MACHINERY AND
 MANUFACTURERS
Many Interesting Displays Grouped Outside of Main Buildings Attract Univer- sal Attention from Visit ors to Great Fair
strona Standard Oil Display


 Standard Oil, in it's multitude of forms and it's multitude of uses, makes one of the leading exhibits among those of the private firms in the mid way of the state fair. Theirs is a tel ling display. One end of the booth is partitioned and furnished to represent the kitchen and living room of the small home. illustrating the employ ment of the numerous oil products, from candles and floorpolish, to the oil-fuel range. Not the least interest," ing part of the exhibit is very com plete set of models in motion, of the surface plant of the Standard oil well, occupying a large central stand. In the gasoline section, the efficient ser vice pumps, guns" and portable tanks, manufactured by the Gilbert and Bar ker company, of Springfield, Mass, and employed throughout the Standard oil service, were featured. An instructive working model of an automobile trans mission, served to demonstrate the suitability of the grease put out by the company as a lubricant. Hundreds of visitors to this exhibit have been mys- tified by the inverted zerolene can, that, like the magic bowl of Greek myth, has a never-en ending flow. A lit tie hard thinking, and the illusion is simple Calol liquid gloss floor polish, and dustless mops, are also among the specialties featured The fittings of the model rooms are the loan of the Doris Heyman furniture house.
 The Ford Display
 In the booth of the Standard Oil company and serving to illustrate the automobile use of zerolene, is a Ford chassis with demonstration engine in motion, from Ed Rudolph's Phoenix home of the Ford With the cylinder head removed by the simple process of taking out twelve bolts, the pistOns arc disclosed to view and the perfect interior oiling system is clearly shown. The system of removable cylinder heads is a unique feature of the Ford car and it's convenience in accessibility to the valves and pistons. is obvious. The planetary gears system. the feat ure of the Ford, is placed in view by means of an open demonstration cas- ing The three point suspension sys tenn, one of the main Ford features can be seen on the bare chassis. Bear ing every strain on three points, it is claimed, insures Q greater degree of endurance by the disturbed bearing of the strain
 Mine illumination

heaters are modelled to make the rest use of the Arizona sun. The makers attribute the dndoubted sue cess of their system to their special ly constructed insulation tank anI the principle of circulation. Count less visitors from the colder climates have ben astonished at the degree of heat attained entirely from the suns rays, and the solar heater has made a strong appeal to hundreds from it's complete economy.
 Rich Hardware Company
 Making a special feature of Pat tons sun-proof paints, the Rich Hardware company has strong showing in the midway of the state fair. This paint, they claim, is so mixed as to be better able U withstand the hot summer sun than paints not so treated. For this com modity the Rich company are the state distributing agents. On ex- hibit also, is one of the Torrid Zone furnaces featured by the company. The furnace is adapted to the use oA toui' WOob pl pil do lutii anu 4dS fulfilled every requirement as the heating system in a number of local buildings, among them. the Osborn school. A line of blacksmith's sup plies, including large hand or power drilling machine, also forms part of the exhibit.
 The Saxon Runabout
 The little Saxon runabout, recently introduced to this section has at tracted a great deal of interest and comment. and the public therefore is welcoming the opportunity afford ed in the midway at the state fair. To close inspection of it's many points. The hood is removed and the efficient four-cylnder motor. complete with magneto, is demon strated. An examination of the Sax on reveals that although in the class of the light "cylce-car," the features generally adopted by the bigger and expensive makes of car. as standard. aIe embodied, and the parts are sub stantial. The Saxon has a record behind it of long wear and endurance tests that place it in class with many heavier cars, for efficiency. The en- zine is eighteen horsepower, yet not withstandng, the price of the car is just about the price of a horse and mule.

"The Rec the Fifth"

That the new "Reo the Fifth au
 tomobile, on display at the state fair, combines more of the features of the expensive cars at a price within the range of the "cheap" car, is thc claim of the manufacturers, and the list of improved devices approved by some of the great standard makes of cars and adopted in this new Reo is an array that should ensure inn mense popularity among users of the cbeap serviceable car, this year. Among it's features are many unique in the Rec. It is the only car with a double system of cooling fans, and it carries a combination method of air heating which insures vapor- izing of the lowest grade gasoline; the four-cylinder engine has over head valves and a tubular two-piece radiator No other car has the Rec being operated by the clutch pedal. and this light ear carries brakes of the size employed on the heavy cars. It has sub-frame with transmission amidships The clutch is of the dry multiple disc type, and has a 3% 1 gear ration. The bearings are Tim ken throughout, and another of the many improvements is the adoption of the spring system of drive, made famous by the great English firm of HOtchkiss. and which acts as q cush- ion to the shock. The Rec is q smart. substantial looking car, with particularly fine upholstery in leath- CT throughout. local agency nas been established with the Transcon- tinental garage, and the Rec the Fifth makes a big bid for popularity as soon as it's merits become known among the prospective motorists.

