Always look for the U. S. Seal—it means solid wear and long service foe your money.

Illinois tills year is harvesting one of the largest apple crops In Its history, 11. K. Young, secretary of the Illinois Farm ers ' Institute, re­ports. The bumper crop Is not being grown in the commercial orchards, which cover thousands of acres In the southern half of the state, Mr. Young says, but In the small home orchards which dot the farms of every county This s ta te easily s tands third among the s ta tes of Mils country In tlio pro­duction of apples, and it ranks second to none as regards quality and excel­lence of Its fruit , neenrding to tho Fnrmers ' Institute secretary.

the New Edison. H e h a s a l s o made recordings for one of the standard talking-machines.

W e are glad to announce that these talk ing-machine recordings m ay now be heard. W e wan t you to hear them —and com pare! De­termine for yourself which gives you the real Rachmaninoff.

Let us play R a c h m a n in o f fs E d ison R e - C r e a t i o n s f o r y o u .

M ark how clear, how true the piano tone. See how e v e r y note in his runs, every accent in his in­terpretation, every shade in his pedalling is perfectly R e - C r e a t e d .

This was p ro ved by a test made a t Mr. Rachm aninoffs home in N ew York City. H e played the Second H u n g a r ia n R h a p so d ie (Liszt) in direct comparison with the R e - C r e a t i o n o f his perform­

ance by the N ew Edison. The absolute fidelity of the R e - C r e a t i o n

to the a rtist’s original peformance astounded the listeners.

Make the Rachmaninoff com­parison. I t will guide you right in selecting your Christmas phono­graph.

A sk alsoabout our B udget Plan

I t brings your New Edison for Christmas w ithout squeezing your pocketbook. Remember, too, that, in buying a N ew Edison now, you are virtually buying a before-the- war-value w ith an after-the-w ar- dollar. The price of the New Edison has increased less than 15% since 1914, and a portion of this increase is w ar tax. “ Edison stood the gafF” to keep his favorite in­vention within the reach of every one who loves beautiful music.

Years Experience_ . - ><**•

For sixteen years, a corps of m etallurgists have been studying and constantly perfecting the steel that goes Into every part of the Ford car and the Ford One Ton Truck. Each separate part has been studied to learn the type of steel best fitted for it. Parts receiving constant surface-wear are m age of hard, flln t-lik e m etal; parts subjected to great vibration or resilience are made of softer, springy steel. Every part is made according to Its use— that is. every Genuine Ford part Is.

But there are also counterfeit “Ford” parts. These Im itations are made by concerns In no way connected with the Ford Motor Company and retailed as side­lin es by m ail-order houses, down-town stores, and many garages. The unsuspecting custom er accepts them because they are called "Ford” parts. To make sure of g ettin g the genuine Ford-made parts, buy them only from Authorized Ford Dealers Likewise bring or take your Ford car to our garage for repairs, replacem ents, and general "tuning up.”

We are Authorized Ford Dealers. We can supply you with all Ford parts for eith er passenger car or truck. And our shop is equipped to g ive real Ford service In all repair work.

Illinois Central Presents Comparative Coat* of Passenaer Fares

Americans pay more for nearly everyth ing they buy than do Europeans. They are able to pay more because their w ages are relatively higher. There Is one notable exception, however— passenger transportation charges In th is country are sub­stantia lly lower.

A lthough there has been a recent increase In Am erican passenger fares, Am ericans still pay less for traveling accom m odations than Europeans. The fo l­low ing Is a comparison between passenger fares charged in the United States, the points being on the Illinois Central System , and fares paid by Europeans traveling sim ilar distances:

