IN MUNICIPAL COURT.

The adventures of Thomas Destree
in an automobile that seemed to insist
upon running onto the sidewalks and
attempting to climb trees was briefly
chronicled last week. Thomas paid 80
and costs for speeding. After smash
ing up a good Aivver on culvert it
was hard to be fined. But the worst
was to come. After several days in
Jail he raised the money to pay his
fine but he had no sooner settled with
the clerk of the municipal court than
another warrant was served in which
Mr.. Destree was charged with having
driven an automobile while intoxicated.
He might have pleaded that he didn't
drive it. Apparently no one was
driving the car.
Judge Schmidt instead of tining
Destree again gave him sentence OF
60 days at hard labor without the alter
native of a fine. This is the first jail
sentence ever imposed here for VIC
lation of automobile regulations.

MANITowoC HAY MARKETING

which are turning out many tons ol
hay each day. Mr.. John Fl. Thornton
press on Commercial ST., is averaging
from % ID 30 tons per day. At the
present writing he is paying $40 Sc
per ton.
The yearly shipments Of hay to Mich
igan from this port are becoming enor'
nous, and it is claimed that our hay
brings the highest market price where
ever it is shipped, which may be taken
as positive proof that our farmers are
no blue or wild grass stock raisers.

GOOD TIME.-Mr. John Tufts four
year-old colt, with little or no training,
made 1902 time in the trotting match
on the Fair Ground last Friday, the
last day of the Fair. We are not the
best authority as to matters OF the
turf" but take the liberty of suggest.
ing that the above time is seldom beat
by unframed four year-old colts; and
venture the opinion that in case some
man had this promising young horse,
who would properly train and fit him,
he might be made one of the fastest
horses in the State.

Paul Lindeneau of Two Rivers paid
fines only three weeks ago for disorder
ly conduct and driving an automobile
while intoxicated. That wasn't
enough. He had to hand wallop to a
policeman. He was undergoing the
process OF being pinched for disorderly
conduct one day last week at Two Riv'
ers when the cops foot slipped and he
left an opening that no one who cher
ishes an antipathy for policemen could
resist. Lindeneau just handed the

the coming year will prove q record breaker from the standpoint of increas- ing and flourisiling business.
 That the Federal company should be affected by this increased business, is, strictly speaking. direct tribute to the success of it's product, con- tinued Mr Githens. Take our auto mobile tires for instance. Today, 1t is hard to find a motor car enthusiast who has not at least heard of the Federal double cable base feature
 The advantage of this exclusive Federal improvement and its popular jtv is due to the fact that 1t prevents inside wear against the rim thereby enabling the owner of a car to get longer and better service out of his tires.
 Four unstretchable cables do the trick. They anchor the tire so se- curely to the rim that the longest, hardest use cannot make them shift their position This keeps the toe Of the bead from tube -pinching, prevents rim cutting and blowouts just above inc rim. and it absolutely insures the car owner against the danger ot nav ing a tire blow off the rim.
 For the reasons l have mentioned. the Federal double cable base tires are gaining in popular favor overy day and this added to the fact that our general business was never iQ more prosperous condition means that our 1 1918 sales will eclipse all previous rec ords"

FEDERAL SALES
 HEAD OPTIMISTIC

II. A. Githens, general sales mana ger of the Federal Rubber company is often referred to as being one of the best posted tire men in the business. His knowledge of the different phases of the rubber industry together with his years of practical selling experience, has put him in closer touch with gen eral business conditions, north, south, east and west than does the line of en- deavor of the average person.
 As sales manager of the big Federal plant at Cudahy, Wisconsin, MT. Gith ems spends a good part of his time traveiing around the country gathering up information at first hand on busi- ness conditions in general and sizing up the tire situation in particular.
 T should liked to have had few of the calamity shouters along with me on my last trip through the west, said MT Githens the other day at the fac tory. It would have opened the eyes of some of these people who are con- tinually harping on hard times and general business depression.

CALLS AUTOMOBILE RESERVE TANK FOR
 NERVOUS ENERGIES

A man buys an automobile now be- cause he wants it as a reserve tank to renew his thinking power. He uses his car as a nerve tonic Fresh air, new sights, keep him going on high after he gets back to the office. He must have some quick diversion from work to keep in the race. He no longer looks at his car as a pleasure car. but as au energy storehouse which he can draw on at any time
 The motor car is a short cut to more work. in other words you can cut across instead of going around" said John Tainsh general sales manager of the Mitchell Motors company, Inc, of Racine, Wis
 Rest cures, nerve settlers, and get ting away from the old grind can all be taken at one dose sitting behind the steering wheel out on the country road, or new city streets. And it's as essen tial that the men behind the lines at home have this to fall back on as their regular meals. A car owner can get more sleep, more exercise. more play and do more work than ever before. And these very things are necessary now that the country over is short of men and extra burdens are thrust upon the shoulders of those at home"

 The seating arrangement of the Mitchell club sedan, 4S-horsepower, and the Mitchell junior sedan, 40-horse- power, both 5-passenger closed cars is such that three large persons can tour comfortably in the rear seat. And the front seats are so spaced as to allow plenty of elbow room for the driver thus affording solid driving comfort Hitherto cars of the finer class have won their fame from one or two out standing features. but the 31 extra features, many exclusive to Mitchell cars, have not been overlooked in these two models.
 The comparatively low price of the Mitchell closed cars, s1550 to s2S50 is due to the fact that 95 per cent of the car is built in the big Mitchell factory a Racine

The gear ratio properly is the ratio of the number of teeth on one gear to the number on the gear in mesh with it In cars the gear ratio as usually given refers to the ratio in the rear axle. Thus to l means that are four times as many teeth on the large ring gear as there are on the driving pinion. This means that when the car is in direct drive the engine will turn over four times to one revolution of the rear wheels.
