ITS PRICES
$500
Models and Improved Quality
Of Machines to Remain
Unchanged

The Nash Motors Company has
announced price reductions ranging
up to $500 on the advanced six and
special six lines The new low
prices are effective November +.
No change has been made IN the
Mash models themselves. and the
character and quality Of the cars
remain exactly as before.
This sweeping Nash cut IN prices
is, in effect, double reduction ac-
cording to q. H. .McCarty, general.
sales manager Of the Mash Motors
Company.
When the new Nash models were
nationally introduced July 23. says.
Mr.. McCarty, they presented new
and original body designs, far-reach-
ing improvements in construction,
and many refinements IN engineer
Ing and equipment all OF which en-
tailed large increases in manufac-
turing cost.
ssIf Nash sales and production
had not been smashing all records
for volume at that time, we would
certainly have been compelled to
increase prices materially. But
Nash prices were held at the same
figure and the response on the part
of the public to this offering OF
greater value and greater quality
was instantaneous and countrywide
In the three months period since
national Nash inaugural day, July
%, when these new cars were first
placed on display, sales have more
than equalled one-half the sales for
/ the entire year OF 1924, which was
a banner year for Nash. So that
/ 1t Is now possible for US to make
/ these sweeping reductions on the
advanced six and special six lines
and thus pass on the earned bene-
1 fits OF record breaking production
to buyers.
There has been no cheapening
| OF materials, construction or manu-
featuring. The same high stand
| ards Of quality and workmanship
that have earned a worldwide repu-
tation for G. w. Nash as a builder
i of high-grade cars are strictly
maintained.
/ And the aims OF the Nash Motor
Company to continually give great.
er quality and greater value in its
product is now attained In higher
degree than ever before. Unques-
tionably this present series of
advanced six and special six models
are the finest cars that have ever
borne the Nash name plate. And
the soaring demand from all sec
/ tions Of the world is the best evil
! dence of that.

BRED ASSOCIATIONS AID THE
FARMER

An association for the promotion
of the welfare of any given breed of
live stock has wonderful oppor-
tunity to do lot of good and at the
same time further it's own interests.
The scrub and grade sire that are
still being too generally used should
be replaced with pure-breds. 1t is
the pure-bred sire that deserves his
share of the credit for the improve
ment in type and performance that
To get the farmer who is using
a scrub sire to change is worthy
undertaking. The good results that
come from the use of better breed
ing males is evident in most COM
munities, yet in these same COM
munities scrub breeding stock still
continues to be used. Every live
stock farmer should try to breed the
type of animal which is most pro-
fitable for his purpose.
Members of a breed association
working together as a unit can do
much. There are instances where
the members of state or local as
ISOLATION agree to give pure-bred
sires at little or no cost for the use
of farmers who have only a scrub
or grade male, Sometimes the
breeder takes as pay for his pure
bred the beef price that the farmer
receives for his scrub. In other
cases pure-bred sires are loaned out
free for a two year period.
The policy of holding public sales
to which only pure-bred males are
consigned has proven successful in
some localities. Such consign-
ment by breeders makes possible
variety of offerings from which
buyers make their selections.
Any method of pure-bred sire dis.
tribution which makes it easy fer a
farmer to get a start will increase
the demand for better stock during

The Board decided to use anthra-
cite coal in all of the schools. The
contract was awarded to the last
named, the lowest bidder, in each
district for anthracite coal. Per-
mission was granted, on account OF
the threatened strike to make de-
livery of the coal as soon las
possible.
A petition was presented from the
patrons of the Southampton School,
requesting that this school, which
was closed three years ago and the
children transported to the Leeds
School be re-opened. Later in the
morning a contemplation was pre-
sented from the patrons of the
Southampton School, requesting that
the Board continue to transport the
schol children of that section to the
Leeds school, stating that they had
better qualified teachers at Leeds
and that the Southampton school,
having been closed for three years,
was beyond repair. The Board de-
cided to continue to transport the
children to Leeds.
The meeting was then adjourned.
