SETBACK GIVEN TO PRICES ON WHEAT

CHICAGO. June 1 Something of a setback was given to wheat prices to Say by news of the closing of the port of New York to all outgoing vessels. Bearish crop estimates tended also to handicap holders. At first the market had displayed firmness owing to strength of coarse grains. Opening prices, which varied from unchanged figures to 1 cent higher, were followed by a break to well below yesterday's finish all around, and a subsequent rally failed to hold. Continued wet weather lifted the corn market. Growth conditions were said to call instead for warmth and sunshine. After opening V to 1 higher, prices scored decided further gains, but lost much of the advance when wheat turned down grade. Oats followed wheat rather than corn. Scantiness of offerings though prevented any radical down turn. Weakness of lard acted as a weight on provisions. Nevertheless shorts ia ribs showed a disposition to cover owing to higher quotations on hogs.

Nothing in the world succeeds like success. This is more true of the Saxon automobile than any car manufactured today. The Saxon Motor Car Corporation organized three year age is now the third largest producers of automobiles in the world. The history of the Saxon reads like fiction no car on the market has grown as fast in popularity. To see the Saxon and ride In it is proof of this. Its performance and the pride of its owners is what is selling the Saxon. Men who know and understand the construction of an automobile are selecting the Saxon in preference to other makes. The features on the Saxon 6uch as the Continental Motor. Timkin bearings and axles, Stromberg carbruetor, full cantilever springs, Wagner starting and lighting system, Remy ignition, its luxurious upholstering, its many fine exclusive features so different from cars at the price the Saxon sells for it what is making the car popular with the. buying public. , M Sit in the back seat and . stretch your legs to their fullest extent. Note the comfortable riding qualities

given by the full cantilever springs as they cradle you over the roughest of roads. Saxon rear seat is big and roomy and comfortable for three people. Then take the wheel and put the car through its "stunts." Throttle the motor down to two or three miles an hour on high and note the even, smooth power-flow." Then jump the accelerator to its -extreme upper pitch and feel the clean pick-up to 40 miles an hour in a minute and a half. The beauty of the Saxon "Six" motor should be just beginning to make its impression. No bucking, no jerking just the even, quiet power-flow of tremendous reserve strength. And to know just

how much reserve strength, send Saxon "Six" against the most stubborn hill in your community, the "stumper." You will marvel at the manner in which this is overcome. And above all, you will remark on the splendid riding comfort of the front seat. We will venture to say there is not a front seat on any car made that rides any easier than that of Saxon "Six." We do believe that the features alone should sell Saxon "Six." These are the factors which determine your possession as an object of pride and satisfaction. These are the factors which will give the day in and day out serviceability, which any owner has a right to expect, and which we demand our cars give.

But the right component parts properly assembled, also give the satisfactory demonstration. Hence, we are only too glad to submit Saxon "Six" to any reasonable test, and leave this particular bit of performance with the security of thought that this can be attained, not only today or tomorrow, but each day and every day, because Saxon cars are built right of the right material. There are three models of the Saxon "Six." The chummy 4-passenger is

a beauty and is creating much comment. The 5-passenger touring car is a roomy, comfortable car. Herewith is seen a cut of same.

The Saxon "Six" sedan, as it stands ready for delivery, is beautifully appointed and finished. It is a distinct tribute to the art of our designers. No costly enclosed car surpasses it in detail and quality of workmanship. It-is easy to drive and easy to ride in. There is no more comfortable conveyance than Saxon "Six" sedan. The prospective buyer must if he desires a car that is built right, and wants the most for his money, buy a Saxon. Automobile buyers are awaking up to the fact that no car offers more regardless of price and that it is the only car sold for less than $1,000 which contains all of the necessary established features of cars that formerly sold at $2,000 to $3,000. Purchasers that desire a demonstration and that are unaware of the Saxon's superior qualities are requested to phone . 2328 or to call at the National Garage or on any of its many salesmen and dealers in Eastern Indiana.
