TEXAS BUYERS CANCEL
ORDERS FOR POTATOES
Orders for potatoes are being can
celled by Texas buyers and local buy
ers are wondering where they are at.
While speculators are said to be nom
inally quoting extra choice potatoes
as high as $1.40, and even $1.50 at
Willamette valley stations, this price
is not obtainable for shipment else
where. . Even those who are naming
these prices are unable to say why
they are doing it.
Growers are thoroughly convinced
at this time that they are going to
get 2c a pound for their potatoes and
they are not willing to talk business
under that figure.
During the past 24 hours orders for
at least seven carloads of potatoes
were cancelled here by Texas buyers
because they said that they were
able to purchase stocks in California
at 10c less than they had offered and
paid local parties.
This would give still another twist
to the situation for quotations are ac
tually higher in the south, although it
is quite possible that they are naming
high figures simply as a blind to in
duce tighter holding here, while in
reality they may be selling for less
money. The purchase of a carload
or two of potatoes in a district at a
higher price is always sufficient to
cause growers to hold for this figure
and the extra amount is not great if
speculators have much stock on hand
to unload.

E. M. F. "30" Touring Car, $1,100. .
Ainid the noise of much automobile advertising, we will speak quietly.
We have something to say. "We want men who think to listen.
t "
This is our story: We are building E-M-F "30" and Flanders "20"
automobiles building 50,000 of them this year and selling them to men
of moderate means and also of large means, but all alike in one particu
lar. They investigate, criticize, make comparisons and prove the value of
whattheybuy. They think.
. Years of honest dealing and skillful manufacture have given the name
Studebaker a great prestige. It stands, as a fine man does, for honor and
square dealing. It has become a principle. Into every E-M-F "30" or
Flanders "20" automobile built goes the reputation and integrity of that
name and what it stands for. , "
We Build for yots.
Think a minute. Our cars are built with a single purpose. To furnish
the most of automobile value in design. quality and everyday good service for
the least of cost. We are not catering to those few who buy where they can
spend the most money, nor to any indiscriminate purchaser. But we build
for you, Mr. X (let us have your name and we will use it), who knows the
worth of a dollar and who are looking for the best value, dollar given for
dollar spent, on the market.
Yes, we could make cars cheaper. Others whose resources are smaller
do so. We could make their cars and sell them for less money than they
do. But what kind of a car would we offer to you then? A light fragile
car to spin merrily for a time and then develop a spasm of weaknesses and
lead an invalid existence until discarded.
To that we will not turn our hand. Our cars are Studebaker cars.
Materials which give long life
In E-M-F "30" and Flanders "20" automobiles go the highest quality
steels and other materials it is possible to buy. The big mills make steel
for us in accordance with our secret f orcnulas. We build practically every
part of the cars in our own plants. For instance, there are 252 drop f org
ings in every E-M-F "30," 226 in every Flanders "20.". You will appre
ciate what that means for strength. Incidentally, it means that we have our
own forge plant it's a wonder, too-or we couldn't afford to do it. Simi
larly, our foundry, our body plants, our steel stamping plant, our extensive
laboratories all co-operate to give us heavy manufacturing advantages and
economies.
- Put Studebaker honor and square dealing into the best automobile fac
tories in the world and what must the product be? Absolutely beyond
question the best automobile values you can buy. That's what we sell you
when you buy an E-M-F "30 "or Flanders "20." "
Records Prove It
During the past summer stock Flanders "20" cars won :
1 World's Speedway Records 1-20 miles;
2 Most important hill .climbs in the country in record-breaking
time.
3 The severest reliability runs held in the United States. Further
a stock Flanders "20" did 1280 miles pioneering between Seat
tle, Wash., and Hazelton, B. C, over trails where in many places
neither vehicle nor horse had been. It is a record. No other car
last year approached it. ..---.-- -
The E-M-F "30" won 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in the Savannah Tiede
man Trophy race, the only event in which we entered the car. If you are
interested in further details, ask any man who has driven an E-M-F "30"
or knows the car.
A story of honest and square dealing. This is the Studebaker story.
It's all true. '.
