Back of this season's new Over
land Big Fours and Light Sixes
are a direct line of nine preced
ing models from which they
were developed.
They directly continue the line of
models that made the Overland
name stand in the public mind
for integrity of value.
Overland policy has steadfastly
sustained that integrity of value
in the car throughout it9 entire
service in the hands of owners.
Over three hundred thousand of
these cars are now in use and
the helpful suggestions of their
owners and of the more than
four thousand dealer and factory-branch
organizations that
sold and served them, are largely
responsible for the balanced
greatness of this season's Big
ours and Light sixes
Their new beauty, their perfected
easy riding qualities, their
proven sturdiness and mechan
ical . excellence, their admitted
tire, fuel and oil economy make
them worthy of the confidence
we enjoy, that they will , still
further enhance Overland pres
tige. They embody the wisdom of the
unmatched Overland experience
in building cars of this type.
They are dominant values, cars of
proven dependability and ster
ling worth.
As long as we have them for de
livery before May 1st, the prices
are $850 for the Big Four, $985
for the Light Six thereafter
$895 and $1025.
nnA ohnrt.knm hlnnd see my old
friend, W. W. Green, of Union, and
several other breeders mat iocbwju m
thin section of the country now. There
is getting- to bo quite a science in
handling and preparing- the grass
steer (as we will call him) for market
. ... . . i.
that is to get tho Deal results, awui
as much so as there are in preparing
the steer going in the feed lot to be
finished on pulp nay or grain.
The main thing to keep in mind is
to get him on the market as early
in tho summer as possible. Of course
this means more feed through the win
ter and more food means more cost,
but it will pay. Start your steer on
grass with as much flesh as you can
get on him, and if possible put him in
k. Jionlr in thn mnnt.h of July Or not
later than the first to the 15th of
Aucniat nnH vnu will USUallV firet $1.50
to $2.00 per cwt. more for him than
you will 60 or 90 days later.
; Just for an illustration I have here
a picture of a bunch of cattle I sold
last June that were snipped to rumsas
City by tne veteran snipper ana your
neighbor, Frank Oxmaro of Durkee,
Oregon. I sold these steers for $10.50
per cwt. which up to that time and is
yet the highest price on record ever
paid for a bunch of grass cattle in the
United States. These same cattle 60
Aavn lnpr would not have brousrht
over nine cents, which means on a
bunch of 1200 pound steers a airrer
ence of around $20 per head at least
So by putting $5 to $10 per head in
feed in Mr. Steer is a pretty good in
vestment and I think if you follow
