far short of the mellow perfection

half century as tobacco manufacturers,
we have found nothing that equals age

bacco for smoking.
Velvet, therefore, is made entirely
of tobacco that has been truly aged

To give the motorist an idea of
the vast amount of automobiles and
auto accessories sold in the United
States and especially in the West,
r.. X. .StiVers, local manager of
the Western Auto Supply Company
has furnished the following infor-
nation.
There were on January 1st, 1924.
registered in the entire world, 49,
24l. l.477 automobiles. Out of shat
number there are registered within
the United States l5,222,65S, or
approximately So per cent of 1ll tn"
automobiles in the world are in our
country. When we realize that out
of the total of Is million cars m
the entire world 10 million are 10.
Gated in our own country, we begin
70 realize that the automobile in
dustrv is practically an American
industry, Even the ears that arc
used in other parts of the world are
largely made in America and eX-
polsed to other countries. There
are, of course, limited number of
cars made in the United Kingdom,
France. Italy and other nations, but
the quantity is very small compar-
ed with those made in the United
states.
There were manufactured in the
United States in 1923 more than
four million automobiles and trucks.
The wholesale value of these auto
nI
$2,51O,Ss5 100000 for 1923.
Tire Business Largo
The automobile tire and accessory
business is almost as large. For
instance, there were manufactured
in the United States last year over
45 million tires, having II whole
sale value of $760000,00. The
wholesale value of automobile ac-
cessorics and parts (not including
tires manufactured in the United
States in 1923 amounted to $3.50
U0O,UO0 or Il total for tires, parts
and accessories of 5000, 100000.
The total value of tires, accrsso-
ries and pants amounts to almost
as much as the total value of auto
mobiles and trucks.
Almost 3 per cent of our popula-
ton is employed in the automobile
and allied industries.
The Western Auto Supply Com
pany has at the present time 1l0
stores in operation and these fig
ures will show the small part the
Western Auto plays in this great
industry.
More than 5000 different items
are sold in every Western Auto
storn. The average total Of daily
customers of all our stores number
over 10000. About two thirds of
the merchandise sold consists of
tire sales. They will sell this yeaf
