Out of the more than 3,000,000 Ford cars
now in use, about sixty percent have been sold
to fanners. Probably no other one thing has
brought to the farm so much of comfort and
profit as has the Ford car. It has enlarged
the social life, doubled the facilities for market-
ing, brought the town next door to the farm,
multiplied for the farmer the pleasures ofliving.
A family car without an equal in low cost of
operation and maintenance. We solicit your
order for one now because the demand is large
and continually increasing.

It Is this starting ability and

From the proceedings of the van |
ous meetings held to promote plans 1
for Hood prevention and water con |
servation. as reported in Chronicle
.specials, it appears that the work of
reclamation of overllowed lands is to
be combined with two other features
of tlie work. In the Judgment of the
Chronicle such combination is wise in
the highest degree.
Flood prevention, waler conserva
lion and rechumition of fertile land
and its subjection to agricultural pur
poses, are logically eoridated ami can
be and should be carried on together.
As the Chrolili le is advised, work
is to be begun on Trinity River. That
election is Otte very proper to be
made.
Much of the country adjacent to the
Trinity and subject to overflow is
black land prairie, which is found
first on one side and then on the
other.
