Interest in Eight
Cylinder Machines
"A over Ii per cent of our output I
sold to farmrs, w have been keenly
Interested In tha att'.tuda of farmer motor
car buyers toward eight-cylinder rooters,"
says Claude 8. Brlggs, president of the
Brlgga-Detrolter company of Detroit,
which recently announced a five-passenger
'Eight" at tl.198.
"Farmer are conservative when it
come to buying n automobile, and being
well posted on mechanical matter, their
approval or disapproval is a very vital
factor In our business.
"Believing that perhaps the farmer
would be alow to accept the 'Eight' w
based our plan on a limited demand
from farmer buyers and a big demand
from city purchasers.
'"We hit the nail on the head so far a
the cities were concerned, but we made
a bad guess on the farmer, who has taken
to the 'Right' with an entirely unlooked
for enthusiasm, as shown by tha result
of the show at New York and Chicago.
"Moat of tha territory assigned by us
at these show wa to dealers whose
business la mostly with farmers, and
who, in the aggregate, would have placed
orders with us for more than twice the
number of 'Klghts' we can build thia sea
son, had we allowed them to do so.
"Farmer have been quick to realize
the advantages of the 'EIbM.' especially
for section where heavy roads and bad
bills prevail. The absence of vibration
Increase very materially the life of the
working part of the car, and where the
automobile I eubjected to hard sen-ice
on account of bad roads or hills, this
factor I most Important."
Mr. Brlggs state that quantity ship
ments of Detrolter "Eights" will begin
