GIVES POINTERS FUR 4 RAINY DAY
Warns Against Silly Spinning of Wheels When Auto
 Gets Stuck In Arizona Adobe Mud

Were all the dollars that are given farmers and others for drag ging unhappy autoists out of mud, snow and sand, given to one person, John b. would have a rival said c. II. Howard, manager local E. r. Goodrich Rubber company depot.
 The Goodrich Rubber company, all ways first to aid the motorist has just sent information on the correct manner of getting traction from tires when in a hole or rut, that will be of interest to Phoenix auto owners.
 Slower the Better
 Most people do not know that the slower a wheel revolves. the more traction it has. Nine men out of ten, when stuck in the mud will shift into low gear and race their motors for dear life. This is injurious to both tire and motor.
 If low fails, they will then try second speed. With the wheels going at such a pace, it is impossible for them to get any traction, even if straw or twigs are placed beneath them.
 The effect is usually to dig a deep hole into which the wheel sinks, thereby only increasing the difficulty. Why some owners in this predica- ment will continue the silly racing of motors, now backing and now trying to go forward, some one-~less tech nical and more philosophical will have to explain.
 Give Motor a Chance
 However. if motorists will take the tip of the Goodrich Rubber company they can avoid the terrors of self dug grave by keeping in mind this one fact: the slower a wheel turns .he more traction it has.
 Now, assuming one to be in a place with no traction: clear away my stone, large stick or other solid impeachment. and lay straw, twigs or other similar material-the English always carry a strip of chicken wire for awkward situations-in front of the wheel which is doing the slipping Then put the car in low, only speed ing your motor sufficiently to take the clutch without staling. Ther slow down the engine until either one of two things happen, viz, the cal moves or the engine stalls.
 If the engine stalls, start it agair and begin all over If the car starts repross the impulse to step on tho accellerator. keep the engine turning slowly.
 Use Your Brake

PURCHASER OF TIRE MUST KNOW WHAT
 HE |S GETTING

The day of buying a pig in a poke when it is a question of tires, is rapidly passing" commented MT. F. C. Millhoff, general sales manager of the Miller Rubber company, Akron, Ohio. "Of course the tire industry is no exception. AS other manufacturers become more experienced, they too, learn to stabilize quality, and thus remove the uncertainty of satisfac- tion in buying their products. There is yet to come the clothing manu- facturer, who definitely guarantees that the clothes he makes will last a given time, or money back But it is a fact, nevertheless, that we buy certain brands with the assurance and the confidence that we can ex- pect a certain length of service"
 It will be remembered that some time ago the Miller Rubber company announced uniform tires. Not tires simply alike in appearance-but tires that, under similar conditions, wear alike. MT. Millhoff in this interview is justifying the motorst in expect ng every tire that he buys to measure up to the best of that maker. lie continued:
 Tire manufacturers have long re- cognized the need for uniformity ir tire building. To arrive at this meant the solving of a problem that has been both vexatious and costly tc the motorist. Every motorist who has driven a car long enough, at some
Arizona republican., 1918-02-17

time or other has been confronted with this difficulty If he has been lucky he has obtained tire that has given him between 5000 and 10000 miles. But the unfortunate, as well as the unprofitable part of it is. the tire fails at less than 1000 miles.
 Tt was not problem of more knowledge of compromising rubber, or of vulcanizing, or of the multiplicity of processes involved in building tires. It was wholly and solely a question of uniformity in each and every one of these. A chance, if uniformity were to be realized, called for the elimination of variables. Building tires, as most everyone knows, is mostly handwork. Then, tires must necessarily differ about as the men building them vary in their work. To rid the factory of variables meant to confine the tire building to men chosen for their personal efficiency.
 Miller has brought about this change in it's factory. Miller tires are now built by master builders only Yet scientific records check even the careful work of these men. These records show that their personal ef- ficiency average is 96 per cent. Less than 1 per cent of all the tires they build ever calls for adjustment Mil Ter does not maintain that it has achieved anything phenomenal but it does feel that it has taken a colossal stride forward in stabilzing mileage in tires, and thus enabling the mo- torist to practice the utmost tire con- servation."

