FORD RETAIL SALES . ; - G 0 OVER MILLION Show Increase of 105,000 Cars and ~ Trueks Over Previous Year Retail sales of Ford cars trucks and Fordson tractors have exceeded the million mark for the year 1921, according to a statement given out today by the Ford Motor Compahy. : "~ rThe Ford l'a};etm’y and assembly plant product ds figures reached a total of 1,050,74¢ cars, trucks and tractors for the yeay, with retail sales by flealers a»ppro,xim‘afiing 1,092,000 which: in the United States alone surpassed ‘the 1920 retail sgles record by 104,213 Ford cars and trucks. .« . L ~ The Ford Company says the outlook
for 1922 is decidedly optimistic. In fact, concrete evidences alreddy exist in thate ar and truck retail sales for Degember 1921 exceeded 1920. sales by almost 25 per cent, and Fordson tractor retail sales for the samme period show an increase of over 100 per cent ~ for Decembe 1921 as well as an in_crease over the total tractor sales for Alie month of November, -
These facts seem to indicate that not only are the- farmers buying more freely, but that the general public is becoming more responsive and receptive. : Another point brought out by a comparison of production figures for the past two years shows that Ford encloged cars are gaining in popularity as 23 per cent of the 1921 production were Sedans and Coupes as against a total of 18 per cent for the year previcus. . o Recent reductions in Ford car and truck prices brought them to a new low level. The touring car now sells for $348, the runabout for $319 the coupe for $5BO and sedan for $645. The chassis for $285 and th truck for $430 all ¥..0. B. Detroit : ‘ This is the fourth price cut in the past sixteen months. During that time the price of the touring car alone has been cut from $5675 to $348, a reduction of 40 per cent. Reductions on some of the other types have been ever greater. - The Ford company believes that this reduction while not a large one is especially important at this time as it should go a long way toward stablzing market conditions. » : Ford is giving employment at present to approximately 40,000 men in his main plant at Detroit the importance of which is emphasized when consideration is given to the fact that nearly 20 per cent of the city’s population is directly dependent upon the Ford Motor. Company.

- Hills to Lake Koute. ‘ - A delegation of North Manchester residents were before the state highway commission last week in the ‘interest of the “Hills to Lake” road, leading from their town to Wawasee a distance of about 30 miles. Ancther road that ought fo be extended by ‘the state is the one terminating at Huntington. A petition is out for the purpose of having that road extended north to Albion thus affording a connecting linkwith the Lincoln Highway and .connecting the county seat of Noble county with Whitley and Whitley with Huntington as originally contemplated, There are no good railroad facilities between these points and a state highway would be of great service to the people of the three counties, and incidentally it would afford a great many people better traveling facilities to reach the lakes in these counties. b | The Farmer and The Bank & Abe Ackerman a. member of the Straus Brothers Co. of Ligonier in an addess before the Fort Wayne Chambe of Commerce Fiday discussed the relations between the country banker and the farmer. : :
- Mr. Ackerman explained that because of the extraordinary times the farmer is unable today to finance himself. - Among things bringing about the inability of the farmer to finance his business, Mr. Ackerman listed high taxes, high costs of production and low prices for farm products. . “The government has taken care ! ‘he farmer to some extent with lorzi‘me loans through the federal iarn: 1 nm plan,” Mr. Ackerman said, “The £l: t time loans have been harder to ar:2nge and these are what the {amers want. The coOuntry banks can not finance the farmer because it is upon the farme: that the country bank depends for it d.p-sits. The farmer has drawn practicaivy all lligf' money cut of the smaller insiitutions. The country banks have been assisted by the government under the piwer of thei war financing plan &md in this way the banks have in a small way been able to help the famer.”
WHERE FOX SHOWS CUNNING Reynard Always Refuses to Run Faster Than the Dog Will Drive Him, for a Purpose. An Englishman who had once seen an American fox running before a ‘hound wrote that the American fox is much slower than its English cousin. As a matter of fact, the Englishman’s assertion, which by the way appeared in an encyclopaedia, is really a trib-: ute to the ‘superior cunning of the American fox. Reynard, says Mr. 1 Charles D. Stewart in the Atlantic Monthly, could have rug a good deal | faster had he thought it wise to do it. A fox surprised by a hound in a small patch of wood will run across the open at astonishing speed. Then he not only will slow up but may even sit down on some convenient elevation and look back. He keeps his wits about him; he wants to see what is going on. When the hound has struck his stride the fox will soon gauge it and lead him a chase. ‘Anyone 'who sees the chase and knows that the hound is slow becomes an admirer of the witty Reynard and will be likely to say that the fox Is running slowly Just to tease the dog. pdeed. many entertaining writers have said so; but a veteran hunter would not so interpret the action of the fox. He well knows that when a fox gets half a mile or so ahead of him and skulks along at a set distance out of sight, it 1s not doing it to tease him. The fox is not so human as that. The plain fact Is that the fox will not retreat before a dog any faster than the dog drives him. That is because it Is naturally cunning. :
HOW RUSKIN PAINTED PINE English Writer Quick to Perceive the Rugged Beauty of the Northern Forest Monarch, "I?‘he impressions on most people’'s minds must have been received more from pictures than reality, so far as I can judge; so ragged they think the pine; whereas its chief character is green and full roundness. It stands compact, like one of its own cones, slightly curved on its sides, finished and quaint as a carved tree in some Elizabethan garden; and instead of being wild in ‘expression; forms the ‘softest of all forest scenery; for other trees show their trunks and twisting boughs; but the pine, growing either in luxuriant mass or in happy isolation, allows no branch to be seen. Summit behind summit rise its pyramidal ranges, or down to the very grass sweep the circlets of its boughs; so that there is nothing but green cone and green carpet. Nor is it only .Bofter, but in one sense more cheerful than other foliage; for it casts only a pyramidal shadow, Lowland forest arches overhead, and cheques the ground with darkness; but the pine, growing in scattered groups, leaves the glades between emerald bright. —*Modern Painters,” John Ruskin.
Valuable Cow.
Some years ago the last remaining farmer in a prosperous New York suburb bequeathed to his son his only property, 16 acres of land, a ramshackle barn and one cow. The young recipient had no money to develop the land, and was it a loss to know what to do with his cow, whose habits he did not understand. He finally de cided to keep her as a remembrance of his father, and she grazed away contentedly.
Ten years later there came an opportunity to dispose of the land at $l,OOO a lot, or $192,000 for the whole. Based on this valuation, the taxes during the ten years K would have amounted to something: like $15,000, whereas, because of the cow, the property had been given a farm classification, and had been taxed during the period only sl,6oo.—Wall Street Journal.
The Cure. A very little girl sat on the plush couch In the hotel lobby ° violently swinging her feet. Back and forth they swung with vigor. A nice-faced lady sat down next to the child and watched her for a moment. Then she asked very gently why the little girl didn’t put her feet on the floor. With painstaking care ‘and patience the little girl explained by gestures that if she held her feet on the floor she couldn’t sit on the couch, and if she. sat back comfortably her feet didn’t reach the floor. by “Dear me,” sald the lady, very kindly, “what are you going to do?” “Grow,” answered the child nonchalantly, and continue& swinging her feet.—Chicago Journal. :
Saved by ‘Mankind. , The gingko tree, which is a native of China, long ago ceased to exist as a “wild” tree. But it has been cultivated In many countries, and is hardy and persistent wherever it is planted in the temperate zone. The gingko is one of the few specles that have been saved from extinction by man as an offset to the many s‘pecies._ vegetable and animal, that have been exterminated by him.. The gingko flourishes in the northern part of the United States, and is favored for park planting. Because of its unique twolobed leaves it-1s sometimes called the “maidenhair tree.” %

