AUTOMOBILE STUDENTS
CANNOT FIND A FORD
IN NEED OF. REPAIRS

Though the entire class is anxious
to inspect the inner workings OF a Ford
car. machine of that make cannot be
secured for the purposes of the stu
dents in the auto course, according to
President Frank il. Ball of the State
Normal school, Santa Barbara, Cal.
To the local chamber of commerce
President Ball was telling what he
termed the chain of bad luck which
had prevented tn, delivery to the
school of a Ford car for repair
Our class has IS members, eight OF
whom are women" said Mr.. Ball to-
day. You know we take damaged
cars, repair or rebuild them simply for
the practical experience which the stu
dents will obtain.
I'VE have had all sorts and makes
of cars, except Ford. This class in
practical work wants a car of that
make, and am appealing to the news
papers and the chamber of commerce
to find us one"
Strength of construction that keeps
the car in service every day in the
year. and the Ford simplicity which
enables the owner to care for his own
car and make any adjustments neces-
sary-these are the reasons why Ford
cars are comparatively independent OF
repair shops.

MAIN ROAD SYSTEMS
PLANNED BY STATES

That the states are preparing for ac-
tive and comprehensive road improve
nent under the terms of the federal
aid road act is clearly indicated by the
letters from the state highway depart
ments to the good roads board of the
American Automobile association.
Some OF these letters were published
in the February number of American
Motorist, and others appear in the cur
rent issue.
The outstanding policy of the states
for the most part. as CLEANED from this
correspondence, is to apply the federal
funds to the construction of main high
ways forming part of definite sys-
tenn. designed to benefit the entire state
rather than to serve mere neighborhood
convenience. The legislatures seem to
be In accord with this policy, and as a
result, most of the legislation reported
by committees. and now pending, will
have the effect Of broadening the pow
ers of the highway departments and Of
providing ways and means for meeting
the federal aid and using 1t toward the
building Of comprehensive highway
systems.
Another far reaching result of the
federal road act is the strengthening
of the policy of state management of
main highways. The act requires that
the state shall deal with the govern
ment through a state highway depart
11s, ~: ~
be exercised by the state highway de-
partment. The legislation now being
enacted by the several states will be
a great advance in the direction OF
state management and will in a very
marked degree promote the efficiency
of highway work generally throughout
the entire country.
Thus the beneficial effects of the
federal aid road act are already appar.
ent before a single construction projcc,
has been begun.

Can you imagine an object two thou

1t isn't very likely that you can
measure, much less see an object Of
such minute proportions, unless YOU

MANY AUTOMOBILES
FALL BY WAYSIDE

According to table published in
Motor Age, 24l automobiles which
once represented the hopes Of as many
makers, are built no more," said IL. S.
Daniels OF the kssel Kar.
Every initial letter in the alphabet,
appear in the list and there are many
names that even those in the industry
will have difficulty to recall.
How many motor wise laymen who
pride themselves on a tongues end la
den with facts about the industry, can
remember the following cars?
"Alpena, Badger, Gina, Dragon, Ew-
ing, Fuller. Gleason, Holsman, Indiana,
Jewell, Komet, Lion, Marion, Nance,
Orson, Parry, Queen. Ricketts,, Sultan,
Naveller, Van Dyke, Vail, Yale and
Zip.
Now if there were an Ursus and
a NcrXcs added the list would be conf
plete. But all joking aside, isn't there
in this q lesson to prospective car buy
ers? Can one be too particular about
the experience and permancncy Of the
manufacturer? The difficulty and ex-
pense of getting requirements for cars

FORD PLANT CAPACITY,
SERIOUSLY TAXED BY
HEAVY WINTER DEMAND

Immediate orders will have prompt
attention, but delay in buying at this
time may cause you to wait several
months for your car" Such is the in
formation contained in an announce
ment from the Ford Motor company,
which is being published in all parts of
the country by the company and it's
agents. The announcement goes fur
ther. and explains that the distribu-
ton of Ford cars will be confined to
such agents as have orders for imme-
'diate delivery to retail customers.
While the Ford Motor company is
prepared, at the present time to fill I'll
orders calling for immediate delivery
of cars. disappointment is foreseen for
great many people who intend or
dering Fords later. in the expectation
OF being able to get their cars when
they are ready to use them.
The publication of this announce
ment reveals an unusual state of at
fairs and supplies an explanation of the
scarcity Of motor cars on the mar
ket.
Since August /, 1916, the Ford Motor
company alone has placed close to $780,
900 new cars in the hands Of retail
buyers, and the capacity of the Detroit
factory and it's branches has been in
creased to 5000 finished cars per day,
Even with this unparalleled production.
the Ford company is Just keeping
abreast Of demands.
The principal reason for the present
situation Is the increase in cold
weather drivers as compared with pre-.
vious years. This winter, as never
before. the motor buying public has
appreciated the all-season utility of
Ford cars AMI, as a result, has taken
all the cars as fast as they could be
produced.
In former years. there has usually
been a slackening of the demand in
the winter months, during which
agents could stock surplus cars in
anticipation of heavy buying during
the spring and summer months. Now,
however. while the later demands are
likely to be greater than before, the
storerooms are bare--the agents have
no surplus cars to store. They can Sc
cure Just enough cars to keep UP with
current orders. Hence the company's

DIXON SUPERIORITY.

Resta and Aitken and Peugeot. These
were names to conjure with in the au
tomobile racing classics during the
year 1916. This pair of speed wizards
drove their Peugeots, one or the other
first across the finish line on Is diff
ferent occasions. They averaged q
speed of 96.92 miles an hour. In ev-
cry race their cars were Dixon -lubri

fessional driver very often adopts when
his motor is cold.
During continued cold spell it
would be decidedly advantageous for
the motor car owner to use fresh oil
frequently. draining the oil pan and
washing 1t thoroughly before refilling.
OF course, 1t would hardly be possible
for an owner to make chemical anal
ysis of the old oil. to determine wheth-
err or not its lubricating qualities had
been exhausted. but from it's consis-
tency it should be easy to decide IL
fresh oil is needed. However. with the
coming of the warmer months, it will
not be necessary to do this quite so
often. This may add slightly to the
operating expense. but it certainly cam
not be nearly SO expensive as the in
stallation Of new bearings, pistons, and
possibly a set of cylinders"
