^-y *'■ r: W!T- Quality First ECONOMY IS TEffi WORD AND IT’S DEFINED 3400 R.EM. It’s cheaper in the long run to buy a car like the 3400 r. p. m. Chahners—at $1090 Detroit. A low-priced car often doesn’t pay. Somewhat like the man who wanted to fence his farm and said he wouldn’t spend more than a certain sum of money. ^^Well, for that price I can build you a fence two feet high that will keep the pigs out,” said the hardware man. ^^Now, for just so much more I can build a fence three feet high that will keep the sheep out. And for this amount I can build a 5-foot fence that will keep anything out.” You had better pay a couple of hundred more, and get a regular car. Get a car that fulfills exactly every wish. One that does a good workday on Mon day; that takes you anywhere on Tuesday; runs you200miles on Wednesday; does the errands on Thursday; takes the family to call on Friday; one that’s not only got the 5-year enduran^, but gives you a feeling of pride as well. That, sir, is my definition of Economy. This new 1917 Chalmers with the 3400 r. p. m. engine—the car that increased Chalmers sales 792% in six months—is one that’U. lure you the minute you sit behind the wheel. T. J. HALLIBURTON, Agent, Marion, North Carolina. Ml (L ' Farmers* Institutes Are to be Dis continued. Raleisrl^, Aug. 17.—The State Board of Agriculture, this evening, concluded a two days’ conference for retrenchment, economy and efficiency in the affairs of the de partment, especially to overcome fiQ impending shortage of over $20,- 000 in the receipts for the six months’ budi^et period ending De cember 1, due to falling off in fer tilizer tax receipts on account of the European war. The board adopted recommenda tions of the efficiency committee which included G. S. Mitchell, Clarence Poe, S. P. Latham and A. T. McCallum, with the result that the soil survey in co-operation with the Federal Government is to be discontinued after December 1, the farmers’ institutes are to be dropped and more attention given to the extension work through the A. & M. College and the experi ment station and there is to be a gradual closing down and sale of the seven or eight test farms that the deoartment now operates in different sections of the State at an annual expenditure of $20,000 or more by the department over and above the earnings of the farms themselves. The Blantire farm in Buncombe is to be the first to be sold, but the board definitely adopted a policy to rid itself of the farms on the theory that this method of aiding the progress of farm methods has served its day and that there shall be instead, co-operation with farm life schools, and neighborhood dem onstrations that can be carried into infinitely more communities at far less expense and more effective ac cording to the advocates of this change. The plan is to be done with “commercial farming” as soon as possible and concentrate on neighborhood demonstrations.
