The car race some experts have called the 'toughest sports contest of all- time began at New York City in 1908. • . • • Six cars started out on a race over 13,000 miles of land and 8,000 miles of water (this part of it on ships). 'They were in a race westward'from New York to Paris, Thin,was, don't forget, 1908 and, you call iraagine the • kind of roads .they had to use. They drove across the U.S., -Japan, Manchuria, Siberia, Russia, Poland, Germany and Frange, fighting blizzards, failures, fallen bridges, deserts and tundra .- • • The three French' cars 'never did finish. More than five months after it set out the Gernian car reached Paris. Four days later, the American cali-arrived,",and the Italians came in six weeks after that. , But the 'Germans had been given a 15 -day penalty for E breaking the rules, and the Americans IC*15-day eredit for ob- _ serving them, so •the. Americans were declared the winners. The toughest of all races .had taken them 168 days. Such toughness was unusual in those days, but tough - nes is a byword of today's highly competitive car manufac- turing . Durability is built into today's cars and you'll find the pick of them out On our lot. That's the secret of buying a used car, to 'get the quality the maker Dist put into it, at a knock -down price.And that, you'llfind, is what we have.

Montgomery, agricultural rep- resentative for Huron. Making his semi-annual repert. Mr. Montgomery need that the sale values of farms in Huron have 'been going up or several years; they are ,going to keep on going up, he predicted, partly be - Cause mechanization is making it necessary for farm families to in- crease their acreages, and partly, because newcomers are strength- ening the demand' for farm and In the south part of the .county, *here cash crops of sugarbeets and white beans were the victims of bad autumn weather in 1954, cash income has been down "dis- astrously," Mr. Montgomery said, but prospeets at present are for a good season in 1955. Poultrykeepers in the county also had a poor year financially in 1954, but may do better this Year, he told the Council. "Poul- try seems to be getting in the way of a two-year cycle," Mr. Mont- gomery said, "Every other year, it Seems, is a difficult one for poultrymen."

' The demands on the airfoil:4w- al ,representative.es Office- are greater in Huron than in -any other county, said Mr. Montgoak- ery, simply because Huron, agri- culturally, 'is the biggest county in the province. while it is not the greatest In area, it •has the greatest area of tillable land.
