KULICK AND HIS FORD ssT'

Frank Kulick and his Ford Model ''T'' were the sensations of the big Mardi Gras speed carnival at New Orleans, according to returning De- troiters. Kulick and his 20 horsepow- CT car won no less than five firsts and a number of other places, in cluding two seconds.
 The Ford pilot on the mile track of the Crescent City Jockey Club de- feated all except Wild Bob" Burman his great 100 horse power Buick Spe- ciat, while Bragg had his 90 horse power Fiat.
 7 The first days races saw Kulick win three firsts and second, the lat ter being in the 10-mile handicap where he was given but a few yards lead on Burnan who started scratch. Wild Bob' drove his widest and was only able to defeat the 20 horse power car by three seconds. Ku- lick kept the great crowd on its feet with his daring on the corners. The went to Kulick in a Walk-away. He also won the one hour race with a distance of 55s miles, dashing in and out among the big cars and aggravat- ing rival drivers into a frenzy.
 The best event of the Saturday af- all in which Kulick and the Ford. Burman in his five times bigger Buick, Bragg in his Fiat, Disbrow and Aitken in the big Nationals were entered. It was a thriller. It took the two big cars to beat Kulick and they had to smash record, doing the five miles in 4:40:17.
 In the 10-mile handicap on Satur- day, Kulicks work in almost beating the 100 horse power mount of Bur man caused him to be the boogie of all the entrants.
 The light 20 horse power Ford nev- CT had it's hood lifted during the ra- ces- only at night to go through a tightening up process. At the com pletion of the .three-day carnival it was in perfect running order. ku- lick attained a speed of ST miles per hour at times during the meet.

RUBBER TIRES OUTWEAR IRON.

Rubber tires, if they are of the proper weight, will outwear by far those of iron or steel'' said M. J. Hammers, General Manager of the Abbott Motor Co.,, of Detroit, who through long years of experience in the building of both carriages, vehi
 cles, and automobiles has conducted many experiments as to the life of tires made of iron, rubber and fibre. 'FWho ever heard" said MT. Ham mers, "of any iron tire on a wagon or a buggy or any other vehicle except an automobile standing up for 15.000 to 10000 miles of continuous ser vice? Yet that is no unusual service or mileage for rubber tires over the

SURGEON TALKS MoToRCYCLING

T That motorcycling contributes to the riders health, and that it is about as dangerous as a game of plng-pong with Cousin Alice. are the firm opin- ions of Dr. Fred Wise, a motorcycle physician of New York City.
 Speaking seriously, and from per sonal experience" says Dr. Wise, ''motorcycling, as a pastime and a sport, is decidedly healthful. One question leads naturally to another: the proposition? Well, compared with aeroplaning, footballing and po- To playing, it is about as dangerous to life and limb as is playing a game of ping-pong witfr Cousin Alice on a rainy Sunday afternoon.
 'I can positively state that the in- come of the practicing surgeons in this country has not materially in creased since motorcycling has come into vogue. Whereas it is a curious but undeniable fact that many a tam CT sport has caused many doctor to look more cheerfully and optimistical- l. ly on the broad vistas of life and to be not unpleased at his choice of professions"
 Dr. Wise says vibration is one of the greatest blessings medicine has at it's disposal He declares that the vibration caused by riding a motor cycle is slight. but that it is beneficial
 'The vibration is neither unpleas- ant nor severe, nor deleterious; on the contrary, what little vibration there is, is beneficial to the ordinary person. he says:
 ''How does motorcycle vibration contribute to the health of the rid er? In plain words, it mildly stim- ulates the normal functions of the body. It stimulates the circulation of the organs that are constantly bathed by these fluids. This mild stimulation, combined with the exhi1- aration both mental and physical, in duced by the outdoor air, the change of scenery the rapid progress of the machine itself-and so on ad infini- tum-all these factors make for the conservation of the riders health and !,

