THE REASON WHY,

[Boone News Republican
why is nothing done to control the

is in the saddle, and as long as 1t is
in. nothing will be done about cotton.

OPENING OLD IOWA MINES.

OFENING OLD IOWA MINES.
Huntington Hawkeye.1
There are new three coal mines near
New Market, in Taylor county. The
latest was opened recently on the John
Bean farm. 1t was a mine that had
been abandoned twenty years ago and
1t was cleaned out at small trouble and
cost and now the owner Is getting out
excellent coal for his own use and for
others who may be in need. One OF
'the mines Is larger enterprise, where
the coal Is hoisted by electric machin-
cry. Mr.. Bean uses his threshing en-
CINE for bringing the coal to the top.
Just why the old mine was abandoned
seems to be unknown, as 1t contains
much good coal and does not seem to
have been worked to any great extent.
There is coal in many parts of the
state, and it appears ridiculous that
the shoulo be lack Of fuel anywhere
that coal is found at no great depth
where 1t can be mined with little
trouble and in comparative safety.

EVEN STEEL MUST REST
Mechanics Say Their Engines Ges
Tired and Lie Down on tho Job.

A train pulled into a station tie
other day several hours behind time
which in itself isn't anything un-
usual these strenuous days of rail-
roading. When the engineer was
asked why he could not make the
time he said his engine was tired, that
IL had had no rest. A new employe
smiled at the fellow. for he couldn't
believe that piece Of steel, or "a
combination OF pieces of metal. actu
ally required rest But II is absoE
lutely true, and the engineer under
stands II as does no other class of
people.
An engines working hours are as
definitely fixed as mans working
hours There Is just as well defined
limit to Its endurance. 1t gets tired
pulling train, just as man ge.,
tired dragging a burden. ana tns
more tired 1t becomes the less eff
cient II is. for all the world like
human being.
In the case mentioned nothing
about tho engine was broken. Its
parts were well adjusted. But Il had
been sent out on the road for sec
ond trip after having made q Ions
laborious run, and 1t was tired and
didn't do its work as II would have
don't II had 1t ben allowed to rest for
"a hours.
And whore n piece Of metal br eaks
from much use. rs where II becomes
crystallized-it Is tired. That Is as
good a way to express 1t as any otner.
A spring worked necessarily crystal.
ICES, the scientists tell us. But the
layman. who works with metals,
know that the spring gets tired and
lies down on tho Job. as we would
say about a human being who was
worked beyond the point OF endur-
snce. The railroad men will tell you
that much OF the trouble with the
roads today Is that they haven't suf-
ficient rolling stock; that they must
use the cars and engines too much;
that they become tired and will not
perform their functions.

HADN'T SEEN $1,000 BILL
So n Seattle Hotel Clerk Had o
Stranger With Ono Arrested.

It's all right in the latest novel. Of
course, but in real life there Is no
such thing as a $1,000 bill. No one
knew this better than the night room
clerk at the Washington hotel in
Seattle.
So when suave stranger ap-
preached the desk shortly after mid
night the other night, laid down a
$1,000 bill and asked that It be
changed. tho clerk put UP a stall.

open the safe" he told the stranger.
"Will you kindly waltz"
He called one bellboy and sent him
for the auditor. Then he called an
other and whispered to him to sum.

The auditor was slow In arriving,
the stranger grew fidgety and picked

But II the auditor was slow the

went out at tho door two detectives
entered.

hissed. Follow and arrest him. He

Ford Accessory Makers
Will Have Own Show

A National Exposition for Ford Ac-
will be held in Chicago
from September 22 to 29 inclusive,
and will appeal to more than a mill
lion motorists of this country, since
it is estimated that approximately
one-half of the 100000 cars now
registered in the United States carry
the Ford nameplate on their radi-
ators.
The display of Ford accessories will
be made in the Chicago Coliseum,
scene of the annual automobile shows
that are held each winter in the IL
linois metropolis. and the promoters
are confident that all of the three
hundred exhibition spaces in the COL
losal building will be taken by the
manufacturers of fitments designed
to add efficiency and comfort to the
most utilitarian of all American au-
tomobiles.

