J i Nez Perce Area Has 4,000 Autos, Shoshone 3,290 UvWISTO.W Mil., Jan. 1. The estimated piipiitiitlnu if Nez Perce county Is IIO.UOO and Uio number of atitoinobileM owned uml onemtpn in the euunty In within u few of be ll W 4000, which meant, that the en tire populution could be comfort ultly transported at cue triu.

Hetween these two extremes there la (uite a varia tion In the umount of secretion and the results. -Natural Increase In the sw of the gland occurs at cer tain perlodH of life, most notice, ably ut budding manhood und wo niuntiood.

Tho lodlno ported sales of new ears and In making these sales 740 cars were taken In trade. Conservative ly estimating th average now ear to cost $1000. the sum invested In 1H26 was $1,230,000. To date, 4378 licenses, havo been Issued by the assessor for motor ve hicles, this being tin Increase over last year of 1041, content of the water Is usually low In these regions. It has been found that a certain amount of Iodine In cbenituat com bination In tho gland Is necessary for Its proper function. When tho amount of lodlno ts small, enlarge ment of the thyrtod takes place, apparently from the effort to sup ply this need. f loll re In Its early staged Is pre ventable, the physiologic type by proper amounts of iodine, given under tho direction of a physician; the puthologlc typo by tho ro movnl of tho local Infection pro ducing It, loiter such efforts aro unavail ing, and tho Increase- In slxc and other distressing symptoms pro gress so that Hiirgleul Intervention becomes ikcesaary.

The new two -unit starting and lighting system now advances Dodge Brothers leadership in this important respect still further. There are now no moving starter parts when the car is in motion no starter chain no noise no wear. The new . starter is even more DEPENDABLE than the old, and far simpler and more compact in construction. Many other major improvements have been added during the past twelve months, all vitally affecting performance and in creasing value far beyond the apparent measure of current Dodge Brothers prices.
