Race Drivers to Equip
Cars With Miller Tires

That the time for the 1914 interna-
tional sweepstake races is drawing
near Is being brought forcibly to mind
by the fact that many of the speed
kings are making final arrangements
for their tire equipments.
According to reports received from
the Miller Rubber Company, Akron,
Ohio, makers of Miller tires, negotia-
tions are being made by eight of the
drivers in the coming race to use Mil
Ter tires.
For some time Miller tires have
held the worlds road race regards for
endurance. Last year in the Wander
bilt, and the year previous in the In
dianapolis race Teddy Tetzlaff's car
was equipped with Miller tires, when
the unbroken record of 1871 miles per
hour was reached. and so far this re-
mains untouched here or abroad.
In the last Vanderbilt cup race the
Marmon car driven by Guy Ball, and
the Alec piloted by Billy Taylor were
both equipped with Miller tires and
went the entire distance, 403 miles,
with but one change.
The successes that have attended
these tires during the last few years is
attributed mainly to the process of
manufacture. The makers claim that
their method is the proper way for
curing and that it maintains the ma
tural quality in rubber and gives good
service on both road and track.
They use single cure wrapped tread
method of construction, which is an
exclusive process for making the
strong and durable rubber in their
tires.

Cadillac Fire Truck Runs
q Miles in 81 Minutes

Fire fighting il being rapidly revo-
lutionized by the automobile or mo-
tor driven apparatus and with the SEN
sational feats these vehicles are per-
forming nearly every day 1t seems
likely that the horse will soon be aban-
doned as a part of a fire departments
equipment because of comparative in
efficiency. Fast runs by automobile
apparatus also diminish the possible
loss from fire and in time will un-
doubtedly affect insurance rates.
Amarillo, Texas, rec, .tly provided a
spectacular example Of what can be
done In this line of public service. A
fire truck built on stock Cadillac
chassis and carrying, with hose, lad
ders, chemicals and tools, an over
load of 1,200 pounds and with a total
weight of 5000 pounds, made a re-
markable run to the State Normal
fire, covering q distance of twenty
three and two-tenths miles in thirty
one minutes. The last nine miles were
done in ten minutes and the average
speed was forty-six miles an hour,
The run was made over country roads,
over hills and through canyons and
around twelve short turns.

per hour. They have learned that the
real test of the good car is the slow
speed. Yet tricky drivers of car that
fails in slow speed test are able to
put 1t over" on their prospect unless
watchfulness is exercised. An expert
driver can so manipulate his clutch
pedal, cutout and throttle that the car
will travel at a slow speed. At the
same time the noise of the open ex-
haust browns out the. sound of the
gear and the slipping clutch and the
prospect is led to believe that the car
is travelling at a speed much lower
than it really would If the clutch We're
fully engaged and the cutout silent.
OF course, says l. w. Dill, the local
Hudson distributor, who explained
the novel idea, this slipping of the
clutch and clever scheming of the
driver is only needed where a car is
incapable of meeting the test of slow
speed. On cars like the Hudson Six
40 or SiX-54 where the siX-cylnder
motor will pull the car steadily at as
low a speed as two miles per hour no
such tricky devices are necessary. And
the remedy is to let the prospect drive
the car. There is then a fair and un-
prejudced opportunity for him to see
just what the motor will go. And he
cannot be deceived by the eXpertness
of the driver.

and the need for car that will op-

has made necessary a motor that will

be had and only thus can the pleasure

There was no way to set cars for the

a string of six freight cars, loaded with

Starting and Lighting
System of Jackson Cars

| All jackson motors are built with
the electric cranking and lighting sys-
tenn. Current is generated by a dyna-
mo driven from the battery to crank
the motor and light the lamps when
the car is not running. The system
operates on six volts, and the wiring
consequently is simple and direct. The
electrlc cranking motor is mounted
vertically at the front end of the en-
glne. On the lower end of the arma-
ture smart Is worm gear, which en-
cages a large gear on the counter
shaft. Above and below the worm
gear on the armature shaft are ball
bearings, which prevent wear and keep
the worm in perfect mesh with the
gear. Keyed to the large gear is n
small sprocket. A roller chain runs
from this sprocket to the free mem
Der of the ratchet starting clutch.
Ihls member of the ratchet clutch is
free to reyolve on the shaft, while
the other member moves in and out
OF engagement on the splined start
ing shaft with which it rotates, When
the clutch is not engaged, the motor
is entirely free from the starting
mechanism, and can rock back and
forth with restriction. The foot switch
IN the floor board controls both the
clutch and the starting motor. When
the switch is first depressed the teeth
or the clutch are brought into engage
ment, then the electric contact is made
which sends the current into the start
ing motor and cranks the engine.
The convenience and economy of
electric lights has done more to make
night driving pleasure than any 9TH
! er single development of jackson de-
sign. The powerful electric headlights
throw flood of brilliant white light
as far ahead on the road as the
driver can see. The lights are con-
trolled by the touch of a button on the
dash, and the storage battery from
which they draw their current is kept
fully charged by the dynamo driven
from the motor.
