LOW SYRUP PRICES - SPUR MOOlISHINING Tampa, Fla., Jan. 23.-The low price for cane syrup and the over:pro duction of sugar cane and sorghum is responsible for a boom in the moon shine liquor industry in several bec tions of Florida, according to A. L. Allen, Federal Prohibition Director for this State, in a statement Vioday. "Last year our farm crops were small, except the cane crop, which was larger than usual," said Mr. Al ten. "One year ago this month cane syrup was selling. at) $1.50, a gallon: This year, 4ith -double the' crop eo ple in West Florida have to? me, they are offered only 35 and 40 cents a gallon for their syrup. "Many of these people' in those cir cumstanees have found the partig of the ways and have sold their syrup to a bootlegger neighbor or have used it themselves in making moonshine. Only three gallons of syrup are neces sary to make a quart of liquor. The market value of the syrup is $1.05 to $1.20 while the quart of moonshine will sell for $5 to $6."

CHIROPRACTIC (The Cure That Lasts) Offiee hours in Manning: 8 to 5 p. in., Muonday, Wednesday Friday at home of MsJanie I. iIorton,~ DR. A. D. PLOWDENl, D. C., Ph. C.

Retail sales of Ford-cars, trucks and Fordson tractors have again ex ceeded the, million' mark for the year 1921, according to a statement given out today by: the Ford Motor Com pany. . The Ford' factory and assembly plan production. figures reached a jo tal of 1,000,740 car's trucks and trac tors for the year, with retail sales by iealera approximating 1,093,000, which- in the United States alone sur -passed the 1P20 retail sales record by 10?,218 ford cars and trucks. The Ford Company says' the outlook for 1922 is decidedly optimistic. In fact 'concrete evidences already 'exist in that car and truck retail sales for December 1921 exceeded December 1920 sales by almost 25 per 'cent, and Fordson tractor retail sales 'for the same. periods show an increase -of over 100 per cent for December 1921, as well as an increase over the total tractor sales for the month of Novem ber. These facts seem to indicate that not only are the farmers buying more freely, but that the general public is becoming more responsive and recep tive. Another point brought out by a comparison of production figures for the past two years shows that Ford enclosed cars are gaining in popular ity,-as 23 per cent of the 1921 produc tion were Sedans and Coupes as against a total of 18 per cent for the year previous. Recent reductions in Ford car and truck prices brought them to a new ,Tow level. The Touring car now sells for $348, the Runabout for $319, the Coupe for $580, the Sedan for $645, the Chassis for $285, and the Truck for $430, all f. o. b. Detroit. This is the fourth price cut in the past sixteen months. During that time the price of the Touring Car alone has been tut from $575 'to $3481 a reduction of 40 per cent. Re ductions on some of the other types have been even greater. The Ford Company believes that this reduction, while not, a large one, is especially important at this time as it should go a long way toward stabilizing market conditions. Ford is giving employment at pre sent to approximately 40,000 men in his main plant at Detroit, the impor tance of which is emphasized when consideration is given to the e fact that nearly 20 per cent of the city's population is directly dependent upon the Ford Motor Company.-Adv.
