Huffman said: II. w. Swanbrough Of
Denver is a Hupmobile owner who has
been putting his car through some stiff
places to see what kind Of stuff it's
made of, and to find, if he can, a limit
to its endurance.
Mr.. Swanbrough's latest venture
was a 4O0-mile trip through the Colo
RADIO mountains. The major part of
the journey was made at elevations
averaging 5000 feet, and at this height
he says he experienced no trouble In
negotiating 80 per cent grades. At
this height and on slopes so steep.
he says, he had no trouble averaging
fifteen miles per gallon of gasoline
while on the easier stretches, the average
was thirty miles to the gallon. The last
100 miles Of the trip was made in
five and one-half hours.
Down among the Georgia hills, Ty
Cobb is putting the Hupmoblle
through its PAGES. During the Atlanta
show, cobb drove his car from Au-
gusta, his home, to Atlanta, a distance
Of 21O miles, in ten hours. What makes
the time remarkable is the fact that the
car was loaded with three men, including
Cobb, and three suit cases. 1t also car
ried it's complete equipment of wind

plete plant in order to meet the increased
demand for st. Louis cars.
Mr.. Guy l.. Smith, the Franklin automo-
bile dealer has returned from a visit to
the factory of the II. II. Franklin Manu-
featuring company in Syracuse, N. Y,
where he went to inspect and become ac-
quainted with the 1910 models Of the Frank
lin car and to arrange for the coming
season. The first of these 1910 cars have
now been in service some time, One of
them recently acquired the distinction Of
breaking a worlds record as it's intro
duction to the public. That was in an
efficiency contest held by the
club of Buffalo, in when the Franklin
went 461 miles, carrying a combined car
and passenger weight Of 2,94S pounds on one
gallon Of gasoline.
Mr.. Smith was given an opportunity to
ride in and drive cars Of the new model
and assure himself that the company was
right in declaring that for 1910 it would
put on it's air-cooled motor car in a form
that would mark a distinct development
in automobile construction,
The new cars are being made in fifteen
models, the range Of horsepower being
forty-two, twenty-cight and eighteen. The
engine shows a new application Of the
current of cooling air, which tests are
showing to be more effective, A feature
Is the abolition of the front fan which
marks the construction Of other auto
mobile engines.
Mr.. smith found the factory running to
its capacity. With delivery of 1910 cars
well Under way, the fun factory force is
being employed to bring forward the entire
season TO meet the growing demand for
motor cars which throughout the country
is expected in 1910 to exceed the supply.
The factory itself mas been enlarged by
the construction of a sixth story for the
second largest of the buildings, thus max
ing an increase Of 5000 square feet, or a
total of nearly 100000 square feet in floor
space. In addition a neighboring factory
building has been leased for use Of the
commercial car department.

or both, getting the worst OF It.
IT'S mighty different now.
Mine out of ten Of my buyers have more
or less technical knowledge Of what the
the machine they want must embody and
the more salient merits of construction and
automobile engineering seem TO be known
to all Of them.
Where a man used to buy a machine in
fifteen minutes because it carried an aristo-
cratic name and an attractive coat OF paint,
he now approaches me with an air Of conf
dence and a volley of questions concerning
vital points of construction, which go to
show that he has given the subject deep
study.

rapidly and has now reached a state of
perfection which insures the up-to-date
