YAouiS StAv 100
MEXICAN TROOPS

DOUGLAS. May 24.-According to
word received here yesterday a de.
tachment of 100 Mexican soldiers,
including officers. was wiped out by
the Yaquis in the vicinity Of Movas.
The Yaquis, numbering approximate.
ly $50 braves. made their escape to
the mountains before a sufficient force
10 halt their flight could be sent
against them Movas Is about rs
miles southeas; of Guaymas.
1t is said that the Yaquis no long
er attack civilians, but confine their
operations to ambushing soldiers. 1t
was the intention of General Gales
to finish the campaign against the
Indians before the approach Of the
hot summer months, but 1t seems
that he was not able to do SO. The
Indians are able to continue their
guerilla warfare in the intense heat.
but the soldiers under Gales practi-
cally are unable to make any head
way during the hot summer days.

LESS TIRES USED IN WINTER
Motorist Does Not Let Out Air During
Extremely Cold Weather and
They Last Longer.

The winter season seems to strength.
en- the properly inflated tire.
determination is responsible for q
large percentage of tire expense. Most
motorists think that during the sum
mer months they should ride their tires
at low pressure to prevent blow-outs.
The decreasing of the pressure does
not decrease the heating of the tire,
but, rather increases it, as the side
walls are subjected to a greater bend
ing strain and friction between the lay
ers Of fabric generates heat. Due to
this excessive fexing the fabric cracks
and loosens up to such an extent that
the tire becomes weakened The crack
ed and chafed fabric ruins the inner
tube. During the winter season the
motOrist does not let the air out of his
tires, as he does in the summer, but
allows his tires to have a greater and
more constant air pressure; hence, the
percentage of tires consigned to the
scrap heap is much less in winter than
in summer.

KEEPING AUTO ENGINE WARM
Electric Device, Which Consumes One.
Tenth of KiIowatt an Hour,
Solves Problem.

The problem Of keeping an automo-
bile engine and radiator warm during
the coolest nights, without the neces-
sity of heating the entire garage, has
been solved by an electric engine and
radiator warmer, which is simply
screwed into any lamp socket in the
garage and placed down in the hood of
the car Between engine and radiator.
The body of the heater contains a
rugged heating element which con-
sumes one-tenth of q kilowatt-less
than one cent an. hour-and gives off
just enough heat to keep the radiator
from freezing and the engina from
causing trouble. The hood of the car,
however, should be blanketed in Sc
we're weather to hold in the heat. The
heating element is inclosed in n black
enameied metal shell. Of a shape and
size not unlike the ordinary dry cell,
and perforated to allow for circulation
1T the heated mir from within.
