ALL TRACTORS ARE
 SUCCESS DECLARES
 HART-PARR DEALER

There seems to- be more or less of a general idea" says C. L. Stromberg. of the Southern Motor company, that the tractor is yet in an experimental stage. This is very erroneous, and we only need to point to the motor truck and the wonderful strides it has made in the solving of transportation prob lens to show that the tractor has come into it's own
 The tractor industry, as an indus try. as an industry, is practically as old as that of the motor truck, and in spite of the fact that there are some few machines on the market that are giving their operators some trouble, the tractor can and does perform it's work more economically than the horse.
 The Hart Parr company is the foun- der of the tractor industry, and date it's beginning back r years. At that time, it is true. the tractor was in the experimental stage. This is also true of the motor truck r years ago, but when you compare the present day tractor with that constructed IT years ago, and note the tremendous stride that has been made in the improve ment of this piece of machinery, you can no longer call it an experiment, any more than you can call the pres l ent day motor truck an experiment.
 The failures attributable to trac- 1 tors. if traced to their foundation, would be found to be the failure of 1 the operator rather than the machine itself. This is fast becoming elimi- mated through the demonstration and educational work being conducted by the different agricultural colleges, and a more explicit instruction being given | the operator by the dealer who sells the tractor
 "Competent service men are now a component part of all live tractor deal CTS organizations, and constant atten- ton being given to the proper operation and fabrication of the tractor by the different dealers organizations has eliminated the tractor from the ex- l perimental stage.
 "In the old days when the average motor truck driver was not familiar with his machine. the trouble experi- enced by the dealer was the same as that which has been Experienced by him more recently in the sale of trac- tors.
 Tt is rather a broad statement to make, that all tractors are 8 success but it is fact, nevertheless, and ii only remains for the dealer to proper ly educate the man who is going tc operate his tractor to make it a suc- cess.
 The fundamental principle of sue cessful tractor operation depends, first upon the proper instruction of the op- orator, consistent and thorough lubri- cation. using the best grade of lubri- cant. and upon the correct set of thu machinery you expect the tractor tC pull. If the purchaser of a tractor vii conscientiously attend to the last two and the dealer will conscientiously at tend to the first. there is no reasor why the tractor should not be a sue cess.
 Experience is beyond question tn most practical instructor, and at time the most expensive.

WASHING TIE JAR
 IS NJ TASK NOW

Car washing is still an unpleasant with some motorists. They dislike the use of soaps containing al kali and other things that destroy paint luster They object to the great waste of all soaps that do not dissolve freely, resulting in 75 per cent re- maining useless at the bottom of the pail They are disinclined to use sep arate compounds for washing and pol ishing. Least of all do they like the idea of working laboriously with soaps that do not act quickly
 There is really no need for worry or trouble on this score. The new liquid auto wash, Kantmar, a guaran teed product of the Woodtite Labora tories, makes ear washing simple, easy and quite unobjectionable- Kantmar is a liquid preparation in highly cor centrated form. An astonishinsly small quantity instantly distributes it. self evenly and thoroughly in a bucket of water1something no soap ever does and it knocks stains, dirt and grease like magic. As the name implies Kantmar is absolutely harmless to the most delicate surfaces, be it the finest varnish or your own hands. kantmar is at once the cheapest and most eff fective auto wash available today, and the Woodtite people. as well as the public are to be congratulated on its discovery

TIRES RETIRED FTER
 RECORD BEATING RUNS

DENVER, Colo, May 24.--Like an old truck horse that has outlived it's usefulness and has been retired to a life of tall grass and ease, five automo- bile tires today are making a tour of the United States by rail. They havel retired after living a fast but useful life, and have been signed up for the exhibit circuit.
 Henceforth their only job will be to attend automotive shows. Between seasons they will rest, literally on their laurels, in the windows of dealers in different parts of America.
 This quintet of Gates Half Sole tires left actual service after hanging up a total mileage record of 9;,000, or an average of 19,000 miles. The best in- dividual record was 23,000 miles made on one of the trucks of the Roderick Hardware company, of Dallas, Texas.
 This star tire travelled under condi tions as severe as would have been encountered on the wheel of a racing car.
 None of the battered veterans ever was punctured.
 One crossed the continent, holding the same air when it reached San Di- ego, that it had swallowed before leav- ing Hobolen, N. J.
 After touring southern California and part of Arizona, another member of the record breaking company jour neyed into Yosemite valley, thence to the Mount Shasta country, Klamath lakes, Crater lake and Harrison lodge in Oregon.
 Another rolled from Lewiston, Maine, to the Electra oil fields of Texas, trav eled over much of the Lone Star state, and got as far as the Missouri spur of the Ozark mountains on its home ward journey without showing any signs of fatigue.
 The fifth member of the caste played mileage stunts" alternately on paved streets and mountain trails. After six days of heavy duty in Denver it was the regular program of this tire to spend Sunday climbing Lookout noun tain, or traversing Buck Creek canyon back into the hills until the highways became flint-strewn mountain trails.

CASA CRANDE MAN
 BUYS \ CADILLAC

Babbitt Brothers Trading company has just made an important sale of Cadillac four passenger to w. H.. Clemants, of Casa Grande Mir. Clen- ents made the trip to Phoenix especial ly to look over high grade cars and selected the Cadillac by wide mar gin. He expressed the opinion that it will be only a short while before the public in general will see the advisa bility of buying only good cars, that have proven themselves worthy and is upholding this theory by selecting Cadillac. He was more than surprised at the quality of the tool equipment and the manner in which each tool is fitted into it's own separate leather compartment and snapped there, to prevent rattling
 MT. Clemants is an official of the Casa Grande bank and a great booster for that valley. He says the land is second to none and is of that fine silt variety and many, many feet deep.
 Casa Grande lands deserve the sue cess they are enjoying and the pro motors are to be congratulated on the rapid strides they have made in de velopment of them.

SALESMAN GETS CIGARS

Leo Weaver, who sells Cadillacs for the Babbitt Brothers Trading com pany, has just received a box of cigars from an enthusiastic purchaser. in which was enclosed the following note:
 Weaver, I want to thank you for staying with me until 1 bought this Cadillac, as I feel that you have done me 3. distinct favor. l simply couldn't imagine such a car was made until driving mine the first two thousand miles. The comfort and satisfaction we get from the car is immense, and the more we use it, the more in love with it we become and l wish to tell you, old man, that will stop my work any time to help you sell Cadillac. did not know it was possible to drive d car and not have trouble, but my car is dream, if I must use the ex- pression and l thank you again.
 This incident is one of many express sions of appreciation on the part of Cadillac owners, still it leaves a mighty good taste in the mouth of the seller to have a man go out of his way to show this sort of appreciation.
