iowa TO FURNISH
| 1889 men in July
CLASS ONE in IOWA WILL BE
PRACTICALLY EXHAUSTED
AFTER JULY DRAFT.
LEGAL BOARD GIVES ASSISTANCE
Questionnaires VIII Be Sent Out In
Sequence of Registration Num-
bers-Order Numbers Later.

Glass One in Iowa will be virtually
exhausted after the states quota OF
1889 men has been filled under the
call Of June 22d, received by the Lo-
cal Board last Saturday evening.
This will take the largest number OF
men from every county since the
draft system has been in operation.
In Delaware county it will mean that
practically every man now in Class
One will be called during July. In
fact there is possibility that there
may not be enough men left in Class
One to meet that quota. The ad1u-
tant's office has not as yet announced
the quotas by counties, but if it is
based on former quotas 1t will mean
that Delaware county will furnish
over two hundred men during the
Eve day period commencing July 22d.
OF the 1899 men who will be called
from Iowa July 22nd, 5,2a2 will be
sent to Camp Gordon, Atlanta, Ca,
while 1887 will be sent to Camp
pike, Little Rock, Arkansas.
It is very evident that the govern
ment is sending overseas hundreds OF
thousands of men every month, ana
in order to keep the training camps
filed with new recruits the war de-,
partment will be calling men in much
larger numbers in the near future.

 WINTER FAVORITE

It is the general opinion among mo- tor car men that this fall and winter will see the largest sale of enclosed cars and winter tops in the history of the industry. There are perfectly logi- cal reasons for this expected trend.
 Heretofore a large proportion of motor car owners used to put up their cars for the winter says Henry Krohn, sales manager of the Paige Detroit Motor Car company. Times have changed. Motoring is now an all the year around occupation be- cause it has ceased to be regarded merely in the classification of pleas ures and the motor car has come into it's own as a legitimate factor of prac- tical transportation.
 But the drive on enclosed cars and winter tops has received an extra i'm petus due to the war. The universal desire to speed up. to keep going win- ter or summer, the necessity for every man over here doing extra work be- cause so many of our men are over there. has turned the attention of mo torists to the advantages of enclosed cars and winter tops. Having decided to use motor car transportation to the utmost they look for a. car that can also give hem protection and comfort It is after all, whether in wartime or peace time. a natural trend dictated by d common sense appreciation of utility and comfort"

M ARTHUR BROS. GET EMERGENCY
 L0T IF D0DCES
Ready to Make Immediate Deliveries for First Time In Many Month of All Dodge Models

For the first time Sn months we oan make immediate delivery of all models of Dodge Brothers motor cars.' said Warren McArthur, of Me Arthur Brothers, who distributes these cars over the entire state
 "The government used large num- herS of these cars for transportation of officers and the light, truck which ls known as Dodge Brothers business car was originally designed for the government for light haulage purposes and was not placed on the market un- tll government needs were satisfied.
 Tt seems to be the prevailing idea among well known automobile men that even with the war over it will be J long time before automobile prices are effected, owing to the fact that there will be a great demand for metal materials for reconstruction work.
 However" continued AIr. AIcAr- thur, there is no question but what more cars will be available inasmuch as tho war board has partially lifted the ban on construction and passen- ger automobiles will be manufactured to the extent of 75 per cent of their usual annual production.
 Recognition of the vast importance of the Salt River Valley in the pro- duction of food stuffs has been a factor in securing shipment at this time of Dodge BrotherS' motor cars 10 Phoenix, as it is realized that they can be used to advantage by the rancher, their transportation eff cheney having been proved by the gov ernment 1t should be remembered however" continued MT. McArthur, "that while we have Dodge Brothers cars for delivery now. such is not the case all over the United States, and with peace declared, there is no ques- tion but what the demand will exceed the supply, as before the war. How ever, we are much gratified that Dodge Brothers have made us this emergency shipment-it means that many will have cars to facilitate the handling of crops
 McArthur Brothers have made many changes recently in their building, having moved the stock room and ac- ccssory store to the first floor and are deVoting practically the entire second floor to the service department. Sev- eral expert mechanics on Dodge Brothers cars have been secured, making possible quicker and efficient service to Dodge car owners.
 A dumb waiter has been installed between the service department and tho stock room. eliminating any delay in the transfer of parts for a repair job.
 We feel" said Mir. McArthur, that with the war over, the automobile business will go forward with a rush and VIC are making preparation to handle big increase in our business.

