UN HE STRANGEST cavalcade

TN HE STRANGEST cavalcade
 that ever decorated the
 streets of Phoenix drew up in front of Harry Effron's junk de- pot at Tenth and Madison streets yesterday morning. It consisted of two automobiles loaded with old iron and other junk equally heavy The automobiles did not come in under their own steam. The motive power was furnished by six burros lngeniously attached 10 the train in such a way that there would be the least lost motion
 This arrangement was the result of the calculation and experiments of C. R. Pettingill, the engineer and owner of the outfit. Four of the burros were hitched abreast to the rear automobile and two in front of them. A tongue had been at tached to the automobile and a timber spliced to it was fastened to the rear of the automobile in front, so that the burros pulled one of the Vehlcles and pushed the other.
 Not Pleasure Vehicles
 There was a division of opinion among those who watched the con trivance as to the reciprocal effect of it It was the theory of some that the automobile in front being pushel along, pulled the other. But the theory was hardly sustained.
 MT. Pettingill had three boys with him but they were not travelling merely for the luxury of travelling; or to view the scenery; they were working their way. Two of them were required to steer the foremost automobile while one of them as sisted Mir. Pettingill, the helmsman of the rear one. Mir Pettingill has originated device by which he can reduce man-poWer He has not vet attached it but if actual practice corroborated his theory he will be able to steer both machines from the sea of the rear one.
 eurros Not Consulted
 It was suggested that he might have hitched the burros to the fore

TIMELY WAR TIPS
 GIVEN MOTORISTS

There is much that any car own CT, whether or not he is a mechanic can do to make sure he is getting the most out of his machine" says Billy Ferguson of the Ferguson X KeeIer Company who handle OlGsmobiles in this vicinity.
 Tn the first place. he can make sure that his carburetor is set to feel the leanest practical mixture of gas into his engine. This makes a world of diff ference. not only in the amount of fuel consumed but in the condition of the motor. If a too rich mixture is used, the combustion chambers and valves will foul quickly and this means trip to the service station that will involve considerable expense. If a man does not trust himself to make this slight adjustment, it is only a moments work for an experienced garage man. Of course, everyone finds it necessary to change the carburetor when winter comes, but it is advisable to check up three or four times during the year to make certain of best possible results
 Here at the Oldsmobile garage. we never get through warning new own CTS particularly that fabrication is the very life blood of an automobile An iiiPi oPtiiS oiitN anu ceiStu Ns'i To Oil the short route to the junk heap, and in these days especially. it is shame to allow good machinery to deteriorate through negligence.
 Of course there are dozens of things" continued Mr. Ferguson, that contribute to the long life of a car, but here are a few tips that will prove of every day usefulness. The use of good graphite grease in universal joints will give far more mileage than ordinary cup grease. In this connec- ton, it is absolutely essential to screw the plug in tight after filling to prevent otherwise unavoidable leakage
 Very often the front wheels of a car are thrown out of alignment by some trivial accident such as glancing off a curb. This goes unnoticed until hard i steering, or excessive tire wear. or both, warn the owner that something is wrong. It is a good idea to make an occasional inspection. This is a simple enough matter because the front edges of the rims should be B of an inch closer together than the rear edges.
 Practically all ignition, starting and | lighting troubles can be avoided by having the storage battery tested at fortnightly intervals and by checking up once month or so to make sure that all the electrical connections arc | snug.

most machine and have used the other for a trailer. But that sug- gestion came from those who do not know much about burros and the difficulty of directing their move mentS Under the Pettingill system they have nothing to say about it. the man or boy at the steering wheel-in front outlines the journey.
 The machines were not equipped with pneumatic tires but steel rims had been substituted for them. Mir Pettingill believes that he has solved the transportation problem and that the horse, after the auto mobile manufacturers had vainly tried to put him on the shelf, will not become a back number. The mountains he says. are full of bur ros and he had men out catching wild burrOS for him. Under his con- trivance they need no training or breaking. They are put into har- ness and placed between the auto mobiles and there is nothing for them to do but pull and keep out of the way.
 From Port Agua CaIiente
 This cargo of junk originated at Agua Caliente, 100 miles distant The trip was made in four days At no point along the road were the speed regulations of the state violated, so said Mir. Pettingill. He points to the fact that he was not arrested as proof that at no time did he exceed the 20 mile limit.
 The junk in the two machines weighed 2S00 pounds. The price he received for it was $50. It will thus be seen, taking into account the four days of the haul, the time of the boys and the burros. the wear and tear of the automobiles, to say nothing of the time that must have been spent in collecting the load, that the business of Mr. Pettingill is somewhat less remunerative than that of the Standard Oil company. But he has one advantage over the Standard Oil; he will not have to fool around and have people both ering him about excess profit taxes.

1t is surprising that the American

been actually strengthened by these ak

BY far the best game of the series Of

Saturday between the 112th Infantry and
the Washington team, the 112th being
held scoreless for nine innings and the
Washington scoring two runs in the third

sixth. The Washington team secured
only seven hits off the Infantry pitcher
and the 112th only two hits off the
Washington.
Johnson, Harper and Waldbauer
Johnson, Harper and Waldbauer twirled
in turns for the Nationals. For the two
innings that Johnson pitched he retired
the soldiers in order. Only one ball was
knocked to the outfield and that was a
flour fly which Danny Cass grabbed.
Harper twirled three rounds and didn't
allow a hit. He walked one batter and
hit another, but neither man reached
second. He struck out three.
Waidbauer pitched the rest of the game
and showed a world of stuff He allowed
two hits but both of these were infeld

Foster was the only Griffman to hit
safely In the opening inning and his
blow was wasted Judge walked to open
