NEW FORD CAR
| n N TO RACE TRAIN
Runs On Rails and Is Designed To
Replace Trolley Car. Also will
Burn Alcohol.

Detroit, Jan. 29.-Henry Ford an
nounces his new gasoline driven street
car is almost ready, and he is $50 proud
of the Acontraption that he will let it
compete with the Wolverine the fast
train of the michigan Central Rail-
road, in a run to Chicago, provided the
Michigan Central officials are willing.
The car is now being assembled and
will be ready for a demonstration
which Mr.. Ford plans to make on the
Detroit street railway system. If it is
successful, and if Mayor Couzan's mu-
nicipal ownership plan is adopted on
April 5, it is not unlikely that they
will become a fixture on Detroit's
streets.
One of the interesting features of
the new cartis that apparently the
motors are to- be fitted for operation
with alcohol as fuel. This was indicted
by Mr.. Ford's {replyF to a question
about the statement iof Henry L. Do
herty, that gasoline driven cars could
not supplant electric ones because the
worlds supply ofAol would be exhaus-
ed in thirty years.
az am now making the best fuel my
tractors can use but of straw said
Mr.. Ford, give got an inexhaustible
supply of fuel on my farm, over there
across the road. 4 believe the day is
coming when we will extract the al
cohol out of FRUIT for fuel and use the
rest as food. Pm putting up a $4,000
plant now to manufacture alcohol from
straw alone just to show the peo-
pie.
Mr.. Ford explained his car, showing
four cylinder double opposed, hori-
,zontal motor. The motor viii give rs
horse power and will obviate waste
full pounding of rails. It is mounted
on ball bearings throughout.
1t is light and conlpact-just as
compact, in fact, as the present cleo
trio motor ongstreet cars and about the
same size.
There is aEsacond motor, which will
develop $50 horse power This is the
one which Mr. Ford expects to use in
the Michigan Central test. 1t has an
electric starter and an air compressor.
Gasoline orr kerosene can be used in
both motors
Leaf springs are used on the trucks
which are of the double type. They
are so designed as to receive the mo-
tor which will be affixed under the
floor of the car and controlled from a
vestibule in front of the carA as cleo
trio cars are controlled by motormen
now. The wheels are fitted with ball
bearings and roll along with al touch.

calf. He is deep bodied, full backed
individual with an excellent coat Of
hair, and is typically Galloway.

HERE'S THE AUTO GOSSIP
TO BE HEARD IN COLvILLE

J. X. Jesse, the automobile man
from Marcus, was in Colville last
Saturday selling the Maxwell car.
Chas. Wingham purchased a beau
tiful sport model Davis car Satur-
day. He is delighted with the purT
Of the engine, the beautiful blue
paint and the exquisite brown leath-
er upholstering.
George Wisner recently purchased
Ford sedan, and went to Addy
in 1t Sunday. He states that he
doesn't think there is much of
trick to drive car and anticipates
no trouble at all in running it. "The
main thing is to know how to stop
it." he says.
The price of Fords has dropped
as follows: Touring cars $40, run
abouts $l60, coupe $l05, Sedan $3.50,
trucks $95, chassis $3.50, tractors
$50. Even the lew Methodist
preacher is planning on buying
Ford now.
The present flurries in the tire
market would indicace that now is
good time to buy tires. It is thought
that there is a present overproduc-
tion of tires, due possibly to the
decreased use this year as a result
Of the gas shortage. There is no
indication that this condition will
long continue, and the wise ones are
taking advantage of bargain prices
on many of the Leading makes.

o. n, BELL VISITS PALOUSE E
AND OLD PIONEER SHELTER

o. N. Bell of the Colville Land Co.
has returned from a trip to the
Palouse country. He reports sue
cessful trip and found conditions fine
in that country. He states that they
have about ten days threshing to do
yet and the fall wheat is all sowed
and up and looks as good as at any
time in the history Of the Palouse
country. Mr.. Bell has been acquainted
in that country since 1877 and was
one of the first settlers.
Mr.. Bell also states that the
country between Spangle and Latah,
a distance of about 20 miles,was not
even plowed when he first went to
that country but the land there is
now selling for 1925 an acre.
On his trip, Mr.. Bell visited the
Frank DeShields log cabin, built in
1872, located about quarter of
mile from Waverly. This old cabin
was a place of shelter for the
pioneers who travelled over the road
between Lewiston and Spokane
Falls. Mr.. DeShields died last
year and left an estate of $4,000.
Some two years ago, he told Mr..
Bell he wanted the old cabin and
about an acre of ground preserved
II the historical society would take
care of It. When In Spokane Mr..
Bell visited the historical society
and secured a partial promise from
them to preserve this building in
some way.
