pleted.
The publication, Automotive Indus
tries, says that domestic retail deliveries
of passenger cars during early Septem-
ber showed decline of from is to 20
per cent, compared with the same
period in August Distribution, how
ever, has been well in excess OF factory
output, and apparently the industry's
chiefs have made certain there will be
little if any bargain selling" when
the time comes to suspend production
of 1884 models.
Used-Car Sales OFF.
The same is not true of uSed-car
stocks, if surveys made by some OF
the leading statistical agencies cor
rectly appraise the situation. Sales
of used cars are reported to have eased
off considerably, with stocks beginning
to accumulate. Like the tapering of
in new-car distribution, however, this
condition is an annual one which the
used-car dealers have tried to antici-
pate. That there will be some loss in
the cleaning up of used-car stocks
later in the year is the more or less
general expectation in trade circles.
The used car and the problem 1t
presents to the industry are considered
in trade circles as inevitably tied in
with the merchandising of new cars
inasmuch as new-car sales during the
last decade or so have been mainly a
matter of replacement This, as the
sales authorities explain 1t. merely
means that for the great majority OF
new cars sold the dealers are obliged
to accept used one as part payment,
and used-car stocks accumulate
likes it or not.
One point of comfort the automo-
bile dealer has found recently is that
better used cars have been offered
as part payment on new vehicles
Last year and In the earlier months
of this year, many badly used cars
were brought out of hiding and offered
ClI4lCA Ill IllC Pul SIAooC Va q I4C" SoA
or on secondhand vehicle Of more
recent manufacture.
In this fact the used-car dealers
find hope that the forced selling OF
secondhand cars during the re-
mainder of the current year will not
be of large proportions.
British Sense of Humor.
Who says the British have not a
sense of humor?
According to report from London
in the Gas Tax News, published in
America, British motorists are pro-
posing tax upon bicycles. Ten mil
lion cyclists wobbling along the high
ways are annoying automobiles to nc
end, the report states. Nuisances anc
menaces to highway safety. they cal
them.
Besides British motorists are ready
to have go at this whole tax mess
High horsepower and gasoline taxes
have forced them to drive baby
cars. They are growing about Hchis-
sellers" getting free rides on roads built
at motorists expense
So it looks as if new words must be
fitted to that old song-"On Bicycle
Taxed for Two"

Consumer Demand Heavy.

NO11uuCf OCIudh0 x1C6Vys
The automotive industry is expert
encing this year a trend in consumer
demand that in many respects is du-
plicating the course of last year, which
marked the actual beginning of the
upward movement in distribution after
three years of receding sales, accord
ing to Associated Press reports.
Demand has held up far beyond the
traditional tapering-of period which
in previous years has come early in
July. Last year the demand continued
until well into the late Summer and
early Fall weeks. Under the impetus
of several strategic moves on the part
of the industry's production and dis
tribution chiefs the trend of last year
not only has been duplicated for 1884,
but new-car distribution has been in
creased to the extent that not less
than 2,8O0,000 cars and trucks will
have been produced by the end of the
current year.
Statistical agencies Of the industry
generally say the stock reduction pc
Rod definitely is at hand, although less
has been heard about new-model plans
during the last fortnight than was the
case around the hrst Of August. The

cure of our grandmothers oldfash-
ioned, she says.
A quarter of century ago, says
Mrs Gerlaugh, we had to be con-
tent with foods held over, stored in
the cellar or ground, dried. picked
or canned.
Canning had not achieved the
perfection of method known to the
home or commercial Gamer of to-
day, and by springtime folks were
very hungry for certain vitamins
and mineral salts in which their
diets had been deficient or lacking.
Hence, spring fever.
Some foods are excellent tonics.
The body regulating, or tonic, foods
are those valued as a source of min
erals-compounds of calcium, phos-
phorus, iron, copper, iodine, ETC.
those valued as source of vita
Minis, and those valued for their
bulk. Most important of the regu-
latory foods are milk, eggs, vege-
tables and fruits.
Green leafy vegetables, carrots,
eaulif1ower, celery, endive, dry le-
gumes, parsnips, rhubarb, turnips,
and milk, add calcium to the diet
Many of the foods that contain cal
cium also contain phosphorus. Eggs,
liver, and green vegetables also are
good iron tonics.
A fine vitamin A food may be
made by combinations of green veg
etables and milk. Green and yell
low foods furnish generous amounts
Of vitamin A. A red tomato is full
of vitamin G..
vitamin B. So are yeast, milk,
fruit and vegetables. Fish oils and
eggs supply vitamin D.
