University Experts Say Ohio Land Value Dropping (By United Press) COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 11. The value of farm lands in Ohio is slowly decreasing according to a statement issued by rural economists ' of the Ohio State university. The decline is due to deflation of bloated prices prevalent during war time, the statement said. Farm land which was f60 an acre in 1913 and which rose to $83 an acre in 1920 now can be purchased for about $66 an acre. The break in Ohio land prices ' probably is an excellent thing for Ohio agriculture as speculative prices on farm property generally mean a shifting of the rural population, the statement said. -

MEET US AT THE FAIR There Is No Car that Can Take 'the Place of a FORD Above all, it is the car of dependability the Ford engine has power and the car itself is built to give service. The cost price of the Ford is so low that everybody can afford to buy and the cost of running a Ford is so little that you never feel what it coUs. We make it easy for you to buy and own a Ford. Let us tell you 1 Just how easy.

Here's a Thought for Business Men . If your salesmen spend unproductive time going from prospect to prospect, because of slow transportation, it is money lost. Slow transportation robs them of part of their time time that might just as well be turned into sales. A Ford Runabout furnishes quick transportation at the lowest possible cost. By equipping your salesmen with Ford cars, you will enable them to devote more energy to selling goods.

The Ford is a Combination Car Can yon think of any other passenger car that offers you so many advantages as the Ford Sedan? It is a car for everybody, everywhere. Thebusiness man finds it an asset in ihis business; the farmer has no end of uses for it, and when iti is done with business, it does duty for the whole family. We will round out this service in the car itself by keeping your Ford in good condition. We sell Genuine Ford Parts and our fully equipped repair shop handles repairs promptly and well. Let us come and demonstrate. Don't put off placing your-order.
