MILLIONS BEING Made FROM
TIP Given BY UNCLE SAM
Quad the Only Motor Truck That Could
Reach High Mining Claim and
Bring Untold Riches to the Pos
SCISSORS

How California miner. made mil
lions of dollars by taking tip from
Uncle Sam is the latest and most ro-
mantle chapter in the history of trans
portation.
Several months ago there emerged
from the Funeral Range, on the west
side of Death Valley, prospector
who was all but dead from exhaustion.
Only the knowledge of having discov-
cred rich gold mine spurred him on
to safety.
But when he recovered sufficiently
to 90 and claim his riches, he was
faced with the problem of transporta-
| tion. Wagons were impossible-the
grades were too steep. Pack mules
would not do-the animals needed
more water themselves than they could
| carry between wells. Motor trucks of
the ordinary type were tried, but they
all quit at the first steep grade.
Then came the tip from Uncle Sam.
One of the army officers at San Diego
told of a new type of motor truck
called the Quad, which drives, brakes
anil steers on all four wheels and
which was recently adopted by the
United States government for use in
the quartermaster and signal corps of
the American army. This truck, he
said, waded right through sand or
| roadless country wherever there was a
holding bottom and simply laughed at
the hills.
So the Death Valley miner tried a
Quad, which he operated between his
mine and Zabriskie, a little town on
the Tonopah and Tidewater railroad.
Soon he had an offer of $4,000 for
his property aud sold out. The next
owner had carried away $4,000 worth
of ore with the Quad when he got an
offer of s150,000 which he accepted.
Still another change of ownership
came when the price was boosted to
$4,000. But the present owner is
not talking sale. Instead, he has
bought two more Quads and his for
tune will soon be reckoned in mil
lions.-Advt

EASIEST SIx-CYL|NDER CAR
The Light Six" Haynes Performs
Wonderful Work on Less Gasoline
Than Many Other Machines

The "Light Six" Haynes is the
easiest six-eylinder car in the country
on gasoline. When you can get from
twenty to twenty-four miles on gal
Ion of gasoline with five passengers,
it pays the public to buy an automo-
bile of this character.
The makers acknowledge that the
carburetor on the Haynes is of re-
markably fine type, not usually found
on a car of this price, the Rayfield,
and that the Haynes is constructed
from radiator to rear axle of the very
best possible material all of which
is in perfect alignment and bearings
ground to a micrometer fit.
There isn't any doubt but that the
Haynes is built not just to sell but to
make the owner more enthusiastic
than owners generally get and to have
his enthusiasm increased instead of
decreased.
Many a man is greatly pleased with
his car when he gets 1t but has diff
ferent tune to sing six or nine months
after he has owned it. 1t is not that
way with the Haynes. The longer the
customers have Haynes cars the bet
ter pleased they are.
Roberts and Holm, local dealers, say
that the Haynes is the best and light
est six-cylinder ear made at the pres
ent time, that it will go up any hill
faster at high gear, faster at second
gear faster at low gear, also slower
at high gear and that it will go farther
on gallon of gasoline than any other
six-cylinder car of any weight made,
has been proven.-Ady."
