EFFICIENCY SHOWN
 T0 BE PREDOMINANT
 FACTOR IN THIS DAY

''The miracles of the olden days which we have so long cherished are fast fad ing into insignificance beside the won derful things that are being done in this great day of the present" says Ed Ru- dolph, of the Ford Garage, which have brought to our attention a number of the really worth while things that can be accomplished by the highest type of what the old world might have called a miracle and what the new day calls efficiency.
 Tn the great world famous Ford plant miracles are happening that are almost unbelievable-si simply and purely by means of the highest type of eff cieney. Not only is this plant turning out today it's regular quota of some $500 finished Ford cars per day and furnishing to the public a perfect ma chine at a minimum cost, but it is also furnishing the government with the new anti-submarine ships and motors for cylinders for government airplane production.

CONTEST
 WON MUCH CREDIT
 FUR LOCAL FIRM

In the winning of the Packard Sweepstakes contest held last year by the Packard Motor Car company, McArthur Brothers drew the atten- tion of the entire motor world to Arizona, as this was a sales contest, based on number of Packard cars sold
 McArthur Brothers wontsthis con- test with a big margin over the near est competitor.
 Last week a telegram was received announcing that McArthur Brothers won first place in the Packard truck contest with a percentage of 194, with Baltimore second, with per- centage of 152. Now comes another wire announcing that they have also won highest honors in the used car contest, with percentage of 252, and nearest competitor 166
 These contests were held by the Packard factory in order to test the different selling organizations and rivalry was keen among the dealers all over the country
 By the winning of the last two contests, McArthur Brothers have es- tablished the fact that they have a selling organization without an equal, even competing with cities several times the size of Phoenix.
 It also shows that Arizona is in a very prosperous condition when so many Packard units are sold, and it also denotes the popularity of these cars.
 One large nationally known con- cern will have 36 Packard trucks in operation in Arizona when the five ordered last week are delivered, while another concern, after a test of other cars along with a Packard, have an- nounced that they will adopt it for all of their heavy hauling. We are just naturally winners.' said Walter Leecraft of McArthur Brothers, when it comes to sales contests. and unless we are barred after winning the pleasure car, truck and used car events. we will go after the first prize in the next contest. even though they do put us up against the big gest cities in the country

STEAM MOTOR MAKING GOOD
 ON HARD JOb
Wes Hill Introduces Stan
 ley Over Apache Trail To Supplant Gasoline Cars
 Altogether, Present Plan

Subjected 10 the hardest kind of rough and ready service, three Stanley steamers are now being operated on the Wesley A. Hill stage line between Phoenix and Globe, and indicative of the satisfaction they have given thus far, according to the dealTrs. orders for seven more cars havcl been placed by Mir. Hill These orders have been given with a view to using steam cars exclusively in the work.
 Jack Smith. president of the Ari- zona Steam Motors company and dis trict distributor for the Stanley, de- clares the great tire mileage the low fuel cost, the almost total absence of noise. and incomparable riding qualities are the things which have made the Stanley practicable not only for stage purposes, but for all around motoring.
 Mir. Smith, who has been identified with the automobile business for many years in various parts of Ari- zona, has just returned from a long trip through the mountainous regions of the state where. he says, the Stan ley, purely through it's performance, has made a decided hit.
 On one occasion, he says. the steam car carried ten persons over a grade of 3S per cent, at a. speed of two miles an hour, stopping and starting at the drivers will. which feat he declares is beyond the realm of pos sibility in the case of any gasoline car.

ACTION NECESSARY
 IN WINNING SAYS
 DORT CAR OFFICIAL

If there is any one thing absolutely necessary to win the war, it is action," says an official of the Dort Motor Car company.
 Spell it in capitals and repeat it. ACTION. This does not mean alone a speeding up of the military move ment, but in just as important a sense the acceleration of civil life.
 Tt has been said with complete truth that the effectiveness of our arms in France is dependent upon the volume of effective effort on the part of those left behind
 What is the duty then of you and me? Plainly, to do all we can, in- venting. perfecting and marketing the means to make the so.oier's task easier and quicker.
 'To do this we must employ to the best advantage those mechanical aids which cut down time and enable us to redouble our energies. We must hew to the maximum standard of human accomplishment fixed by agencies that cut down unproductive time
 Among those agencies the passen- ger automobile holds an unquestioned position. On the farm, in manufac- tures in mercantiles, in salesmanship, in the professions, in all walks of life and in the hands o1 every person to whom time is important, it is a neces- sary factor.
 We have traced very carefully the facts regarding the use to which Dort owners in this territory are putting their cars. Roughly estimated, the re- ports Indicate that nearly 80 per cent of the running is for business purposes, the remaining percentage for recrea- tion And who shall say that the 20 per cent of recreation is non essen tial?.

