''BORAX" SMITH
FINDS NEW LOT
OF COLMANITE
SPECULATION RIFE AS TO EFF.
Feet OF DISCOVERY ON
PRESENT MIDDLE.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 27-That
Borax Smith has located new borax
deposits in the southern part of Cali
fornia as extensive and valuable, if
not more so, than the present Death
valley holdings, was disclosed in the
reported purchase of mineral claim
in Kern county by John Ryan, man
ager of Smiths horax properties.
The values of the new deposits are
variously estimated from 100000 to
100000 and are located in Kern
county near the San Bernardino
line, about four miles northeast of
Rich station and twelve miles west
of Kramer. Tests on the location
have shown the bed to be sixty feet
thick and only forty feet under the
surface.
As the new deposit is within five
miles of railroad transportation, its
superiority over the present work
ings of the company in the isolated
Death valley, from which the borax
products are transported across the
desert for many miles to the nearest
railroad only with the greatest diff.
Guilty, is self-evident.
The feature in the new find that is
Of most interest in financial circles
is just what bearing this will have

former borax king. In view Of the
fact that the Borax Consolidated OF

I recently drove a hard bargain with
/ Smith when it secured an option on
his holdings at a figure far below

ATTITUDES IN COLORADO SET
FORTH BY THE U. S. GEO.
LOGICAL SURVEY.

As an incidental feature of its topo-
graphic mapping in the state of Colo
RADIO, the United States geological
survey has established bench marks
that have been found Of inestimable
value by engineers and others who
are required to have knowledge of
the exact elevation Of the locality at
which their starting points are
founded. From 1896 to 1910, inclu-
siye the geological survey marked
more than 1900 exact elevations in
the state. These datum points have
been marked by means of tablets,
caps on iron posts embedded in the
ground, or small metal disks driven
into trees, posts, etc, the number
stamped with steel dies on the bench
marks representing the elevations to
the nearest foot as determined by the
levelman.
Bulletin 1885, which has been issued
by the survey, describes these datum
points and gives their exact eleva
tons to the thousandth Of a foot. Fol
instance, the datum point on the
highest point of Pixies Peak is de
scribed as follows:

On examining specimens Of it
Suckow decided that he had come

discovery, he took samples Of the
formation to Los Angeles, where he
exhibited them to certain parties.
These are said to have been com

MUSICAL HORNS BARRED.

The musical automobile horns which threatened to fill the main streets of Paris with snatches of popular or clas- sical airs instead Of the usual 'honk honk'' have come to a quick finish in France.
 A test case was brought against two motorists of Douai, who enlivened the night trumpeting the 1eitmotiv of Die WaIkure,'' and it has been de- cided that these instruments are i1- legal. The decision brought out a judicial definition of the word "horn,' 2 which had hitherto been rather widely interpreted.
 '+The 1atter,'' said the Judge, must be for the purpose of sounding an alarm and be used to warn the public not to amuse 1t. It must give forth single note which should be grave. even sinister, in order to call atten- ton to the impending danger.
 "The new fanfare horns,'' added the Judge, Hack seriousness, and are therefore outside the meaning of the act''

Rhine, its Italian lakes, were sung on ly in the prose or verse of pioneers. who by wagon trail, horse, or in canoe had penetrated regions fair as the Continent at her best can boast.
 Borough, township, state or nation have joined hands in a country wide movement to lay down roads adequate for motor use. Highways have been pushed through wildernesses of rare beauty, beside romantic streams, over craggy mountains that test that dar- ing of driver and construction of car.
 From steam train window, the trav- eler might catch mile-a- minute glimpse of mountain, valley or plain; but the spirit of discovery, the inn pulse to go into the back country. to know it's quaint by ways, its hills and dales and bubbling streams 70 smell the fragrant perfume of natures foliage, came with the automobile.
 Certainly no other factor has con trfbuted so largely to the general @ greater area than under any other single flag in the world.
 Small excuse is there for the motor ist to conflne his pleasure ito city pavem ents, when half an hour or less will bring him into shady country lanes, past waving verdure, where bright germ-destroy1ng sunlight abouuds and 1ife-giving, clean air brushes the cobwebs of care from jaded brain and Jagged system.

