TELLS WHY WESTERN MOTOR OILS HAVE THE ADVANTAGE

Why do motor oils made from as- phalt-b base crude give best results, es- pescially in the matter of carbon de- posits?" asked MT. J. E. Balsley, of the Standard Oil company.
 Well, it's rather technical sub ject for the ordinary citizen he said. but as our friends the chemists would say, oil made from asphalt base crude 'vaporizes and distills without decomposition
 Tn everyday language that means that oil which gets into the explosion chamber does not break up under the intense heat and leave deposit to gradually bake hard on cylinder walls and valves, and catch and hold carbon derived from the motor fuel.
 ''Oil refined from asphalt base crude maintains it's correct lubricating body until it's work is completed and then passes off with the exhaust, leav- ing a clean cylinder
 Tt simply amounts to this-nature has given asphalt base crude a differ ent and more advantageous chemical construction, as far as producing good motor oils is concerned. And when this oil is correctly refined, naturally it gives the motorist better results

NEW INDUSTRY |s
 ORGANIZED HERE

Special fender and running board braces for automobiles, lenders, trunk racks, etc., are now being man. factured in Phoenix. The new pro- ducts are proving satisfactory and from present indications it appears that the city will soon have another thriving young industry. The work is being done by the Phoenix Plating Company whose shop is operated in connection with the big Hageman plumbing and pipe working plant at Second and Adams streets.
 The Phoenix Plating Company was organized about a year ago, but has had some difficulty in securing the services of a thoroughly competent platter until recently. It appears that even in the very largest plating works in the manufacturing towns, that it is seldom that more than one platter is employed, although there may be hundreds of workers in the entire plant The real "plater" is the man who has the working knowledge of chemistry and electricity, and has in his charge the making of the sOlu tions, etc. Hageman reports that he now has for the first time a man who thoroughly understands both the theory and practice of electro-plat ing, and some exceptionally fine work is being done. It was in con- nection with the electro-plating of automobile accessories for local deal CTS that the idea came to manufac- ture various auto specialties here, and the plan is working out nicely. The demand for such articles in cen tral Arizona for such articles is large enough to keep a small factory busy the year around, and it may be that the Phoenix Plating Works may de- velop into quite a plant if given prop er support by local dealers and auto nlobilists.

ONE OUT OF FORTY
 TWO OWN AUTO

"The fact that in the United States every forty second person of it's 101,- 100000 population owns an automobile leads some to wonder where the im- mense planned production of 1916 is going to be soid," remarks H. s. Daniels of the Kissel Kar.
 '1t is my guess that a greater per- centage than ever before of cars built this year will go abroad. the relative export of pleasure vehicles and com mercial trucks depending upon the length of the European war
 What I hear from the factory in- dicates that at least automobile deal CTS in the belIigerent countries are looking for an early termination of the conflict, in which event they ex- pect business to boom. Most of the cars in France, Germany and Russia have been seized for army use and an immense number destroyed. while many of the automobile factories are badly disorganized.
 But makers in America are not depending upon foreign demand. Rep resentative manufacturers like Kissel already have practically their whole

USE OF D|sT|LLATE
 INCREASING IN J. $,

The use of distillate to replace gas oline in motor cars is becoming one of the most important discussions in mo- tor circles throughout the United States. As the question of cheaper fuel is settled an aggregate saving of many millions of dollars to the American peo- pie will be the result. c. D. Messner of the Southwestern Carburetor Com pany installed the first distillate sta tion in Phoenix several weeks ago and with the use of Master Carburetors the number of Phoenix motors using dis tillate is daily increasing. The use of distillate in pleasure cars as well as trucks is now quite generally in use in California, although it. has not come into general use in the east. Mir Mess ceived many letters from Eastern points from people that through the advertisements in the Republican, wish more information regarding the use of distillate and the Master Carburetor that handles it. The last issue of Mo- tor Age had a story of the Southwest ern Carberetor Company's experience with distiilate. The article has attract ed wide attention. The Automobile Trade Journal has also written Mr Messner for further informa tion on the subject. MT. Messner has explained the reason why the Master Carburetor is so efficient in the use of distillate as well as giving it an increased eff ciency in the use of gasoline. The big feature of the Master Carburetor is it's method of construction which breaks the particles into very fine spray before mixing it with the air, giving perfect combustion; thus utilizing all possible heat units to the best advant- age. The Master Carburetor is thus enabled to break up the distillate and so thoroughly mix it that it not only gives greater mileage but a greater power than does gasoline. Said Mr. Messner, T feel sure that within a few n1onhs practically everyone in Phoenix will be using distillate instead of gasoline"

parently the Germans are attempting method between the two, the meth cd of a series of jumps. It leaves room for serious counter attacks, as the fecapture of positions has already proved. It's success depends on the staying power of German infantry and artillery reserves.
 l have myself seen, at the begin ming of the war, soft German troops on a forced march under heavy equipment, and reports to the con- trary notwithstanding, their staying power has been proved over and over again. As at present organized, Ger man infantry is the best in the world. But whether the mobility of reserves is sufficient to make this method a success is still in doubt.
 Last summer the German general staff officially stated after Joffre's attack in Artois. that they (the Ger mans) now had it in their power to choose the moment when trench fighting would give place to open fighting. They are trying today to prove it. If they break through they will have proved it.-Gerald Morgan

FIRST ACTUAL. PICTURES T0
 BE OBTAINED
Johnny Sabra, Local Boy, Brings Back Characteris- tic Views of Motor Divis- ion on Transport Work for Gen. Pershing

For the first time in actual photo- graphs. as it was yesterday first in the words of Johnny Sabra, The Re- publican presents this morning graphic description of the work the motor division is doing in Mex leo, where an army of 10000 U. S. regulars is pursuing bands of Villa outlaws. Phoenix enjoyed the dis tinction of being the first city to read about the marvellous work be- ing done by the Pershing column, for the statement of Sabra was the first given out by anybody who had pene- trated so far into Mexico, over which no censor has exercised his blue pencil.
 It was with a kodak, belonging to sergeant in the signal corps. that Sabra secured the photographs. He brought the films to this city where they were developed and secured for publication this morning.
 They represent three phases of camp life in Mexico Three of them depict motor trucks in action, one a signal hut, where the mobile forces in the field keep in touch with the base camp and the other shows a crowd of Mexican refugees, who have taken possession of one of the big abandoned houses formerly belonging to the Mormon colonists at Ascun- cion.
 The refugees have been displaying truly grasping natures, according to Sabra. They present inflated bills to the commissary department, for every fowl they miss. One man wanted
