Repairs oi! s minor nature are

It was necessary to ship our old
Cletrec tructor to Denbury for
complete ovcl‘hnuling‘the latter port

ly completed now and the tractor
should be returned very shortly. u
“Heavy duty during the snow

new road machine and tractor to
give way. These have been rcpslr-
ed and this machine in now in very
good condition.
The old 10 ton steam roller is
showing signs of heavy wear and in

‘ APrice Reduction
—.and its reSult
A year ago Packard reduced
the price of Packard Six»
closed cars nearly one thou-
sand dollars.
The result-morethan twice
as many Packard Six cars
were sold in 1925 as in 1924.
' Seventy percent of the Peck-
ard Six cars sold in, 1925
were bought by those who
j never before had owned a
high gredeniotor car. '
Thousands of thm new
owners bought their can on
the payment plan. the ever-
ase payment seldom exceed-
ing $150 per month.
