“Where Quality Reigns and Prices Are Low**
Pupils vihp have studied at home
the required six weeks and want to
take examinations before the opening
of school; will i^ease report to me at
the school building on Monday morn-
perfect automobile is
yet to be built. No one can say how
close or how far we are from that
coveted result. Extensive research
will reveal this, and this fact is rec-
ognized by the more progressive inan-
ufaeturers who are constantly striv-
ing, to make a better car.
It is a good thing for the industry
as a whole that there is a tendency
to discard the habit of making chang-
es merely for the sake of having a
change. But this extended to the cur-
tailment of real improvements from
year to year would mean but one
thing ultimately—that the automotive
industry would start , slipping back-
ward, for it is a truism that nothing
stands still, we must continue to go
forward or go backward.

SEi-ILD PROVIDE Work I AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
FOR FARMERS IN ! - MAKES GREAT PROGRESS
DROUTH TERRITORY
Progress obtained by work of
hardest kind has brought the automo- I
tire industry within a quarter of a j
century from virtually nothing to the
commanding place in the industrial
life of' our country. Now that first
place lias been attained, there should
be rib tendency to sit back satisfied.
This'attitude must not be assumed if
the industry is-to retain its leading j
position. " '/
The commercial history .of this
country is replete with .instances of
mtinufaoturers who felt that they had i
arrived and could rest content only
later to lie rudely awakened by some
young, vigorous rival who recognized
the principle that to succeed you must
progress. Every year for two de-
cades the leading automobile manu-
facturers have brought out what they
honestly believed was the best car in
its price class, and felt that it could
not be excelled. Yet within twelve
months their own engineers have
proved that the product could be im-
proved. And so it has gone on, each
year seeing better automobiles and so
it will continue as Jdj»g as it is pos-
sible to make improvements.
Years ago the Buick Motor
pany took for its slogan, “When Bet-
ter Automobiles are Built, Buick will
Build Them.” This was not selected
as a vainglorious boast, but was pre-
dicated on the well defined policy
that Buick intends bettering its prod-
uct by the adoptions of such improve-:
ments as continuous experience may
develop.
Maybe the
A large area in i>ne of the most
populous, and usually a highly, pro-
ductive section of Texas, has been un-
fortunate in that kit has . not received
a normal rainfall. It has been sug-
gested, as a relief measure, that
freight rates be reduced on feedstuffs
going into this area, and that credit
unions lie'formed in order that farm-
ers, who need more than the usual
financial assistance, be able to bor-
row money at more favorable rates.
These suggestions, no doubt, are
worthy of earnest consideration, but
there is something else that is need-
ed more than credit. Many farmers
will have idle days, idle teams, and
idle machinery this fall and
and employment for
teams, and machines at fair wages
would bridge them over until another
crop is ready for harvest.
The drouth area, although it covers
thirty or more counties in the east-
central and south-central part of the
state, is only a comparatively small
part of Texas. Yet, it being an im-
portant j>art of Texas, it means a
great deal to the state at large to see
that farmers are given the opportu-
nity to pay expenses through their
own labor without using their credit,
which many of them have. Work at
good wages, when not otherwise busy
on the farm, is a fair substitute for
bumper crops, which are the rule,
rather than the exception, in that part
of Texas.
There is prol>ably not a county or
city in the area mentioned that is not
in need of public improvements. Most
counties have planned a system of
permanent roads and bridges. Near-
ly all the cities and towns are in need
of more paving, better and more sew-
ers, and an extended water system.
Now is a good time to secure these
improvements at a reasonable cost
while it is plenty of home labor avail-
able. While Farm and Ranch has al-
ways been opposed to the promiscuous
issuing of bonds, it believed in good
roads when cost.jof construction is
fair and reasonable, and inasmuch as
most of these counties and cities
have tentative programs and expect
to make these improvements, why not
do it now? The employment of farm-
ers, their teams, and the machinery in
jobs of public improvement will put
money in circulation among the home
folks and remove the necessity for
other relief movements, if any exist.
