Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 17, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 January 1915 — The Ford as “Salesman’s Equipment”. [ARTICLE]

The Ford as “Salesman’s Equipment”.

Each month’s sales reports show an enormous increase in the use of Ford cars by the large manufacturing and distributing houses of the country. Their utility for “salesman’s equipment” is becoming more firmly and generally established as an" economic principle. The Fordcost of less than two cents per mile is in itself a convincing argument. In the last few months 598 Fords have been sold in Seattle. - Of these, 240 Fords, or about 40 per cent of the total number sold, were bought for merely commercial purposes.