MIRRCRS FROM PLATE GLASS Process ls a Somewhat Complicated One and Calls for a High "_ Degree of Skill. Mirrors are made from plate glass. The proper ingredients are mixed toic:teher and meltéd in large pots. The moleen mass Is then poured out on great iron tables and a heavy rolley flattens out the glafs to the desired thickness. The sheets gre then’ gnnealed, which consists of heating them slowly in varicus chambers kept at different temperatures. 'This is for the purpose of relieving unnatural straln in ‘' the formed glass, which makes it extremely brittle, so that a mere touch is sometimes suflicient to cause the plate to break., After the glass has been cut to the proper size the sheets are polished by rubbing over the surface pads or small disks until the finished produect is about half the thickness of the original. The glass is then ready to be used- for show windows, or can be made into mirrors; o :
The back of the sheet of plate glass is “sllvered.” lln the early processes this did not mean what the word indicates, for no silver was used, but a mixture of tin and mercury. The high eost of mercury and the danger of mercurial poisoning brought about its replacement by silver, which is used in the form of lunar caustic. While silver is an expensive metal, the amount required to coat even a large mirror is so small that the cost is of no moment. P .
UNIVERSAL FOOD IN TROPICS Many Varieties of the Bread Fruit Tree Are Scattered Throughout ; - Southern Lands. : ” It is of Interest to note the flour and biscuit of the tropics. There are a dozen. differcnt bread fruit trees scattered throughout tropical regions. One of the flours, made from the bread fruit tree of tropical America known as ‘the yuka, is a regular article of commerce in the New York market. It is only sold in cartons at. elite groceries, is quite a pure article, of a dingy, grayish-white "color, Jand a slightly alkaline and hardly agreeable taste. In cooking that aitkalinity and acridity are mostly driven out. In its fresh form it is in shape elongated like a giant plantain, and for drying and conversion into flour is cut down before ripening so that it has, llke a green banana, not a semblance of Sweetness. But the same fruilt, allowed to ripen fully, then sun dried, becomes almost as sweet as a Smyrna fig.. This tree-grown cake bread is eaten dried thus, and along with the tree-growing flour forms the chief food for millions in the tropics.—New York Herald. : ‘

Mistletoe Brains. One of the most curious illustrations of the working of intelligence'in plants is' offered by the mistletoe, whose sticky berry, finding lodgment on a tree branch, throws out a tiny rootlet, which tries to pilerce the bark and thus obtain a roothold. If the bark is too ‘tough, the rootlet swings the berry over to a fresh spot, and makes another trial. In this way such a berry has been known to make five jumps in two nights and three days. On one: occasion a number, of them were discovered by ‘a botanist in the act of vainly journeying along a :telegraph wire, trying to find a place to grow.— Milwaukee Sentinel. . ~
