Run Demonstrates
Great Durability
0fDiamOnd Tires

Hardly less remarkable than the per-
fcrmance Of the Franklin car in the re-
cent test was the entire absence Of tire
troubles.
A set OF Diamond tires was used,
which were on the car when It came
to Washington on December Z. and
which have not been removed since that
date. Since its arrival here the car
has run about 800 miles. Equipped
with these tires il carried the path
finding party over the route Of The
Times Sealed Bonnet Contest and a
few days later went over the course
in the competition, finishing with a per-
feet score. Both these runs were Sc
severe tests 10 tires as well as TO the car.
The roads on the days OF the contest
were in worse condition than at any
time this winter and the last four trims
over the route have been over frozen
ground, which was especially hard on
tires.
In spite Of this fact the test has been
free from tire troubles, no punctureS
having been made on any Of the four
round trips
The Franklin car, which last sum
mer broke the New Nork-Chicago time
record, was equipped with Diamond
tires and the forty hours run at high
speed resulted in but one punCture. The
car which covered the Allentown course
three times was another demonstTa-
ton Of the durability of the Diamonds,
but one puncture being made on the
three days Of the run.

SUGAR LOAF ORANGE
GROWERS BUY PROPERTY
VIII Increase Output with 355 Acres
Already Contracted and Splendid
Prospects for Gigantic
Packing House

The Sugar Loaf Orange Growers as
ISOLATION, which was organized in July
and which comprises representative
growers of Highgrove and vicinity,
has purchased the Moulton & Greene
packing house, or rather has secured
the same for a reasonable rental from
e. F. Wolever, who is manager of the
new association, and purchased the
house for the use of the organization.
1t is the purpose of the Sugar Loaf
association to. get it's fruit to market
in the best possible condition, and
special care will be taken to put out
an attractive pack. Quality rather
than quantity will be the motto adj
hered to, and accordingly the amount
of fruit that will be handled by the
house this season will be limited to
500 acres.
Already s55 acres have been signed
up, and the new association opens
up with splendid prospects. The
packing house is one of the best
equipped on the coast, being fitted up
with the most modern and up-to-date
appliances for the handling of fruit.
The new association is in the hands of
first-class business men and Will be
under competent management.
The arrangement with Manager VOL
ever, whereby the Moulton & Greene
house was secured, means that the new
organization will be on the same basis
as the other associations and at no dis
advantage in any respect.
The officers are +. M. Ryon, presi-
dent; N. H. Twogood. vice president;
e. f. Wolever, manager and temporary
secretary.

CUDAHY RANCH GETS
A HANDSOME PRIZE

FARM PRODUCTS
Result at Sacramento SO Satisfactory
That Local Region Will Send

querque

AS the result of an abundant water
supply and the pursuit of scientiho
system of cultivation and irrigation, the
Cudahy Ranch was awarded nrst
premium for the best display of farm
products from any one ranch at the
California state fair at sacramento
last week. The display was a glorious
one from an agricultural ana norticul-
tural aspect. 1t consisted of the finest
in pears, apples, peaches, walnuts and
other fruits and tree products, and also
of great squash, pumpkins, sugar peets'
potatoes and various other vegetables.
The prize awarded was a handsome
gold medal.
Manager James r. II. Wagner Of the
Cudahy Ranch and Frank Virgins OF
the chamber of commerce, VINO In
duced Wagner to send an exhibit tc
Sacramento, were much pleased witt
the award, which is only another marE
of approval set on the products ano
land of southern California.
The chamber of commerce nov is pre-
pairing an imposing display of Southern
California products for exhibition DUR
ing the Sixteenth Annual Irrigation
congress, and the TWenty-elgnth An
nual Territorial fair to be held at AL

position and will serve to show the re-
sources and possibilities of the great
tract.