Saxon Dealers Sign i.
Big Contracts For Year

Fullest confidence through the coun-
try that the coming months will see
nothing but increased prosperity for
the nation is indicated by the man
ner in which Saxon dealers from the
coast to coast and gulf to Canada are
contracting for next years allotment
of Saxon motorcars.
In the last two weeks many big
contracts have been closed with deal
ers in the larger cities of the country
and in number of other cities which
lie in the heart of the farming region
of the country. Every one of these
dealers has signed for a large num-
Der OF cars and in many cases num-
ber much greater than last year.
The Loveland Company, distribu-
tors Tor Buffalo. Cleveland and De-
troit. has a contract that amounts to
S1,732,000, and the Hathaway Motor
for cars to the value of $1.270,500.
Des Moines Iowa, and Philadelphia's
contracts amount to more than ST.
100000. while such smaller cities as
valued at more than 100000.
In addition to these cities many
other dealers have signed for cars in
them are the dealers at Memphis.
Spokane, Boise, Helena, Syracuse
Omaha, Neb.; Portland, Ore: Stock
ton, Cal; Albany, Cincinnati, ,Colum
bus, Hastings Neb.; Richmond, Va;
Dayton, Ohio, and Oklahoma City.
This year will see the best fall SELL
ing season we ever have had says r.
G. Getsinger, sales manager of the
Saxon Motor Car Corporation. The
slight decrease, which was felt all
over the country in the last spring.
VIII be, more than made up by the fall
buyers
With the feeling of confidence re-
stored in the country and with the
bumper crops which are now practic-
ally assured, to- say nothing. of the
big increase in industrial and manu-
featuring enterprises. the public is
now placing orders that they have
been holding off on since spring, and
many more are buying because they
are certain that business is going on
as usual.
81 believe that the selective draft
will help the motor selling situation.
With it out of the way a large num-
ber of prospective motorcar owners
will be able to select their cars,
thing they could not do until they
saw whether they were going to be
selected for military service.
This fall is going to be big one
in every line. and I believe that the
best proof of that is to be found in
the motorcar dealers who are all pre-
pairing for increased business. They
know the people and conditions and
their opinion may generally be taken
as a pretty good estimate of their own
particular locality"

Women Show Much Care

Women are the most careful driv-

fairly we'll demonstrated in competi-
tive runs in twenty-eight states.
In the recent big Liberty Bond
Contest of the Maxwell Motor Sales
Corporation of Detroit, women in all
parts of the nation obtained mileage
that puts them among the best driY-
ers. Their average mileage on a
gallon of gasoline was a great show
ing for the car that is easily handled.
The average mileage of the women
taking part was 29.0S miles.
The average mileage of all contest
ants was 29.04 miles.

list. The general average for ali con-
testants was 39.1 miles. Women made
the most mileage in Kentucky. The

Goodrich Tire Testing
Fleet Came Through City


The Atlantic fleet of Goodrich tire
testing motorcars passed through
Harrisburg this week enroute to
Pittsburgh from Philadelphia. The
fleet of five cars had on each of
these complement of Goodrich tires.
manufactured by the B. F. Goodrich
Rubber Company of Akron, Ohio,
which are being thoroughly tested
as to their endurance.
These tire-testing fleets are main
tained throughout the country by the
Goodrich Company and the results de-
termining the construction of the diff
ferent makes to be put out by the big
rubber company. 1t is the mission of
the drivers of the different cars to
put the tires through all sorts of hard
usage so that they will show, when
they finally give out, the results OF
all kinds OF weather and road condi-
tions. On some of the cars in the
fleet that passed through Harrisburg
were tires that had seen seven and
eight thousand miles of service.
Tho tourists from Philadelphia
were met at Harrisburg by w. +.
Mower, the local Goodrich represen-
tative who guided them through his
territory. This plan is followed
throuhgout the entire route. Accom-
panying the tire testers were. c. l..
