COAL OILS USE FOR
MOTORS Is PROBABLE
DAYS OF GASOLINE AS COM
MON COMBUSTIBLE IS NUM-
BERED SAYS EXPERT.

The widespread efforts to perfect
devices which will make the use of
kerosene as automobile fuel practi-
cable are responsible for the follow
ing editorial in "The Automobile:
1t is not an easy problem in many
ways, but it is no harder than many
others that have been solved, and
there is reason to feel confident that
the days of gasoline are numbered;
at least for gasoline as the common
est auto fuel. So many inventors are
so near the kerosene carburetor that
will do anything that car be done with
gasoline that perfection cannot be far
off. A little merging of patent in
t~erests, a little give and take between
the inventors and a little really SYM
pathetic interest on the part of motor
a manufacturers are needed. Given
these three things and the problem is
solved.
If the matter is not tackled prompt
ly and squarely the European indus
tries will steal another march on the
American trade.

Motorists Bring Business to
Towns. They Visit; Should Be
Welcomed Says Jim Shoemaker

A suggestion for welcoming motor
lists has been offered by James Shoe
maker, Billings and Great Falls dis
tributor of the Studebaker. He points
out the value of the passing motorists
trade to the business of a town and
suggests that local business men get
together and take action towards get
hing some OF this business.
motorists bring business to the
towns they visit. They leave their
money with the garage man, the ho-
tel keeper, the druggist, the depart
ment store, the grocer, the meat mar
ket; in fact nearly every line of mer-
camille endeavor profits directly or
indirectly through the motorist."

CALIFORNIA; Sets Pace in Oiling
Roads and Other States Follow;
2,333,OOO Miles of Road in u. S.

There are 2,333,OOO miles of public
roads in the United States, of which
only 262,400 miles have any kind of
%surfacing.
In other words, nearly SO per cent
of u roads are dirt roads, and it
will be a quarter of a century, prob
ably, before this percentage is re-
duced to rs.
The great road problem of the
United States is to grade, drain and
maintain these roads so as to make
them of the best practical use at a
minimum annual expense.
Some progress along these lines is
evident, and in some sections very
satisfactory earth roads have been
built and are maintained in good
condition, except for a few weeks in
spring, by intelligent dragging.
Another method of maintenance,
originating in California, is being
tried, with more or less success in a
number of the Central States.
This is oiling the roads. Its pur-
pose is to suppress dust; for in so do
ing the road surface will remain
smooth longer than when the road is
Cut Bank pioneer press. [volume] (Cut Bank, Mont.) 1909-current, 1916-10-13

dusty, and there is less mud in wet
weather.
But oiling roads has to be done in
diligently, or it will make conditions
worse instead of better.
1t is useless to oil a dirt road which
is not properly drained and graded.
If the surface is Uneven oil col
lects in shallow depressions and soft
n the surface, so that after the first
heavy rain the travel tends to make
mudholes.
If there is dust on the road the oil
combines with the dust to form a sort
of mat, which quickly breaks up into
large flakes, or scales.
If the road is in proper condition
to receive the oil, and the right kind
of oil is used, the oil percolates into
the pores of the earth for a depth of
several inches, sealing them with an
asphalt binding material which unites
the surface into a tougher mass than
the original surface.
The oil cannot make the road any
harder, for only stone or gravel will
accomplish that, but it will prevent
the displacement of the earth parti-

Complete Loop the Best.

When a gasoline feed pipe is
Topped or otherwise bent in order to
avoid the rigidity and liability to
breakage of a straight pipe, air locks
and consequent interruptions of the
flow of fuel T likely to occur after
filling the tank unless sufficient gas
oline is poured in to produce the pres
sure required to drive out the air that
will be trapped if the loop or band is
made in a vertical plane. If the loop
is turne SO as to lie horizontal, how
ever, there will be no such trouble.
incidentally a complete loop is the
best safeguard against crystallization
and consequent breakage of the pipe.

