It can be started lmloorn for an early display and is now sold in paper potH by florists for quick effect. It is. however, so easily raised at home that a fine supply may be had for a dime. There arc- semi-double sorts but the single varieties are the moht popular. There are largo flower ing kinds with iaipoclng truces but they are not as free flowering as the smaller types. The large flowering type is known as the gr::ndf flora section. The smaller flowering and the best for bedding and nmw.es of color Is the nana cotnpacia section. There are also a fringed section and star flow ered section, the petals being curi ously cut and pointed. These two have not the garden value of the other types but are beautiful as variety. A handsome strain is known as IhV Cecily, all the flowers having distinct white eyes. With the annual output of auto I mobiles at the high peaks It Is now j reaching, the matter of service or I cars in owners' iiands is steadily I to be regarded a of more and 'more Importance by manufacture ' ers. ' Chrysler executives, ho have always ranked service as a factor ,of first magnitude in their progress ,!oint out that since the great ma jority of new car sales are now ' made to people already owning ; cars, KadsfU-d owners nre today the best proKpects fur new busi j neriv. I'roper service Is therefore : classed by Chrysler us a sales 1 function and an administrative 'duty as well as a mechanical func ! tion. As a result of this factory pol Mcy, practically all Chrysler dis tributors are operating their ser i vice departments under a plan de ! vised by the company and known jaa the Chrysler standardized main tenance system. A natural supple f ment of the company's famous . standardized quality manufactur ing policy, the standardized main tenance system was evolved by a I series of exhaustive studies of ( every repair and service operation ;on a Chrysler car. I "This new plan." explains J. V. Kraser, Chrysler sales manager, "is ;un improved flat rate system, en abling the car owner to have his car trouble diagnosed and to know in advance exactly the nature, ex tent and coat of the work neces sary to remedy it. "Furthermore Chrysler service stations are supplied ut frequent intervals with definite instructions on the proper procedure for all Chrysler maintenance and repair operations. They are thus enabled to- perform these operations with a greater degree of accuracy and in much less time than is poKslbe where this Information In not avalable."

The measure Is known ns' the Newton bill tH. H. SS27) and authorizes an' amendment to the Webb-romerene export act, which in effect will permit the rubber and automobile manufacturers of the country to pool their purchas ing powers and purchase as one concern their annual requirements of 9U0. 000.000 pounds, of crude rubber. Its far reaching effect is called to the attention of the 23.000,000 motorists of the country by the American Motorists' association which, with other national organi zations, is sponsoring the measure. The association points out that on a basis of 900.ii10.000 pounds of crude rubber purchased each year, that even a one cent raise in price costs the manufacturer 9,000.000 which of course the ultimate con sumer must eventually pay.
