Jasper County Democrat, Volume 18, Number 11, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 15 May 1915 — Nearly 70 Fords Sold by W. I. Hoover Since August 1. [ARTICLE]
Nearly 70 Fords Sold by W. I. Hoover Since August 1.
Ex-sheriff w. I. Hoover, the local Ford agent, has sold nearly 70 Ford automobiles since August 1 of last year, and if he can get the cars his sales for the year ending August 1 of this year, will probably reach 100. At present the factory is unable to turn out cars fast enough to supply the demand, and Mr. Hoover’s two carloads received Monday were practically all taken, or sold,, rather, before they arrived. He has orders in for more but does not know how soon they will reach here. Among those who got cars out of his last shipment are: County Auditor J. P. Hammond, J. C. Borntrager, John Ramp, The Main Garage, A. O. Moore, Harvey Lowman, Frank Kanne, Hamilton & Kellner, George Salrin of Walker tp., Ed Cook of Hanging Grove tp., and George Caster of Milroy.
