any other implement they might find
convenient. I rescued nine persons
from drowning during that time, and
recovered many dead bodies from the

WEEKLY MARKET NOTES
Raleigh, N. C., Jan. 28. ? During
the months of October and November
?f the past year the State Division of
Markets assisted in marketing 1,675
head of feeder and stocker (beef)
cattle for farmers in Haywood: Bun
? ??
combe, Madison and Yancey counties
reports George R. Ross, chief of that
division.
This was just a demonstration as
to what can be done through group
action," says Mr. Ross, "and plans
are being worked out for a contin
uance of the work during the present
year."
The general adoption of the Fed
eral grades for truck, fruits, and
other general crops by North Carolina
producers is urged by the State Di
vision of Markets. This will mean
more profit because it necessitates a
better grade of product, group action
in selling and the establishment of
brands which will become known in
all the larger markets.
There was :i total of 8,704 carlot
shipments of the various fruits and
vegetables from Eastern North Car
olina during 1 !'1M as compared with
1 in 1 1)-."?. At the same time
1 1 li.-tSS express packages were strip
ped in 15)24 as agai ist 358,1)70 in
1 !)!'."?. There is a steady deirianct for
high grade produce from this sec
tion and there is no reason why East
ern North Carolina products should
not compete ?successfullly with the
western product on the larger mark
ets. o
Apple - growing in Western North
Carolina should be the source, of
large revenue to the growers but
certain conditions. will have to be
overcome an I certain methoxls adop
ted before tin.; can become a reality,
is the opinion of workers :>f the State
Division of Markets. Better advertis
ing are some of the things necessary.

??'ems more cheerful in every way.

Theriew Hupmobile Eight possesses
all the sound qualities of endurance
and reliability which have made
Hupmobile famous the world over.
1 1 pcsoO^jes all the super-abili L:es of
the eight-cylinder principle, and
adds to them superiorities of its own
which unquestionably single it out
as a new leader among American
eights.
TheHupmobile Eight brings within
reach of the average American fam
ily, for the first time, every eight
cylinder quality and advantage for
which buyers in the past willingly
paid hundreds of dollars more.
Only Hupmobile itself could build
such an eight, at a price which for
the first time brings eight-cylinder
motoring to thousands who hereto
fore have enjoyed less than the su
perlative in motor car performance.
For Hupmobile now incorporates
in its Eight a degree of economy and
performing stability never before
associated with the eight as a type.
The Hupmobile Eight
outdistances ail other
eights and ail superior
sixes ?
I n production of power
percubic inch of piston
displacement;
In smoothness so com
plete that not even a
murmur oi "rough
ness ' can bo detected
in the engine's entire
powerandspeed range ;
In compactncss for handling and
parking combined with roominess
for riding comfort;
In a line and better balanced com
bination of speed, lugging power and
rapid acceleration;
In gasoline economy;
In beauty of design, finish and
equipment;
In b aking conf rol.
The advent of the Hupmobile Eight
is a major event in motor car his
tory. A ride in this car ? a drive
behind the wheel ? an understand
ing of the way it is engineered and
built ? will quickly convince you of
that.
