TIRE FACTORIES HAVE
MAMMOTH OUTPUT

Making a new set Of tires for each
motor car in Japan would require but
half a working day at one Of the big
tire factories of the United States.
But 844 working days, or more
than three years would be required
for one Of these bly, factories to
make four new tires for each Of the
100000 motor vehicles operating
in the United States today.
Those who like to stagger their i'm
aginations may be able to build up
fair minds eye picture of the i'm
mensity of the annual rubber tire
consumption of the United States by
comparisons based on the annual pro-
duction of only one of the several
big factories Of the United States.
They can obtain pictures of the an
nual production for instance, by null
tiplying pictures based on the caba-
city of $4,000 tires daily.
These $4,000 tires if placed end to
end would cover no less than fifty
miles on a straight line.
Or converting them into single
tier and you would have a circle of
rubber which, standing on its tread,
would tower fifteen miles into the
air, or, laid on its side, would easily
enclose New York and London to-
gether.

ESSEX CAR is MASTERPIECE
OF THE HUDSON CO.

Behind the recent public an
nouncement that the Essex, the mot
oring sensation of the past year, was
designed by Hudson engineers and
built in the Hudson factory, lies one
of the most amazing stories of indus
trial achievement ever revealed" de-
clared M. C. Mann of the Mann
Motor Company.
"Altro the bare facts have been
generally known for months in trade
circles, where they have been the
cause of endless speculation, few
outside of the industry knew that the
Essex was a Hudson product, the re-
suit of Hudson achievement and ex-
perience.
"When the Essex was first intro.
duced year ago, nothing was said
about the builders and the secret
was kept for nearly twelve months
During all this time not single
claim was made for the Essex. The
motoring public merely was invited
to take ride in it and form its own
opinion. The identity Of the build
ers was shrouded in mystery, the ad
vertisements merely stating that the
Essex would speak for itself. 1t was
left to make its way unaided thru
sheer ability and without other in
dorsement.
"The result is now automobile
history. More than 10000 cars, val
ued at over $35, 1000, were sold in
less than IL months, the greatest sue
cess ever achieved by any fine car in
its first year on the market. Its feats
have established new motoring stand
ards for economy, endurance and re-
liability. It was an Essex stock
chassis, for instance, that set new
worlds mark for long distance en-
durance on the Cincinnati Speedway,
covering 3037 miles in so hours.
"In accomplishing this feat the Es-
sex actually travelled $3.50 miles in
"a hours and %. minutes, driving
time, as the American Automobile
Association officials stopped it twice
before the fifty hour period could be
completed because rain and sleet
made the track too dangerous to con-
tinue the run. In the first test the
car covered 1890 miles and in the
seconh 1912 miles. On the third it
ran for the full fifty-hour period.
another new mark was set by a
standard Essex touring car in Iowa
when it covered 1861 miles in "a
hours over frozen dirt roads, At
Grand Rapids, Mich, another Essex
established a new record for the run
to Mackinaw City when it made the
round trip, 521 miles, in 81 hours
without stopping the engine. Then
in the famous Rim of the World
contest at San Berpardino, a stand
ard Essex won first place in its class,
eight miles to an elevation
of nearly 5000 feet in 10 minutes
seconds.

KIND OF TRACTOR NEEDED
VARIES, SAYS DEALER
By George Molitor

"Buying a farm tractor is a gooC
deal like getting a wife-every mar
to his taste. A tractor that will rem
der most satisfactory service to one
farmer will not render good service
to another. There is one difference
in the comparison made above-you
can tell what tractor will do, but
you can never tell what a woman will
do"
Tractors can be classified and sub
classified into several species. Only
the main classification can be COW
cred in a comparatively short article
such as this. There are the "crawler"
types, built on the principal of the
tank, or rather wise versa, and the
round wheel types.
| Round wheel tractors are more
numerous than the creeper or track
layer type. Each make has certain
advantages. The round wheel tractors
can be subdivided into about three
groups-the small tractor pulling
from one to three plows, the average
western farm size pulling from four
to eight plows and the gigantic trac-
tors for contracting and farm work
pulling from eight plows on up.
Much difference of opinion will be
found as to which is the proper size
of tractor for certain farms. The
method the farmer uses in blowing
the crops to be planted and the dura-
ton of the planting and harvesting
season are all important factors.
Each farmer must decide for himself
the machine that mill meet his condi-
tions.
Occasionally, as l travel around the
country, l meet man who does not
believe in tractors. Ten years ago /
used to meet them who did not be-
lieve in automobiles. Today these
pessimists have automobiles. tomor-
row the other pessimists will have
tractors.
The experimental stage with the
gasoline tractor has passed. Tractors
are built today according to specif-
cations that insure they will do the
work before the plans ever leave the
designing engineer. There have been
and probably are some tractors made
that are not made right. If they
aren't made right they aren't going
to stand up long, and if they don't
stand up people aren't going to buy
them. That means the company is
going out of business or already has
gone bankrupt.
Tractor farming is the farming not
Of tomorrow but Of today. The farm
er who does not use tractor, wheth-
err it be low priced general utility
tractor or a mastodon, is going to be
as far behind as the man who in
sists on using scythe to cut his
grain.

