Housewives have learned they KNOW this is true where bakings are con cerned. Self rising flours are classed as substitutes for plain flour and good baking powder. The use of these special mixtures is very liable I to result in false econ- omy, failures and waste on bake day. Remember there is a big difference, in many ways, between biscuits and other bakings made from these so-called self-rising flours and those made from good plain flour and a de pendable leavener. Try the experiment—make a baking from each — convince yourself. You will find the baking made from flour and baking powder far more attractive in appearance. It will raise higher retain its full food value and taste better. For best results, do not fail to use Calu met, the Economy Baking Powder, and a reliable brand of plain flour. Just think of it—the sale of Calumet is 2L> times as much as that of any other brand. It contains only such ingredients as have been officially approved by the United States Food Authorities.

How We Spend Your Money in building Studebaker cars Why people buy 150,000 yearly IT is true that we spend lavishly on Studebaker cars. But it’s all to your advantage. It is by that spending that we give you the greatest value in the fine-car field. We offer prices no one matches on any comparable cars. That lavish spending led people last year to pay $200,000,000 for Studebaker cars. And that volume brings our prices down to where they are. $50,000,000 in plants Studebaker assets are $90,000,000. In modern plants and equipment we have $50,000,000. Seventy per cent of that amount was spent in the past seven years. So it represents the last word in equipment. $8,000,000 in drop forge plants, so every vital part is made to Studebaker standards. $10,000,000 in body plants, so Studebaker ideals may be shown in every body. All that is staked in a permanent way on satis fying fine-car buyers bet ter than our rivals. IVhat extras cost Lack of vibration is a famous Studebaker fea ture. We get that by ma chining crank shafts as they were in Liberty Air plane Motors. That extra cost is over $600,000 yearly. Matchless endurance is another famous feature. One Studebaker Six, still in active use, has run 475,000 miles since 1918. We get that through costly steels. On some we pay 15% bonus to maker s to get formulas exact. Beauty of finish is another su premacy. But that finish requires many operations, including 15 coats of paint and varnish. Our real leather cushions cost $25 per car over imitation leather. Every Studebaker car is Timken equipped. The Special-Six and the Big-Six have more Timken bearings than any car selling under $5,600 in L I G H T - SIX SPECIAL. SIX BIG . SIX 5-Pass. 112” W. B. 40 H.

It has made this concern the largest builder of quality cars in the world. You can find nothing in cars at SI,OOO or over to compare with Studebaker values. Studebaker sales have almost trebled in the past three years. The growing demand is the sensation of Motordom. For 72 years the name Studebaker has stood for quality and class. But never so much as today. Then don’t buy a car at SI,OOO or over without learning what we offer. of Methods and Standards. It is enormously expensive. Our constant improvements are due to ceaseless research. 125 ex perts devote their time to the study of betterments. They make 500,000 tests per year. That reliability is due to 12,000 inspections of the material and work manship in each Studebaker car be fore it leaves the factory. This re quires 1,000 inspectors. Being generous with men We pay maximum wages—at least as much as anyone else will pay. College street. Mrs. W. T. Lane has returned from Shellman, where she was the guests of her mother, Mrs. R.

After five years of service those checks amount to 10% of their wages. We spend $2,000,000 yearly on our co-operative work for men. Every year we give factory em ployes one week’s vacation with pay. That cost us $225,000 last year. We sell them stock on attractive terms. We retire old employes on pensions. All this to keep men happy, to foster morale, and to keep men with us when they*. develop ———— efficiency. Not extravagance Do such things seem extravagant? They are not. All those extra dol lars save more dollars for our buyers. They result in the cars you see, in the prices and values we offer. Nothing else in the field can com pare. Those values have re sulted in a demand for 150,000 cars per year. That volume cuts our costs in two, as compared with limited production. The cause of over prices under-values is not lavish expenditure, It is Limited production, Heavy overhead, - Out-of-date machinery, Antiquated methods, Non-economical plants, Transient labor, Discontented workers. We’ve eliminated those things. We’ve done it at what seems to you a heavy cost per car. But each of those extra dollars saves $5, we be lieve. Note what values and what prices have resulted. Note the amaz ing demand—the overwhelming de mand—it has brought for Studebaker cars. PAGE THREE
