CHEVROLET SALES
MARK NEW RECORD

The Chevrolet Motor company,
largest manufacturer of three-speed
cars, shattered two of its marks
during September, when it estab-
lished a monthly record of ST.
1913 passenger cars and trucks and
attained a production total of $685.
2S1 units for the first nine months
of 1926, %eclipsing the half-million
production of the entire twelve
months of 1925, Chevrolet's great
est year.
Neither of these figures have
ever been approached by any build
er of cars with three-speed selective
transmissions.
The September production aver
aged 1881 units daily for the "a
working days of the month. This
also is a new record. The S1,15S
total for September followed several
recent months of notwithstanding
production. April, May and June
with respective productions of H.
1877, 1857 and 1924, each es-
tablished successive production rec
ords. July production was restrict
ed somewhat to permit the tooling
and other changes necessary to eff
feet several further improvements
in the Chevrolet models. August
production then snapped up to 49,
551 units, only $50 fewer cars than
were built in June, which stood as
Chevrolet's high record until out
distanced by September.
Chevrolets entire 1925 produc-
ton was $4,000. This is 74,221
units less than 1926 production to
the end of September. The 1925
total was passed during the second
week of September.
Chevrolet's remarkable progress
may be shown by the fact that the
company has produced so far dur
ing 1926 a number of units approx
imately equal to the entire Chevro-
let production from 1912 to 1920
inclusive, the first nine years dur
which Chevrolets were manufac-
tured.
These records are primarily the
result of public confidence said
w. S. Knudsen, president of the
Chevrolet Motor company. "We are
all grateful for this confidence and
will continue our efforts to merit
the high endorsement which the
public has conferred upon the Chev-
rolet car"

NEWS NOTES FROM THE
COUNTY AGENTS OFFICE

A car load of pure bred Hamp-
shire and C~orriedale bucks were I'M
loaded at Powell Saturday night.
These sheep are owned by Malcolm
Moncrieffe of Sheridan and are be
ing sold at 500 a head.
On Saturday a number of sheep
men of the Powell fiat selected what
they wanted and these have been
delivered. There are a few left and
they are mighty good individuals.
1t will be a shame If these bucks
have to be shipped back.
There are too few pure bred
sheep in the county, one of the lead
ing sheep districts of the west.
Carl Thomson has about one hun
dred head of Ramboulette bucks
left for sale. These are yearlings
and two-year-olds. He has a good
price on these bucks and anyone
wanting fine wool sheep will do well
to get in touch with him immedi-
aely.
One of the jobs the extension
service wants to do is to help ev-
cry stockman, in the county get pure
bred sires. We know that this
work is a permanent advancement.
1t helps the individual and it helps
the community.
, 1926-10-13

There has been a number of peo-
pie who are prejudiced against the
use of young sires, especially sheep.
This matter has been taken up with
several good sheep men and they
are of the opinion that If the young
sires are well fed and taken care
of the results will be just as salts
factory as If older ones are used.
They should be well fed in the day
time and used at night.
The annual achievement day for
All club members was held in Pow
ell last Saturday. This was well
attended, there being present about

Der of mothers. A splendid lunch

ranged.
Mrs. NJ. P. Mortenson, nutrition
specialist, and F. L. Lane, county
agent leader, were here from the
university and gave interesting
talks about theid work.
The county extension agents pre-
sented the achievements pins and
charters to the club members.
This has been the best club year
in the history of the extension
work in Park county, and indica-
tons point toward a better year in