Onarga Leader & R eview — The republican landslide of last week Is an object lesson. It Is even more than that, for it literally dem olish­ed the idea that w hat is, may con­tinue to be, no m atter w hether it is, or is not. in accord w ith public sentim ent. The ballot is the most consistent anu efficatious weapon of defense that may be placed in the hands of the people, and when it speaks in such a forceful practical manner as it did last week, it is w ell for all political aspirants to sit up and take notice. That is the object lesson with which the republican party is now confronted. Be right, do right, or get out. It isn ’t often that the voice of the ballot speaks so em phatically as it did last week, and Senator Harding, who says he can't be controlled by any clique or clan, w ill have a fine opportunity to turn an assertion into a fact. All overw helm ing m ajority of the voters have said to him, “ thou art the m an,” and to the republicans, thou art the party, and to the present period, th is Is the tim e and place. The com ing adm inistration w ill be one in which expectation w ill reach the superlative degree, demand w ill be urgent, action peremptory, decis­ions wise, judgm ents Im partial, re­lie f from excessive taxation speedy— a straightforw ard, honest adm inis­tration, whose principles are gener­ously endowed w ith the synonym s of progress and the antonym s of re- action. It n'ill bo th° nrlvIlAO'A of the republican party to do better in th e future than it has In the past. The realization of these conditions w ill be a b lessing to the nation and an omen of good for the perpetua­tion of republican principles.

All American fares given in the table include a war tax of 8 per cent. The American sleeping-car fares are for low er berths.

The American custom of handling, free of charge, as much baggage as the or­dinary passenger carries Is unknown abroad. In addition, baggage rates In Europe are much h igher than in the United States. T his condition should be considered in com paring passenger fares in the various countries.

In th e United S tates the railroads collect a surcharge on sleep ing-car fares,* w hich is Included In the above table. This surcharge helps to m eet the cost of haul­

in g the heavier cars required, In w hich fewer passengers are carried.D uring 1J19 the Illinois Central hauled l t t gross tons of w eight for each

coach passenger carried, and 4 4-10 gross tons of w eight for each sleeping-car pas­senger carried. N ot to collect the surcharge, therefore, would obviously be a d is­crim ination against th e coach passenger, and an in ju stice to the railroad.

The costs of faculties for rendering passenger service have Increased greatly.The average passenger coach cost $12,400 In 1914; It now costs $30,300, an in­crease of 144 per cent. The average passenger locomotive cost $20,000 In 1914; It

„ now costs $66,000, an Increase of 225 per cent. There have been heavy Increases In the coets of wages, fuel and other materials.

These are some of the reasons why passenger fares are nedeosarlly higher now than they were In former years.

Constructive criticism and suggestions are Invited.C. H. MARKHAM,

President, Illinois Central Railroad Company-- . " *

Jewelry prices were less affected than any other line by the economic pressure which elevated prices of all commodities. Last to respond to these conditions, and least affected by them, they were first to be free

from that influenoe, and today are again on a staple basis representing normal buying power for your dol­lars.

This fact is of supreme importance to Christmas shoppers, for no present quite equals jewelry, “THE GIFT THAT LASTS.’’

Early shoppers will find Volk- mann's ready for them with very large and wonderfully beautifulstocks of jewelry for women, men and children, at prices most welcome to the Christmas pocketbook.

Paris Beacon: A fter every election a lot of men see opportunities to re - , tu rn to law practices Ural have been ' neglected.

Morris Herald: The ordinary citl- ' zen derives immense satisfaction from the fact th a t he doesn’t have ' to be president.

Rockford Register-G azette: W ith the University of Illinois enrollm ent rising to 10,000 it will not be denied tha t the young people of the post­war generations are am bitious for tra in ing .

Canton R egister: Chicago has a new chief of police. T hat fron tier! town certa in ly needs one. He will [ undertake to drive the crim inals and i crooks out of his jurisdiction. We tru s t he drives them Into Lake Mich­igan ra th e r than In th is direction.

The Interstate Commerce Commission has granted the passen­ger raise and doubtless w ill grant the fre igh t raise. The I. C. C. by th is declare they are bigger than the sta te of Illinois which has a two- cent a m ils passenger lim it on Its statu te books. And yet tbs railroad people wonder w hy the people are al­ways prejudiced against the rail­roads. The people stood for the last raise w hich the railroads said was necessary to rebuild and re-eqntp the syetfine thru grovernment mis­management bnt they are not no sure that this raise la necessary.
