Packard Is Showing
Entirel y New Six

Packard enters 1887 with an
exhibit at the Auto Show Of a
line Of cars beginning with an
entirely new Six and extending
through an improved "12O" and
Super Eight to the luxurious
Twelve.
The new Six has a wheel base
of 115 inches, five inches shorter
than that of the "120", and is
equipped with an Lhead engine
said to develop 100 brake horse
power. Although slightly shorter
than the "120", the new car has
many similar features. It comes
in eight body styles. all with
hydraulic brakes.
Hydraulic Brakes
All Packard cars have servo
sealed hydraulic brakes and cen
trifugal brake drums, as well as
Safe e-T-fleX wheel suspension.
Another feature of the line is
the front seat adjustment system
which allows elevation in the
seat when moved forward, thus
reducing the back angle and keep
ing the seat orthopedically cor.
rect for people of varying sta
ture. Provision is made in all
the cars for a built-in windshield
defroSter working from the car
heater and an automatic heating
cigar lighter.
Allowance for baggage space has
been amply taken care of, the
touring models of the IS" having
roomy trunks. Interiors in the
IL, 8 and 120 have been COM

Setting at rest reports which
have been persistent that baby"
Ford was to appear on the market,
the Ford Motor Company an
nounced details Of the Ford V-S
for 1887, which today makes its
bow in Washington at the Auto
mobile Show and local Showrooms.
The 1887 Ford will be furnished
either with the engine Of IS horse
power now in use in more than
100000 cars, or new V-S "econ-
omy" engine, a smaller counter
part Of the regular power plant.
The 1887 Ford cars show visitors
will find present advanced stream
lining and features closely reSem-
bling the 1887 Lincoln Zephyr.
Economies Fuel
The new engine, it was said,
would give fuel economy new to
motoring in the United States, al
though it has been available TO
motorists in Europe, where high
fuel prices and horsepower taxes
have forced the production OF small
engines, for some years. 1t will be
optional in standard body types,
while the de luxe body types Will
be powered only with the 85-horse-
power " engine.
Both standard and de luxe lines
will be available on a single
chassis of 112-inch wheelbase.
Two structural features mark
the new line of cars. One is new
all-steel body with one-piece steel
TOP. as well as steel structure,
panels and floor. The other is a
new braking system.
easy Action" Control
This is mechanical and of 1t
the engineers say:
"It is designed to give
soft easy-actiOn control. The
brakes are actuated through
cable-and- conduit system and
have controlled Self-energizing
action, providing the safety of
steel throughout the entire
mechanism"
A new club coupe is the latest
of IL body types which will be
available.
The so horsepower V-8 engine is
new only to the American conti-
nent. Ford cars built in England
and France for the European mar
ket have been powered with the
engine for more than a year.
Exterior styling of the new line
of cars is entirely new, with much
more emphasis on the streamline
treatment than heretofore. The
frontal appearance is Sharp-noSed
and rakish, the radiator grille be-
ing curved back deeply into the
hood sides.
V-Shape Windshield
Windshields are V-shaped. They
are hinged at the top and can be
opened. AS well as all windows,
they are of safety glass as
standard equipment. Improve

RefinementS in the IS horse

NEW SOIL CONSERVATION
PROGRAM

OF greatest interest to farmers
now, judged by the number of ques-
tions being asked, is the new soil
conservation program. With this
in mind, and trying to clarity some
things that have been said, and
make plain some things that haven't
been said, this article is attempted.
Any farm owner or operator may
participate in the new plan. No
contracts are to be used, and no
farmer can receive payments under
the law if he destroys any food,
fibre, or feed crop in attempting to
qualify for payments. Two general
payments and two special payments
will be made on crops which are
grown in Ohio. In Morgan county
only the two general payments will
apply. The two general payments
are made for increasing the farm
acreage of crops which maintain or
improve soil fertility and for adopt
ing practices which may increase
the fertility of the soil. The larg-
est one of the general payments is
made for soil conserving because the
farmer can not harvest any crop
OLU0T .udu udy OI pasture tIiOm LHS
land during the year for which pay
ments are collected upon that land.
The lesser of the general payments
is made for use of practices which
tend to help the future productivity
of the SOIL 1t is possible to secure
a harvest other than hay or pas
ture from acres on which this pay
ment is collected The rates of pay
ments to be made for increasing
soil conserving crops and for adopt
ing practices which increase soil
fertility also will vary according to
the productivity of the soil devoted
to soil conserving or soil-building.
Ohio farmers who use good bottom
land for growing legumes or grass
es will get higher rates of payments
than the farmer who grows these
upon rough, infertile SOIL
Payments will be made by the
acre, and no farmer can receive
payments unless he actually has
| more acres of legumes or grasses
| on his farm than he had in 1895.
No farmer can be paid for more
acres of soil conserving crops in
1886 than the number of acres
| which equals Is percent of the total
acres of soil-depleting crops which
he had on the farm in 1895. In
