LIGHTER CARS COMING
Airplane Experience Forecasts
Engines for Cheap Fuel, Say
Some Engineers.

Lighter cars, higher mileage, and
fewer cylinders, are the predictions
of auto engineers, both in this country
and in England, for the motor vehicle
of the future.
a particularly interesting American
prophecy specifies a five-passenger car
Weighing only 900 pounds with a ply
wood body, new type of spring sus-
pension, q 120-pound, 15-horsepower,
six cylinder motor, and a mileage Of 80
to 40 per gallon. The design of such
Il car will be influenced largely by the
discoveries and adopted practices in
airplane construction, and the result
will be an easier-riding vehicle than the
present cars, in spite of its extreme
| lightness.
| Large cars will be limited to six
| cylinders while four will be considered
enough for q roadster, and closed bodies
will take preferred position
! An apparently inevitable develop
ment is the design of future motors
/ for the consumption of low grade fuels
! Considerable progress already has beer
made in this direction, and cars hav,
| gradually been growing lighter anc
more speedy for the last four or fiv,
! wears.

STEERING GEAR GETS
BLAME FOR EFFECTS
OF CARELESS DRIVING

Often when you read or hear Of
motor accident and the cause is as
signed to failure of the steering gear,
bursting of tire, or some such stock
req son, that isn't the truth at all. II
the real truth could be arrived at in
al, cases, and the mishaps caused by
mechanical failure We're listed beside
those caused by careless driving. the
latter would be the longer by several
blocks.
This it happens: Car Is Zip
ping a.ong at high rate of speed;
gets beyond drivers control and a
front wheel skid develops; goes across
a ditch or curb and tries to cut down
a few trees or telephone poles. Re
suit car pretty badly, smashed up. The
reporter comes along and gives it the
once over, meanwhile listening to the
drivers alibi. Yes, the scteering gear
is pretty much smashed. That tire Is
kaflooey, all right.
But if one drives carefully. little
slower than necessary rather than fas-
ter than the law or the occasion re-
uuires, there need be little fear of &C
cident due to some part OF a motor
car falling to do it's work.

ROADS DRAW TOURISTS
Motor Parties Attracted by
Good Highways, Salt Lake
Travellers Find.

Good highways in any section of the
northwest will surely draw tourist
travel to that section, and poor roads
scare it way, in the opinion of Alfred
r. Cutler and Henry T. McEwen, two
Salt Lake bankers and business men
who recently completed n cross country
automobile tour.
They went from Chicago to Buffalo
New Work and Boston, returning to
Salt Lake by way of Chicago and Kan
sas City. The Tribune tells of their
trip and impressions.
The splendid macadam roads of New
York and the New England states are
attracting thousands of motor parties
with their millions of sight seeing dol
lars they say.
The cross country highways of Wyo-
ming, northern Utah and Nevada, how
ever have been given considerable
eastern notoriety, and a large proper
ton of this travel never attempts the
west. MIR. Cutler and Mr.. McEwan ad
wise going east by way of Kansas, oveI
the Golden Belt route; as the Lincoln
highway through Nebra ska Is in bat
condition, no repairs having been made
on eastern roads during the war. A
Niagara Falls they were unable t
cross into Canada because of there be
ing no reciprocity agreement between
Utah and Canada. This should be un.
dertaken by the state, at no expens,
to IT, for the accommodation of tour,
lists, the Salt Lakers believe.
Mr.. Cutler reports genuine scare
| ity of merchandise in all lines in tn,
markets, The demand on the manu-
| facturerS is overwhelming.

The federal highway council which

which a national highway system may

FUNNY MOTOR
EXPERIENCES
THEY WERE MARRIED

My husband and l were touring
Georgia In our car when 1t got stuck
In the mud on a lonely road. The only
house nearby was a Negro cabin. An
old Negro nanny saw us, so came out
to help. She asked If we were mar
ried, and j told her we were.
Then my husband called me dear
and "dearic' as we gathered sticks
and rocks to place under the wheels.
The old woman finally said:
II don't believe you all is married"
] insisted we were. Later l was in
the car. trying to drive 1t out of the
mud and my husband was bask of the
car pushing and fussing. Then he said
in a cross tone.
"Give her some gas. Look what you
are doing"
I said:
"If you don't like the way / do this
come and do it yourself
Il guess you is married all right"
said the old woman. C. d. G.
POOR FATHER
My father, who is quite stout, said
he wanted to fix some little thing un
der the car, and would do so while we
prepared lunch on the other side of a
large hill. We all went off and did as
he said After waiting an hour for
him we went to see what the delay
was. Imagine our shrieks of laughter
when we found him stuck beneath the
car, pinned down by the exhaust pipe
We had to jack UP the car to pull him
out. The poor soul had been hollering
at us for half an hour. E. r. A.
DOG GONE
Punctures aren't usually subject
for mirth, but last summer d friend OF
ours returned from a cross country
ride, reporting a blowout and sporting
an ear to ear grin.
On his way to town he passed farm
house that was guarded by particu-
larly noisy dog. Every car that passed
was paced by the yipping hound, who
acted as though he intended to bite g
hunk right off the front tire.
He saluted our friends car with the
usual zip, but just as he got his nost
next the front wheel and started ou
in full cry, Zip bang." went the tire.
Mr.. Dog stuck his tail tight between
his legs, threw into reverse and lit ou
for the farmhouse at a 45-mile gait
According to the farmers report Mr.
Dog parked under the bed for the mex
three days.

TRUCKS ON RANCHES
AND FARMS SOON TO
BEACOMMONS SIGHT
Dealers Who Had Exhibits at
Fair Declare When Ranchers
Start Buying Demand Will
Exceed Supply.

Notwithsta nding the almost univer-
sal use of trucks for freighting and
delivery in the cities the truck era has
not yet dawned in the intormountain
country, according to dealers who had
exhibits at the Gem State fair grounds
last week. The day of the truck on
the ranch and farm is coming.
"And when the ranchers really start
buying trucks" in the opinion of II. n.
Graham of the Randall Dodd Auto
company, lit is going TO be mighty hard
to meet the demand. Already the MAX
ers are noramally behind with their
orders and the biggest field is hardly
touched, at any rate in this country.
Around here, outside the cities. only the
freighters, mining companies and q few
Sheepmen regularly use trucks.
1t will be good business when far
mers seriously take to RELOCATING
horses to other jobs and demand trucks
for their major hauling. OF course, it
VIII be like the machinery and imple-
ment business was a few years ago
slow to start, and involving time con-
tracts. But it will be. enormous"
NINE FIRMS SHOW TRUCKS
OF the score of exhibitors in the au-
tomobile show at the fair nine firms
showed trucks. Another year, could
they agree TO undertake 1t, a separate
tent for truck show alone would be
an Hundeniably attractive and paying
enterprise. For trucks stand midway
between the automobile and the trac-
tor, with field and an appeal of their
own.
One of the big trucks shown, not in
the auto show tent, is the Master truck
pr which the Idaho Montana Irac or
company, Pocatello, is the state dis
tributor. A large and growing list of
country dealers is placing it on the
market.
Another large capacity truck which
did not find space in the auto tent Is
the 4 ton Garford, shown by the
Bannock Motor Sales company, a mate
to the one now in use by the David
son Grocery company. The Bannock
people had a smaller truck, a Max
