 The company will consist of eight people, and they will carry with them all the encessary scenery and equip ment for Motoring and other sketches. A start will be made from Cricklewood in September.

All the principal centers of India will be visited by air.
 The next stage will be to China and Japan, and finally the chief cities of the United States will be visited, be- ginning with San Francisco and end ing with New York, and then home.

That the entire life of the motor is dependent upon the care given the car when it is new. is the opinion O the Ferguson -Keeler company which has submitted the following informa- tion that Will be of value to the mo .orist, contemplating the purchase ofsa new car The bearings are stiff at the first and the motor is tight and un- broken which. therefore. requires proper care for the first 1000 miles of the cars life.
 ''Regardless of all advice 10 the con trary," claims Billy Ferguson, the oil in the cranScase of new car should be drained and the case washed out with kerosene after the car has been driven from 300 to 1000 miles.
 Under no circumstances should the ear be driven faster than 15 miles per hour during the first 900 miles of the cars travels. The speed should not exceed 70 miles until after the speed ometer has registered at least 1000 te 1500 nils.
 What is the best method of stop ping my car quickly on a slippery pave ment with the least possible skid: We are often asked.
 The answer is: Apply the foot brake steadily but do not depress the clutch pedal until after the car is almost at 2 standstill. then throw out the clutch ] to prevent stalling the engine. Thc hand throttle should. of course, be at the top of the quadrant-or closed, ii { other words.
 Stopping in this way is an advani 2 age at all times. because it reduces tire wear and less pressure on the brake l is required to accomplish the same re 1 suit.
 In hilly country where it is neces- sary to coast down long hills, man drivers shut off the ignition switch of the instrument board. close the throt- tie, and leave the gear in high" a. usual This permits the ear to tun 1 the engine over and produces a very noticeable retarding effect which re lieves the necessity of using tht brakes to an extent that produces rapiC wear Drivers using this plan ofter find when the ignition is switched or at the bottom of the hill loud explo sion occurs.

HAY MEN MOVE TO LOWER ALT ALF \ FREIGHT RATES
Valley Growers at Meeting Insist Present Rate Of SIS To Kansas City Prohibit tive; Ask For $11.50.

Lower freight rates on hay that will enable the hay growers Of the Salt River valley to receive a reasonable price for their product was the princi- pal subject at meeting of hay growers at the Water Users building yesterday afternoon.
 That the present freight rate on hay from Phoenix to Kansas City, which is SIS, is a prohibitive one, was admitted at the meeting and it was agreed that some relief was imperative. The pres. ent rate is the result of a 25 per cent increase by the government since it took over the railroads of the country it was reminded.
 More than 50 hay growers of the valley and few others interested were at the meeting which was presided over by C. c. Green. The situation was gen erally discussed and a committee was appointed to confer with the state cor poration commission in an endeavor to secure freight rate on hay of $11.5O per ton to Kansas City. This commit tee is composed of T. c. Jordan, T. C.. McReynolds D. II. Claridge, Ed Galu- ha'and Roland Johnson.
 Present Rate ProhbitiVe
 A. A. Betts, chairman of the corpo- ration commission, was present at the meeting and addressed the hay growers. NIT. Betts outlined the situation and promised his hearty support in any at tempt to secure more equitable freight rates on hay from Phoenix to Kansas City and other points.
 That with the present freight rate of $500 per ton to Kansas City, the deal CTS could not afford to pay the grower more than $11 per ton for No 1 alfalfa, was stated at the meeting. Out of this tll the grower must pay S3.50 per ton for baling, from S1.50 to s per ton for hauling (depending upon the distance from town), the labor charges and the other expenses, leaving no profit what ever for the grower
 The plan of compressing hay to make . saving on freight rates was freely discussed yesterday. By compressing, it would become possible to make three bales of hay fill the space in a freight car occupied by one ordinary bale Whether compressing would be advisa- ble and whether it would affect the marketing of the hay was discussed and committee was appointed to investi- gate the matter The members are as follows: E. s. Lacey, J. W. Etter, J. R. Norton, A. Krell and F. C. ReWick
 To investigate Compressing
 That compressing hay did not affect It's feeding qualities was the statement made at the meeting by experts. How ever, the leaf is crushed and tight hangers are required for storing.
 An committees appointed yesterday gre toreport their findings at a meeting to be. held at the chamber of com
