AEROPLANES SERVE

French Naval Officer Says Craft

NJ Fabre, on Lake de Barre, in Pro-

plane which rises from the water. His
machine actually does rise very grace

USES HIS AUTOMOBILE
TO TRANSPORT HIS cow

Probably the palm for ingenuity for
the uses to which motor cars are put
would unanimously be voted to Arthur
Wheeler. He recently purchased a COW
in Syracuse, n. Y, and thereupon de-
cidcd to transport his new purchase to
his farm at Cleveland, n. Y, in his
franklin car. The tonneau of the
Franklin was removed, and in its place
was built small stall. With the as
sistance Of two other men, he put the
cow into the stall and tied it so that
no harm could come TO 1T during the
journey of thirty-fo miles The trip
was made in one hour and a half, over
roads deep with sand which surrounds
Oneida lake. The car used was a 1906
twenty-four horse power Franklin, and
had already been run over 100000 miles
since it left the Franklin factory. The
little ear made every hill on the route
on the high speed and upon reaching
the farm was backed against a high
terrace In front of the farm house, and
without any trouble the cow was backed
from its stall to the terrace, and led
away to It's new pasture. Wheeler was
so pleased with his success that the next
day he bought two calves and decided
10 take them home in the same way
As the rack which he had used for car
rying the COW had been removed from
tho car, he loaded the calves in the
front seat, held their heads with one
hand and drove the car with the other,
while another man beside him kept the
animals from falling out A few days
later Wheeler went to Syracuse and
took home with him in his car bed
which he had purchased. He says that
the farmers along the route from Syra-
euse to Cleveland are not surprised at
anything he may pass along the road
with In his car. He said speaking of
his car: "There never was better
car than my old 1905 Franklin, and 1
guess it IS good for another 100000
miles,

DON'T MORTGAGE HOME
TO BUY AN AUTOMOBILE

Are too many Of the inhabitants Of
the United States buying automobilesf 7
Has the popularity of the motor car
reached a stage where it can be said
TO threaten the financial stability OF
tho nation9
Is it true that men have been mort
gaging their homes and farms to pur-
chase motor cars, as one or two bank"
ers in Kansas have assorted?
These are questions of particular in
terest in motoring circles. Also are
questions of vital Importance to the
manufacturing industry.
President Walter Z. Flanders, Of the
EMF company, in Detroit. has been
exceedingly fortunate in predicting mar
ket conditions since his connection with
the industry, in which his company Is
one of the most prominent figures.
He points to the fact that the EMF
company is now building an addition
to its main plant, which will more than
double its floor space, as evidence of
his belief in the stability Of the indus
try on the whole and the continuance

"There are, and always will be, a
lot of gossips-some of them male, too
who will be perniciously interested
in the affairs of their neighbors,' said
Mr.. Flanders. "An accomplished male
gossip Will accumulate and spread lot
of misinformation, particularly regard

has been one of the greatest advan-
tages of the industry.

BUILDERS TOO BUSY
TO SUBMIT PLANS
More Work In Sight Than Can Be
Accomplished In One Season,
They Say.

Detroit building contractors are
facing a situation said TO be unpre
cedented in Detroit, even in It's mosl
fiourishing periods of the past They
complain that so great is the rush oi
work that they cannot find time tt
figure all the plans submitted foi
their consideration. In tact. many OF
them already have more work in sight
than they can take care OF in one sea
son it is simply another Illustration
OF Detroit's remarkable expansion.
The scarcity Of labor is an element
In this situation. Ii men were plentl
full. the contractors would be able "a
take on small jobs here and there that
they hesitate To shoulder now, lest
they be unable 10 carry out their con
tracts. Many workmen have been I'M
ported from other cities. much against
the protests of the latter. but still
there is shortage
Still another factor in the situation
is a shortage of common brick. The
big local brick manufacturers who
operate all the year around are un-
able to keep up with orders by work
ing full capacity while the summer
o. outdoor yards. i'm the outlying dis
tricts, have been held back by the
rainy weather OF the past few weeks
as they depend on the sun for drying
ont their products.
A few days of warm, dry weather
will solve the brick problem. but,
while relief in this direction would
enable the contractors TO proceed
with work that is being held up 1t viii
not stop the influx OF new work.
Contractors in outside cities, which
are not developing as rapidly as De
troit, are becoming interested in the
local situation and are reaching Out
for some of the business the home
contractors cannot take care Of Mr..
Moore, of the Moore Mansfield Con
struction Co. one Of the biggest firms
of its kind in Indianapolis, is in the
city with n view 10 establishing 4
branch Office here. and. IL IS said, al
ready has lined up two or three GOO
sized jobs. The local blildcrs arc I'M
clined to welcome outsiders, for in 10
other way can all the building plan
ned for the coming year be finished
The conditions described probably
explain why ground has not been
broken for the great plants OF the
General Motors CO.. and the oz'er

that work on both plants will be I'M
