MOTOR CAR AND
FARM DEVELOPMENT
The Automobile Has Done More Than
Anything to Educate, Elevate and
Entertain Country Folks.

a
Anything TO Educate, Elevate and
Entertain Country Folks.
Before the coming Of the motor car,
il was a common occurrence for a
farmer and his family, living 20 or 50
miles from the railroad, TO spend their
entire lives cOOped up in their own lit
tie circle, with little or no knowledge
Of the big things going on all around
them
than ever before. in the history OF the
world. He is nc longer looked upon as
a mere producer OF food stuffs, neceS-
sary for the general welfare Of the
country, but as an important citizen
And the automobile is largely re-
sponsible for the present high standing
Of the farmer. With il he can get into
the big cities where he can see and
lind out what other people are dOlnS
and keep pace with their progress
There is, too, another angle that must
not be overlooked. and that is the au-
tOmObile is the one source Of pleasure
for the farmers entire family. All ap-
preclaCe a change Of scenery once in q
while, and the general atmosphere and
customs of the city peoples are as in
terestlng to the farmer and his FAMILY
as the open farm country is to city
folks.
BY travelling about more and more
and rubbing shoulders with the differ
ent people. the farmer has acquired q
vast amount of knowledge. He has
brOadened his perspective and learned
by experience that he can combine a
little pleasure with the routine Work
as much in net results as before Here
again you find the automobile the best
suited both from an economical anu
practical standpoint

DiehI The width Of tires is one OF the
important factors in highway cOnstruc-
tiOn and maintenance Narrow Ilres-

ruts in improved roads and in many IN
stances. where the roads are weak,
break through the surface with the
subsequent rapid destruction OF the
zone great difficulty in enforcing
Wide tire ordinances with nOrSeQrdWu
vehicles has been that while less trac-
ton is required with wide tires, on
slippery clay or billy roads II is very
difficult in wet weather to manage a
hOrsedraWn Vc1lcIe with wide tires, OW-
ing TO its tendency to skid and slide
I. into the bitches Instances are ire
Quent where in a journey a farmer must
drive over miles OF slippery road ana
only have a few miles of improved
highway in which case he would natur-
ally prefer to use narrow tires for the
entire distance, rather than to attempt
the use of wide tires over the slippery
section Of the road.
There is no question that protection
and economical maintenance OF I'M
proved highways require that narrow
tires should be discarded, ana Ordl-
nances must be enforced which VIII
prevent their use on main Travelled
highways which have been improved at
great expense. If a vehicle owner de-
sires to use narrow tire wagons on
slippery roads. he must be absolutely
prevented from using the same tires on
I improved roads
"Another traffic factor which should
be the subject of uniform legislation or
regulation. is the carrying of lights
on vehicles at night Nearly all auto
mobile laws require front and rear
lights on motor driven vehicles. In some
of the more pOpulOus sections, such as
New York and Connecticut, many driV-
ers of Horses use lights, without the
legal requirement as matter OF SELF
protection. With the travel on the
roads constantly increasing there is no
reason why lives and property should
be endangered by absence OF lights on
any class Of vehicles

There are 1912 motor cars in Mari
copa county and many OF them are

HELPFUL HINTS TO
MOTOR CAR OWNERS.
: 3 8 : : : : : : : $ 5 : :

Though the habit of starting a mo q
tor with sudden roar and tnen rush
ing back to the throttle lever to slow
il down is quite common, it is by nc
means good practice, either from the
point OF view Of the motor itself or OF
the persons who are forced TO listen
TO the racket. If the motor refuses to
start easily with the throttle only
partly open, the difficulty can be sur
mounted by giving the crank a turn
or two with the throttle wide open and
the ignition switched off and then
cranking with the throttle partly
closed and the ignition on The idea
is simply that the first turn fills the
cylinders with good rich gas and
leaves the motor ready to start readily
when the spark passes the gap
When washing out a filter, such as
an oil filter, care should be taken TO
pass the gasoline or other washing
fluid through the wire gauze IN the
direction opposite the normal flow OF
oil through the device. The reason
for this is that If gasoline is passed
through in the same direction as the
oil il viii probably leave particles OF
fluff, OF other substance that might
have been caught. sticking just where
they were, while washing In the oppO
site direction would dislOdge them.
y
Oil in tires is a thing to be avoided.
One way is not TO put any oil on the
plunger OF a hand tire pump Rather
use dry graphite in small quantities.
Even too much graphite is TO- be
avoided, because Of the possibility Of
clogging the valve.
In order to become familiar with the
location and feel" of the lever it Is
advisable for motorists TO use the
emergency brake occasionally in ordl-
nary work. This is suggested so that
in the event of an emergency there
viii be no fumblins in using it. Al
so this occasional use viii reveal when
the brake is out of order.
While regrinding valves. II is ad-
visable to use light spring under the
valve head, acting TO raise the valve
from the seat; the valve should be
worked sd and down so as to work the
abrasive material on to the seat In
with a reciprOcatinE motion, not turned
continually in one direction, else ridges
viii be formed

The Utmost

Bear In mind that, for years and
years, NO-Rim-Cut tires have been
the high-price tires.
Nobody claimed to make tires
that were better. But other stand
ard tires cost less.
Yet No-Rim-Cut tires came to
outsell all others, because Of their
proved economies. They saved
their extra cost to users, two or
three times over.

BY gum, Sam insult is some farmer.

When it comes to gathering in the

We made mistake in saying Sam

an agriculturist.
Somebody said once that farmer
makes his money on the farm and
blows it in the city, while an agri-
culturist makes it in the city and
blows it on the farm.
Yes, m-lnsuII's an agricuIturist.
Joe cudahy is another agricuItur-
list. He took a. ribbon for a-team of
mules.
Some agricuIturists run to COWS
and some to mules. But, when
man has the price he can generally
pick his company.
We never met up with any of Joe
Cudahy's mules, but it is only fair to
assume that they are perfect ladies
and gentlemen, having been raised

Very likely the mules are merely
spending the summer at their sum-
