. Discusses "City Beautiful"
The average citizens conception of the
"oity beautiful was ridiculed by Arnold
w. Drummer, president of the New York
Chapter American Institute of Archi-
tects, at the afternoon session yesterday.
ITO the average citizen the city beat
tiful' suggests the city impossible, de-
vised by the man impractical" he said.
This dislocated adjective has been the
cause Of much terrified misrepresentation,
and boards of aldermen and city treas
urers are apt to believe that it means an
attempt to tie pink bows on the lamp
posts. Great extravaganza is feared. and
at least q general disturbance or buSl-
ness is anticipated.

Stop Listen!

The Saco Mercantile Company has
the agency for the Hart-Parr Co.
Traction Engines. Our territory ex-
tends from the west side of the Fort
Peck Indian Reservation to Malta.
In 1908 the first Hart-Parr Tractors
were placed on the market. They
were successful from the beginning
and demonstrated that gasoline trac-
tors could do the work Of steam
tractor, and were just as dependable
and considerably more economical.
The first years output was scattered
over five different states and since
that time each years sales have
so far exceeded those of the previous
year that at the close OF 1908
season, 900 Hart-Parr tractors were
in use, scattered through every
large grain growing state from the
Great Lakes to California, and
many have been exported to Argen.
tina, the Hawaiian and PHILIPPINE
Islands. That the great majority
of ras tractors thus far offer ed have
been failures is candidly admitted.
The question may be asked, why
the Hart-Parr Tractors have been
such a CONSPICUOUS success while
other attempts have been failures.
and the answer to this question
will be found in the following
facts: In the first place the design
ers of the Hart Parr engines are all
educated engineers. Secondly, be-
fore designing their first tractors they
had several years experience in the
operation of steam tractors and thus
knew from practical experience the
exacting service required of traction
engines and how they should be
built to meet it. Further, the en-
gines used on the Hart-Parr tractors
are designed especially for heavy
traction engine service, all other de-
signers either use an ordinary station
airy gasoline engine mounted on a
traction truck and this combination
is called gasoline tractor. This is
contrary to all good mechanical teach
ing.
The present craze for high speed,
lightly constructed, four-cylinder
automobile type motors for heavy
traction service has resulted and will
continue to resulted in disaster.
Such engines are extremely short
lived, and are no more fitted for such
service than the single cylinder, open
type engines that have been used on
SO many previous failuers in this line.
There are only 1900 Hart-Parr
|. Traction engines made for this
seasons output, and 500 of this num-
Der were sold by January lst, 1910.
If you are in the market for gas
oline tractor don't delay. Get in
and avoid the big rush. When you
buy a Hart-Parr tractor you buy ex-
perience, not an experiment. Write
if you can't come.

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
FOUND IN LOUISIANA

In boring for oil at Monroe, Louisiana,
recently, the accidental discovery OF "a
wonderful well of salt water was made
which is,said TO possess marvellous prop.
critics. From the same well with the
immense volume of water, is IA flow OF
natural gas approximating 10000 feet
daily.
To utilize the water a concrete Nat.
atorium has been erected and the gas
flowing from the same pipe is used for
illumination. Aside from the novelty
the mixture of the gas and water seems
TO produce particularly beneficial ef.
feets, and many persons variously IA.
flicted claim results little short of mir.
aculous.
Whether the emanatious of radium
which the water seems TO contain or
the inauguration Of the salt which is
held in solution in large quantities are
alone responsible, is not known but that
those who drink the water and battle in
the pool are affected beneicially ian.
not be doubted. Elderly persons of
the utmost dignity disport themselves
like youngsters and absorb the youthful
mein which is a source Of amazemcnt
TO onlookers.
Careful ANALYSES are being made by
Scientists and ii seems possible that
