: * S | ®UGGIES | HARNESS Paid for a Studebaker wasfon ■ IN 1876 Mr. R. F. Dewey of Millersburg, Ind., bought a Studebaker farm wagon for $lO5. Dividing $lO5 by 38 years it I will be seen that Mr. Dewey’s Studebaker cost him—to date—s 2.77 a year. i> ■ and, as the wagon is still giving good service, every additional year that Mr. Dewey uses his wagon still further reduces the cost per year. You can’t beat this for an investment. We carry a line of Studebaker wagons just as strongly made, just as reliable, as the Studebaker wagon Mr. Dewey bought 38 years ago. Come in and look them over. We will demonstrate to you that a Studebaker wagon is an investment that pays every time. • >
