TRACTOR NOVEL; TIES WILL bE SHOWN IN GREAT VARIETY
 COMING ARIZONA sTATEFA|R
Salina, Kan, Tractor Show
 Furnishes Ideas Which
 May Be Tried to Ar vantage at Exhibit Here

Undoubtedly one of the striking fea- lures of the coming state fair will be the tractor section for the exhibit of the United States government depart ment of animal husbandry and the agricultural exhibit will serve to at tract up-to- the minute farmers to Phoenix and the fair from all quarters Of the state This cannot help but make it a fine opportunity to display tractors and while tractors and farm machinery have always been a big fea- ture of the fair, they will probably be bigger feature this year than ever before.
 One of the successful shows of the kind was that Salina. Kas., which ran last month and which was attend ed by scores of thousands of interested farmers from all parts of the mid west. There were tractor blowing con- tests, just as sporting as any races ever run, tractor stunt exhibits and educational tractor features which proved their worth over and over again.
 1 One of the novelties of the Salina affair was the way people were taken to the demonstration fields. Trailer wagons were hitched behind tractor pullers and then loaded with specta tors the outfit would run off 10 the 1 field. One tractor carried as many as ] 25 people at a time to the field. really making a demonstration all of its own. | Some idea of the size of that demon- stration may be secured from the fact 1 that there were as many as 2S4 ma chimes demonstrated in a single day.
 Some of the big exhibitors placed their exhibits in tents they put up | themselves.
 Along with the tractors an elab- crate and complete line of implements to trail behind the machines will un- doubtedly be shown at the coming Arizona state fair. There is almost no limit to the devices which can be se- cured to make farming easier and more successful and the new ideas will undoubtedly be of great interest to Ari
 zona farmers.

Train of Trucks
 From Boston &@
 Sam lFr amciSc co

During the past week there ar rived in San Francisco three ma chine train of trucks which made the transcontinetal run in just 20 days from Boston where the start Of the long journey was made. The three trucks carried full load of arplane parts so that several machines could be assembled in San Francisco from the goods they brought. They made the trip under the watchfuI eye of the government which had this test run checked to study truck utility.
 In the long journey there was not a single nishap and the trip was made in fine style and in better time than anticipated. So successful was the trip that the man commanding the little train of auto trucks be- lieves such jaunts from east to west and backwards will become the reg u!ar thing.
 The successful trip indicates again to what wonderful stage of perfec- ton the modern heavy truck has been brought. But few years ago such trip would have been deemed absolutely impossible.

Expert Tells How to Secure
 Best Results by Learning To Do Automatically Few
 Things While at Wheel

mere are few points about the operation of the motor car which are not generally known by any except the most well Informed drivers. They are even unknown to many drivers who may be called experts through their long familiarity with the handling of the car. knowledge of some of these finer points in the operation of the car will add to the enjoyment of driving and give the driver greater confidence i'll his own ability. A few of these points often disregarded by drivers are mentioned here with the knowledge that they will surely help the mex perienced and may prove interesting to the veteran.
 When Coasting Down Hill
 When coasting down long hill it is decided advantage to throw the gear lever into neutral position, thus allow ing the car to coast without turning the engine over. The same result can be obtained by holding the clutch out. but this imposes very undesirable wear upon the clutch throwout, whether it be rollers, ball bearings or fabricated friction surfaces. The absolute quiet ness of the car when running with the transmission thus disconnected from the engine is a joy in itself When engaging the gears again at the bot tom of the hill, do not throw the clucth out before shifting the control lever into high speed, but slightly accelerate the engine, keeping the foot off the clutch pedal, and gently slide the lever into the high-speed notch. If an at tempt is made to reengage the high | speed by throwing out the clutch a 1 clashing of gears will result. as the clutch shaft will be practically sta tionary, while the drive shaft will be revolving with considerable speed. | On Wet Streets Don't Declutch
 Do not disengage the clutch when braking the car on slippery streets The differential acts as an excellent i equalizer for the brakes if the weight of the engine is left on the drive shaft | Prove for your own satisfaction the great advantage of keeping the clutct engaged by throwing the brake on hard on 8 wet pavement with the clutch sci and the car moving rapidly and doing the same thing with the clutch remain | ing engaged. If it is necessary i because of the extreme slipperiness ot the pavement to drive more slowly tbar 1 is possible on high speed do not throw the clutch out of engagement and coasi but drop immediately into a lowel speed so that the equalizing effect oi the engine may be retained on the reai wheels should it be necessary to make quick stop.

