BEST GUM FOR TIRES
Is OBTAINED IN BRAZIL
This Product Has Tougher Fiber
and Is Much More
Resilient

Although rubber is gathered from all
parts of the tropical and subtropical
world, the best crude gum for tiremak-
ing is found only in western Brazil and
Bolivia. 1t is known as Up-River Para
and is the kind used by the Firestone
Tire and Rubber company in the manu-
facture of tires, in which they are
specialists.
This rubber has a tougher fbe",
greater wear-resisting properties and Is
far more resilient than any other. The
supply of this rubber has been increas-
ing very slightly, only about 10 per cent
a year; on the other hand, the demand
for it has been rapidly multiplying and
will continue to increase, owing to the
output of $4,000 new cars for 1910 and
the demand from 100000 cars now in
use.
The tire manufacturer is confronted
with the fact that the price of the
crude gum has advanced from 81 cents
a pound, two years ago, to So pound
at the present time, and there is
scarcely enough to supply the demand
at the present price. When washed
and dried this gum is worth per ounce
just one-third the market price of
silver.
The advance in price has been con-
tributed to by market manipulation in
the Para market. The Brazilian gov
ernment has loaned money on rubber
up to SO per cent of it's value thus en-
abling the syndicates to hold their
goods off the market and force an ad-
Avance in price. The Brazilian govern
Anent levies 80 per cent export duty, but
las occa sionally remitted part of this
lty in an effort to aid the market
anipulation.
= With these new conditions to contend
TIL, it is no wonder that tire prices
liable to change at any time.

NEW PARK FOR ONTARIO

ONTARIO, Cal, Jan. IA mass
meeting of the citizens of ontario was
held in the city hall last evening to
decide on the location of park for
this city. The park question, fathered
by the chamber of commerce. has
caused considerable discussion among
the taxpayers of the city, consequent
ly there was q large attendance at
the meeting. After some little discus
sion 1t was voted to have two parks,
one on the north side of the city and
one on the south. The tracts as chosen
for the parks are the Moore and Frank
ish. The Moore tract, consisting of ten
acres, along Euclid avenue, midway
between Ontario and Upland. The
Frankish tract, consisting of two and
one-half acres. fronts on Euclid ave-
nue. and extends along the Southern
Pacific railroad.

SAUCER TRACK FIT
FOR MOTORCYCLISTS
Professional Event at the Coliseum
Will Be for the Champion
ship of the
World

Tomorrow afternoon there will be
some exciting work done on the
Coliseum track, when the fast motor
cvcle riders mount their wheels in each
of the classes but especially in the pro-
fessional line, for this contest is for
the worlds championship, and 1t is fully
believed that with the condition of the
saucer track the fastest speed ever
recorded for the century run will be
marked up to the credit of Los An
geles.
The program for tomorrow is of the
classiest nature in both of the amateur
and trade events as well as with the
pros" and as all of the lovers of the
motorcycle sport, with hands ready to
applaud the work of their faVorite
friends.
This afternoon the last of the prac-
tice spins will be had, for the reason
that the management will use barrel
of gasoline to wash down the track
where the oils dripped in practice, and
prevent the machines from slipping
Manager Kramer of the Coliseum will
have the score board in proper opera
ton, scoring the results of the first four
at the end of each ten miles, so that
all may know the exact position of the
riders with their mileage as they roll
off the three and a half laps to the
mile.
Mitchell did some wonderful work
yesterday on the track, and the way his
machine was working was a surprise
to those at the track. His time will
surprise the crowd when they see the
work of this excellent rider.
The Los Angeles railways have ar
ranged a minute schedule for the mo-
torcycle races, via Moneta avenue and
Sixty-fourth street, SO that all may be
properly accommodated The races be-
gin promptly at 2:30 p. m.

LATE DESIGNS AFFORD
PROTECTION TO DRIVER
Automobile Manufacturers Realize
Necessity for lnclosed Front Seats
in DisagreeabIe Weather

The most striking of 1910 tendencies
in the complete automobile is undoubt-
edly the alteration of body shapes.
Builders of bodies have gone far atield
in the effort to produce designs to suit
the admirers of novelty, although, of
course, their work has been in the di-
rection of utility and comfort. The
more general use of the automobile as
an all-the-year-round vehicle has been
tions in body design, and so strongly
have users favored the more recent
styles that in a year or two the entire
appearance of the car may be changed.
The inclosed touring body, described
variously as the torpedo" "gunboat,
or, by the conservative, as fully in
closed,' is the very latest. Heretofore
in both open and covered cars the ef-
fort at protection of occupants has
been confined to the rear, or tonneau,
seats. In front, the driver and his
companion have depended for warmth
in inclement weather on robes or blan-
kets, an unsatisfactory barrier against
cold, since the working of the foot
levers makes it impossible to keep these
coverings in place.
Whatever the ultimate design, the OBJ
ject of the inclosed touring body IS
admirable and the early types are cred
table. Apart from the added comfort,
the innovation adds greatly to the racy
appearance of car, so much desired
by the average automobilist, whether
his machine is speedyNor not. That the
new type of body will appeal to pro-
ducers of low priced cars is considered
improbable.
In limousine bodies the height of lux
ury appeared to have been attained
some time ago, but there are innova-
tions even in these for the trade of 1910.
What they consist of remains to be
seen. The changes have taken the form
of improvements in springing, with
slight alterations in the position of
seats and other inside fittings intended
to afford increased comfort

