out of cars logan has sold out ogden has only a few cars left the following is a statement from joseph F hansen who has visited the dodge brothers factory at detroit mien mich while on the train from chicago to new york I 1 met a gentleman who I 1 learned was the manufacturer of automobile radiators after getting acquainted with the gentleman I 1 put the question to him as I 1 had to many others where can I 1 get an automobile that is a REAL automobile to at a reasonable price I 1 want a car which will be first class in every particular and yet one which will not rob the purchaser to pay tor for it the gentleman did not answer rne me for some little time but turned the subject into other channels but when we got off the train at buffalo as we were about to part he going to canada and I 1 to new york city he made this statement mr air hansen I 1 am now manufacturing radiators for some of the leading cars and am now building the dodge radiator and have seen the details ot of the new dodge brot brothers hers automobile I 1 cannot say any more to you at the present time than this if you wish to get any territory for the COMING COATING automobile wire dodge brothers immediately do not wait to go and see them as you will be too late hut but wire dodge brothers however I 1 thought I 1 would look over the field more thoroughly before taking any agency so I 1 spent ten days visiting the different factories and looking over the different ca cars rs offered finaly I 1 went into a large place in new york and after getting acquainted with the manager I 1 put the same question to him as I 1 had to the man on the train he called we me into his private office and used almost the same words as had been used before wire dodge brothers for such territory as you want do not wait to go and see them or you will be too late but wire dodge brothers yet I 1 thought it would be safer to visit them and see what kind hind of a factory they have so I 1 took the first train and next day landed in detroit this was after visiting some of the largest and finest factories sa a the united states when I 1 got off the train at detroit I 1 asked the coachman where Is dodge brothers factory he rather smiled and answered you will have po no trouble in finding dodge brothers brothe ir a as they are one of the largest concerns in the world in tact fact tho the largest T dw yu makers of automobile parts in the world and also the oldest in a few minutes we arrived at their plant and found one of the largest factories in existence it i not the largest as their factories cover acres of grounds ground several of 0 our largest business houses in bo box elder county could be put in their off offices tees their factory is strictly modern and equipped with the finest machinery in every detail machinery which by one single operation or one stroke of a trip hammer will do the work of days ot of arduous manual labor labor saving machinery in ID every department part ment I 1 was disappointed to and that the rency gency for the state of utah had already been taken by the tom botterill automobile co of salt lake lity and the only available territory was box eider eder and oneida counties but finaly after some strenuous effort I 1 secured the agency for these two counties and I 1 found that people were wiring almost every hour and offering premiums tor for the agency of the dodge brothers automobiles applications coming from one city alone which was los angeles after seeing the factory and talking with some of the leading automobile men I 1 had sufficient confidence in the product of dodge brothers to advance the deposit debost t payment for 25 dodge automobiles last sep ember before I 1 had ever seen seea a picture of the specifications of this car and when the car finally arrived in salt lake a few weeks ago while I 1 expected a great deal I 1 found the ear car was even better than I 1 had looked for and I 1 consider the purchaser fortunate indeed who can secure one of these cars the car is on exhibition at our store and orders will be filled in the order that they are taken we have the promises ot of regular shipments into the state ot of utah but can get no promise tor for more cars than our present al allotment which Is 25 cars tor for the two counties respectfully yours HANSEN MOTOR CAR CO JOSEPH P F HANSEN president W IL II
