“Farmers whose first farm mort-

IN ANSWER TO A LADY * S LETTER
A lady writes to say that she does not understand why an 8-cylinder
car does not cost more to run than a car with fewer cylinders. She
refers to my statement that our Ford V-8 develops more power on a gallon.
of gas than any car we have made.
The use of 8-cylinders does not mean the addition of two or four
extra fuel consumers. It is not, for example, a 4-cylinder engine
multiplied by two. Our 8-cylinder engine takes the fuel supply of an
ordinary 4—cylinder engine and divides it eight ways. And why?
By reducing four larger explosions into eight smaller ones, we get
engine smoothness and quietness. Eight-cylinders indicate the way the
gas is used, not the amount. It is just the difference between going
upstairs in four long jumps or in eight ordinary steps.
Two things use up gas—bad engine design and useless car weight.
Besides having an engine that gets a high percentage oF power out of the
fuel, the Ford V-8 has a light, strong body and chassis so that no power
is wasted in moving excess weight. *
The only extravagance about the new Ford V—8 engine is in the building
of it. The extravagance is ours—the economy is yours.
The whole question of car economy needs clearing up. An economical
car gives economy all round. Price, operation, upkeep, all play their
part. If what you save on gas you lose elsewhere, that is not economy.
As to upkeep, our dealers say that in recent years the improved
quality of Ford cars has cut down their repair business 50 per cent.
As to price with quality,—judge for yourself.
As to economy, here is the record of a stock car three weeks out of
shop in Oklahoma:
On a run of 10,054 miles at the rate of 1,000 miles a day the Ford
V-8 gave 18.8 miles per gallon of gas. Not a drop of water was added
to the radiator. The oil was changed once in 1,000 miles.
That should answer a lot of questions.

“The number of Land Bank ap

Blood
Sickly, weak, underweight children ax*
usually lacking in rich, red blood. Whoa,
blood becomes poor, a child becomes
rundown. Already weak, he loses appe
tite, which makes him still weaker. Take
no chances on a child gaining strengtia
by himself. Start giving him Grovel
Tasteless Chill Tonic right away. TWa
famous tonic contains both iron and
tasteless quinine. Iron makes for rich,
red blood while quinine tends to purify
the blood. In other words, you get two
effects in Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic.
Put your child on this time-proven
tonic for a few days and see the differ
ence it makes in him. Good appetite, lots-
of pep and energy and red roses in his
cheeks. Children like Grove’s Tasteless
Chill Tonic and take it eagerly. It is abso
lutely harmless and has been a reliable
family medicine for half a century. Get n
