Dirty Scales Mark
 of Careless Dealer

PHOENIX, Feb. i7.-That store keepers and dealers generally do not take proper care of scales and weighing devices, is the statement of G. N. Cres well. state inspector of weights and measures. who is now on his annual in- spcction tour of the state.
 T find many scales in bad shape that cannot be condemned as false" said Inspector Creswell Saturday. at the close of his first week of inspection. "A scale should be gone over at least once every three months and thoroughly cleaned, But so long as they can weigh anything on t. dealers generally do not seem to care how dirty the bearings be- come. Often. instead of cleaning thei T apparatus properly. they try to grease the bearings, with the result that the scale is in worse shape than before''

 Route Now Open

FLORENCE. Feb. l6.-Although the great influx is not expected until warmer weather opens up the roads throughout the east and middle west hundreds of automobile parties already have made the tranSconunental trip over the Southern national Highway to the San Diego exposition. and before the end of 1915, it is believed that a total of 25.000 automobiles will cross the continent with visitors to the two Cali fornia expositions One large party of
 tourists already is being organized by J. ! Cole president of the Cole Motor
 Car company. and several others are
 being planned by automobile owners in all parts of the country
 When the other three trails open fo, travel in the course of the next few
 months, the great influx of automobile parties will begin with streams of mot or cars making their way to the Pacific over all four highways
 Last year the three Pacific coast states expended huge sums in putting finish ing touches to their elaborate system of state highways. and as result. the roads ar, in first class condition States, counties, and towns along the four main transcontinental highways also have worked faithfully to get the various routss into the best poss iblt shape.

When first placed under arrest Greer stoutly do nied any connection with the bank rob- bery but the officers are of the opinion that he will likewise confess his parti- cipation in the bold affair before he is brought to trial.
 It IS the belief that both Hale and Mack squandered their ilI-gotten gains in riotous living before they were ap- prehended by the Sheriff at Roaring Springs, Texas, At the time of their arrest Mack's bank account showed a balance ef sl70 and Hale had deposit of s3Oi.
