STATE ENGINEER HAS
DATA ON 1000 WELLS
IN 1000 TOWNSHIPS.

Anyone who desires to ascertain
anything concerning the under
ground water of the state,
such as the likelihood of finding a
we'll in any given locality, should
write State Engineer A. w. Mahon.
In his biennial report to the gov
ernOr, Mr.. Mahon states that during
the past two years data on 1000
wells, located in a thousand town
ships has been secured. He esti-
mates the work is rs per cent fin
ished.
Stress is laid by Mr.. Mahon upon
the Importance or securing data
showing the amount of water appro-
priated from various streams, the ac-
tual amount diverted, acres under
the ditch and acres that could be
placed under the ditch.
He also urges a change in the wa
ter right laws to conform to the more
modern and up-to-date standards
that have been adopted in neighbor-
ing western states.

CITY DRIVEN MOTORS
GET THE HARD TEST
THOUSANDS OF SAXONS IN
URBAN USE IS PROOF
OF HARDNESS.

Estimating the merit of a motor
a by the country driving alone is
not a conclusive test of it's ability and
the cry of some manufacturers that
any car will give good service on city
pavements is an contention.
Not only does the city-driven car
generally run up a greater mileage
in a season but it is subjected to a
terrific strain in the sudden stops and
starts that mark every day driving in
congested districts. While in the coun-
try, an automobile runs along at a
smooth steady rate of speed, even
though the roads may be rough.
Undoubtedly the test of a car over
rough country roads through sand
and mud gives a good estimate of the
worth of the springs and the power of
the ear, but no country driving, unless
specially arranged, will demonstrate
the flexibility of a motor, the merits
Of the brakes, or the east of handling
the ear.
To say that most any automobile
will give good service on the smooth
pavements of a city is a fallacy.
Motorists daily are finding out that
there is a marked difference in auto
mobiles in urban driving.
Naturally, the motorist wants a car
that will prove satisfactory under all
conditions and it has been conclusively
demonstrated that, so far as the motor
is concerned, the six cylinder answers
the question. AS to brakes, springs
and other parts of the motor car, they
vary with the different automobiles.
The fact that thousands upon thou
sands of Saxon motor ears are in use
today in the cities of the country is
proof of the ability of Saxon Six to
thread traffic easily

Denatured Alcohol Favored.
"a summary of the opinions of
motor car manufacturers as to the
value of various anti-freeze solutions
shows a decided preference for dena-
tured alcohol and glycerine. The
proportions for the use of the alcohol
depend upon the temperature. It will
require a five per cent solution of
alcohol to prevent freezing at rs de-
grees, and a 23 per cent solution will
take care of the water system down
to zero. AS low as 10 below, the So
luton should be 80 per cent, and if
the mercury drops to Is degrees be-
low the percentage will be IS of alco-
hol, whereas 10 more degrees below
will require a 40 per cent solution.
"AlcohOl has one undesirable fea-
ture. however, and that is it's evap-
Grating p%roclivities. But if you will
take the trouble to add a small
amount of glycerine to the alcohol
as you prepare it for the radiator,
you will greatly reduce the evapora-
ton rate. Regarding the %glycerine.
the %unbleached variety which may be
procured at practically any drug
store is cheapest and best"

MAN OF STUDEBAKER
Decided Preference for Denatured AL
cOhol and Glycerine Exhibited by
Automobile Manufacturers; Use of
Soluble Salts Advised Against Be-
Cause of Action Upon Metal.

1T was only a few weeks ago that
I publicly urged all motorists to pre-
pare their cars for the advent of zero
weather." says Max Hagelstine, serv-
ice manager of the Studebaker cor
poration, land I gave them specific
directions for the preparation of an
anti-freeze mixture that would guard
against the freezing of the water in
the cooling system of their cars.
while it is true that some motor
lists made adequate preparations for
the cold weather, it is also true that
a great many owners woke up the
other morning and found that Jack
Frost had got in his work; that the
radiator was damaged and the cylin-
ders cracked. And to my way of
radiator tubes cost a lot more than
alcohol or glycerine.
ut is not always the man who has
his first machine that is caught nap
ping. Experienced motorists are not
Invaluable, and it is that class of
owners who never a bridge IN
til they come to it that bring bust
ness to the concerns who repair radi-
ators and those makers who supply
spare parts.
Dangerous Solution.
"While the most easily prepared
solution is, perhaps, the calcium
chloride, it is absolutely the wrong
anti-freeze mixture to use. A num-
Der of cars have recently been
brought into the Studebaker service
station for repairs which, upon in
vestigation, showed tha- calcium
chloride had apparently been used in
the radiator. Unless one can secure
the chemically pure form, calcium
chloride is a mighty dangerous solu-
ton to use. The commercial calcium
chloride, commonly sold for an anti
freeze mixture. is highly injurious
because of the action of the oppo-
nents OF the cooling system. Such
alkaline solutions are productive of
an electrical action wherever two dis
similar metals are utilized, such as
the brass tubing of a radiator and
the brass or copper plates, etc. And,
too, I strongly advise against the use
of all soluble salts, because of their
harmful action on the metal.
"In addition to damaging the ra-
diator, the use of calcium chloride
may work havoc with the cylinders,
the pump and the inlet and outlet
water pipes. The owner usually has
to buy a new radiator before he can
put his car into service again, besides

H. S. Daniels of the Kissel Kar
company estimates from figures re-
Gently compiled by the department of
agriculture that tlllable lands
throughout the United States have in
the last five years increased in value
at least SO per cent, all of which is
directly traceable to the automobile.
Survey of Highway Improvement
The bulletin of the department of
agriculture, upon which this estimate
is based, is entitled Economic Sur
vey of County Highway Improve
ment' and gives facts relating to
eight counties selected as a test. Four
of these are in Virginia and one each
in New York, Alabama, Florida and
Mississippi. The increase of land
values in five years in these counties
ranges from rs to 1914 per cent.
There are 3,027 counties in the Unit
ed States.
Big Saving in Haulage.
These figures suggest fascinating
mathematics and astounding calcu-
lations. Just as an instance, the de-
partment of agriculture finds that
in the eight counties investigated the
saving in haulage costs in the five
years reviewed amounted to $627,-
400. Apply the same situation to re
whole country and the saving would
amount to the tidy sum of $237,395,-
500.
You can trace this marvellous
development to the advent O the l.
tomobile," concludes Daniels, "for
good roads have been fathered and
fostered by the automobile. All of
which goes to show that the invest
ment in cars, great as it is, is moth
ing in comparison with the benefits
and blessings that have flowed from
it"
