REQ TAXICABS MEET FAVOR; JENKINS co.
 CALLS THEM RED TOPS

This IS the second season for the Reo taxicab and having watched it in the service of owners throughout the country for this length of time. we are able to say that no product of Rec engineering skill and of Rec facilities has ever given greater sat- isfaction to users" says R. c. Rues- chaw, sales manager of the Reo Motor Car company.
 "The tremendous demand, the ex- cess of orders over factory produc- ton, indicates that the Rec taxi cab--or Rec cab. as it is generally known-is enjoying unusual popu- larity among taxicab owners and op- orators. The success of the Rec taxi cab is a further indication to us of the fact that sound engineering prac- tices and sound engineering princi- pies win in the long run.
 We made no wild claims for the Rec taxicab, but we were content to wait for the operators inducements. and today these same operators and owners are claiming much more for their Rec taxicabs than we would permit any salesman to claim.
 1t is especially gratifying to us to. feel that the present demand for Rec taxicabs Is not result of &C., tual stimulation, but of steady growth. Things have moved so rapid ly in this industry, such tremendous advances have been made in the im- proyements in metal and their treat ment, and in manufacturing methods,

NEW PEERLESS COUPE IS GREAT FAVORITE

For the discriminating high grade car buyer the Peerless Mctor Car company has developed a special closed model called the suburban 1 coupe.
 This coupe Is vastly superior to the average two-door closed model pro- duced by other manufacturers. It is purposely different. There is much more room inside and the general ap- 1 pearance Is strikingly better bal anced.
 The worst objection to the coupe has been overcome in this Peerless 1 model, this objection being the lack or room between the front and rear seats. The Peerless factory sees no reason why coupe should be uncom- fortable or crowded simply because it Is compact. There is @ happy me- dium between ctmpactness and com fort and the ideal compromise is round in this suburban coupe. This special closed model Is very low and graceful. having none of the thrown-together appearance that is usual with coupes. It is furnished in sever Il pleasing color combinations that add to It's Individuality. There Is an exceptional air of good taste and refinement about this car which Is very apparent to people who ap- preciate the best of everything. This has been proven in the larger cities where 1t has received an enthusiastic welco---e among the representative people.
 The Peerless. coupe is, the ideal four or five-passenger motor ear for one who does net wish very large car. but rather one which Is easy to drive and economical. No car excels it for touring or city driving. and the Peer less factory, by specializing on the production requirements for this model, has been able to turn out this uncommonly fine car at a price far below competitors. However, a price increase was recently made effective, and the local distributor, Mccormack Brothers Motor company. state that they expect an increase on the entire Peerless line in the near future, as the Peerless factory has definitely stated their intention to build the finest car. regardless of price.
 Owners of truly fine cars who ex- pect to purchase a new car for this season will find in the new Peerless car of rare individuality and char aCter.

B|C INCREASE IN. OUTPUT |s NOTED. BY PA|GE-JE WETT
Is Reliable Evidence of Public Demand for These
 Very Popular
 Autos

With an increase of 100 per cent over December production and more than 3T5 per cent increase over Jam uary of 1922, the output of Paige and Jewett motor cars reached a now peak in January, according to re- ports received from the Paige fac- tory by Lawrence Pennington of the Detroit sMotor Car company. local Paige and Jewett dealers.
 "To appreciate fully what an achievement this means" says MT. Pennington, it must be remembered that this radical stepping-up of pro duction was made in midwinter at time when ordinary automobile sales are at their lowest point. Further more, the factory reports show more than 1000 untitled January orders on han1 which must be held over for January shipment.
 This extraordinary manufacturing activity Is the most reliable evidence that tho Jewett has made a permanent place for itself in the market, for dealer demand is only reflection of broad public acceptance and a ready sale.
 With more than 25,oO0 Jewett own CTS giving daily demonstrations of the fine performing qualities of this car and testffying to it's economy and dependability. we have every reason to believe that we will sell double the number of Jewetts this year that were sold in 1922. This is entirely aside from the Jewett specials we ex- pect to market, for the three new models have made a most favorable impression wherever they have been exhibited at the show. In this city as in every locality. surprising number of buyers have said that these Jewett specials offer exactly what they want-cars that are distinctive in appearance and complete to the last detail in modern equipment. yet moderate in price,"

