ceeds old potato shipments. The car­
lot movement of old stock fell off
enough to help the markets some­
what but prices are very unsatis­
factory to holders, and total ship­
ments were in excess of market de­
mand last week.
Dairy products — Pacific coast
butter markets were firm and
steady last week with prices about
one cent above a year ago and less
butter being stored.
The statistical position is strong
on the coast as it is in eastern
markets. However, eastern markets
were reported unsettled and nervous
last week with a slight tendency
toward lower prices. Rather sharp
increases in production are expect­
ed in eastern states during the next
few weeks, although at present re­
ceipts are not as heavy as a year
ago.
Wool and mohair — Country
prices for wool seem at last to
have about caught up with terminal
values, but domestic prices are still
below partiy with foreign markets.
Just what the trend abroad is go­
ing to be is uncertain. Although
the third series London sale un­
covered small declines on some
grades, on the whole it was firm.
There is prospect of increased pro­
duction this year judging from num­
bers of sheep in the world, but
demand is strong. Mohair markets
continue quiet and firm. Strong
markets in Turkey and South Africa
are reported, some mohair being
purchased for shipment to the Unit­
ed States.
Fruits — A heavy drop of pears
and winesap apples is reported from
some localities in Washington.
BIBLE THOUGHT AND PRAYER
If parent» will have their children memo­
rize a Bible »eleclion each week, it will prove
a pricelu» heritage to them in after year».
FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT:—Love
Joy, peace, long suffering, gentle­
ness, goodness, faith, meekness,
temperance; against such there is
no law.—Galatians 5:22, 23.
PRAYER: — O, Lord, our God,
make us temperate in all things,
and enable us to appreciate daily
more and more this fact that when
our lives are surrendered to Thee,
Thou dost make them rich in fruit-
fulness and beautiful with the beau-
ty of holiness,
What encouragement did the Lord
give Asa at the mouth of Azariah
the prophet?—2 Chron. 15:1-7.
Oakland and Pontiac
Sixes Add Line Of
Defense Against Theft
A still higher margin of protec-
tion against car theft is now pro-
vided buyers of Oakland and Pon­
tiac sixes through a new type of
outside door handle which cannot
be forced by the cleverest thief.
The new door handle is so de­
singed that the customary method
of forcing with a wrench or a sec­
tion of iron pipe will not give the
thief entrance to the car. When
such extreme pressure is applied to
the handle it merely turns without
releasing the door catch. A few
seconds of attention at any Oak­
land-Pontiac service station will re­
store the handle uninjured to its
original position.
Thus the Oakland Motor car com­
pany, and the Fisher Body corpora­
tion which builds the Oakland-Pon­
tiac bodies, have raised an almost
impregnable first line of defense.
Should a thief effect entrance
by breaking a window or because
the owner forgot to lock the car,
he still would be confronted by
equally secure second and third
lines of defense. These are provid­
ed by the semi-coincidental lock
AluCil * ocks UM.U iue egiuliun and
the transmission with a turn of
the ignition key. The transmission
is locked from the dash by an in­
genious sliding plunger which moves
inside an armored cable extending
from the ignition key down into
the transmission.
The Oakland and Pontiac sixes,
with their three effective lines of
defense, are said to be as nearly
theft proof as any car in America.

Mixing Industry With Agriculture Means Prosperity for Rural District!
tlian twelve years these have brought
the population ot that city up to
seventeen thousand. Just a tew miles
away, at Elizabethton, they are build­
ing a great rayon plant, the first unit
to cost $5,000,000. The population of
that town is now two thousand, but
it la estimated that this will be multi­
plied by five In less than two years.
It Is stated that the total investment

munity within a period ot five years

and agriculture Is called by some de­
centralization ot Industry.
I would not suggest that manufac­
turing institutions move from the
cities to the small villages, but I do
think it would be better for this coun­
try for future industries to be placed
in these small villages rather than
to be further congested In the great
centers. This would in part also be
a solution of our labor problem. The
bringing of industries to small vil­
lages Increases the market for agri­
cultural products, gives employment
to surplus labor, elevates the stand­
ards of living, increases public reve­
nue, reduces taxes and vastly increases
educational facilities.