FARMERS PLEASED AFTER
SEEING MAXWELL IN HARNESS
Pneumatic Tires Make Trip Easy
Groceries, Furnaces, Soda Pop
and Potatoes in Cargo.

The lightest, lowest priced ton and
half entry in the National Motor
Truck Development Tour which came
to a conclusion at Milwaukee, after
travelling over 5000 miles thru the
six richest farming states of the
middle west, made the best average
for consumption of gasoline, oil and
water. This is not official but is
based on authoritative figures just re-
ceived by the Southwest Motor Sales
Co., local Maxwell dealers. The feat
was accomplished by Maxwell truck
altho it travelled the same rough
roads and carried its share of over
loads from soft fields as the other
participants. Soon after the train
left Chicago, Percy Gibbs, driver of
the truck, reported that farmers and
business men along the route were
taking a particular interest in the
Maxwell. The crowds seemed to ap-
preciate the difference between
weight and the light sturdy construc-
ton of the Maxwell.
Furthermore, the Maxwell attract
ed as much attention from the Of
ficials of the tour as it did from the
farmers.
A stock u ton truck was taken
from production, without prelimin-
airy tuning up" and placed in the
3,000-mile demonstration tour in
competition with the best in America.
1t traversed some of the worst roads
in the country, over plowed fields and
in country lanes, at times hauling
many hundred pounds in excess of its
rated capacity and made remarkable
record.
The Maxwell came thru without
the need of mechanical adjustment
and the big 35x5 pneumatic tires
which carried the truck looked at the
finish as tho they had not been run
over one hundred miles.
Records available show that the
Maxwell averaged slightly under 13
miles to the gallon of gas, over 1900
miles to the gallon of oil, and 383
/ niles to the gallon of water.
These gas and oil records, from one
to five gallons higher than the aver
age, are good under the most favor
able conditions, but are exceptional
when it is considered that the truck
carried loads of potatoes out of soft
fields to market, hauled stacks of
wheat from field to thresher, hurried
overloads of milk from farm to ship
ping points, and otherwise demon
strated its usefulness under all con-
ditions, to all needs of the American
! farmer. Over smooth stretches of
nrairie roads the MAXWELL made as
high as II miles to the gallon Of gas
which is as good as the consumption
of the average pleasure car.

PEOPLE BUY CARS WITH
GREATER CARE, SAYS DEALER

Everywhere there seems to be a
sweeping reform in motor car buy
ing" says a local dealer.
"There was time when purchas-
ers were wont to take for granted
every word that statesmen told them
about a car. Nowadays it is differ
ent. Most users are motor-wise and
they carefully look into a4car's mech
anieal features before buying.
"They know the most approved
type Of engineering practice. Deal
ers say it is surprising the number of
prospects that come to them and
when they get into technical expla-
nation regarding some feature the
prospective buyer usually says, Yes,
we know this feature is right and we
would like to know something about
the rear axle, etc."

RECORDS BRING BOOST IN
MILEAGE OF TIRES
Old6eld Adjustment Basis Raised Az
ter Tires Had Received Few
Months Trial.

Months Trial.
After 0ldfield Tires had been in
use by motorists for a period of a
little over three months, the basis of
adjustment was raised to 5000 miles
on fabrics and 5000 miles on cords.
"Oldfield Tires have made good"
declared Mr.. Trindle of the Liberal
Auto Supply Co., local dealers for
Oldfield tires. $50 well have they
lived up to the confidence placed in
them that after they have been on
the market only a little over three
months, the Oldfield Tire Company
felt justified in raising their basis of
adjustment.
"This liberal adjustment basis en-
ables us to make satisfaction the bas-
is of every sale. A tire is just as
good as the material it is made Of.
Quality materials, superior workman
ship and the tire knowledge of Bar
ney Oldfield, president and active
head of the company, combine to
make tire that that keeps on go
ing"
The Liberal Auto Supply Company
reports a fine business on this line
of tires and have established serv-
ice organization in keeping with the
quality of Oldfield product.