28 DAYS ARE NEEDED TO PAINT PEERLESS WITH GREATEST CARE|

Preserving the 'new" appearance of an automobile tho greatest possi- ble length of time after 1t has reached it's individual owner is a problem that is being studied constantly by Peerless body engineers.
 Any automobiles "new" appearance, they agree. is primarily, in fact ai- most entirely. question of proper painting. Infinite care is taken at every stage of the Peerless painting operations to insure finish that will retain its original lustre as lsng as human ingenuity can devise.
 Each Peerless car takes 2S days to paint, with frequent Inspections made at every step Of the process. The same scientific consideration and in- dividual care is given as in the con. struction of bodies and chassis.
 From the time the body comes from the sand blast until it is passed for final inspection, coats of metal primer or filler, glaze. rough, color and color varnish, rubbing varnish and finish varnish follow each other, Several of the painting operations are or course repeated ono or more times.
 After each painting the body is placed in one of five drying ovens which have capacity of 50 bodies each, and remains there 24 hours, subject to the correct temperature which is maintained by steam heat and specially designed fans.
 All shipments of paint and var nish received by the Peerless Motor Car company are continually being analyzed to preserve the high quali- " standards necessary to meet Peer less painting specifications.

CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES
Plans for Bringing In Improved varis-
ties for Spring Planting Are
Being Laid.

Plans for bringing in OF certified
seed potatoes of improved varieties
for spring planting are being laid at
present by c. w. Naid. fruit and vege-
table expert of the Ohio Farm Bureau
federation. Last spring about 40 car
loads of improved varieties were pur-
chased by potato growers In number
of Ohio counties.
Inquiries in regird to the obtaining
of certified and improved stocks of po-
tatoes for seed purposes have already
been received by the federation from
. number OF counties II Is considered
likely that larger quantity of the
improved seed will be brought In than
was purchased year ago. Reports
received from those who used the i'm.
rorted seed this year state that they
gave higher yields of 5eiier stock than.
The common potatoes grown In these
sections. II Is expected that large
amount of the orders will be filled BY
bringing I'm certified ana impr, ed
stock from Michigan. where strong
OF organization of farmers has succeeded
in developing large supply of these
improved potatoes.
In several Ohio counties the certi-
fication of seed from imported stocks
has been developed this year.

STARLIGHT HEAT SPECTRUM
Scientist Of Smithsonian institution
Explains How II May Be
Determined.

BY measuring a hundred millionth
degree of temperature and triiiionth
Of an ampere Of electric current. DIR.
c. @. Abbot of the Smithsonian institu-
ton has determined for the first time
the heat spectrum of starlight, AS he
announced In an address ut the Car
negIe Institution of Washington.
Working with the 100-inch telescope
at Mount Wilson observatory this fall.
Doctor Abbot measured the heat at diff
ferent parts OF the spectrum OF ten
stars and the sun. The rays were dis
persed by spectroscope In Il band
similar to the rainbow.
The bright star Capella, which Is
very similar to our own sun In Its
spectrum, wns found to furnish the
equivalent of one horsepower to an
area on the earth approximately equal
to the state of Minnesota. But this
promlnent star Is feeble compared
with our sun. which Is equal to
hundred billion Oapellas and sends
down on twenty square feet heat equal
TO a horsepower. On the whole earth
Capella's heat equals 800 horsepower,
and as all the stars together equal
200 Capellns, this would amount to
one quarter million horsepower over
the whole earth from the stars alone.
