There was danger with the Vapid ,- growth of rubber manufactur ing trfat there would be a robber famine. So'.treet were planted In planta tions. 1 iFtor a few years the predictions of the plantation men were laughed at. Brazil continued to depend on Its wild supply,. But now the. whole complex ion; t rubber production has changed. Plant4,tlpns are producing more than' the wfl'd supply, and the proportions for each are. continuing to grow. 'JA, targe part of the world's rubber comes to manufacturers via London, say from Sumatra Ceylon, etc. A leading Goodyear estlmatod that for 1914 the worlds, rubber production would bet Plantation, 65,000 tons, Braitl, wild, S3.0W; other-wild, 10,000 tons. Within & ffow yeattr, plantation rubber will' almost wholly ' supersede the wild aupply, the wild rubber has certain qualities that win always make the use of quantities of it necessary." t Oakland Cars Are lEbpular With Auto ' .

A Greater Paige for 1915 A better car not a cheaper car is offered in the Paige "36" for 1915. Just now prices are being slashed right and left in the automobile field and there is red hot competition among many manufacturers to bring their selling price down to the very lowest point The "Ten Associates," however, are not content to sacri fice quality in order to present to the public alluring "bargain" inducements. They prefer to offer more car value for the money rattier than a skimped product at a decreased price. Investigate the new Paige note the many added refine mentsand then ask yourself whether you prefer to buy more car for the money or less quality for a "price."
