GO $40 MILES IN "a

Prescott. Ariz, Oct. 1S.-From Long
Beach to Prescott, a distance of $40
miles in "a hours running time is the
record made by W. 5. TOIbard, his son.

, properly. There seems to be a spit-back
through the carburetor when running
faster than Il or Is miles per hour. The
carburetor has been adjusted to the
best results that can be got out
, of it. The motor is a single cylinder
four horse power. L have had several
men to work on 1t; but they have not
remedied the trouble, and it wastes
the gasoline by blowing it back
through the carburetor. I have re-
tarded and advanced the spark and
cannot get any results. While running
on the spark the motor runs about
seven miles per hour and Will stop

weakened.-S. H Sproles.
1t appears that the spring of the
automatic valve is too weak It is also
possible that the valve stem binds in
the guide. The spring of the auto
matte valve must be accurately gagged,
otherwise good results cannot be OBJ
tanned. Would suggest that you install
new valve spring. If this does not
remedy the trouble then install a whole
new valve cage. The timing of the eX-
also be carefully checked. If the tim
ing of the exhaust valve has been de-
ranged, this in itself would be SUI
ficient to upset the working of the mo-
tor.

viii you inform me as to the method
of computing the horse power of a
motor when the piston stroke and
cylinder bore are given?-H. Ladd
The A L. A. NJ. formula generally
used by states while granting licences
is obtained by squaring the cylinder
bore multiplied by the number of cyl
inders and divided by the constant 2.5.
The formula you desire which takes
into consideration the piston stroke
you will find in "The Gasoline Auto
mobile" by Heldt, volume one, chapter
II, page S62. The book may be had
at public libraries This reference is
given to avoid error in printing the
formula. The average formula does
not go into sufficient detail to give
the accurate horse power.

Foreign Buyers Actually Pay a
Premium for Hupmobiles

1t costs foreign buyer 500 to $500 more to
own a HuPmobile than it does the more
fortunate American owner. The only
reason in the world why the European
buyer viii do this Is because he firmly be-
lieves-as we do-that the Hupmobile is
the best car Of its class In the world.

What Europe Demands in the Motor
Cars It Buys
Foreign buyers have an x-ray fashion Of look
ing right through the ezternals and to the
heart of a car. They demand the pains
taking craftsmanship of the highly skilled
artisan. They see In the HuDmobile a
marked individuality which IS the natural
outgrowth of the internal excellence Of its
construction.

on the conviction that it is the best car of It's
class in the world.
The new Hupmobile is polished, and refined, and
strengthened and beautified to point that sur
passes every previous standard.
It has earned its conquest of the old and the new
world-it has justified its right to be compared
to the CoStlieSt large cars as "a perfect small

Why Europe Places the Hupmobile
in a Special, Trusted Class
Foreign buyers Of American cars are the most
critical purchasers In the world. They
have been taught to distrust American
shop practice, which too often seeks guam
tity at the cost Of quality. But European
buyers of Hupmobiles attest, by their loyal
y to this car, their absolute confidence In
the methods we employ.
HuPmobile Standards Are Continental
Standards as Well
Undoubtedly the first appeal of the Hupmo-
bile to the shrewd Continental buyer, was
based upon his prompt recognition of con-
structive features of the highest class. He
noted with approval the long-stroke, small
bore motor with cylinders cast en- bloc, and
having enclosed valves-a type we introduc-
ed to the American market two years ago.
Features Never Before Shown at
Anything Near Our Price
The use of full-hoating rear axle IN the Hup-
mobile was a pleasurable surprise to the
British buyer. He found in keeping with
It's quality our unit power plant with null
6ple disc clutch; three-bearing crank shaft,
followed for circulation Of oil; and chain
drive for magnetic and cam shaft.

Increased Value'in HupmObile
Equipment
Neither in Europe or America Is there car
at anything near the Hupmobile's price
which is so thoroughly modern in its
appointments. The 1914 Hupmobile at
Sl2OO has oversize tires-33 4inch with
demountable rims, one extra rim and rear
tire carrier; and electric horn beneath hood,
actuated from steering wheel.
The 1914 HupmobileT Has Been
Given More Headroom
A feature Of more than minor comfort Is the
high, rOOmy top which distinguishes the
1914 Hupmobilc. This has been attained
without any straining of the Hupmobile's
originally fine proportions, so that its pas
sengers are given greater ease, without any
detraction from the HuPmobie's individu-
atty Of form.
The Three-Unit Electrical System is
Both Safe and Logical
The English buyer, who always puts safety
first, viii be quick to see the value of the
HuPmobile's thTee-unit electrical system
which individualizes the operations of
starting, igniting and lighting. Possible
trouble In one unit cannot cripple the other
two vitality important functions Of this
system, whose logic is beyond argument.

To Grenada County Farmers.

l beg to again call your attention to
the section harrow as an implement for
use in the early cultivation of field
crops, such as cotton, corn, potatoes,
beans. sorghum, etc.
Those of you who have carried out
the instructions of this Office, with ref
erence to the proper repeated use of
this most economical tool, will now be
IN q position to appreciate what it has
done at so small a cost.
Following the showers that we are
now having, the fields should be rapidly
stirred, with the harrow teeth slanting
slightly backwards, and in the case of
cotton which is up to a stand, the hoes
should be started Immediately after the
harrow, bringing the cotton to one
stalk in a place, leaving the plants
from eight to twelve inches apart in
the drill.
Where nitrogen has not been applied
at or before planting, it will pay to use
chopped out. suggest that either so
pounds nitrate of soda or 200 pounds of
cottonseed meal, to the acre, be used.
Apply broadcast in the middles and
mix well with the top inch of the soil.
Early as well as late cultivation
should consist of merely stirring the
soil to a depth of an inch or two, and
in no case should the soil be either
drawn away from or thrown to the
plants, neither is so-called root prun-
ing to be advised.
. All of the above matters, with many
others, will be discussed in detail at
the field schools which | shall hold thru
out my territory. You are earnestly
urged to be present at these schools
and to have your tenants aud troopers
attend them. Notices will be sent out
later, giving dates and locations, and
every land owner and farmer should
make it his business to see that the
schools are we'll attended.
