That large percentage of the
southern California crops are moving

roads has been pointed out by officials
of the Automobile Club of Southern

San Bernardino county is consider

highways. From the Imperial Valley
large crops are working their way to
coast ports and to centers of trade over
highways.
II used to be the farmer who OPP
posed road building as "speedways for
joy-rlders." but that era Is past. That
of the highways than ever before is
the belief at Auto Club headquarters.
State highways which are building
at great expense to California win
more than double their value after
completion. in helping to move the
crops which will feed war-swept Eu-

HELPFUL HINTS FOR
MOTOR CAR OWNERS

Soft water should be used in the
cooling system and not hard water.
Hard water contains more ar less min
eral matter, which viii cause deposits
in the radiator and water Jackets. Es-
pecially is this true IL the motor has
a tendency TO overhead and the water
boil.
Every battery box has or should
have, a drain in the bottom. Where
the battery is located on the run
hoard this drain is Intellectual For
that reason the box should be raised
a bit above the running board. This
will permit the electrolyte which may
spill out from gathering under the bot
tom and destroying il. 1t also can be
washed out whenever the car is clean
ed.
A motor that is subject TO consider
able vibration is liable to have its
cylinders work loose on the crank
case through the loosening of the hold
ng-down bolts or nuts If they are not
watched, y wrench should be applied
occasionally to make sure that every
thing is tight. The trouble that arises
from loose cylinders runs all the way
from leakage of oil to a wrecked motor
The use of kerosene for cleaning out
carbon from the cylinders of a motor
is good thing, but If carried to ex-
cess more or less trouble is apt to fol-
low. Too much kerosene will cut out
all fabrication and very considerably
impair compression The oil left in
the cylinders will mix with the gasoline
and may tend to make ignition diff
flcult and starting very hard. Furth-

Before taking your car out of dead

before taking car Off the Jacks. Fill
the tank with gasoline. Screw down
all the grease cups and freely use the

one. Fill the radiator with water. DO
this slowly, to allow the water to

sene in each cylinder before cranking

The subject of rubber as used in
automobile tires has heretofore been a
closed book to the tire user, And such
little Information as has been given
has not cerated very definite or accu-
rate impressions.
Many believe that all rubber comes
from Para. The fact is Para is only
one port in the vast South American
rubber zone.
The finest rubber the worlds stand
ard of value. comes from the upper
Amazon valley-this grade being
known as Up-Rivec Fine Para The
difficulties and dangers of gathering
this rubber add greatly to its cost.
From the lower Amazon valley are OBJ
tanned the weaker and cheaper grades
OF Brazilian rubber.
Africa is another sources OF natural
supply. Mexico another, but their rub
bers are inferior.
The next best quality OF rubber to
fine Para comes from the island of
Ceylon and the Fedora ed Malay states.
where nearly a million acres have
been devoted TO rubber culture.
The yearly output the world ap-
proXimates $1,000 tons, very small
part of which is first quality Para. al
though Brazil produces one-half of
the total supply.
So, in spite of all that tire makers
have had, and still have to say about
pure ParA"-the fact that Para rub
Der is used means little.
First-because of the several kinds
or grades of rubbe- shipped from
South America under that trade name.

Para Either may be pure"
Second-because it is not whether
Para is used-but how 1t is used-the
quantity used, that is vital to tire eff

No tire is all rubber. That is out
of the question. An all rubber tire
would not. could not give the service.
compromising of mineral substances

The formulas followed for the diff
ferent compounds used in the various
sections of the tire are what largely
govern price and quality.

tory is instructed according to the
manufacturer aims and standards.

quality is the end in view or a poor,

who kept the vast army in touch with
the movements of the enemy, and who
destroyed telegraph wires and sta
tons en- route. There are said TO be

RECORDS BROKEN
IN NORTHERN RUN
Buick Takes New Honors
in Grind Through Rug
ged Country.

A little 1915 Buick touring car has
broken all existing records between
San Francisco and Seattle.
Not only did the Buick establish a
new record between San Francisco and
Seattle, but it also lowered the record
between San Francisco and Portland
made by Buick the year previous
The speedometer registered 9s3
miles at the finish of the run. The
performance OF the Buick is the more
remarkable when the condition of the
roads is taken into consideration.
The entire Pacific Northwest is GO
ing through great road building PEI
riod. Strenuous efforts are being made
TO get the roads in condition by 1915,
and this construction activity makes
many detours necessary. as well as
hard pulling through soft road beds
where detours are impossible.
No attempt was made by Claude
MCGEE and Fred Gross OF San Fran
cisco, who drove the Buick, to strip
the car for racing. Fully equipped. as
it came from the factory, the car was
sent away on its three-state journey.
In addition to the regular electric light
equipment, 1t carried two large cleo
trio headlights. as It was necessary to
average the same mileage during the
night as during the day. Even with
this extra drain on the Delco system,
the electrical plant of the car never
faltered.
Not a single mechanical trouble of
any description occurred during the
entire run. and no trouble with the
Goodyear no-rim-cut tires, save a sin
gle puncture caused by a large spike,
which was picked up near the end Of
the run.
The official time OF the run is 80
hours 25 minutes for the 765 miles to
Portland, and 80 hours 10 minutes for
the 966 miles to Seattle.
