 MT. Leach who has charge of the used car department of Rabbit Brothers said. since the announce ment of the sale in the papers there has been a decided increase in the number of cars sold.

CLEARANCE HOUSE BUSINESS ACTIVE

That the field of the Phoenix Auto Clearance House is broadening is the opinion of w. H. Grant, manager of the company. He stated that within the last few days they have succeeded in disposing of four cars to out of town buyers. Two were sold. in Mi ami, one in Ray and one in Mayer.
 There has been no let up of the sales in the local market, however. AIr. Grant accounts for his out of town business by the fact that his cars are reasonably priced and con- servatively advertised, thus engen- dering confidence in the public throughout the state.

proved by immersing a small piece of rubber in kerosene and allow it to soak. The rubber will soon swell and lose it's elasticity. The reason for this is apparent. Kerosene IS rich in fatty properties which remain after the evaporation of the gases. Every time tire is washed with a kerosene mixture the rubber is de priVed of more of its strength.
 When washing tires it is best to use a damp sponge and clean water care being taken that the sponge is not soaked and dripping. After washing the tires they should be wiped dry with a cloth or a handful of waste.

PROTECTING DRY CELLS

Dry cells are considerably open to outside inimical influences, dampness, etc., and really need more protection than they usually get. An extremely valuable idea in this connection, is to cut an old inner tube into sections, just to fit the dry cells. slipping the rubber covering over these latter as if it were stocking. This protects them admir- ably from short circuiting influences.

MICHELIN TIRE HINTS
Avoid Kerosene in Wash Water

Cal Messner, Michelin tire agent in Phoenix, says that washing tires and washing a car are two different propositions Water alone should be used to wash tires and as little of it as necessary. After ever yrun the tires should be wiped clean with a damp sponge or well-wrung cloth.
