“Such shipments mean Studehaker
has the confidence of the farmer”
Every year over one hundred thousand horse-
driven vehicles are sold by Studehaker. Over a million
Studehaker vehicles are always in use. Stop and
think what that means.
This enormous output means that Farmers—the
men who know—depend upon Studehaker wagons to
do their work.
And a Studehaker wagon never fails. It is always
ready to do a big day’s work—and to keep on doing
it. 1 here are thousands of Studehaker wagons that
have been in service from 20 to 40 years.
A Studehaker wagon is a real business asset. Wheels, body,
frame, axles and running gear have been tested and retested by
experts. You can buy cheaper wagons but they’re not Studebakcrs,
nor will they last like Studdtaker wagons.
Whether in city, town or country, for business or pleasure,
there is a Studehaker vehicle to meet your requirements. Farm
wagons, trucks, contractors’ wagons, buggies, surreys, runabouts,
pony carriages, business and delivery wagons—each the best of its
kind. Studebaker harness also, of every description.

extended during the next few years,
it is claimed by business men gen-
erally that their demand for a one-
cent letter rate should be heeded.
They point to the fact that the post-
office department is now realizing an
enormous surplus, something like
$65,000,000 per year, from the let-
ter mail. Although letter mail con-
stitutes but fourteen per cent of the
revenue of the department it pays
about seventy-five per cent of the
revenue received from all' classes,
and it is evident that this is a decid-
ed discrimination against users of
first class or letter mail.
One of the interesting features of
the postoffice department which will
be investigated 1s the so-called “blue
tag” system. In September, 1011,
the plan was inaugurated. It covers
tlhat section of the United States lying
between Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Chicago.

cock, w ho recently retired from office,
was firm in the belief that an im-

followed, and all large eastern maga- (

letter mail, on the other hand, !
costs its originators an average rate
of over 84c per pound, because there
are in the neighborhood of 4 5 pieces, j
including some postal cards, to the ’
pound This means a .cost of $1,680 j
per ton to the originator of letter '
mail, as against $20 per ton for the ,
big magazines published in the east,
some of which charge as high as $5,- j
000 a page for advertisements.
It is claimed that the 'loss to the !
government through this lack of I
business method is over $60,000,000
per year, sufficient to entirely eat up
J the surplus furnished by first class
mail.
It is to Investigate this entire .
problem with a view to making rec-1

ment that the commission will deal.
Sentiment in favor of a one-cent let-
ter rate is now strong throughout
the country, according to officers of i
the National One-Cent Letter Pos-
tage Association, which has its head-
quarters iti Cleveland, and which Is
conducting a vigorous campaign for'
the lower rate.
