Seas of 'Dobe Mud

The third day found the party at
Lovelock, Nevada, in pouring rain.
The harder it rained, the stickier and
more tenacious became the 'dobe mud.
In places the pools were hub deep. This
mud was cement-like in its consistency
it took pick and shovel to remove it
from the wheels. Yet the Studebaker
car pulled sturdily along and showed
ample reserve power for conditions even
more difficult. This lasted for three days
until they reached Salt Lake City.

No Special Preparations

On May Goth last, this Studebaker car
left San Francisco as the pilot car for a
caravan of advertising men going to the
St. Louis convention.
No special preparations were made as
far as the car was concerned. The trip
was to be long one--but nothing I'M
usual was expected.
The first two days were pleasant and
the roads were good.
