50,000 MOTOR CARS IN ONE YEAR.
The total output of cars from the greatest of American automobile factories, that of the E.M.F. Studebaker Corporation, during 1912 will be 50,000 curs. Why is it that one American manufacturer can find a market four times as large as all the motor manufacturers of the United Kingdom f The reason is to be found in the low price of E.M.F. and Flanders cars, combined with flawless perfection and absolute reliability. The high quality of those cars has brought about an enormous demand, and the tremendous output has lessened the cost of production to a degree impossible in England. Lixik at the value given, and you will understand why the E.M.F. and Flanders <ars are the most popular in the world to-day. The 1912 E.M.F. Thirty has a handsome fore door, flush torpedo body, Michelin tyres, an equipment of cape hood, wind screen. 5 lamps, magneto end accumulator ignition, spare wheel, complete with tyre and holder, and sells at £4OO.
The Flanders Twenty, same body and equipment as the E.M.F.. sells at £3(1".
