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

placing September second only to
April and May of this year and
exceeding the domestic deliveries

for two reasons," said Charles F.
Barth, vice president in charge of

? CHICAGO. 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

modern machines 4inff the work,

disc, a seeder and a drag harrow,

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

: In marketing the grain, good
reads play a big part. Tractors
pull 8 to 16 wagons each string

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