DEMOUNTABLE RIMS
GROWING IN FAVOR
NEW DEVICE HANDY ON ALL
OCCASIONS
No Initiating of Tires When Puncture
Is Encountered on Road Neces-
sary with Latest
Patent

"Demountable rims are growing In
favor with motorists. They offer ad-
vantages, not only in racing but in
every day service and touring" says
James A, Braden of the Diamond
Rubber company.
And it is true that many of the large
tire manufacturers are pushing de-
mountable rims for this season. By
1911 such equipment will be very com
mon. 1t means, in substance, fresh
tire any time 1t is needed and with
no hard work. The demountable rim
goes a step farther than the quick de-
tachable rim.
Suppose" said the Diamond tire
man, "you find yourself on the road
with a punctured tire, but your car
is equipped with demountable rims
your extra tire will be pumped up
ready for running. Theirs nothing to
do but remove the damaged tire, rim
and all, of course.
Jack up the wheel With socket
wrench unscrew the nuts on the bolts
in the felloe, loosening the wedges in
the same operation. Pull the tire to-
ward you, rim and all, and let the
valve stem drop out of its hole in the
felloe.
ITO put on the fresh tire which, you
understand, is carried all inflated and
ready on your extra rim, slip its valve
stem through the hole in the felloe, and
the rim slides easily to place upon the
wheel. Put the wedges over the felloe
bolts. apply the nuts, screw up tight
and go ahead.
Simple, isn't it?
'No sort of hard work, and the time
occupied is almost less than it takes
to tell it,"

lat the small car is going ahead
- fast will be emphasized this year
he great number of popular priced
cleS of all types placed on display
lght out to appeal to the man of
crate means, the success of cars
ling in price from $500 to $500 has
phenomenal in the last two or
q years. They are being produced
ae tens of thousands and find
.rTuy sale in all parts of the country.
u Meanwhile, the makers of the more
expensive cars are enjoying greater
prosperity than ever before in the
history of the industry. The demand
at this time for 1910 cars has COM
PEELED nearly all manufacturers to ar
range for production up to the limit of
capacity for several months. 1t is evil
dent, therefore, that the users of the
small car have not been drawn from
the ranks that supported it's competi-
tors, and that a steady call for luXur-
ious models can always be depended
upon.
In what so closely approximates the
finality of design that will be disclosed
in the cars for next year there are
many features that have been part of
the automobile since the early days of
the industry. Many of the basic prin-
ciples of construction We're grasped by
the earliest constructors and have been
retained from year to year as the most
logical in automobile design.
Some important features however
have been developed through use and
have become practically universal.
Chief among these are the shaft drive
which is SO general that barely one per
cent of the cars is equipped with the
chai'-, and magnetic ignition, which
has very rapidly displaced the bat
terry method in the last two years. The
percentage of 1910 cars that are mag
neto equipped is very high. The
tendency in this direction has been ac-
celebrated by the production of reliable,
low-priced magnetos, although, as in
other lines of the trade, high price re-
mains synonymous with the highest
efficiency.

Free Raw Material Means Free Trade


You say you would be inclined to
vote for free raw material. but would
continue the duty on manufactured
articles. Follow that idea out and see
where 1t will lead you Everything
that you have to buy in order to have
something to sell IL raw material to
you. and everything that your neigh.
Dor buys from you in order TO sell is
raw material to him. although 1t may
be a manufactured product to you. II
you manufacture watches the watch
you sell IL raw material to the man
who has to buy 1t in order to be pune
tual at his job. The knife butcher
uses in order to cut meat is as much
raw material to him as are the cattle
he kills. just as meat itself il raw ma
terial to the man who. by eating 1t. is
ena bled to sell the strength of his mus
cles in the labor market. Raw mate
rial. then, is what we have to buy, and
the manufactured article Is what we
have to sell. And as our whole in
dustrial life is nothing but system
of reciprocal buying and selling it fol-
lows that there is nothing made but
what Is raw material in the proper
sense. Therefore free raw material"
fully and consistently carried out
means free trade.
