FIRM REPORTS HUGE INCREASE IN AUTO SALES 250 Per Cent Growth for Period Experienced by Warnock Agency. Increase of more than 250 per cent in sale of new Ford cars the first two months of 1930, compared witli the same period in 1929, was reported today by C. O. Wamock president of C. O, Warnock Company, 813-23 East Washington street, authorized Ford dealer. During the first two months this year the firm sold new cars totaling $95,809, and used cars totaling $lO,426, while January and February, 1929, total sales were only $41,051. “The slight depression felt in some lines as a result of the recent stock market slump has not affected ! sale of Ford cars in the least,” Mr. Wamock said. “Superior quality | and unequalled value of the new | Ford not only have prevented any I sales slump but have increased • sales.” Branch Opened ! The Warnock Company recently i opened another used car store at j 2714 East Washington street, with Bill Williams, well known locally in I automobile circles, as manager. i Since its opening the store has enjoyed a tremendous success, due to its convenient location, ample parking facilities, together with the i company’s standard thirty-day war- | ranty, thorough reconditioning and i fair prices on used cars. The large, courteous sales staff of ; the company has been encouraged | greatly by the splendid reception ! accorded the new Ford car, accord- ; ing to P. M. Vandivier, new car sales manager. Mechanics Trained “More and more motorists, who formerly drove higher-priced cars, are realizing that with the addition of a few inexpensive accessories, j such as trunks and trunk racks, they j can have the same luxury and com- i fort with a Ford as they obtained j previously in more expensive cars,” j Vandivier said. Jack Sherry, service department manager, reports the service department is receiving more and more business from Ford owners because of its completely equipped service shop and competent workmen, all of them thoroughly trained in the Ford service school. Fertilizer Sold Another product of the Ford company, handled by the Warnock firm, is Ford ammonium sulphate, widely used by farmers, gardeners and others because of its high fertilizing qualities, lower cost and superior results. This product easily is applied evenly to the soil and, once applied, quickly becomes “available” as plant food. The Ford ammonium sulphate has been used for the past several years very successfully by landscapers for private lawns, golf courses and parks. Within a few days after it has been applied, the lawn or shrubs will show new life \ and more beautiful color.