Father DeSmet Brought
First Vehicle to the State

In these days when thousands of
automobiles annihilate distance on the
good highways of Montana it is in
teresting to recall that the first
wheeled vehicle came to the state rs
years ago. Father DeSmet, the pio-
neer Jesuit priest brought one wagon
and four carts on his second expedi-
ton into the west in 1S41. The start
of the expedition was from st. Louis,
and the vehicles were drawn by oxen.
The difficulties of this trip, over I'M
broken trails, were of a most discour-
aging character, but Father DeSmet
made the long trek and finally arrived
with his train at a point near where
Stevensville, the Bitter Root town,
now stands. Father DeSmet left ST.
Louis in the early spring and arrived
at ~Stevensville on September "a, the
journey lasting six months.
These vehicles were the first the
Indians had ever seen, and were the
occasion of much comment among the
red men. The oxen, too, were strange
beasts to them, and they were of the
impression that they were a new
species of tame buffalo. Among the
more hostile Indians the curiosity
that the wheeled conveyances excited
had a good effect, and in their amaze
ment at this new machine of locomo-
ton, crude as it was, but wonderful
to them, they forgot to make wal on
the little expedition.

merely pleasing to find at the en-

with Welcome on it and another

motorist-and 1 believe that such is
the feeling of every motorist.
"But even more can be done to
welcome the motor traveller. Each
business man and citizen should 90
out of his way to make the motorist
feel welcome, whether this spirit is
shown in the pleasantness with which
you direct the stranger, or in any
of the ways in which you can make
his stay in your city agreeable.

road is adapted to carry.
If the oil surface is Immediately
covered with a thin layer of clean,
hard sand, the travel will not disturb
the oil and travellers will suffer less
inconvenience.
The right kind of oil should be
used, for there are some kinds which
act as lubricants, and ruin a road in
stead of improving it.

MAYOR AND CURTIS
 DEBATE AT LAST
lmpromptu Battle Delights Crowd
 in BentZ'S Hall

A mild idea of what a threc hour debate between Councilman Curtis and Mayor Quigley would be like was given an audience ln EentzS hall in Clark street last night when a brief clash between the rival candidates took place. The affair was unexpected and came when Councilman Curtis entered the hall just as the mayor was finishing one of his scheduled addresses and took up the cudgel against the Quigley administration. Mayor Quigley re- mained to hear the speech. At the close somebody asked Mr. Curtis if he hadn't something further to say along the line of spe- cial criticism and the councilman from the third took up the Lafayette street paving matter. He declared it to be an unsatisfactory job and also spoke of grading jobs on North Bnr- ritt and Broad street where the cost in each case proved greater than the estimate.
 Mayor Replies
 Mayor Quigley asked for permiS~ sion to reply to this criticism and placed the blame for the engineer
  former city engineer, whom the mayor removed from office. The mayor declared Councilman Curtis was using Nr. OldcrshaWs figures. MT. Curtis replied that he was not there to defend MT. OldershaW. lie knew all engineers made mistakes and asked if il was Mr. OldershaW who did the engineering on the La1- ayette street job. It was admitted Councilman Curtis said Mr. Hall also did engineering on Whiting street job and the Semi-permanent paV1nG work last year, in which the costs greatly exceeded the engineers fig urs. That MT. OldershaW's estimates were unusually accurate was main tained by Mr. Curtis, who quoted the word of the late Edward Whit man, a former superintendent of streets.
 MT. Curtis also attacked Mayor Quigley'S claims on the cost of cor structing subways, declaring that comparison between the West Main and Elm street jobs could not be made on a basis of duct feet ore subway contains many more cOnduits than the other and therefore the cost per duct feet would be cheaper in the newer subway. BentZs hall was well filled when the debate took place and both speakers were ap- plauded freely-and seemingly i'm partially.

At Lithuanian Hall.

Mayor QuigiCN also addressed an audience last night in Lithuanian hall on Park street and took Occa- sion to reply to some of the cri- icisms being directed against his ad- miniStratiOn by Councilman Curtis. Mayor Quigley told his audience that he was coming before the voters for reelection not on his record as an alderman but as mayor of the city during the past two years. In speak ing of his record as a mayor, he want ed it understood that he was not taking all the credit for the accom- plishments for the past two years. Mayor Quigley told of the work of the present board of public works and claimed the new system inaug- urated under his administration had resulted in better streets and better street lighting and that the work had been done more economically.
 The Lafayette Street Job.
 The mayor said he had noticed in the evening papers that Lafayette 1 street property owners were protest = 1 ing against paying for the paving 1 job and informed his audience that l the board Of compensation and as sessment had yet to make the assess | ment. His honor then inferred thai Councilman Curtis was backing tho 1 Lafayette street property owners il
 their threat to go to court over fine
 matter. He expressed the belief tha
 when the assessment is levied il
 will be satisfactory as the cost i
 only $1.25 a yard against $3.25 fo
 wood blocks and brick at S2.56
 yard. Mayor Quigley's talk thcl
 turned to defense of the engineer
 ing department in reference to es
 inmates on the Whiting street an'
 other jobs which Councilman Curti
 claims were exceeded by the costs.