DEVELOPMENT OF
 FARM TRACTOR |S
 IMPORTANT IN WAR
By Ernest G. coan, Pratt Gilbert Co

By Ernest G. Coan, Pratt Gilbert Go.
 The development and production of the farm tractor is a branch of auto motive engineering of equal importance with that having to do with any direct military activities. Automotive en- gineers are performing valuable service in the prosecution of the war in in- rumerable ways. In any branch of the service whether here or with our men in France, where automotive apparatus is made or used there will be found the engineer striving to fill his sphere. at all times looking for more work to do and ready to cooperate with his fellowman in developing the useful ness of the tractor.
 The farm tractor is playing tre- mendous part in the production of food which will after all in my estimation be determining factor in winning the war. It is well recognized by all who

Batteries Need
 More Attention
Auto Owners Charged with Neglecting Important
 Part of Machine

Batteries, like tires, wear out. Their life depends on their use or abuse. Most people not know ing the care of batteries, wear them out long before their time of usefulness is over.
 Often the system is at fault. The battery may be overcharged or entirely discharged. These causes permanently injure the battery. They should be given prompt attention because the prices of batteries have gone up from twenty to forty dollars.
 The main thing about a battery is it's plates, just as the main thing about an automobile is it's power plant. Upon the respon- siveness of the plates depends the power giving and usefulness of the battery.
 The Electrical Auto and Service company carries the USl bat tery. This concern has found that it lives up to the require ments of good battery.

Local Veterinary Gives Up Practice to Become

Dr. w. $. Lowe, well known local veterinarian and a resident of Phoe- nix for twenty six years, has inter- ested himself as part of the firm in the Arizona Steam Motors company, distributors of the Stanley Steamer in Arizona.
 Dr. Lowe recently returned from visit to Los Angeles, where he was taking up work in connection with his profession. Considering the pros poets of the Stanley steamer in Ari- zona, he decided to connect up with the local distributors and to devote his entire time to this business.
 Dr. Lowe has owned several makes of cars but his purchase of a Stan ley steamer is said to be partly re- sponsible for his giving up his pro fession and entering the new line of work,

of the new Liberty motors. the United States twelves, and already his quan- tity production on cylinders has cut cost estimates almost 40 per cent.
 Aircraft production board officials, although admitting that the Ford fac tories were concentrating on Ameri- ca's powerful motor could not divulge the figures of production.
 Some idea of the magnitude of pro- tion in cost due to quantity output, was indicated in the statement that these motors would constitute the greater part of Americas contribution to the allied air program.
 Incidentally the participation of Ford in Americas aircraft program on so large a scale has resulted already in saving many thousands of dollars for the government. The aircraft pro- duction boards form of contract, which is being considered for adop- ton generally by other war agencies of the nation, takes 75 per cent of cost savings.
 Instead of the usual cost plus basis, which has the evil of increasing prof its as costs increase, the aircraft con- tract fixes a definite and constant per centage of profit on the estimated cost If production exceeds the estimated cost, the profit remains the same; if the manufacturer decreases cost, his profit does not, change, but he gets in addition 25 per cent of the saving.

have investigated th- subject that the total production of food in this country can be increased enormously by the ap- plication of the farm tractor on many farms, small as well as large.
 In a recent two-day tractor blowing test conducted at the Iowa State Col lege by government engineers, it was demonstrated that one acre of ground can be tractor plowed 6 inches deep on 24 gallons of kerosene and one eighth gallon of lubricating oil. These complete results of the test represent the most comprehensive data on trac- tor blowing operations that have been worked out by the government or in dividuals.
 Due to the shortness of the field one sixth of the time was spent in turning, the length of the furrows being 54S feet and the dead furrows were 300 feet apart It took one hour and seventeen minutes to blow one acre with an av- craze speed of 2.25 miles per hour. An Avery tractor was used pulling three 14-inch blows, 10.06 horsepower was

At considerable expense, Promoter Ed. T. Ahilenius has held over every one of the big spectacles, some of them imported especially, in order that the crowds who have been look ing forward to the events may not be disappointed.
 Some doubt about the weather fore cast, and the hope that Old Sol would come out and shine benevolently on the previous day scheduled, was the cause for no announcement having been made until the middle of the day Fri day, that the races would not take place.

There are a good many high pow cred cars that are just ''rearin' to go' and several youths who believe they can exceed the record breaking leap recently scored in another motorcycle jumping event pulled off recently. These and other facts go to make up an entertainment that should appeal to any lover of thrills.
 The track, it is believed, will be in even better condition today than be- fore the rain, all of which leads to the assumption that there will be some shattered records.

Origin of CoIIie's Name.

The collie's name appears to be
shrouded in mystery; butSthere seems
to be a fairly reasonable foundation
for supposing that it is from "collp
or collar" on account of the broad
white mark round the neck which is
seen in the majority of these dogs.
