Last year this Company paid a 40% cash dividend. In 1915 it paid 32% in cash and 150% in stock. In spite of rising of materials, profits per car have risen from $263 to $335 in the past three years. This is not a lone instance of profits in motors. Another truck company records 228% earned in three years, and another 53:%.in 1915, Note the quotation from Motor in this advertisement. An opportunity to share in the un- precedented profits, and more important still to share in the stock bonuses, which come to early stockholders, is present today in motors, as in no other industry in Amer- ica. The records of earnings in this in- dustry read like magic. Profits are enormous in practically every motor company, and the balance sheets of the past year surpassed all records. Everyone knows of the fortunes taken by R. FE. Olds, Mr. Willys, Henry Ford and Mr Couzens. the Dodge Brothers and others. But few ever heard of a clerk in the Downey House, Lansing, Mich., who, in 1904, put a single $1,000 in the original issue of Reo stock and today counts his fortune over $119,000. There are thousands of these modest investors of whom no word is ever pub lished. The big successes have been made in designing motors to meet a price demand, Fulton Motor Truck Co., of New York has opened another great big opportunity by bringing to the public the most remarkable 1?2-ton tuck ever designed—a full 3000-pound capacity to sell at the phenomenally low price of $1090 flat. It has opened a new price field, more than $200 under its nearest competitor in size and quality, and achieved success by selling the originally planned output of 1,000 trucks, immediately the sales models were shown. Entire Year’s Output Sold in Four Days In the Turkish Room of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, where the first public ex- hibition of Fulton trucks was made during the New York automobile show, the year’s building schedule was absorbed in 4 days. New York City took 500. would take many times the possible output, It has been done a dozen times in pleasure cars, there are several striking examples in the motor truck field, and now the and_plans_were immediately made to at least_double_the manufacture for_1917. Sales models were then taken to the Chicago Show, where, in the Congress- Annex Hotel, which housed the Automo- bile Salon, another exhibit was made. Over too dealers have made application for territory. Fulton trucks are being manufactured and shipped from the factory at Farmingdale, Long Island, just outside the Metropolitan district, as per schedule. ‘The public is invited to inspect the plant.
