A Mechanical AGE.

Down in Massachusetts an effort is being made
in some localities to ascertain the extent to which the
automobile has superseded other of conveyance
especially the countryside thoroughfares. As a
sample of results the watchers country road
Saybrook Junction, last Sunday, from 10 o'clock in
the morning 6 o'clock in the afternoon counted
ninety six motorcycles twenty bicycles thirty
passengers ten horsc-d driven vehicles 600 auto
mobiles
This census is interesting in many ways, although
it may in all respects be typical The fact that
the count made on Sunday possibly accounts for
and other secular work being practically suspended
The day also accounts in a measure, for the prepon-
derance of motor vehicles for Sunday is the day
of the week when people who these horseless We

Considering the comparative chcapness of classes
of automobiles it is surprising that the prosper

lies in the luxury involved the modern motto rear
In many the farm automobile adapts itself to
both profitable business use and pleasure driving;
and it is gratifying to know that the husbandman is
coming to his own in enjoying the gift of scientists

adaptablity of these appliances countryside tour

Joseph Lowell

Because of the widespread popu-
iarity and well known ability as Il
stockman and business man. the news
of the accidental death of Joseph Low
ell last Friday morning was great
shock to this community. All OF the
'old timers here, and scores of the
new corners in the Salt River valley
know that they have lost a good friend
in the passing of Joe Lowell, whose
genuine and whole hearted interest in
the affairs of the community was
equalled only by his loyalty to his
friends and his employers. An eXcep
tionally energetic young man, he had
practically done the work of two or
binary men for a number Of years, for
in addition to acting as foreman for
one of the most important divisions Of
the big Bartlett Heard ranch, he also
supervised, in no small degree the OPP
Grafton of his own large ranches. Jos
eph Lowell was an expert judge Of
horses. and in the past ten years had
done much to improve the standards Of
the industry here. Through his long
experience, he had world Of practi-
cal information regarding local irriga-
ton and farming problems and many
of the new corners whose ranches We're
located on the south side, under the
Western and Highline canals have had
many opportunities to be grateful for
his advice.
Joseph Lowell was born in Terre
Haute. Ind. on November goth, 1875,
and moved to Pleasanton, Kans., in
1881, where he lived with his parents
| for about Is years. He came to Phoe-
nix in 1896. where for some time he
was employed by George w. Collins
In 1891 he became foreman Of the west
| end division of the Bartlett Heard
ranch making his headquarters on the
attractive quarter section now owned
| by James A. Johnson. Through his
| efforts this neighborhood was greatly
| improved. and his home place was one
! of the best known on the south side.

avenue bridge across the Salt River
was constructed, and in the hard

1t is not evidently the purpose of the Times Trb
to interfere with automobile sales. Such inter
ference would be only incidental to vigorous col
lection campaign 1t is not the sight of the automo-
biles in which the paying subscriber rides that
stirs the TimesTribune to righteous wrath, but
the conviction that he is diverting into the NAV Of
the oil trust the rate of cent and half mile
money which John D. Rockefeller does not really need
and which rightfuly belongs to the Times Tribune
who does need it.
If it only the automobile of the delinquent
brought the instamcnt plan the indignant editor
would not mourn as without hope. Some time the
would be paid for; the automobile people would
to that. But the delinquent has mortgaged him
self perpetuay the oil trust and there is longer
hope.

AUDIT BUREAU Of
CALCULATIONS IS
IN FINE CONDITION
Annual Meeting in Chicago Brings
E. Forth Reports of Progress in
Body That Defines Newspap-
ers' Basis

The Annual Convention of the Aud
it Bureau of Circulations of which
The Arizona Republican is a member,
was held in Chicago and the reports
received by it from its directors and
officers showed that the association
which is composed of publishers, ad-
vertisers and advertising agents, is in
Furnishing condition and its
growth during the last year has been
highly satisfactory to the member
ship.
The Audit Bureau of Calculations is
an organization to which newspapers
magazines, farm papers and class,
trade and technical journals cannot
belong unless they are willing to tell
what their circulation is, and not
only. to tell what it is but to swear
to it, and swear not only as to the
quantity of circulation but as to how
Nit is distributed, how it is obtained,
how much is paid and how much is
free, and what proportion of it is in
arrears. But all this is not enough
to prove that publications have the
circulatiOns they claim. After the
publishers have stated and sworn to
what circulation they have and to all
the other facts advertisers want to
know, the Audit Bureau through
trained expert examiners makes a
searching examination to find out il
what the publisher states and swears
to is correct in all particulars,
