Durum wheat is in a condition of 64% of normal and indicates a production of 41,019,000 bushels for the state. The spring wheat crop in North Dakota after a very hectic spring is extremely spotted up and down the valley and extending perhaps the first fifty miles west of the valley.. Many fields are very. gov The plants are rugged and practically all headed. This year the heads generally are short but filling nicely. Extending from perhaps fifty miles west of the river the crop thins out, due to the abnormal late spring and ummer, winds and lack of recipitation.

Studebaker Trails of Triumph Busses powered by Big Six engines The-heatry black lines show the principal routes of Studebaker bus operators. Studebaker busses are being operated in cvery state in the Union, ton ee Studebaker Smashes Transcontinental Record ox June 17th, a_atock. model Studebaker Big Six, driven by Ab Jenkins and Lake City, established a new trans- continental record, bridging the 2471-mile gap between New York and San Francisco in 86 hours, 20 minutes. This not only lowered the previous automobile record by 16 hours and 25 minutes, but also beat the fastest time by train 6 hours and 25 minutes. In addition to the gruelling strain placed’ on the car by its average speed of 40.2 miles per hour, ter- rife rainstorms, fog and deep mud combined to further test its stamina. But the Big Six never faltered — its rugged endurance and abun- dant. power being ever ready to cope with the test of time, distance and clements. Not only was this record-break- ing’ run a demonstration of the supreme stamina and speed of the Studebaker Big Six, but it also gave striking evidence of its econ- omy of operation. Even under the extremely unfavorable. conditions encountered in this coast-to-coast trip, gasoline cpnsumption aver- aged fa miles per gallon and oil, 315.5 miles per quart. YEAR ago Studebaker was forced into the bus business. Bus oper- ators had found the Studebaker Big Six engine and the Studebaker Big Six chassis were peculiarly suited to their needs. They were buying Big Six chassis in large numbers, lengthening them and equipping them with bus bodies. It was apparent the public would be better served by busses specially designed and built for this work, and Studebaker engineers were given the task of developing economical, efficient units for bus transportation. Studebaker’s $100,000,000 manufacturing facilities enabled us to sell these powerful, dependable busses at prices never before approached for such quality. The country over, far-flung trails tell the ‘ triumph of Studebaker’s achievement. Today, as the map shows, Studebaker Bus routes make neighbors of, the nation. Linking hundreds.of communities in every state, across the. desert sands of New Mexico and over the mountain passes in Montana, through clinging gumbo and along broad highways . . . everywhere Studebaker Busses are providing trust- worthy transportation. Studebaker Busses cost less to buy, less to operate and have the stamina which in- sures 100,000 — 200,000 — 300,000 miles of dependable transportation. Studebaker Big Six passenger cars offer similar economies. You can buy both a Studebaker Big Six Sedan and a Stude- baker Big Six Sport-Roadster for the price of any other sedan or roadster of equal rated horsepower. And your Studebaker will cost you less to operate and will live longer, Unsurpassed stamina Gruelling bus service has conclusively proved the merit of the Big Six engine. Since it handles 12 to 21 people and a vheavy bus with such ease at high speed “over long distances, it is no wonder that passenger-car work is mere child's play. This quiet L-head motor has reserves of power which assure-the utmost in swift acceleration and smoothly sustained per- formance, And it does its work so easily that repairs and depreciation are minimized. It is not surprising that the Studebaker Big Six (at One-Profit prices) outsells every other car in the world of equal or greater rated horsepower, The following Big Six Studebakers may ‘be purchased out of income at time-pay- ment rates as low as any known to the motor world: 3-Pass.
