 COUNTRY
GOING TO BEAVER CREEK COUN- TRY TO PROSPECT FOR
 SEVERAL WEEKS

Charles o. Fowler, accompanied by Mrs. Fowler, will leave town this week, probably Friday morning, to be gone several weeks on a pros pecting trip to Nome creek, a tribu- tary to Beaver creek about 35 miles from Chatanika MT. Fowler has some ground there which he believes contains the "homestake" and he wants to satisfy himself on that point while he has the time.
 He was recently appointed as deputy clerk of court, vice Miss Grace Fisher who was promoted to chief deputy clerk, but on account of the November term being post poned until after the first of next year, business is not so rushing there as had been expected and he is talk ing advantage of the slackness to get out in the hills. Clerk Kelly, Chief" Fisher and Dick Geoghegan will look after affairs unaided until just before the next term of court opens.

The automobile owners Of the state
who live near Washington are getting
the six-figure license tags. The series
given the branch office installed in that
city for the convenience of Marylanders
living nearby runs from So 900 to 100, 900.
1t can run on indefinitely il the demand
for cars continues.
Approximately there are about 500 or
500 buses licensed In the state, nearly
1000 delivery automobiles, about 5000
solid-tire trucks. about 10000 miscsl-

AUTO TAGS
At S|X-F|GURE STAGE

Maryland auto license No 1o0, 900 has
been issued.
About every fourteenth person in the
state. whether man, woman or child,
owns an automobile.
To put it differently, there are enough
automobile wheels on Maryland owned
cars to present one to about each third
person in the state.
Figures compiled at the Office Of the
commissioner Of motor vehicles show
an enormous increase in the number of
automobile owners. This has been going
on since the war caused boom in BUSH
ness. but during the past year the num-
Der Of cars has grown by leaps and
bounds.

Stream of Applicants.

1t has been difficult for those at the
automobile license Office to keep ahead
of the constant stream Of persons want
ing to get licenses for the new shiny cars
they have just acquired and learned to
manipulate. The number series on the
license tags have had to be expanded to
the six-fgure mark.
Formerly license numbers had only
FIVE figures, and 99.999 was thought to
be sufficient to include all the cars.
whether pleasure or utility. that might
be owned during a year. Not so, now.
Six figure license numbers have ap-
peared. and the total number of cars in
the state has gone over the 100000
mark.
This represents a gain over last year
Of more than 40 per cent. and the total
is growing all the time. f. Austin
Baughman. commissioner of motor We
hicles. said the increase was undoubt-
eddy due to war prosperity and that 1t
would continue. II it does, the licenses
for passenger cars owned around the
city will likely have little "a on
them as the series OF numbers allotted
to that class of car. 10000 to $1,000. is
nearly exhausted.
