SPRING INCREASED
 AUTOMOBILE SALES

Whether the fact that the motor car shows were held a little later this year than in former seasons played any part in making them the biggest in point of actual sales in the history of the industry is causing some dis cussion among motor car men these days.
 In the opinion of G. H. Reuben, the local dealer in Dort motor cars, the sales stimulus was not due so much to the time of the exhibits as to the general business situation in the coun- try coupled with the mild wea ther which the east and middle west es- pecially have enjoyed
 Personally I would like to see the dates of the motor car shows return another year to their former times, '' he says. T do not believe that the difference in sales shown this year was dependent upon change of dates and 1 do feel that both dealer and patron gain big advantage by having the shows as soon after the first of January as possible, because of the time that is given to look over the new models and the general features of various motor cars before the real spring selling season opens up.
 Weather conditions this year. to- gether with the large increase in the number of potential automobile buy CTS, due to the splendid prosperity Of last year and to the war time incomes. IS largely responsible for the increase in the number Of floor sales at the automobile shows Visitors at the shows this year had the money to buy. and the splendid weather which ac- companied q number of the exhibits in ! different parts of the country created the appetite for immediate ownership of an automobile.
 T ana sure everyone has had 'sprins fever and knows how the first warm days call one into the open Those are the days when motoring has if, biggest thrill and those are too often the days when the motorist is buying his car and arranging for delivery at Il later date. If motorists would only buy little earlier and be ready fA the first bursts of sunshine an i warmth, they would get real pleasure ! from their cars.
 This year l believe. due to the mild i winter more motorists are going tc enjoy the first spring days than ever before because they have purchased ! early. and generally it is the sprins ! days that do this to the motorist' ! loss of pleasure

FABRIC TIRE STILL
 |s IN THE RUNNING

The advent of cord construction in automobile tires has made possible the manufacture of tires which give astounding mileages, yet there are many automobile owners who have found so great a degree of satisfac- tion in some favorite brand of fabric tire, that they are ioath to change to the new type
 The United States Tire company reports sales of its fabric brands that show these tires are continually gain ing favor among motorists who want good tires at a moderate initial cost
 President J. Newton Gunn of the United States Tire company, has re- ceived this letter from a New Haven. merchant, telling why he remains firm in his allegiance to the Chain tread:
 q think 2o.24S miles up to date is g. remarkable record for three out of set of five of your 35&iia chain tread tires. They are still on my seven passenger ear in serviceable condition. and the car is used every day.
 The full set Of five tires was put on my new car the first week in March. 1915. The first of the set went out Of commission April ., 1918, after run

USES OF MANILA ROPE

One of the most useful things fc carry in the car on tours is D feet of half-inch manila rope, which has al most endless uses. In the first place it is an admirable tow rope. It can be wrapped around axle and spring after some Of the spring leaves have been been broken to get home without breaking the rest Of the leaves. It caH be cut in two and wrapped around the rear tires to give traction in some mud hole where it would be impossible tu fasten the chains. The rope can even be used as 6 tire when the last spara has blown out and will save the rim on the journey home

from September to November r., 1918, 5e1o permits were issued for building; 6e9 of which were for farm buildings, at a total cost of two mi lion dollars, or about twelve million dollars yearly. whereas the actual aver ave construction in normal times amounts to two billion four hundred dollars yearly. twenty times greater.

MOTOR TRUCK VITAL
 ID BUILDING TRADE

If there is one line of business to which the motor truck has become es- sential in speeding up work, it is that of the building industry" says c. II Reuben, local kissel distributor.
 And from the way motor trucks have been used by building contrac- tors in the past, it is apparent that with the renewed building construc- ton which the country's readiustmeut period has opened up. this industry will require more than its share Of the motor trucks that can he manufac- tured for some time to come.
 T understand from reliable sources that 6S per cent of all materials ship ped on the railroads is building and construction material. Also that l. per cent of all men employed in the country. excepting those on farms. ar. in building or construction work. Now

EGYPTIAN WANT
 AMERICAN AUTOS

Notwithstanding the reports that the bolsheviki are trying to raise trouble in Egypt evidence that the business interests in that part of he world are not taking it seriously, but are going right ahead laying plans for the future, was recently proved at the kissel factory" says G. II. Reuben local kissei distributor.
 "A letter was received from Cairo Egypt, asking for the Kissel agency for the whole Of the orient in which territory the applicant the foremost motor exchange in Egypt, has many branches fully equipped. They offer 10 pay Tor all cars ordered by New York exchange on the day shipment Is effected, indicating they have the utmost confidence in the products of American motor car makers"

MOUNTING TIGHT RIM

A small screw jack placed in position on the hub can be used 10 spring the joint of the rim outward far enough 10 permit the rim to be slipped into place.

LoosENINe INACCESSIBLE NUTS

The best way of loosening large and inaccessible nuts, which are sometimes found about the chassis. is to use a socket wrench of the proper size, with a big Stiison wrench to furnish tie leverage. This combination will handle almost anything.

OVERSIZE TIRES

When oversize tires are to be used, the ear owner should be certain that there is enough clearance between all the tires and the nearest parts of the car. When the tires are under heavy load, there is danger that there will not be clearance between the wheels and lenders and the casing. Be certain that when the springs are compressed to the limit by some extra bump that the tires will not come in contact with some part of the chassis
