- Popularity Backed by Evidence ,
The Willys Overland Company have delivered over 20,000 Overlands in
the past five month's. This is double the business of any other manufact
urer producing a similar car. They could have .delivered many more had
they been able to produce them. ..
The Overland is outselling its competitors merely because it outclasses
them in every singfe particular. Naturally people buy where they get the
most ear for the least money. " .
The greatest difference in popular priced cars is the difference in price.
.-And this difference is due to the difference in factory and facilities.
They do not claim to be more conscientious builders, but they are more
econoiiucal. It is merely the Overland method a 95 per cent, efficient
factory system making 40,000 cars 3Tearly. . . . "
The Overland costs 30 per cent less than any other similar car made. -
In ten years the world's automobile production increased 8,000 per cent.
But in six years Overland sales have increased nearly , 10,000 per cent.
. This phenomenal popularity is the greatest proof in the world that in the
Overland you get more car for less money that any other manufacturer can
give. 5
For example study the specification given below:
The 1913 sales of Overland cars are already double those of any other
manufacturer producing a similar car. And still the factory is unable to
supply the demand. We have beaten our record for the corresponding
months last year by over 300 per cent.
If we can "beat all the others in sales, surely we must in value.
Investigate.
The sales department of the Willys-Overland Company's records show ,
that to date 65 per cent of all Overland cars have been bought by farmers.
Residents of rural districts have, therefore either bought or contracted for
65,000 Overlands. '
Remember that the farmer is acexjstomed to buying machinery; he
knows when a car is right. He has found the Overland a powerful, sturdy
and dependable car, and what is more he realizes that the purchase of an
Overland gives him more car for less money.
Think that over !
There is over $3,000,000 worth of the most modern automatic machinery
in the Overland factories. Such equipment as this makes it possible for
us to sell the average $1600 car for $1355, delivered in Oregon City. The
Overland factory has one department which does nothing but take out and
sell machines replaced by more improved ones. Let this simple arithmetic
sink in : The installation of new machinery costing $100,000 means $20 per
'car to a maker of 5000 cars to the Willvs-Overland Companv it means
$2.50. -
Think that over and you will realize why the car described below is pos
sible. The Overland factories possess the largest drop forge plant in connec
tion with the industry. That means that they depend on no outside source,
for their drop forgings. ,
When a certain construction needs a drop forging they can go ahead
and make it at minimum cost. Parts which cost others $9 each they
make for $3.
Thus you can see why they can do what others cannot do. The value
described below is the result:
To make enough Overlands to supply the present demand, 8000 skilled
mechanics are working night and day in the great Overland Plants which
cover over 94 acres. . .
And this enormous Overland business-of 40,000 cars grew from an out
put of 400 cars in 1908.
Would our growth have been the biggest if our value was not the great
est? - . .
Right now you are thinking of buying an automobile and now is the
time. "We're selling them."
The past week has been a record breaking one with us.
If you can't call on us, let us call on you and demonstrate this car at
your convenience. Immediate deliveries.

The Portland egg market has now
dropped down to 18 and 18 cents,
and indications are that a further
drop may be expected. Eggs from
this locality are being sold locally at
somewhat higher figures, and many
poultrymen are peddling their eggs
direct to consumers in Portland.
Asparagus is reported to be falling
off in quantity in Portland markets,
though California product is still ar
riving. The shortage is in home
grown stock, which has so far held
the preference on the market.
Cabbage, owing to non-arrival of
shipments expected, is sellingas high
as 3 cents a pound in the metropolis.

COBB GREATER BASE RUN
NER THAN MILAN.
X "Is Clyde Milan a better bfto
runner than Ty Cobb?"
i. This was u question asked of
George Morlarty. the cruck in-
4. tielder of the Tigers, recently.
T "No," Instantly replied George.
"But Milun set u new record
J for base stenliug Inst year." per-
slsted the questioner.
"Admitting that, but Milan to
uot us good or ns dangerous a
man on the base paths ns Cobb,"

manager. "Milan is uuquestlon

T the major leagues, uud be earned

Ion that It Is harder to steal

again. It isn't always good policy
to steal third. A ' single will
score a fast man like Cobb or
Milan, and once such a player
is on second tt is tempting fate
to start to steal third.
"But so far as a base runner
Is concerned Cobb is Milan's su
perior, despite the Washington
star's mark of last year."

The Bookplate.
An ex libris. or bookplate, is a small
piece of paper whereon is printed the
owner's name and pasted on the In
side cover of a book in other words,
it is a printed slip to denote the owner

should have, first of' all. the name,
boldly and plainly printed, and a space
left for the number of volumes con
tained in the library: theu. to make it
more interesting and personal, some
decorative device of the owner s pecnl
iar and individual choice as well as
some favorite motto, if desired. In

How Clouds and Fogs Differ.
Clouds are bodies of moisture evap
orated from the eartli and again par
tially condensed in the upper regions
of the air Kogs differ from clouds
only in one respect they come in con
tact with the surface of the earth,
while clouds are elevated above our
heads. When the surface of the earth
is warmer than the lower air the vapor
of the earth, being condensed by the
chill air. becomes mist or fos But
when the lower air is warmer than
the earth the vapor rises through the
air and becomes cloud. - Fog and mist
differ In this respect that mist is a
fine rain, while fog is vapor uot suf
ficiently eoudensed to allow of its pre
cipitation in drops.
Any time any wnisKey tastes so rough and strong
it makes you- shake your head and say "bur-r"

Never put anything in to your stomach your palate
rejects.
That's why Nature gave you a palate.