 MAKING RICHES IN THIS STATE
Nos Angeles Examinerl


 The success which has attended the growing of cotton in the Salt River valley this year has brought prosperity to Phoenix and other towns in the valley, according to J. B. Magee, manager of the Los An geles branch of the United States Rubber company, who has just re- turned from an extended trip through Arizona. MT. Magee was formerly located at Phoenix for the United States Rubber company and declares Arizona's present prosperity far exceeds anything the state has hitherto known.
 Between the new cotton industry and the high prices for copper, as well as silver, Arizona is booming" said Magee last week. Arizona pro- duces more copper than any other state in the union and turned out over TOO 100000 pounds last year at war prices.
 All this has affected the automo- bile market very favorably, and many cars are being sold all over the state. It must be confessed that road conditions in Arizona are not very favorable for comfortable auto mobile travel.

slipping back, if possible. Or better yet, have someone behind with a block or brick to block the wheel against slipping back.
 If the brake is used to hold the car, which will be the ease if all alone, do not release it before en- gazing the clutch when you try again. The engine has power enough to turn the wheel slowly, even if the brake is on. As soon as it has taken hold, re- lease the brake.

burner is inserted through the CRATES
and left until the furnace is going
well again.
There Is no good reason why the
supply pipes to the closet and the
bathtub should not be taken from the
wall instead of from the floor as is
usually done. Taking them from the
wall leaves the floor with three less
distractions and that Is a big item
to the person who has to keep the
floor clean.
The builder should always consult
the housewife about fitting up the
closets, and be generous with the
shelves. Every closet should have at
least one shelf two feet wide On
which blankets and quilts can be laid
without falling of. When two closets
adjoin and 1t Is possible to have an
outside window In only one of them,
stop the partition between them a foot
from the ceiling. This gives an OPEN
ing for light and ventilation. A sash
a be put in If desired Wherever
electricity Is available, closets should
be provided with an electric light.
This is sometimes made to operate
automatically by the opening Of the
closet door.
Plenty Of Light for Kitchen.
The height of the sink should be
from 80 to AZ inches, depending, Of
course, on the height Of the person
who is going to use it. Most sinks
are very much too low. There always
should be a window near or directly
above the sink and the kitchen lights
should be arranged so that a person
working at the sink or range will not
have to work in the shadow. The
kitchen windows should be SO inches
or more from the floor and extend to
within IL or Is inches of the ceiling.
This allows a table to be set against
the wall without coming up into the
window, and 1t also gives better light.
Modern kitchens are built rather

Anything which adds to the con-
venience of the house or to the ease
with which it can be kept clean is
sure to make a great hit with the
housewife and she is pretty apt to
mention Ii TO her friends who are
about to build. Now there are. a great
many things which are seldom called
for in the plans and specifications, but
which add greatly to the comfort Of
the home. Some of these things cost
nothing at all but a little forethought,
and the others such a small amount
that the added prestige will more than
repay the builder for the money spent
putting them In. Following is a de-
scription of some Of them that have
been provided. for In the good-looking,

You never saw a happier bunch In
your life than we were when we piled
into the lifeboats and started for the
Cassard. The old ship looked pretty
good to us, you can bet, and we said
hf we never put our hoofs on that place
again 1t would be soon enough.
We were shelled on our way out to
the Cassard, and one boat was over

wounded. But we did not pay n
attention to that sheiiing-the Turks

all we cared.
/ noticed that when we came near
the Cassard the other boats held up
and let u launch get into the lead,
and that we circled around the Cas-
sard's bows and came up on the star
board side. which was unusual. But
I did not think anything of 1t until 1

side boys lined up, and the Old Man
was there, with the ships steward
beside him.

Old Man slapped me on the back and

When people ask me what I have

All of us were certainly glad to be
aboard the Cassard again. and If any
place eve looked like home to me II

very high and we were therefore or

As usual. when we got to Brest there

having-just CRUISING around waiting
for something to happen.
We had not been there very long be-

for We ran into two enemy cruisers
which / afterwards heard were the
VERT and Kaiserliche Marine-one on
the stnrbonrd and one on the port.
How they had managed to sneak up
so hear us u do not know. They
opened up on us at not much more
than a thousand yards and gave us a
hot time from the start, though with
any kind Of gnnnery they should have
done for us thoroughly.

When I looked around l saw that
our real position was to the right Of
where the artillery was, and that there
were three lines OF trenches with
French infantry In them. So the
trenches / had come from were more
like outposts than anything else, and
were cut of. ! felt pretty sure, then.
that the boys In them would never

then / remembered what the artillery
officer had said and I figured l would
have to go back and stay with them
or bring them back. Either way there
was not one chance In u hundred that
any Of us would make 1t. Because
when I got through 1t was really just
n miracle. and nobody would have
thought 1t could happen.
Then the officer told me to go back
TO the beach, where our naval guns
were. and that I was detailed to them.
Maybe you do not think / was gladf
But there was rough work still ahead
of me. because when I got behind the
third line l saw a wide open field that
was light gray from the shell smoke
hanging over 1t, and ! could see the
fiashes where the big ones were doing
their work. and I had to go through
that field.
I fell time and again, sometimes

it--only I was thirsty again. and was

thing about going through that field,
and you might say the next thing /
knew was when I was overtaken by
a dispatch runner. and got In a tin
tub at the side of a motorcycle and
was taken to the guns.