during the firework display, was calcu- lated to bear out the claims of the manufacturers.
 A Water Meter
 A unique system of checking water flow is the Venturi irrigation meter, shown in action among the business exhibits at the fair. By an ingenious system the flow of water is automat- ically recorded on a revolving degree chart, and the rancher may know to d gallon the exact quantity of water re- ceived every flow. The meter is built on the principle invented in the eighteenth century by an Italian and applied by Clemans Herschel in 1887, when the patents were bought by the Builders Iron Foundry of Providence, R. I. The exhibit is being shown by Howard S. Reed, agent for the entire west, who has offices in the Noll building in this city.
 The Concrete Way
 The undoubted advantages of the concrete system of irrigation over the primitive mud ditch method, are argued in the display of concrete sections made by the Kellar- Thomson company, of Los Angeles, as their addition to the interesting exhibits of the business houses. Economy is the claim of the company, in the use of their system, and the exhibitors of the display put over some telling talks. The KIT system of valves and gates is handled locally by the Maricopa County Con- crete company, with offices at 202 N. seventh avenue.
 The Model Oil Plant
 The Union Oil company has on show working model of the surface ma chine of an oil well. and besides car ries a full line of samples of the we'll known Red Line oils, gasoline and by products in stages of refinement.
 The Bates Steel Mule
 The claims of the Bates steel mule are demonstrated with sample ma chine on the grounds. It is a one man proposition, the steering column at the rear taking the place of reins, and the manufacturers claim that it is the only single craWler that cultivates between the rows The wheels are adjustable from a 8 9b" to 6 9A" guage, to accommodate local conditions. The ra diator is of the tubular type, with a capacity of 2S gallons of water The machine is manufactured by the Joliet Old Tractor company, of Joliet, Illinois
 The Best TrackIayer
 To the rancher the C. l.. Best track layers display is of interest. The two machines, the 75 horse power and the 30 horse power orchard tracklayers are on demonstration on the ground and agents are on hand to demonstrate and explain the claims of the machines

The fel- low workmen of the men made every effort to save them, but it was use less, as the men were killed by the explosion and their bodies cremat- ed.
 When the first workmen reached the scene after the fire had been extinguished the ght of the burned bodies caused several to faint. The engineers fear that the work will have to be abandoned as the cassion cannot be sunk in it's present loca- tion and they fear they will tap the same gas well at any other place they decide to put it. Men are now at work boring to locate some oth- CT site for the big piers.

 Mrs. Moore, a member of Rev. Pierce's congregation, told today how he had caused tragedy in her home and how, because he had kissed her, her husband had refused to go to church. The tragedy was all the more resrettable because she had just succeeded in saving her husband from the devil and had converted him to religion when he caught the min ister kissing and hugging her and as a result quit the church and went back to organism She also told the judges that her husband was real angry when he caught the preacher kissing her and that she had to pre- vent him from hitting the reverend gentlemen.
 A number of other women also tes tifed to the indecent proposals made to them by the preacher, who want ed to take them out on joy rides and always insisted on calling while their husbands were at work

CROWD
 JOHNSON FIGHT
Promoters Stand to Lose SmaIl-sized Mint if Crowds Do Not Attend
 Moran-Johnson Scrap.

PARIS, April Tt is now cer- tainty that the heavyweight cham pionship" fight, between Frank Moran the Pittsburg white hope and Jack Johnson will be pulled off here on a Sunday the day of the Grand Prix at Longcamp's in June.
 Dan Mcketrick, foxy manager of Moran, has everything to gain by picking this, or a similar day, for the match. Johnson is guaranteed $35.- 900 win, lose or draw, $3O.000 to be paid his white wife on the day of the fight and 5000 in $1O0O installments for five weeks prior to the fight. Roth and Maitrot, under whose direction the fight is to be held, also have a guarantee of $5.OOO with prospective share in the gate receipts. Moran will get like settlement, therefore the box office will have to take in at least $45 900 before Danny comes in for a nickel. Over that amount he. Moran and the fight managers will share, but fights so far in Paris have never yielded anything like this sum.
 McKetrick figures this will be the biggest fight France has ever seen, consequently bigger admission will be charged. The battle probably will take place at Pare de Princes, big athletic field, bicycle track and favor ite drilling ground, '@or some other place in order to keep all the money which. may be offered at the gate. However, Moran Is an unknown here and Johnson about as popular as the measles: so somebody stands to lose unless the international sporting men here to see the Grand Prix decide to go in strong for la boxe.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-Two hun dred million dollars worth of eggs

Of this vast amount, fifty million is attributed to needless breakage in transit. and the remain der to bad handling, which causes adding, spelling and deterioration. Two hundred million dollars worth of eggs practically thrown away year or else fit only for strong palates. for tanning. or to swell those unpleas- ant monuments of American waste the garbage heaps.
