Governor Allen, of Kansas, iS not
in sympathy with the effort of South
ern cotton growers to make a living
profit oft their cotton, characterizing
the acreage reduction movement as
“trading upon the misery of the
world.” The governor calls atten
tion to the fact that Kansas farmers
are doing everything in their power
to increase the yield of wheat, but
neglects to mention the fact that the
United States Government is to pay
them a billion dollars more than the
market price thereof, this being the
difference between the present mar
ket price and that fixed by the Gov
ernment last Fall in order to encour
age a big production. With the same
incentive, the cotton farmer would do
everything in his power to increase
the yield of the fleecy staple.
That the movement is creating ap
prehension among the spinners and
others of the North is evidenced by
the amount of spaca devoted to it in
the Northern papers. Under the cap
tion, “The South on a Cotton Strike,”
The Literary Digest devoted more
than a p-'gf of its valuable space to a
review of editorial opinion. The con
sensus of oninion outside of the South
is that the Southern farmer is acting
nn a most selfish roa.iner in reducing
his acreage in order to make a fair
profit, the fact that the present large
eurplus ia what ia keeping the price
down being overlooked. The growing
apprehension should be en encour-

-Super-Six leadership wus first established on the speed-
f way. There it shoived such performance and endui'ance
as immediately placed it in the front as the greatest stock
car that had ever attempted such feats.
But present Hudson leadership does not rest upon what
•* it has done in establishing the best time for one hour, or
for one hundred miles, or for its twenty-four hour perfor
mance, or for having made tha best time in the greatest
• hill climb that was ever held, when it climbed to the top
o.f Pike’s Peak. The Super-Six is not distinguished be
cause of any one not^le performance, although it holds
more such records than any other car.
The greatest, proof of Hudson leadership is shown by
the way in which 60,000 Super-Six owners are satisfied
with their cars. ^ — x • £*■£$

Hudson body designs too are the standard of motordom.
EVeryone in touch with motor car development knows
how the Sedan, the Touring Limousine, the Speedster, the
Cabriolet, the Limousine and the Town Car, models that
first appeared on the Super-Six chassis, have served as
patterns for other Cars. Hudson owners always get the
advance models. A & & j • -
Full production of Hudsons will not be reached before
June. Until then buyers of open models will have to sup
ply their wants from the limited-stocks of those few deal
ers who may have such cars. *
In almost every locality the Hudson Super-Six is not
only the largest in number among fine cars, it is regarded ,
Aft. tbe fine our. In many sections it is the only fine car
,to be found.

year than ever.
