Peppermint Oil Is Stored
in Indiana Bank VaNlt

this time the old mint IS ready lot
a second cutting. Rain has little
effect on the crop. However, high
wind might blow the shallow-rooted
product from the ground.
After harvesting, the mint is
placed in large watts and tamped
down. An alright lid is placed over
the watts and the steam turned on
for about forty-five minutes. Each
vat full gives about eight to ten
pounds of oil. About three watts to
the acre is the limit.
Although the oil greatly resem-
bles water, it is about one-half
pound to the gallon lighter than
water.

new FORD LINE
ON DISPLAY AT
PLAYGROUND
Public Reception to Open
Friday; Will Explain
Changes, Features.

Indianapolis will get its first full
description of the new line of Ford
automobiles Friday.
A public reception by local dealers
is part of the national introduc
ton of the new Ford models. In
thousands of communities all over
the United States this new line Of
moderate priced light automobiles
will be introduced to millions of
people.
The doorS\of the Auto building at
State fairgrounds are to be opened
promptly at 9 a. m. and attendants
will be on hand throughout the
day to explain the new and inter-
esting features of the car which
is expected to make a new chapter
in automotiye history.
The new Ford cars are the prod
uct of several years of study and
planning by Henry Ford and his
engineers, in the great Ford labor
atorieS at Dearborn.
Pioneer in Its Field
Ford himself has announced that
"there is nothing quite like the new
Ford car" and has stated that it will
prove just as great a pioneer in the
present field of low-priced light cars
of quality as the famous Model T
was pioneer in its field for more
than nineteen years.
Among the visitors at the recep-
ton tomorrow will be many city
officials, executives Of business,
civic and professional organizations,
and other leaders in the life of the
community, specially invited.
Performance of these new cars,
It is said, will be startling when
viewed in the light of automobile
performance of the past.
Local dealers have been notified
by Ford officials at Detroit that the
factories throughout the country are
preparing to produce the new cars
in numbers exceeding even the tre-
mendous production records
achieved in the manufacture of the
Model T line.
Keep Up Old Line Parts
Company officials at Detroit also
repeated their early announcement
that production of the new Ford
line will not make the Model T line
obsolete. The manufacture of new
parts for Model T requirements will
continue to be an important factor
of the Ford plants as long as any
Of the Model T cars are in oper-
alton, the local dealers were adj
vised.
Because of this policy, present
owners of Model T Ford cars will
be able to keep their cars in per-
feet order as long as those cars re-
main in commission.
