The conmpany's adoption of the policy of not bringing 'out new yearly models has stabilized the value of Studebaker cars. The of At 3 o'clock on the afternoon ofrSeptember 28, shipment of mo tor cars from the Studebaker fac tories passed the entire shipments made by Studebaker in the year of 1924. This record sale was made pos sible by three factors of manufac ture which have kept the factories running at capacity and overtime during the entire summer through September and into October. The three factors,' as set forth by officials of the corporation. company has been building a large volume of reserve mileage into its cars, yet this vas wasted each year when new models de preciated the existing cars by 40 per cent. The purchase of a car n'Jw becomes a permanent invest ment in transportation not mere ly an annual outlay for style. With three full months to go, Studehaker's 1925 sales are well DETROIT, Mich.. Oct. 17. The Chevrolet Motor company built 55,865 motor cars and trucks dur ing September, a new record for that month and only 378 fewer than the highest production month in the history of the company. Ordinarily sales and consequent ly production are expected to de crease during the latter part of the year. However, the demand for Chevrolet cars which has held production at high figures throughout the year continues un diminished. As a result the sched ule for the present month con templates the building of more than 54.500 cars and trucks. August deliveries to dealers in the United States alone were 41, 500, an August record. This fig ure is exclusive of the thousands of cars shipped to foreign coun tries. During September deliv eries in the United States in creased to approximately 4 4,500, placing September second only to April and May of this year and exceeding the domestic deliveries for June, July and August respec tively. "I am pi"oud of these records for two reasons," said Charles F. Barth, vice president in charge of production. "My first reason is that since March the Chevrolet production has remained consistently at 50, 000 or more without the usual seasonable fluctuations. This in dicates that the automobile indus try la becoming stabilized upon a regular year-round demand.

A cut of man's la bor in the wheat fields from 130 million days to 7 'million days has taken place when!, the last wheat crop of this country is compared with the same wheat harvest had it been produced before the day of the reaper, according the Research Department of the .National Asso ciation of Farm Equipment Manu facturers. , ! Here are scenes from the fa mous ranch operated by Thomas D. Campbell of Hardin, Montana. It is the greatest! wheat farm in the world 110,000 acres , under cultivation with 9Q.000 acres more in reserve for future breaking:. One of his crops passed the 500,1-000-busheI mark, 250 men and modern machines 4inff the work, Each man is equipped to earn the. $250 paid in cash and board with a bonus at thse end of the sea con. . A tractor polls a plow, a disc, a seeder and a drag harrow, breaking; the land and seeding it at one operation that covers 30 acres a day with but Z men on the operation. Another i operation .used hook ups 60 feet of drills behind a trac tor, 2 men again handling- the op eration that seeds 150 acres a day. A discing hookup covers a 50-foot strip and 120 acres a day with two men. : ' . With 14 tractors following each other, 640 acres were plowed and packed each day without a , stop for mechanical trouble, according to Mr. Campbell recently. The harvesting of' the wheat is done by two ways, the combine thresh er-header averaging 50" acres a day with 3 men involved, and the binder operation with each trac tor pulling six 8-foot binders at a speed of 3 miles per hour and cov ering 120 acres a day. The shock leader is used when the binders are operated, these doing the work, of 10 men and 20 horses. By harvesting flax by combine harvesters . from . windrows, .the cost is reduced from 18 to 6 cents a bushel. t : In marketing the grain, good reads play a big part. Tractors pull 8 to 16 wagons each string carrying 1,000 or 2,000 bushels of wheat to ' the elevator 40 miles away.

Unceasing demand for cars from the Chevrolet deal ers made it necessary early In Sep tember to increase the September production schedule nearly 7, Otto, th new schedule calling for 53,163 cars and trucks. A production in crease of that magnitude is a se vere test of any manufacturing or ganization. The sales department would have desired us to increase workers in the Chevrolet factories, most of them veterans who are proud of their Jobs and proud of their product, responded to a man. They came through with the rec ord September production o 55. S65 which was 2j,700 more cars than we had asked for even under the revised schedile."
