Already In tho first seven ujoutiy: of this year production of car and truckK is tig per cent ahead OP the correspond I nj; months of 1922 and the let up in July building has been only 14 per cent compared with June. , Mb? a has been (ho 1923 produc tion increase there Is no sign of any! alow down In' 1924 of this year's enormously expanded output. On ! the contrary, If one can place any: relinnce on the glories that come ' from the eust, 1924 production will j be speeded up to even bigger gains! over 1923 than were scored In 19-3 over 1922. I'laii to Double Output Rumor has It that Ford plans an output of 10.0(10 cars a day, Chev rolet ti production of 500,000 lor the first eight months, and tho Willys- Overland will jump to 250,000, of which around 150,000 will be Over-landf. Optimists point to this year'B enor mous fncreasi-s In sales and the shortage of pot.ular models through mo:;! of the selling season by way of proof that this year's supply was really below the demand and in Jus tification of even greater buying ex pectations for next year. nr Fovr'H lllir itce This year's California rare among "the big four" in the low price class Ford, Chevrolet.

BURR & SONS, Studebaker Deslers Roscburg, Oregon' IS A STUDEBAKER YEAR RED BIRD FLIES AT MM A bird-like appetite for fuel la be- comiiur a characteristic feature of: tho new Overland Red Ilird. In the various economy tests, to which It ' has been put all over the country I this bird of a car has Invariably! done Its flying on a gasoline con sumption that has proved surprising to those skeptics who scoff at rec ords. After taking a rise out of compe tition down in San Antonio, Texas whero a fifty dollar bet prompted a contest In which the Ked Ilird came through with wings spread for over thirty miles to the gallon, A. G. Whlto of Toledo, Illinois, reports that he drove his Oakland Red Ilird from the Wlllvs-Overland fnctnrr to his home town, a distance of 3!u! miles on 12 gallons of gasoline, mak ing an avorace of S:i miles to the gallon. Several years aso Mr. White had the misforluno to lose both of hlii arms In a corn shredding ma chine and most pcudLj, would reward, this stroke of bad luck as an el fact ual bar to driving a car. ; ... Not so with Mr. White, however, who takes as much and probably more pleasure out of motoring than the uverage man who has the free tiKf of both rrnis. Mr. White Is an expert driver and does everything that anyone else can do with a car, having owned ami operated an Over land lor a number of years. His re cent long drive from Toledo, Ohio, to Toledo, Illinois, stands. out as one of the most remarkable achieve ments and unique records yet to bo heard of. r 0 To It electrically, with a Thor wash er. $10 down.
