SPEED WAGON IS
POPULAR ON
FARMS
Joseph Trew Says Sales Are
Barometer of Agricultural
Prosperity

A very fair barometer of agricul-
fural prosperity exists in the form
tsea Speed Wagon sales chart ac-
rofdinE to Joseph Trew, president
Of the Trew Motor Company. deal
ers in the REQ motor cars and REQ
speedwagons.
sAlmost since the day of its in
PRODUCTION late in 1914 the Speed
Wagon has been favorite on the
farm says MIR. Trew." Naturally
Eales for agricultural use did not
constitute a great volume at the
outset. for at that time few farmers
were convinced of the saving in
time and money to be earned by
the adoption of motor transporta-
tion.
'fSales to farmers have always
been subject to an upward trend
due to the embarrassing number
who have seen the light in the
controversy between the motor
truck and the horse for general
rural haulage.
This upward trend has been
modified. however, by agricultural
financial conditions so that peaks
and valleys have existed even when
the general tendency among farm
ers has been to buy more Speed
Wagons each year than they bought
in the preceding. There have been
wears when the majority of farm
ers just naturally could not buy
anything not absolutely necessary
and other years when they. have
been able to build new barns and
houses and buy new farm equip
ment.
This year the record of Speed
Wagon sales to farmers is checking
accurately with what was predicted
for the farmer in the way of in.
creased Income and what experts
claim is actually being realized.
Mr. Trew said that the agricultural
Industry Is zen joying the best year
since the war period and sales
OF Speed Wagons to farmers the
country over are bearing out this
testimony"

Red" Oranges first game as pro-
fessional football player with the Chi
cago Bears against the Chicago Car
dinals yesterday was one Of the hard

That was the impression as he made
20 yards in gains, thrilled 5000
spectators by returning punts up to 20
yards and received some $4,000 as
his share Of the receipts. The game
was scoreless tie. -1i.- - 30
Grange made the longest gain of
the day from formation, six yards, and
made one Of the first downs for his
team. Joe SternamaD, also a former
University of Illinois player, made the
other. Grange intercepted a pass TO
prevent Cardinal touchdown, also.
Fearful of the long runs that made
the erstwhile Wheaton ice-man famous
on collegiate gridirons, the Cardinals
directed their punts TO any other sec

to grab three. At the finish he was

Both teams were made up of former
college stars, many of them former
All-American selections. An effort to
bring Johnny Layden, one of Notre

because his father dissuaded him.
G. c. Pyle, Oranges manager, said
the star had arranged to invest all Of

The former Illinois stars second ap-
