pared by F. H. Trego, chief engineer of

pert and man who has made the coast
forecast journey many times by motor
car. The booklet contains a map Of the
route. discusses routes. costs, time, equip
ment, advice for variety Of emergen-
cies. provisions, etc. Here are a few
'don'ts'' that are put down. which are
likely to be as valuable as the positive
advice:
Don't wait till the gasoline is nearly
gone before filing up. There might be a
delay.
Don't allow the water can to be other
than full of fresh water and fill it every
chance. You might spring a radiator

any time. Qist of eatables given)

except Possibly a small pistol.

SAYS AUTOMOBILE
HAS HELPED BROKER
Realty Business Aided by Motor
Car, According to
Writer.

1.-THE motor car bears a strong rela-
ton to the real estate business, in
these days of activity and of rapid
transportation" says a writer in the
National Real Estate Journal. ut has
come as boon to many dealers with
subdivisions somewhat removed from
the business sections of cities.
"In the olden days 1t was necessary
for the dealer to depend on the rail-
road service. or the more or less us-
certain street car transportation.
Sometims the latter was not availa-
BILE. the subdivisions being located out
side of the street car district. In that
case. depending on the infrequent serr-
ice of the train. the real estate dealer
was at a great disadvantage.
"a trip to an outlying subdivision
would consume hours and in many
cases would take all day. A prospec-
tive buyer would find that even il the
time consumed in making the trip were
a few hours short of full day, it
nevertheless SO cut into his day that
there was practically no time left for
his regular work.
Saves Much Time.
But, with the advent of the auto
mobile, and it's perfection, things have
assumed a very different phase. Now
the real estate dealer puts his pros
pective customer into motor car and
in a short time he is landed at the SUBJ
division. If it is a large subdivision
the car will carry him over the entire
section in few minutes. without the
necessity of his disembarking even for
one minute. He sees the lay of the
land. gets an idea of the situation of
the lots. with reference to the rest of
the city, and is taken back to the city
without having suffered the least in
convenience. In an hour or two he is
back at his desk or his work.
Real estate dealers all. over the
country are beginning to realize the
value of the motor car. AS a time
saver. and an anLihilator Of space, it
is the most perfec- method of trans
portatiop yet devised for the dealer.
In many cities big brokers have adopt
ed the plan of taking their customers
to look over the property, whether it
be a subdivision, a piece of residence
property, or even lot in the business
district.
"The use Of the motor car by real es-
tate dealers has fully, demonstrated its
worth to them. More autos are being
sold every day for this work. and 't.ere
is no doubt that the active dealer will
be benefited with. a full utilization of
this means of rapid transit in the fu-
ture."

Refrains From Racing.
While not wholly unexpected by those
closely in touch with the situation, the
announcement of the Hendee Manufac-
turing Company that it will refrain
from further participation in board
and fiat track racing events comes as a
surprise to the great majority of fans.
A formal statement MAS issued from
the Wigwam September 4, announcing
that its new policy with reference to
racing would go into effect September
s. For some time past there has been
a growing conviction among officials
of the company that the dangers Incl
dent to speed work on fat and board
tracks were out of proportion to the
sporting or business-Peturns derived,
and the present decision is the result
of long consideration of the matter,
Exceptions are made by the company
in favor of suitable and well kept
speedways, such -as the circuits at
Dodge. City; sioux--City. Elgin and
Savannah, -on which lopg-dtstance
events are staged under the most care
full management. 1t is argued that
such races, in addition to reducing the
risks to the minimum, have a truly
beneficial effect on the spot and indus
try, inasmuch as they indicate endur-
a1,ce. simplicity and general depend
ability on the part of machines.
