LONG JOURNEY in
HAYNESAU7OMOBILE

A tour Of between 5000 and 1000
miles has just been completed by j. T.
Baldwin from ST Paul. Mimi, to Port
land, Ore, in his Haynes car Baldwin,
whose experience as an automobile
driver was limited to about $500 miles,
over which he had taken his Haynes
previous to his westward trip, drove the
whole distance from Minnesota to Ore
gon by himself. He was accompanied
by his wife and two children.
Practically every condition of going
was encountered. Once or twice. be-
the road map, the party took the wrong
road few times they found them
selves on no roads at all. A full camp
ing outfit, carried for emergencies, al
ways gave them a feeling of security,
no matter where the way led.
Leaving st. Paul, Baldwin drove first
to Chica goland from there took a west
ward course through Kansas City, Den
yer and Salt Lake City to Sacramento,
whence the road leading over the Sis
kiyou mountains into Oregon was fol-
lowed.
Besides the absolutely perfect running
of the car the most nota BILE feature of
the trip was the service given by the
Diamond tires that equipped the ma
chine. Having done $500 miles previous
to the trip, three of them reached the
journeys end with over 5000 miles to
their credit

The motor Is OF the Speedwell type.

AS to the strength and power Of this

Lynch. in speaking Of the car, said
that no radical changes had been made
as it had been impossible to find any
thing that needed changing. but that
few reinements had been thought Of
and wrought into the 1911 models The
Bosch dual magnetic system, which has
given such excellent service on the 1910
models, is again used on the 1911 cars,

OVERLAND LITTLE
RUNABOUT POPULAR

The new model 45 Overland, which
was received by ]. W. Leavitt & Co.
last week, has been most favorably
received. The cars are considered to
be among the most attractive that have
been offered this season. They have
proved to have lots of power, and fill a
position that has long been open for a
low priced. good quality car of the
lines of this Overland runabout There
is no question that the company will
not be able to get enough of these cars
to fill the demand in this city and from
out of town agents.

maritan?' is the question which F. r.

feed and your car is out of the con-
test as result 1t makes you think"
The Kansas rains made mud knee
from ideal for automobiling. a big
40 horsepower touring car skfdded in
the ditch and was mired UP to the
aXles. Pendleton came along driving
Cartercar No. 30, but instead of look
ing the opposite direction. saw his fe1-
low tourist stuck deep and dozen men
trying to push the car out. He offered
a tow and it was gladly accepted.
His Cartercar was sunk in mud six
inches deep and he did not have chains
ON the tires. To afford traction eight
men were loaded into the car and the
big machine was pulled out Every
body complimented the Cartercar and
thought it wonderful that the friction
transmission would pull SO steadily
and hard.
But the sequel was different Fur
ther on the Cartercar itself sank deep
in the mud The friction transmission
was just as effective in helping itself,
but something occurred which few
automobilists had ever heard of hap
pening before. The key which holds
the differential to the axle was COM
pletely sheared off by the tremendous
steady pull of the friction, and this put
Pendleton out of the contest.
At machine shop a the next town
it was stated that a force of at least
100000 pounds must have been applied
in order to cut the pure steel as clean
as had been done.
