exchanges will be consolidated and
WITHIN a short time Des Moines will

IN addition to the conveniences of
d sinsle system the subscribers are
promised that no increase in rates
VIII be necessary.
Ihls announcement comes from
george E, Mcfarland, general mana.
ger OF the Iowa and Mutual comnan.
les VINO has just returned from Oma-
ma, where he was in consultation with
Z. +. Yost. president of the Bell com.
panles for this section of the country.
Mr.. Mcfarland states that prop-
osltion for the consolidation of the
Two systems will be made to the a.
fectors OF the Mutual company. Just
what the proposition will be has not
yet been agreed upon.
In case the directors of the two
companies can agree ON the consoli,
Cation proposition then the matter
viii be submitted to the subscribers
OF both companies.
According to Mr.. Mcfarland Mr..
Yost thinks that raise in rates is
unnecessary as the schedule which
has been in effect for the past Eve
years will be adequate. A combinat ion
of the rates of the two companies
will probably be worked out and Will
change only some of the measured
service rates.

The most interesting announce
ment ever made In connection with
the automobile industry was I'M
doubtedly that made month or two
ago to the effect that the new models
of the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene, or coal oil, instead Of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
nized that the use of the new fuel
would add materially to the advan-
tages which the White already pos
sessed over other types of cars.
There We're some people, however,
who were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success, and, therefore. the
makers of the White Car, the White
Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, deter
mined to make public demonstra-
ton of the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint of the public,
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First of all, the dis
lance covered on the Glidden Tour,
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient to
bring out any weaknesses, If such had
existed. Still more important was
the fact that the car was at all times
while on the road under the supervi-
sion of observers named by those
who entered other contrasting cars.
Therefore, it would have been impos-
sible for the driver Of the White to
have even frightened a bolt without
the fact being noted and a penalty IN
flicted. At night the cars were
guarded by Pinkerton detectives and
could not be approached by any one.

amount Of fuel used on the tril
showed that kerosene Is at least
fifteen per cent. more efficient, gallon
for gallon, than gasoline. The car In
other respects made most creditabla
showing, and there was the usual riv.
airy among the observers to be as
signed to the White SO that they
could ride with the maximum Of com.
fort. The only adjustments OF, re.
pairs charged against the car during
the long trip were tightening lubri.
Gator pipe and wiring damaged mud
guard. These penalties were not i'm
tiicted until more than 1000 miles
had been completed with an absolute.
ly perfect score
A particularly interesting feature
of the new White Steamer is that
either kerosene or gasoline may be-
used as fuel. The necessary adjust
ments SO that the fuel may be changed
from kerosene to gasoline, or vice
versa, may be, made in couple OF
minutes; but SO completely successful
has kerosene proved to be, that it Is
not believed that any purchasers will
care to use gasoline.
The White Company report that
the demand for their new steam cars
both the s2000-model and The
s40o0model- exceed their most san.
guine expectations 1t is evident that
the combination Of steam-the pow.
err which everyone understands and
has confidence in with kerosene

and can handle without any danger

up-to-date purchasers of automO-
biles.

The complete success of the new
fuel while on the 2650-mile public
test and the advantages gained
through It's use were we'll described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion Of
the tour:
"A feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero-
sene, or coal oil, as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 265O-mile
journey, and all claims made in its
behalf were fully proven. First Of
all, as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from 6 cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gaso-
line. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per.
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place, without
draining its fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly,
kerosene could be purchased at what
ever part Of the route was most con-
venient, and not once during the trip
through the ten States Of the Middle
West was there found grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply obtainable. Finally, the
