"Two-Car-Family" Market.
s'The two-car family market Is a
comparatively recent development. IT
has been primarily brought about by
the development of the suburban. VII
, LACE and town communities about the
larger cities. together with the frequent
need of two cars by professional and
business men for the requirements OF
their business, social and family life.
The last figures of the National
Automobile Chamber of Commerce re-
veal that there are 2.700.000 two-car
families in the United States. These
same statistics show that 10 per cent
Of all families own more than one car.
while Is per cent of car-owning families
have more than one Car. This market Is
steadily increasing one.
Thus the four factors that go to
make up the automotive market-re-
placement, export. two-car families and
natural growth or virgin market
have tremendous clements of growth in
herent in them.
All of these in turn are dependent
upon a continuance of the conditions
we have had during the last five years.
The farm situation is better than 1t has
been for years. and the amount Of
money the farmer has to spend is one
of the basic factors to be taken into
consideration in any prediction as to
future business prosperity.
Farm Prosperity Is Aid.
"The average crop prices for all the
principal farm commodities, save eggs
and horses. are now above the l909-l9l4
average. and some of them have dou-
bled. Increased farm prosperity means
increased industrial prosperity. The
money value of the crops has been
somewhat conservatively put at $780,
100000 in excess of the total of 1925.
The gain is not so large proportionately.
but as an increase in the margin of
profit it is of immense buying impor-
lance to the farmers and Of prosperity
to other industries.
Bank credit is at the present time
abundant and interest rates low. There
conditions. The prices of most raw ma
terials are low enough to stimulate a
normal volume of consumption. The
abundance of oil and the low prices Of
steel are two conditions particularly IA
vorable TO the automotive industry.
Il find in travelling about the coun-
try that there is extreme confidence in
the future. have also found that
stocks on hand are extremely small,
which bodies well for the manufacturers
III the basic industries. The slight de-
preston Of the last three months of
last year in the automotive industry
and in business in general has had q
salutary effect on business as a whole.
Il feel that business during 1928 will
reverse the trend of the last year by
starting lower and ending higher. AS
the year goes on believe prosperity
win increase. And I believe that the
automotive industry will set new high
record to date"

spread his transportation costs over a
greater period Of years.
That this condition will continue to
develop is quite likely, for there are no
new factors to disturb the situation
nothing to affect the makers or deal
ers' profits favorably or unfavorably
which have not been present and dis
counted within the last two years. Even
the new lines offer nothing of a sur
pristng nature, but rather show steady
progress toward a better product, in
which all are concerned.
Such state of affairs Is stabilizing
and operative to the best interests Of
all concerned. even the non-buyer, for
1t improves both labor and wage condi-
tons.

LUBRICATION WEEDS.
Change Held Necessary in Various
Degrees of Weather.

Car owners usually recognize the need
for a lighter lubricant In transmission,
differential and engine when the mcr-
curry drops. Why not extend this con-
sideration to other units? The steering
and spring shackles are particular places
where lighter fabrication is distinctly in
order. A heavy grease hardens when
cold. and because of this certain parts
Of the steering and shackles are operat-
ing dry. Since they are moving parts
the effect is wear. A heavy oil should
supplant the grease used in warm
weather and even this we'll might be
thinned with ordinary medium oil from
time to time

Politics is assuredly sover.
eign in the nation when four
bishops of the Methodist church
south, openly advocated the
union of such and state insofar

will commit grievous and fatal
blunder if it encourages or tole-
rates a whispering campaign

of his religion or the falsely
alleged charge that a Catholic in

of Rome.
If the Catholic church should
not participate in politics neither
should the protestant. Metho.

bishops, is vehemently assailing
a cardinal principle of constitu.

an unenforceable law may be
jammed down the throats of a

actions and sympathies do not

if elected could have no more to
do with changing prohibition

The present fight between
prohibitionist and anti-prohibi.

them, but the real fight is be.

KNOCKOUTS FROM
THE BOWLING ALLEY
By BILL GIBSON

Well! The bowling league came to
a close after a most successful season
and on the play-off for the champion
ship of the league the Postoffice won
out over the Methodist team and took
up its march homeward with the ba-
con. But that didn't keep the players
and their friends from enjoying the
annual banquet which was very well
attended and at which a great amount
of enthusiasm was displayed over the
success attending the past season.
And the time of the year is ap-
preaching when the woodpeckers will
want to play home sweet home tunes
on daddy's wooden leg.
SO Reeves Blandford will open with
his spring song entitled 'No matter
how tough the steak may be, you can
stick your fork in the gravy"
That's why Erne Gortner puts on
his bathing suit to go into the pool
room.
Jim Kerins gave me to understand
that he was very calm and quiet as
a boy and that he honestly believes
that he could have sowed all his wild
oats with a needle.
But I'll bet the needle would have
broken before he had the chance to
use it.

I've been wondering what was the
matter with the Oakland boys while
performing against Rev. Funk's team
from Morgantown. They had so many
bad breaks and so many easy misses
l guess it was just a case of hot
feet and chills.

So here's how until the egg plants
hatch spring chickens.

prices today. Unfavorable weather for
corn movement tended also to give.
firmness to values. Opening unchanged

In addition to readiustments asso-

attention today to reports Of out-of-

Leading crop authority here. uuusnal

extent which NAV bring about a serious
