Automobile Figures According to figures just compiled by the Bureau of Foreign and Dom- estic Commerce, Department, 40 mil- lion dollars’ worth of automobiles and parts thereof were sent out of continental United States in the fis- cal year 1913, against about 1 mil- lion dollars’ worth in 1903, a decade earlier. These figures of 1913 in- clude 26 million dollars’ worth of finished automobiles sent to foreign countries, about 2 1-2 million dollars’ ‘worth to Hawaii and Porto Rico, 4 million dollars’ worth of tires, 2 mil- lion dollars’ worth of automobile en- gines, and 5 1-4 dollars’ worth of parts other than tires and engines. It was only in 1902 that the exports became sufficient to justify a separate record of this class of merchandise, the figures for that year, including the separate parts, being less than 1 mil- lion dollars. In 1907, five years later they were but 6 million, and in 1910, approximately 12 million dollars in million of automobiles THE BEMIDJI DALY PIOKEER | @ G GENEERED GENNINED GRS _ reductions. pect. $22.50 suits go for........... $15 and $16.50 suits $12 suits will go prices like these: $5 values x for...... v $4 values $2 values $1 values try.