To do so, in fact, is one of its most important functions, since it arrays before it's members the sci entific facts concerning important matters in orderly and authentic manner.

SEEKING RELnE1Fs FROM
 HIGH PRMCED GASOLINE.

After quietly studying the gasoline situation for the past three months the National Association of Automo- bile Manufacturers has found sufn- cient grounds to warrant a. thorough investigation of automobile fuels, in cluding the immediate applicability of kerosene and other fow-grade pe- troleum products and the possibilities of developing substitutes for gasoline itself. Special arrangements have been made with the Society of Auto mobile Engineers, whereby the latter organization will undertake the more technical features of the investigation, including possibly a not inconsider- able amount of research work. The movement is the first definite response of the automobile industry to the re- peated and insistent complaints of mo torists throughout the country during the past nine or ten months. That 1t will bring ultimate relief Is practical lv assured from the fact that the fuel problem is recognized by the man ufa cturers themselves as a question involving in some measure the future welfare of the industry.

Motor trucks have been found in dfspensibIe in the construction of a new reservoir which Will .nelp supElS l Bridgeport with water.

 The Bridgeport Hydraulic Company Is authority for the statement that
 with horses the work could not have
 been completed in a period of three
 years and that each truck did as
 much work in shorter space of time
 as 12 horses would have done. These same trucks have been adapt
 ed for carrying five ton water pipes.
 By means of a power operated winch

 are rolled up two sEcfds placed at the
 other side of the truck into position

 carried on a trailer behind making
 the entire load hauled at one time,

HOW TO LUBR1cArE.

"A chart which will tell you just where and when to 1ubrtcate the va rious parts of your car Is the best set of instructions for the care of an au- tomobile that I know of," says M S. Young of the Regal factory. You can tack such a chart to the wall of your garage and consult it whenever caring for your ear.
 T have in mind the diagram of a chassis and on this diagram are drawn numerous arrows which point to the several oil holes and grease cups where the lubricant is held. At the outside of each arrow is placed a let ter which refers the person caring for the car to a convenient table. This table serves to list the quality and quantity of the lubricant required and tells how often the oil or grease should be supplied.
 EfIt is safe to make only eight di- visions of your duties for 1ubricating your car If a man drives his auto mobile fifty or more miles every twenty-four hours it should have daily attention in certain parts. The next time limit Is one week, when certain other parts require attention. The ta- bIe referring to the chart should also indicate when grease cups need to be turned and just what parts of a car need attention but once or twice @ sea- son.
 ''T1e secret of motor car enjoyment lies in the care of car. Get the habit of making careful and periodic inspections. Keep all parts of your car clean and then follow instructions for proper 1uibrications. Most rnanu- facturers are now supplying such charts as I have mentioned, to the owners of their cars. It would pay every person who IS responsible for the successful operation of a car to keep one of these charts where he can consult it. often.'

 Much of the satisfaction to be de-

 Properly handled at first, a motor car
 should improve steadily and be at it's
 best at the end of 4,000, or 5000 miles
 Unfortunately, there are cars which, | instead of improving by use, steadily
 run down. from the time they are
 taken over by the owners, and, in the majority of cases, such disappointing
 results can be traced to rough hand ling on the road and lack of attention
 in the garage.
 Over-driving and insufficient lubri- cation are the two most potent causes for premateur deterioration, and of the two, over-driving is probably the more common. Too many owners and drivers are anxious to ascertain, at the earliest possible moment, what their new cars will do, and, having discovered that given speed is attain able on the level,- are tempted to make frequent efforts to squeeze an extra five miles or so, out of too Willing engine. A little se1f-restraint will be well repaid There are many small cars on the market which will exceed forty miles an hour on the flat, but their owners would be well advised to fix their working limit at thirty miles, except on special occasions, and, the fewer of these there are, the better for their coffers. High speeds should be vigorously avoided for month, or SO after the car arrives from the mak- CTS so that, when the car Is tried right out to its limit of power, both engine and transmission may be in the best condition for withstanding the strain High speed, however, is not the only form of i'll usage to which the new car is subjected on the road.
