TREAT CAR RIGHT;
UPKEEP COST LIGHT
Auto Man Says an Automobile Should
BE Treated as Well rs a Horse
by the Owner.

"The upkeep cost Of a motor car de-
ponds upon the car You buy and how
you treat it." says NJ. L Burlxhead, an
Ell Paso dealer. THE average man who
has never owned a motor car has an
exaggerated idea of the cost Of up
keep.
How many times have you heard the
expression, I can afford to buy car,
but I could not afford to run one. The
speaker is invariably someone who has
owned a poor car or abused good one
or has not owned any car.
IF you would minimize the upkeep,
the car must be right in the first place
I do not mean that it must be expen-
sive. For the man with limited means,
an expensive car is out of the question
he cannot afford to buy 1T nor can
he afford to maintain it.
Then there is the very low-priced
car 1t is probably worth every cent
you pay for it, but you get Just what
you buy-a low priced car.
TT is the car of medium price that
is undoubtedly the best buy from the
standpoint of upkeep. All you buy
over a medium price is luxury Luxury
adds upkeep cost If you buy a cheap
car, there is something lacking that
ought to be in the car and that some
thing is probably quality. Again the
cost of maintenance goes up
Just as important as buying the
right car. is treating the car right
Take the family horse. He has been
a pet for Is or 20 years and you are
still driving him. He has been faith
full and kind. If some men had owned
that horse he would have been broken
down and ugly, and a few years would
have finished him Fast driving, too
heavy loads and lack of proper care will
do it.
TT is the same with a motor car
Buy a good car in the first place, then
don't abuse if Make il the family net
Learn how to take care Of it; keep it
clean, well fabricated and drive it care
fully. You viii be surprised how long
it will serve you and how little the
cost Of upkeep will be-
IF you see a mean-acting horse, you
may be pretty sure that he has had a
mean driver. When you see a mean
acting automobile, If it is a good make,
you may be fairly sure it has had in
different care and handling"

which, if properly carried out should
minimize the upkeep cost of automo-
biles. He says the best advice he can
give recent purchaser of an automo-
bile is to learn his car.
Among his suggestions are the fol-
lowing:
See that the gasoline tank contains
there IS plenty OF oil in the crank case I;
that the radiator is filled with water,
ana that the tires are properly inflated
Inspect fan belt, cooler hose con-
nections, wiring to magnetic, coil and
spark plugs. Oil the valve stems and
push rods Inspect oil pump and fit
tings for possible leaks.
Screw down grease cups on front
springs and front axle. See that the
nuts on the spring bolts are tight Keep
the spring clip nuts tight Give grease
cup on steering gears housing a turn
or two.
Remove floor boards and oil gear
shifting mechanism, clutch and brake
mechanism. Screw down grease cups
leather and if dry apply neatsfoot oil
Screw down grease cups over propeller
tread bearing. Oil cIevis pins
Screw down grease cups on rear
springs and see that spring bolt nuts
are tight. Inspect transmission and
differential housing for loose nuts or
bolts. Examine the brakes and screw
rear axle.
Fill lamps when necessary. Inspect
body bolts and fender bolts Fill grease
cups with good grade of medium
weight grease. Keep the wheel rims
free from mud and sharp edges"

Formerly some zoo cars were owned

to be not considered. The prices run

partment by spending $1,000,00 for mo-

periments has determined as the most
rapid and effective system of collect

sum has already passed the house or

obtain the machines for various large
cities to facilitate the collection of
mail The motorcycle, as tested by
the government is equipped with an
chute where mail can be dropped in
and a hopper bottom where it can be
dropped out at the postoffice-

MANY FARMERS TO BUY
AUTOMOBILES THIS YEAR

The general consensus of opinion
among automobile dealers in the west
is that more motor cars will go into
the hands of farmers throughout the
west the coming season than any two
previous seasons together. Crops have
been especially good and the people in
the country districts are realizing more
and more the advantages of the auto
mobile on the farm, not only as a
means of pleasure, but for practical
service as well, where time and labor
is valuable.
As one farmer recently put it, his car
cost less and accomplished more for
him that his hired man.