During past years many apple trees have been lost on the ranch because of dry weather. This the Alder Brothers are overcom- ing through the use of the tractor.

 The automobile people have had rep resentatives here for the past year and they have been handling a difficult sit uation as best they could. To oppose solely the argument that some one would lose money to the war needs ol the country wouldn't have been much of an argument and they had to work along other lines. There were some persons, to be sure. who did oppose the industry through prejudice. But these things have been pretty well worked out by now and the automobile indus. try stands better to-day in this placd than ever before.

USED CAR BUYER GETS ADVICE IF MOTOR ENGINEER
Expert Tells New Owners to
 Go Over Purchase and to
 Take no chances unless Future Grief is Wanted

The man who buys a second hand car-and there will be many of them this fall-generally fails to realize after he gets the car that it is not quite ready for a lot of hard work without any attention whatever. It should be assumed when a second hand car is purchased that the previ- ous owner was none too attentive de- spite the pleadings of the argumenta- tive dealer to the contrary. The other owner felt during most of his owner ship of the car just about the way you feel when you get the car-like running it and not fussing with the mechanism However, the wise pos sessor of newly acquired second hand automobile will treat it as though it never had got any attention at all.
 To begin with, drain the oil from all partments-engine. clutch eff not of the dry running type). transmission and real axle. You may have been told that fresh lubricant was put in, but that should not stop you. Nor should the comparatively slight ex- penditure for oils stop you either fabrication of a second hand car is very important matter Before refill ing the cases with fresh oil clean them out thoroughly with kerosene and clean cloths.
 Look Out for fabrication Then go over the whole lubricating l system of the car. Examine all grease cups and notice if they need refilling or cleaning or both; clean out all oil holes and squirt clean oil into them. Repack the universal joints, and, in fact, pay such strict attention to the whole lubricating system, including a packing of the steering gear case and steering connection, etc, that you can say positively that the car is properly fabricated.
 This done, the next step is to make sure that all parts are cleaned and ad- justed as well as possible. You might go over the engine first and tighten every nut and bolt you can see; adjust any moving parts, such as fan belt, valve tappets, etc. that may require ir. See that outside parts of the engine, such as generator, ignition unit. tire pump and other auXiliaries, are tightly mounted in place.

LIBERTY BONDS AND WAR
SAVING STAMPS URGED
FOR GOLFING PRIZES
Action of Western Golfers Generally Adopted by Other
Clubs-Pan SO Far Caddies Are Con-
cerned Will Not Work
By CHARLES CHICK EVANS. JR.

WITH the first hint of pleasant
w weather after golfless winter, a
golfer begins to wonder what the sea-
son holds for him The fact that it is
wartime gives the subject more
poignant interest. Last year, the first
of our entrance in the war, the game
was much curtailed, and this second
year did not at first look promising.
There was one thing that last year
taught us. however, and that was the
lesson of keeping cheerful and fit. At
first in our zeal we could not consider
any pleasure in which the men in serv-
ice could not share. We know now
that the people at home must have their
recreation. We hear a great deal about
keeping up the morale of the army. but
we have discovered that it is quite as
important to keep up the morale of the
men behind them. Let us keep our
games as nearly intact as the situation
will allow and at the same time make
them help the boys i'm the field.
No Big Tournaments
OF course, it would be foolish to keep
up the big tournaments in which the
young men mostly played. Too many
of them are gone to war and what is
left would not make a representative
field Titles could mean nothing under
such circumstances. But these big
tournaments constituted but few of the
seasons events, the much greater num-
ber are small club or intcrclub events,
participated in mostly by men past the
military age. a considerable sum of
money is paid out by each club every
year for trophies for these events.
| Last year most of these tournaments
! were abandoned and the few held gen
| orally dispensed with prizes. Something
/ seemed lacking,
! It appeared that the average man
/ likes to play for something, if it is only
/ balls, and this fact inspired prom
/ inent golfer to suggest that for this
/ year Liberty Bonds and thrift stamps
! be put up for golf trophies. Of course
/ the amateur ruling rather stood in the
way, but selling Liberty Bonds is more
/ important than the observance of small
rules.
