NEW CARS FOR BIC SHOW
Omaha Auto Dealers Preparing for
Display in February.
FACTORIES LOOK FOR BIG RUSH
Manufacturers Make Ready TO Double
Ontput OF Their PIants-Demand
Ever Growing in West
ern Territory.

Clarke G. Powell, director Of the Omaha
Automobile show association has returned
from the cast, where he has been visiting
the supply factories and the manufacturers
Of accessories. Mr.. Powell says that all
the factories are looking for an enormous
increase in business and many are enlarg-
ing their plants, sons even preparing TO
double their output.
February 2i-2s has been decided upon as
the date for the Omaha Automobile show
at the Auditorium and the dealers are al
ready preparing to get IN a supply of new
cars especially for the show,
Since the show OF last year many new
automobile firms have been added to the
list OF Omaha dealers and Faruam street
from Eighteenth street TO Twenty-fourth

business. being known as automobile row,
Besides the large number Of the retail
automobile dealers and several agencies
which have been established in Omaha the
large implement houses are adding auto
mobile departments to their already large
stocks OF goods and are selling cars In ire
n edous quantities over a vast territory,
These Implement dealers were practically
forced TO add departments 20

in this city. The location is just across the
street from the Fredrickson garage on

ready under way for tearing down the
present frame structure on the site to
make way for a modern garage. II. e.
,Fredrickson has branched out his business
by arranging to operate a large garage
and salesroom at Lincoln.
TIL problem OF the show COMMITTEES this
year will be to find room in the Auditorium
for all the dealers who wish to show their
cars and accessories. To provide extra
room It Is arranged to make the display of
commercial vehicles In the basement OF
the Auditorium. This room now has a
good floor and has been made popular by
the government exhibit. which has been
housed there during the corn show. A
plan is also being considered for using the
halls of the second story OF the Audi
forum.
The committee is to follow the plan of
the Madison Square garden show at New
York by expanding a large sum I'm decora-
lions. To do this some OF the splendid
statuary which was used at the garden
show has been secured. Thousands OF
lights will also be provided to make the
auditorium most brilliant.

NEEDFUL CAR ACCESSORIES
Things the MOtOrist should Have to
Keep or the Safe side of
the Road.

There are a great many automobile ac-
cessories the existence of which has only
to be brought to the owners eye to induce
him to use them. Amongst them are num-
bered, too, things that the motorist should
~have-that insure his own safety in addi-
ton to that OF those whom he meets on
the road.
For instance, there is on the market
an adjustable mirror, which enables one
TO have an accurate view 10 the rear Of
S5Ox65 feet, A simple convex ~glass-there Is
nothing complicated about It, yet there are
moments when one wonders how one ever
did without II. There are, however, many
people who are doing without II because
they have never heard OF 1t.
Again, how frequent are the complaints
OF owners that their cars are used without
their knowledge. \ device is now on the
market, however, which makes undetected
Joy rides" impossible. This stopping Of
Illicit spins means a great saving not only
in gasoline, but also In repairs, The
mechanism is very simple; the dial is d.
vided into 100 divisions, and each hours
run will cause the hand TO vibrate q GER
tain number of points forward. These in
struinents, Of course, are high priced, but
they sometimes pay for themselves In a
very short time.
There arc a number Of American and i'm
ported horns on the market now, which,
II only astheticslly, nave a decided ad-
vantage over the old ''honS-honk." Their
cost ranges In proportion TO their size,
and consequently the owner OF a small
machine can pay the moderate price de-
handed for a horn 10 suit his automobile
For the man who uses an scetylene
lamp, there IL nothing more useful than
the modern gas tank. The tanks contain,
according to size and price, from thirty TO
seventy feet OF gas. and need recharging
so seldom that the bother Of carbide, etc,
seems 10 be done away with almost en-
tirely. The initial cost OF the tanks is high
about 500, but the cost Of r%echarging is
only 81.
On the same principle Is the compressed
air tank for Initiating tires. When full, II
contains enough air to fl fifteen tubes
and is no trouble al all to handle on attach.
A pressure gauge should be attached to H..
All tires give better returns when pumped
to the right pressure; most good tires have
a special pressure recommended, as, for
Instance, seventy pounds for the front tire
and eighty for the rear. These figures
are only an example. however. II the

HUNTING WITH MOTOR CAR
SPOFtsmeH on Western FTAiries
Equipped with MOdePn
Appliances,

The automobile is revolutioniEine TINS
method of hunting wild game In western
Kansas. No true sportsman no" starts ~
any kind Of a hunt out there "lthout A"~
auto. The old way Of hunting from a two
horse sprinR wagon is entirely too slow
now.
A wolf hunt undcr the new plan Is the
most exciting Of all. one man runs the
auto and another does the shooting. a ma
chine can run miles and miles on the open
prairie of the west without coming In con
tact with . fence OF a creek. When "A wolf,
or a coyote, as they are called out there,
is scared up the auto takes after him. Now
a wolf runs in an easy circle, He doesn't
dodge back and forth. So II Is COMPARE
lively easy for the driver to keep right be
hind him, But the auto must 90 some. A
coyote can knock Sff thirty miles an hour
with ease. A few days ago some Garden
City hunters ran down a coyote and killed
him with the wheels. That was considered
a great hunting feat.
When hunters used to chase coyotes on
horses and with dogs, there was never a
record Of where they drove the coyotes to
their dens. But II Is different with autos.
Coyotes rug until they are about 10 be
taken IN and then make for their dens. In
order TO smoke them out" the driver at
taches a rubber tube 10 the gas tank OF
his car and runs the other end down Ia
the hole. That soon brings the coyote out.
And the race Is again resumed until the
animal is bagged.
Autos make good blinds for wild duck
shooting, and they also enable sportsmen to
follow up A flock Of ducks from one pond
or slough to another. Frequently the hunt
eTs will take out after a flock Of ducks and
bag several Of them before they get out OF
range from the auto.-Ksnsas City Journal
Omaha daily bee., 1909-12-19
The ola and the New.

The old-fashioned way OF hunting jack
rabbits was for several hunters to go out
In two big lumber wagons. The wagons
would be connected with a piece Of wire
about 200 feet long. This wire dragging
over the ground between the wagons would
stir the Jack rabbits up and the hunters
walking behind the wire would shoot them.
II was not an thing for a bunch
OF hunters to bring in two wagonloads OF
jack rabbits as a result OF one days hunt.
rabbits were sold to a rabbit canneIy
and worked up into canned stuffs for east
ern markets. This is the way rabbits are
sull hunted for the canneries. But the
true sportsmen, who go out for the fun OF
the thing, have a new plan now. They
stay m the auto and snare the rabbits with
a wire l~oop.-Kansas City Journal.
