The latter crop-has been hit the hardest by the storms of the past fdw days. The corn has been up- oted by the heavy rains and in many instances has been blown down by| the heavy winds which preceded and followed the stormas. Che farmers are alse complaining of the potato crop which during the dry\ spell began to shrivel up and now\sdue to the raim, is beginning to r&z The majority find that there is alko the return of a @isease which has killed many plants. The small truck| gardener reports, however, that erything in that line is growing and crops \are good. \Trolleys Often Delayed.

Supposing you came to us and said “Here is what I want if I buy a Hupmobile: “First of all is reliability.” (In the Hupmobile you are downright sure of reliability that is almost.amazing. It keeps on going without frequent tuning and tinkering.) “Next, I want a low running cost and upkeep cost.” (The Hupmobile reputation for economy of tires and gasoline and oil is known everywhere. Its rec- ord stands alone when it comes to low repair costs.) “Finally, I want long life, and if I should sell it, a high re-sale price.” (It is next to impossible to kill the Hupmobile, and ‘any dealer will tell you how high it stands in the used-car market.)
