Event; Hughson Tells Of
Progress at Course.

W. L HughsOn, chairman of the Van
derbilt and Garnd Prize racing com
mittee in San Francisco, announces that
the course on which the big races are
to be run in February in the Bay City
is practically completed, and before
long some fast laps will be made to
show the possibilities of the fOur-mile
LAP. Mr.. Hughson and members of the
fair commission have made a trip over
the course in Kisselkar and Mr..
HUghsOn says that he felt sure this
would be by far the most spectacular
race ever run in the west.
The entire course has been changed
from gravel road to an asphalt sur
face.
"The course is four miles around"
said chairman Hughson, land ranges
in width from 40 to 70 feet. There are
two riEht-anEle turns, and at each of
these the road is 20 feet wide There
are two half turns, two gradual curves
and one hairIin.
THE race will be spectacular from
almost any point on the course. At
the racers being separated as they go in
opposite directions only by a circle Of
gardens.
The grandstand will accommodate
%, 900 persons. That it will be sold out
long before the date of the race is
certainty. Just what methods we will
adopt for making reservations has not
as yet been decided. but undoubtedly
there will be an advance mail order
reservation made before the window
sale starts.
Entries close Feb. 10. We have been
assured of enough entries already to
make this the greatest road race ever
run. The European war will not have
great effect, as a majority of the fast
European cars that have made shOwings
in recent races are in this country"
Mr.. HUghson has been making his
70 d0r rtn Of Arrn Do Of
pany branch. He is pleased with the in
creased business of his local branch
and saws there is every indication Of a

100 Motor Buses Carry Soldiers.
There are 100 of these motor buses
in the service-90O carrying food and
200 conveying soldiers to the front
only four of them have been lost in
two months hard and risky service
and only five Of them needed repairs.
Besides these motor buses it is esti-
mater that there are between 10000
and $4,000 motor cars Of other types
in the service Of the army A certain
number of heavy vehicles specially
built from army specifications have
been purchased each year after their
efficiency had been demonstrated in
competitive tours. One of these tours
was in progress at the time the war
began and every one of the fifty odd
motor trucks engaged in the compe-
titiOn was Immediately requisitioned,
as well as all those that were build
ing in the shops Of different automo-
bile concerns. The service they rem
der is inestimable. Much of the ra-
pidity of movement Of different army
corps is attributed to the transporta-
ton of the impedimenta by motor cars.

TRUCKS HAVE 4
BIC INFLUENCE
Solution of Good Roads De-
ponds to a Large Extent
on Farm Trucks.
Us Boys


New York, Nov. Solution Of the
good roads problem depends in some
measure on q recognition Of the part
that the automobile and motor truck
will play in transportation between
farm and city, says the highway CON-
mission appointed TO investigate the
public roads of the province Of Ontario
in its recently published report con-
tanning recommendations for the i'm
Trovement Of the roads on a large scale.
The Recommendation.
Among the principal recommended
lions are the creation of a central high
way department with an advisory
board Of public-sTirited men of
recognized ability and bond issues,
aggregating $30.000,OO0, to be expended
in the next Is years for permanent road
Improvement work.
Means must be found to guard
against the rapid deterioration Of the
roads due in considerable part to the
"OpT Ortunities as well as difficulties are
presented by this new method of trans
pOrtattOn. It is individuallstic and thus
cOmmends itself to farming, the most
individualistic occupation in the world.
The farmer today can procure a. motor
car with as little straining of his re-
sources as his grandfather could a top
buggy
Public attention at present tends to
fasten on the pleasure cars. but your
commissioners find themselves much
more interested in those vehicles, some
designed for the transportation of pas
sengers and some for the carriage of
freight, which they are persuaded be-
fore long viii be in general use by the
farmers of the province. In this
beneficent revolution good roads must
play a very important part.
Motor Trucks For Farms.
THE motor truck presents some Of
the features essential TO profitable use
by farmers. 1t conveys loads of a size
20 moderate that a single farm can fur
nish one or more loads yet so large as
to Outclass the old horse-drawn wagon;
it requires, not specialized tracks, like
railways. but a common highway, albeit
improved to a standard within the
reach Of the community, and it is free
from the difficulties of traffic adjust
ment which have made the conduct Of
railways a business in itself"