CARING FOR IDLE BATTERIES

When a storage battery is not used for a considerable length of time. as when car is to be laid up during the winter months, it must be looked after nevertheless. When the car is laid up the battery should be given a com plete charge, and the charge should be renewed at last every two months. There is no danger of the battery be- ing injured by the cold if it is kept charged. but if it is allowed to become discharged it may freeze. up and be damaged. This is due to the fact that the dilute sulphuric acid solu- tion, such as that in a discharged bat tery, has freezing point of about 20 degrees above zero, which is during the winter months. On the other hand. d sulphutric acid solution of the usual density in completely charged bat tery does not freeze until the tenn perature drops to 80 degrees below zero.

HE ADVOCATES MOTOR
 TRANSPORT DAY HERE:

The State of Colorado on November 15 celebrated it's first Motor Trans port Day The governor set aside, by proclamation, that that day would be a public holiday and requested that every human being in the state think Of motor truck transportation and the motor truck. The plan had the en- dorsement of not only the National Highways Transport committee, but also the National Motor Truck com mittee of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce.
 Without a doubt, this is a big idea and one worthy of every state in the union initiating" says H. w. Nerney, local Kissel distributor Tt is due to the motor truck that the transporta- ton requirements of the nation have been met without interfering with the work of the railroads taking care of the governments requirements. It is also due to the high state of perfec- tion of the motor truck that the cost of transporting goods by it has not been prohibitive, but on the contrary at practically the same rates as those Of the railroads, and in many locali- ties due to good roads the rates have been lower.
 ui4dtA ELdlLQ LildI N-OlOIduO S AlOIOT Transport Day was for the purpose of calling attention to the possible uses of motor trucks and the possibilities of their being employed. not only fromean efficiency standpoint, but from that Of economy, expense and time. It is my opinion that it is just as much ! business necessity as a patriotic duty for firms to transport their goods by motor trucks as it is for them to sub scribe to Liberty Loans Red Cross and other patriotic funds. They all have the one purpose that of helping win the war, and by employing motor trucks. the railroads are thus able to utilize more of their rolling stock for government purposes than other wise. l suggest that the governor of this state be written to by every mo- tor truck dealer and user to set aside q motor transport day of our own"

GOVERNMENT THINKS
 AUTO |S ESSENTIAL

That the automobile is regarded as an essential utility by city government officials is evidenced by letter re- ceived by c. H. Reubens, local Kissel distributor, in which is stated: T am superintendent of the intake and filter beds of the Greeley Water works and my headquarters are about 40 miles from the nearest postoffic in Belleview, Colorado. My work neces- sitates frequent trips to Greeley, and also Fort Collins, about r miles dis tant, as well as trips along the pipe line. It is on these trips that my car is used exclusively, enabling me to cover twice and three times the dis tance that it would take me by any other means of transportation

After a time they Gan also be trained to go ahead at night and find the right road. However, if they are trained to do this it will be necessary to furnish them with small tightening rods to roost upon. Some tightening bugs are very pugnacious, and if you happen to get hold of that variety it will be nec- essary to keep them muzzled when sent out to find the road.

 MELTED LEAD HAS BEEN found to be an excellent method of getting rid of the expense relative to the operation of an automobile. In most cases even undertakers bills have been saved. The method of application is to pour. about half pint of solder or melted lead into the gasoline tank, and while the gasoline in the tank at the time is ruined, no more gasoline will have to be purchased for the same car.

LIE SPRINGS SQUEAK

If the springs squeak and you have no time to grease them thoroughly try the following: Clean off spring with kerosene, guiding it down the side of the spring with the fingers so that it will run in between tho leaves. Wipe off the excess. Now pour oil between them the same way. guiding it down the side It will run in between the leaves and find the squeak.
 Sometimes a. squeak defies detection. Fill an oil gun with transmission oil and squirt it verywhere a squeak may develop; around mud guards, hood running board. etc.

TAIL LIGHTS
BY RAY D, ESROD

TO REPAIR A BROKEN axle, place a small portion of ordinary chewing fum, that has been discarded by the owner, on one end of the broken shaft. Press the other end of the shaft firmly in place and wrap a tWo-inch length of sticking plaster around the joint Next, carefully place the repaired shaft in one corner of the ash can and write to the nearest agency hand ling aXles and have them send down new one to fit your car. By doing this there will not be the slightest chance of having the old axle break again.
 A DELIGHTFUL JOY RIDE may be had at little expense by following out the following plan: Invite all your friends to be present at your house at certain specified time. Pack them carefully in your car and run it into your garage, where you have previous ly pulled down the blinds and made it perfectly dark. Hire a small boy to crawl under the machine and beat a tin can. The sound produced by beat ing the can will almost exactly re- semble the sound made by the works of ford. By using an electric vibra-
 
 jarring feeling will be obtained that is very natural and lifelike. Then by having the small boy occasionally blow up and burst a paper sack, the sensa- tion of back firing is easily obtained. This method is recommended because it entails no danger from traffic cops as well as police court fines, and en- ables you to sell the engine from your 1 car for pin money
