MANY FARMERS ARE BUYING AUTOMOBILES Majority of Those Who Do Not Have Machines Are Thinking Seriously of Purchasing An Investigation by Farm Life, cov ering seven counties In southwestern Indiana, shows that twice as many cars are being sold this year, as com pared with last; and that about 75 per cent, of the machines going out this •eason are being sold to farmers. The investigation seems thorough enough to establish a basis for the "whole country. The licenses issued by the State were first considered, run ning about (14,000 against3o,ooo for the eame date In 1914. The dealers were interviewed, as well as more than •seven hundred farmers. Farm Life declares that not only are average farmors buying machines, but that every fourth or fifth man In terviewed, if he had no car, is plan ning to buy one—this year or next — If his crops and his live stock ven tures turn out according to his reason able hopes. Is this unusual investment in auto mobiles by farmers a sign of pros perity? It is attributed by Farm Lafe large ly to the decrease in the price of ma chines, and the need felt by the farm er for a time saving and pleasure giv ing vehicle. In no instance was it found that the farmers neglected their flocks to go joy-riding; on the con trary, the machine owners were pros perous and happy. A machine helps to keep the boys and girls on the farm It does away with the loneliness of rural life by making a suburbanite of its owner, and puts the town and the country in closer touch, both in a social and a business way.
