What others say-not what you

one must accept that fact.
We had the money, the plants, the

secured the men.
We told those men to build for us
the utmost in fine motor cars, regard
less of all costs. We pledged them

Wavered. In all changing
conditions they have
brought new ulster to that
name.
Men come and go, but
name like this becomes e.
heritage to foster and en- ~
nance. That's what we've
done - we who have that pc
name in keeping for time.
Studebaker has always
been a leader. For two gen a.
erations it led in horse 81
drawn vehicles, now prod or
ucts of the past. " m
Most of you remember
Studebaker carriages - -
queens of their time. They
were used by nultitudes of people
who loved quality and style.
When motor cars succeeded them
Studebaker became the logical leader
in that field. Any other place would
have been an anomaly.
The only svay to the top
A concern of this age has one fact
migrated in it's fiber. The only way
to leadership is through super
service.
The leader must excel in all you
seek in quality, in beauty and ir
value. There is no other way to the
top. Every stretch of the road is
strewn with wrecks of those who
tried another.

Al-Steel Combination
Truck New Ford Product
Combination Truck Body And
Cab Mounted On One Ton
Chassis is Sold as Com
plete Unit.

The Ford Motor Company enters
the new year with new product Jan
all-steel combination truck body and
cab mounted on the standard Ford
One Ton chassis to be sold as a COM
plete unit.
The new body is of the open ex-
press type, so constructed that it may
be readily converted into other body
combinations by using stakes, side
boards, canopy top, screen sides, etc.
"In fact" says the Ford statement,
''the purpose in producing the new
body was to place a low cost general
utility truck, meeting both agricul-
tural and commercial requirements at
the disposal of ton truck users
The body is built of steel to with
stand the most severe usage and pre-
sents new development in construc-
ton. The steel stills are reinforced
with wood in order to lessen vibration
and road shocks, thus making for
more durability and longer life.
The loading space is seven feet two
inches in length by four feet in width
and of convenient and practical depth
The end gate is strongly braced and
secured by heavy chains which hold
it in position when lowered.
The cab, also of steel construction
is extra roomy. The seat is of arti.
fetal leather, well-cushioned on foul
inch springs. Protection from the
weather is afforded by close fitting
door curtains mounted on uprights
and opening and closing with tho
door. An oblong window in the back
of the cab gives ample facilities fol
rear vision, adding to the safety as
we'll as the convenience of the
driver.
The new truck which is already or
display in many Ford dealers show
rooms throughout the country, sells
complete with steel cab and body fol
| $500 F. o. B. Detroit, being priced ir
accordance with the standard Fore
policy.
In addition to the saving Offered
truck users in this body, is the econ
venience of now being able to buy
Ford Ton truck complete and ready
to put into service.

Hidden Foes In
Seed Potatoes
Potato Growers In County Fa-
miliarized With Nature OF
Many Diseases of Crop.

For the last two weeks potato
growers and farmers were given the
privilege of attending a series of
Farm Bureau Local and community
meetings held in twelve different
communities in the county.
The chief object Of these meetings
was to familiarize the potato growers
with the nature of many of the dis
eases etlecting the potato crop. At
each one Of these meetings a moving
picture entitled Hidden Foes in Seed
Potatoes" was shown. This picture
was loaned by the U. S. Department
OF Agriculture and shown by the En-
tension Service Of Maryland.
Only through the medium of a NOV
ing picture film could the problem of
potato diseases be brought face to
face with the rural people. This film
outlined tour taken through the po-
tato district of New Jersey last sum-
mer. Some of the fields visited by
this tour showed excellent examples
Of plants affected with the Mosaic
disease resulting in the curly dwarf,
which is known by all potato growers
in the county by the dwarf plants that
occur in most of the fields thus cut
ting down their yields and bringing
encouragement and loss to the in
dustry.
The film showed not only the dis
eased plants, but by rouging out such
plants from the late seed fields the
disease could be greatly eliminated.
The leaf roll and the spindling tuber
were also pictured and it was shown
how the rouging out of such plants
from the field would also do much to
increase yield and produce seed of
better quality. The actual operation
of dipping potatoes in solution of
corrosive sublimate, four ounces to
thirty gallons of water for one hour,
to control the potato scab and Rhi-
zoctonia was illustrated, showing the
use of the most up-to-date and labor
saving methods.
DR.. Jehle, who talked on this SUBJ
ject, illustrated with charts the i'm
portance of eliminating poor seed at
cutting time by discarding seed af-
fected with black leg and wilt, char
acterized by the black ring around
the edge of the potato and the dark
spot at the stem end.
II is only through the medium of a
mcving picture lantern. that more than
eight hundred people attending these
meetings were able to see these dis
eases and know how to eliminate or
combat them.
The directors of the Worcester
County Farm Bureau are certainly to
be commended for their splendid CO.
operation and forethought in provid-
ing moving picture outfit, the best
that could be bought, which is capa-
BILE of generating its own current ev-
en- when no electricity is available
and, therefore, providing an oppor-
tunity to distribute information a
long all lines to the people Of the
county.
1t is the intention to continue the
use of this moving picture machine
each month and bring something of
particular Importance before the pub
lie to assist them in better farming
methods, which will no doubt result
in increasing the income from agri-
culture many thousand dollars each
year. The public will always be well
come to attend these meetings.