who uses it as a family conveyance.
 The news from Washington that the Federal automobile license bill has been reported faborably by the Com mittee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce has caused feelings of the liveliest satisfaction among motorists, throughout the country, as shown by favorable public and press comments. Although the bill still has a long way to go-that is to say, to pass the House and the Senate, and then to come to the President for signature MT. Terry points out this is the great est progress yet made by any such measure. None before this has ever been reported.
 F.. c. Belden, a. farmer of Suffield, Conn.,, owns an automobile for which he has number of uses. The recent heavy snowstorms had little effects upon the service given by MT. Belden' 8 runabout, for he equipped the car runners, so that it ran with ease in twelve inches of snow. He took off the two front wheels, from which the tires had been removed, and bolted on a pair of 30 inch wooden rims, set with steel runners, in their place. Dur ing the storms the car has been oper- ated in connection with his laundry work in which he has half-interest, to collect and deliver all the family laundries in Suffield, Windsor Locks, Warehouse Point and West Sheffield.
 TOUCHING SNOW BY AUTO.
 An automobile snow plough was in troduced in New York during re- cent snow storm in that city and at tracted considerable attention as it worked clearing away the snow in Broadway. The plough device was worked by a sixty-horsepower self dumping seven-ton Mack truck. It is steel-faced scraper, or plough, which was attached to the front of the truck and could be raised or low cred at the will of the driver. It was used as an experiment in way, but was revelation to the snow re- mOval contractors, who in letter to the Mack people declared that as a snow-plough it was worked in two nine-hour shifts and did the work of 200 men working ten hours, while as a truck it carried more snow than eight two-horse teams.
 Under ordinary circumstances a motor truck is supposed to take the place of three trucks but, as in the deep snow the horse-drawn wagons could carry only half a load at one third of the speed of the motor truck, with it's self-dumping attachment, the contractors figure that it saved them $500 a day.

FIRST AUTO BUILT
 IN PHILADELPHIA.

In little shop at 216 St. James St. which is still standing, Oliver Evans, familiarity known to most Americans as the father of American milling. drew the plans for a steam propelled vehicle and in 1904 he constructed a five horse power. machine which he ran from his other shop at the cor her of Vine St., and Ridge Road, to the Schuylkill, full mile and a half. The machine that Evans built weigh ed about two tons and made a speed of 1-2 miles per hour and may be considered to be the first automobile. AS early as 1775, when but IS years old, Evans constructed the first high pressure steam engine ever built, the same principle which is used to-day on all locomotives. In 1906 Evans submitted proposition to the Lan- caster Turnpike Company, in which he offered to build at low cost steam carriage to carry 100 barrels of flour fifty miles in twenty-four hours. He also demonstrated that such a steam carriage would make more net profits than ten ive-horse wagons on a gooo road. But little or no attention was paid to him, and the carriage was never built

FIGHT FOR 44.444.

A fight for license number 4,444 recently precipitated more political wire pulling in California than the recent state elections. Norman E. Doane, Pullman owner, had a greater political "pull'' than 200 oth- ramento Star has the following to say about the incident:
 'The keen, not to say frenzied, competition of more than 200 auto mobile owners for possession of the coveted auto license number 44,444. just issued, made it a matter of po- litical patronage, raised it into the realm of important things and came near breaking up several long standing friendships.
 Norman E. Doane was the man who pulled the string that dropped the prize. His was the strongest po- litical drag He shows the tag Victoria cross was displayed by an old warrior.
 Doane put in his application for li- cense No 44,444 last fall while Cur ry was still Secretary of State. 1T thought I had the ways all greased," said Doane, until Jordan took Cur ry5s place. I knew it would take a desired number, and I began to pull 'em. So did others-about 200 of them.
 Secretary of State Jordan suddenly saw possibilities in the issuance of li- cense tag No. 44,444. It could be made a pawn in the game of politics. He took personal charge of that par he thought it would do the most good
