COLE GOES WITH
 [. J. bENN|TT I CO.

N. Evans Cole, who although a young man, is one of the pioneers of Salt River valley progress, has given up ranching and entered the real es- tate office of E. J. Bennitt as a sales man.
 MT. Green is one of the best known young men in the valley, having lived here for 25 years during which time he has been prominently identified wit hthe development of this section.
 Evan before a reclamation project had been planned he was in the em- ploy of the old canal company which furnished water to a limited number of acres near Mere. Later he aided in the guiding of the Granite Reef dam and was associated with the reclam- nation service.
 For the past several years he has been ranching, but a bad attack of flu last year forced him to turn the man. agement of his holdings over to others.
 Due to the fact that he has such a wide acquaintance with land values in tie valley, he is considered a valuable addition to the sales force of the F. J. Bennitt company.

TIRES GUARANTEED
 BY LOCAL COMPANY

A novel plan for the guaranty of tire mileage has been put in effect in Phoenix by the Tire Sales company, located at 227 West Adams street, in that they guarantee a definite number of miles on every tire sold.
 All classes Of high grade tires are sold under the company's guarantee, no matter what the claims of the manufacturers may be along those lines. The tires will run a certain number of thousand miles or the con- pany right here in Phoenix will make them good. This Is made possible by the large number of tires bought by the company through it's coast connec- tions and throug the fact that they handle nothing but high class tires.
 During the past fe wdays the Tire Sales company has received a large shipment of castings and tubes from the coast, which gives them one of the largest stocks iA the state.

Diesel economy and better than Diesel dependability without having the in- tricate constructional and mechanical complications of the standard Diesel and heavy duty oil engines of various types, such as high pressure injection air compressor and fuel pumps, hot surface or electrical ignition, etc. The engine is adapted to all purposes where power of the highest character at the lowest possible cost of operation and upkeep is required. One of the prin- cipa1 reasons for its wide and ready sale is its moderate cost, which places it within the means of the smallest power user.
 Remarkable progress has been made by the Western company in marketing their products and it is predicted freely on the coast that in the near future California will be able to boast one of the foremost engine building organiza- tions in the world.

 Rarely has there been equipment of any character exploited that has at- tained such meteoric success in so short a time as the "Western" Diesel engine. It has proved one of the few phenomenal successes of the present age.
 It is just two years ago that this equipment was offered to the power world and today the company is ship ping large numbers of the engine 10 practically every foreign country where high grade power equipment is used. An idea of the volume of the sales on this engine can be had from the statement that one order for $175.000 worth of this one type Of engine alone was received by the com- pany from one organization in a for eign country just a short time ago, which they claim is not an exceptional order. Among the foreign power cen ters where industries of various char acters now are using the Western Diesel engine are Mexico, Brazil, Bolivia, Alaska. Egypt, France. Greece.

 When R. c. Durant first came west and started in a small way with a Chevrolet agency in Los An geles, Stoves was his only employe. Durant was General Manager, of- flee manager, sales manager and sales force. Stoves was bookkeep- er,. stock clerk, service manager, office boy and janitor. all in one and he received the handsome sal-

ary of $65 per month.
 This was in 1914, shortly before Durant drove in the last Los An geles to Phoenix road race.
 After Durant had finished in the money in the Phoenix road race with what was then an unknown automobile, the Chevrolet business began to pick up and Durant dates his start to success back to the 1914 Los Angeles to Phoenix race.
 When the business began to grow and the territory extended, Durant sent young Stoves out into Arizona as a factory representative. After successfully covering the Arizona

 Stoves is now in the east attend ing the Chevrolet sales conference. He will return west the latter part of the month and will stop off at Phoenix for visit with Bert O. Brown, local distributor of the Chevrolet line.
