motor trucks % var Gus makes and clas-
ses were pitted against each other in a
strenuous run ot over 200 miles against
the heaviest kinds OF odds.
Starting at Los Angeles, they bore
southeast to Riverside, then north through
Redlands and San Bernardino and then
westward again to Los Angeles.
The best score was chalked up IN favor
OF a i,5Oo-pound Menominec truck. In the
two days OF travel they consumed about
sixteen gallons Of gasoline, one quart OF
oil and one quart OF water. They made
the last ninety-one miles in tour hours
and twenty-eight minutes. The driver
gives much OF the credit for his victory
to the behavior OF the Firestone tires
with which the truck vas equipped.

A motor car. bearing party OF Boston
people, figured in one Of the most ex-
citing escapes Of foreigners from war
rent Europe.
The flight led over the summit OF the
Alpine stelvio pass. the lottiest in Eu-
rome traversed by carriage road.
Charles c. Hoyt Of Brookline, accom-
panied by a motor party consisting OF
Mrs Hoyt. Edward NJ. Farnsworth, Mrs
Farnsworth. and their daughter were
caught in Vienna the day Austria began
mobilization. The Tightening intensity Of
the situation warned them TO lose no
time In fleeing for neutral territory.
The party at once resolved to rely upon
its Packard. Train schedules had been
abandoned, and tourists were terrified,
But the way over the Alps was stu open
and Mr. Hoyt made for II.
on the snow-draped summit OF the pass,
two stones beside the road mark the In
ternational boundary between Austria ana
Italy. Hating his machine, the American
paused to hand the guard the papers
which had authorized him TO travel by
automobile In Austria. His bond was re-
turned and the party fingered while TO
observe the beauties OF the place before
starting the descent into Italy.
Informed of War.
After a moment, they were abruptly in
formed by an Austrian official that war
had been declared. that no more motor
cars might cross the pass, and that the
party must return down the Austrian
side.
Hoyt, noting that his car was standing
exactly across the international boundary
line, its engine in Italy and It's rear wheels
in Austria, said in an undertone in Eng
lish TO his chauffeur: Run her a little
ahead" with an almost imperceptible
movement the chauffeur took his rear
wheels over the line.
Mr. Hoyt. turning to the official, re-
piled: you see, sir. my car Is not In
Austria. You have signed my papers
Our business Is finished. 1 shall descend
into Italy"
The guard saw the point, yielding grace
fully, and the Hoyt Packard was the last

Should be Independent.

Advocates of good roads are
strongly of the opinion, Commissioner
Suggs said, that this department
should be divorced from the depart
ment of agriculture and devoted en-.
tirely to the good roads movement.
The sO-called unit system, under
which the state, county and township
would maintain their own system of
highways, independent of any other
system and the employment only of
competent engineers on all road work
be it great or small also were en-
dorsed by the congress The gen
eral opinion among delegates to the
congress, Commissioner Suggs stated,
was that it is just as essential to
employ a thorough, competent en-
gineer for the laying out of a dirt
road as it is for an expensive maca-
dam highway.

There has been a great increase
in the number of visitors, he reports,
although the park has been given
the "black eye" by the failure of
congress to carry in the sundry civil
bill appropriations for the park for
the year ending June 80, 1914
Mr.. Sneed in his report further
states:
81 estimate that not more than
$4,000 to 10000 persons visited the
Plat National Park during the year
ending June 80. 1914 However, al
though the park office was not open
for a part of the time when there
was no appropriation between July
! and October %. 1913, at the time
there was no appropriation for the
maintenance, so that the campers
who came into the park camp
grounds during that time were not
registered, yet there were registered
during the year total of S6i, who
came into the park and camped for
three days or more-an increase over
last year Of 3S3 persons, and exceed

The waste occasioned by storing
oil in the earth AMOUNTS TO as much
as 40 per cent within a few weeks
This has been demonstrated in the
Healdton field by several companies
which stored oil in that manner. The
oil becomes so hot in storage that
one cannot bear the hand in it..
The lighter and more valuable oils
quickly pass into the elements, and
the oil deteriorates. A remarkable
amount of oil has been wasted in the
Healdton field within one year
Wanton waste in allowing oil to
run down the creeks, the manner of
storage, fire and floods, have con-
tributed TO the loss. Oil should be
kept in storage provided for it by
nature until commerce has de
mand for it, One producer said his
tank lost him 125 barrels a day as
long as his oil was in earthen stor-
age

would have been one of the strongest in

strength to the Hatchetites, extensively
and defensively. Their work would have
stood out in every particular. In just

now lacking these men star, and that
George Washington would have been a
great deal stronger had they played is
certain.
