BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE REPORT SHOWS | OATS ARE BIG CROP OF YEAR | Harvest On Over Northwest; Wheat Now Being Market- ed at Elevators i DURUM WHEAT NOT HURT Minneapolis, Minn., Aug. 14,.—The weekly crop report issued by the Van Dusen Harrington. Co. today gives crop conditions as follows: “Since last week the weather has been hot and dry. The southern ter- ritory has been favored with local showers which have heen of great benefit. Nearly all small grain is cut in the southern part of the four northwestern states, and threshing is underway. Harvesting is now gen- eral in the north. The late crops have undoubtedly been hurt during the past week, by heat, drought and rust. Regardless of unfavorable weather for rust, it has continued to damage the grain. We have reports from a number of districts stating | that fields of late wheat will not pay to cut. 24,000,000 Decrease. The August. 1 government esti- mate, of the spring wheat crop for the four northwestern states is 174,- 480,000. bushels. This is about 24,- 000,000 bushels less than the July 1 estimate. , Most of this Joss has oc- curred during the past two weeks by} hot weather and rust. “In, some places wheat is of good weight and ‘excellent quality, while in others it is badly shrunken but Qt good ‘milling value. New wheat is now’ being marketed at country elevators." We have reports of { threshing being stopped for lack of steam coal, This situation unless re- aeved will delay the movement’ of t .

These performances show what to expect of the Essex you ‘will get. They are not a surprise to the more than 40,000 Essex owners, althoug ; stances was never shown by any other car. S S E 2 Some of the hardest tests were made by Essex cars that had already traveled over 35,000 miles—equiv- alent to 7 years What Is There Left For Essex to Prove Note the Range of Its Nation-Wide Performances All Made in One Week of average driving . Some were on original tires that had done from 15,000 to 20,000 miles: Many were owner cars—owner driven—taken without special preparation from their ordinary day-to- day work, to break the speed, reliability and economy marks of their localities. Women piloted some of the runs that showed as high as 28 miles ‘to’the gallon-of gasoline. They set new marks for fast time over long-distance driving where men with many cars hesitate to ven- ture. Is there any important car quality left for Essex to prove? _. BCONOMY ‘ With 49 cars in every type of performance of from 5 to 72 miles per hour and over aH kinds of roads the average was 18.9 miles per gallon. ae | 24 cars were , sent on an average 216-mile economy run in Connecticut, some over mountains and oth- ers on a level course, averaging 18.7 miles per gal- lon. One car with 35,000 miles service averaged , K 21.2 miles per gallon. i A Hastings, coln averagin, and another Neb., woman drove 109 miles ‘to. Lin- g 28 miles per gallon. Four women drove. from Los ‘Angeles to San Fran- cisco and return ‘averaging 22.3 miles’ per, gallon Essex made the round trip between the two citites, 846 miles, with an average of 23 miles per gallon. RELIABILITY Reliability which is a. larger factor if car economy than even gasoline mileage, was proven in every locality in non-stop motor performances and in long- distance inter-city runs. . : : An Essex which had seen 16,000 miles service was = driven from Columbus, Ohio, to Washington, D. C., 403 miles, in 11 hours, 40 minutes. Another Essex that had set the best time between Boston and Fort Kent. on the Canadian Border, made four round trips within a week, totaling 4,052 miles. An Essex which had previously: gone 28,000 miles made a round trip between San Francisco and Los Angeles over a route of grades and mountain passes, frequently far from ‘water supply, with its’ géar shift levers, hood and radiator all sealed. It. av- eraged 22.8 miles per gallon. e- Literally hundreds of tests like these were made in all parts of the country.

SPEED The inter-city records for time in nearly, all locali- ties are now held by Essex. From. Buffalo, N. ¥,, to. Rochester the distance is 88 miles. An Essex didjit in 80 minutes. The St. Louis to Kansas City record, 303 miles, was taken by Essex in ‘10 hours, 17 minutes. “Ab- other Essex went from Yakima, Wash., to Seattle, 180.1 miles, over Cascade Mountains in 4 hours, 56: ;- minutes, lowering the railroad time by 1 hour, 44 minutes. ‘HILL-CLIMBS In every section Essex seti new performance: marks on the most difficult hills. The Rim O’ the World in California, a climb of nearly 5,000 feet in 8.8 miles over mountain roads, was made in 17 minutes, 23 seconds, beating all previous records. The 31st Street hill in Washington, D. climbed by an Essex on:high. No other car had done that. And on the Tilden Street hill an Essex went over thé top at 51 miles per hour and the same car towcd a 6-ton truck wih load 16 blocks up hill. NON-STOP MOTORS At many points non-stop motor performances .were made during which the car was for a greater time _.used in eountry and inter-city running. No attempt ‘was made at speed; but in no ‘case was the motor. vvstopped during the period of test. Scores of cities - saw the Essex in constant operation for 144 hours. ‘At one point a two weeks’ test—336 hours—was made:of a motor in constant operation. R. B.
