race in one of his
own cars and business began to
pick TIP.
Formation of the Ford Motor
Car Company was the result.

writes Mr.. Ford, ''that never
would I join a company in which

which bankers or fnanciers had
