thousands of automobile tours this
 year. Reports from 120 branches of
 The B. F. Goodrich Rubber Company,
 where route cards and state maps are
 distributed covering logs to any camp
 in the United States, say that ten to
 twenty five per cent of the requests
 for touring information are from auto lsts making trips to Uncle Sam's big training camps.
 On account of the congested condi- tion in the vicinity of most of the big camps the Groodrich representatives advise tourists to carry along camping outfits. Most of the camps and forts
 have permitted camping in natural 1 camping locations adjacent to the miIi- tary grounds.
 There is a camp in access to almost any district of the country. The dis trict between the farthest localities and a cantonment may be spanned in
 less than three days drive. New
 England has one camp, the middle At lantic territory two, the southeast | three, the middle west five, the south
 west two and the northwest one. Here are the locations of the largest camps and road and tourist camping party information for those contem- plating trips to our soldier making | plants.
 Camp Custer-More than 200 cars 1 carry the passengers between Battle | Creek, Mich, and Camp Custer, which | is miles distant. Another concrete
 road has been started, to run from the city limits west and through the camp, | so that all traffic may run out one
 road and back the other. There are good camping grounds along the Kalamazoo river near the ] camp. The Y. M. c. A. buildings throughout the. camp have suitable comfort stations for visitors 1 Camp Devens-The roads from Bos-
 ton to Aver Mass, the site of Camp | Devens, are excellent, and the camp | also may be reached from Worcester
 and Springfield over good roads. The l camp is about a mile west of the 1 town.
 1 Camp Dix-To get to Camp Dix from Philadelphia good roads to the Della
 ware river and fair from there on are
 available. Naturally, ample hotel and
 garage accommodations are furnished
 in Philadelphia.
 1 Camp Dix at Wrightstown. N. J.. is
 reached from Philadelphia via Mason | vile, Mount Holly, Pemberton and l lLewistown.
 l Camp Dodge-Camp Dodge has the 1 selected men from Iowa, North Dakota. 1 Minnesota and several counties in cen
 tral Illinois. It is Il miles north and west of Des Moines. Iowa The road l to the camp is paved with the ex- ception of about miles, and this will
 be completed as soon as spring work l can start. Visitors are allowed almost free access to the entire camp. Camp Gordon-The road from At lanta, Ga. to Camp Gordon has been
 very bad but is now being improved
 and in a short time will be good. There
 are plenty or garages but hotels

Absence of Public Interest Was Again
 the Chief Factor.

New York, July 22.-Stocks were seemingly indifferent today to the con- tinued favorable bulletins from the western battle front, the war group re- acting one to almost three points un- der professional pressure.
 Absence of public interest was again the chief factor and rumors of the governments prospective taxation pol icy enabled the shorts to resume with some measure of success their tac- tics of the previous fortnight.
 Selling concentrated in steels, equip ments, coppers and shippings, with a sprinkling of oils, motors and miscel- laneous sha-es. Tobaccos made a better showing by reason of another advance in Sumatra Tobacco which recovered its ? 1-2 point dividend and an additic>al fraction.
 Rails began the day adversely on Readings heaviness, but led the par tial rally of the afternoon, Canadian Pacific recording an extreme gain of two points on settlement of the threat ened strike in the Dominion. New Ha- ven also was active and strong with minor western and southwestern rails.

SPORTING NOTES

Benny Kauff, the former Giant now in the army has been promoted to corporal.
 At last Ashland has woke up and canned Lambert, their umpire. Better late than never.
 Joe Sullivan has denied the charge that he is manager of the newly or ganized CD Colonials. Don't look as if this city championship would amount to much after all.
 A noticeable feature of the record breaking game in Chicago Wednesday was the clean fielding of both teams. The only error of the game was charg- ed up against Hollocher, the Cub shortstop.
 Eustis, the Wesleyan football star who is now in the aviation service had narrow escape the other day when the machine in which he was flying at Kelly Field, fell 800 feet, Eustis was not injured.

classes in Akron through the Uniyer- sity of Akron. This is a part of the governments plan to educate 90,00O men for specialized work in American | Universities this year.
 In one of the plants special class room and working benches have. been provided for the selects. Daily the men make tours of inspection through the tire making departments; listen to l lectures by department heads; repair tires that have been through every possible manner of abuse; learn how to demount and mount rims quickly; learn what to avoid in adjusting a rim to wheel; and read manuals and books dwelling on the care and repair of tires. The soldiers are drilled in quick and effective methods of repairing not only automobile and motorcycle fabric tires but also cord tires for automobile and airplane use.
 It is the plan of the government to | establish scores of American tire rel pair stations back of the lines on the Western front where American anltt balances, officers cars, signal corps cars, dispatch riders motorcycles. and all pneumatic tire vehicles and planek may instantly and efficiently have theiH shoes" cared for.
 Japan has offered every purchaser of an automobile or truck in the. ems pire $500 toward the purchase price and $50 yearly to help pay for the maintainance of the vehicle, in exe change for the privilege of speedily communicating motors when the oc4 cision demands, according to advicee received by the foreign sales departs ment of the American Tire Company
 This subsidy is intended by the ims perial government not only for thd quick requisitioning of cars, but tH promote their use and to eventually encourage their manufacture within the empire. This aggressive actio{i by Japan has still another important function. Horses are scarce in. Nip4 pon and most of the trucking is by men who pull two-wheeled carts-a
 most of the passenger traffic on 'ths streets and highways is by means ot jinrikishas. Labor is in strong de7 mand and a more general use of motor vehicles would release thousands of men for work in factories. Japan's action will add impetus tc the export of American made cars and tires, say American officials. It will be several years before Japan will be able to produce anywhere near her own consumption of motor vehicles and accessories. But three concerns in Japan are now building automobiles One of these has made about a half a dozen cars and another is assembl1 ing from parts imported from Americal

War prices have hit the national pastime and from July 1, the regula ton official league baseballs will cost two dollars each. For many years five 'bits" was top price for the best but since America entered the war twenty per cent raise was found nec- essary. Now according to trade journal, which is the recognized auth ority on the cost of sporting goods, owing to the price of labor and the difficulty in obtaining horsehide, wool and other products necessary for the manufacture of the spheres the retail cost of a league ball will be two dol lars. While the price of the cheaper grades has not been changed as yet, it is estimated that it will be about twice the present rate.
