One is a lumber wagon, the other m spring wagon. Both are good for years of work yet, Arthur Martin, bandy Lake, Pa. Not strange for the Studebaker because the hubs are of fine, close grain tough, strong and treated with a secret sealing solution that is weather resisting. Notice the hubs on the next Studebaker you pass on the road —you'll find they are not split or checked like the ordinary wagon. And in these hubs are set the famous Studebaker slope shoulder spokes. The Studebaker Farm Wagon Wheel is best made. We sell the Studebaker because we believe it is the big gest wagon value on the market. R. V. and R. T.
