REPAIR WORK WHICH FORMERLY WENT TO

Few industrial concerns. garages and individuals throughout the state have realized in the past that Phoenix pos sessas one of the most modern and up to- date machine shops west of Chi cago
 That they have commenced to req liZe the fact. and as a consequence have ceased sending their particularly diff cult machine work out of the state, is evidenced from the number of new orders received by this concern. which is Orr and Miller.
 Since making known to the trade all over the state that they were equipped to handle anything in the line of the most difficult machine work, cylinder grinding, crankshaft turning, and cleo trical work, this shop has received sev- eral large jobs from the mining dis tricts, and at the present time are also handling a number of very large trac- tor ovehauling jobs.
 New machinery of the latest design has been received, set up and put to work and the shop is employing large force of men.

TRUCKS CAPACITY
 GREATER FUR PULL
 THAN FOR HAULING

Utilization of the surplus power with which all standard makes of trucks and automobiles are endowed is being achieved to a remarkable degree by the use of trailers," says c. w. Hartranft, distributor of Utility trailers.
 "The limitation of load placed on a truck by the manufacturer" contin. ued Mir. Hartranft. applies only to car rying capacity. We place the capacity of a horse on the same basis at two or three hundred pounds, whereas his pulling capacity is much greater. Like wise by virtue of it's pulling capacity the truck can handle from two to five times it's rated load.
 Overlooking Is false economy. Uti- lization of reserve power known as pulling power, is true economy and conservation"

The annual exodus of winter vaca- tionists to the playgrounds of Florida and California has started. Thousands are leaving the "cold lands each week. A large proportion of them are going Tn automobiles, taking advantage of the present fine weather and good roads. They will reach the land of sunshine and flowers just about the time winter sets in up north.
 Up in Manitoba. motorists are trying to get law passed requiring sleighs to have runners four feet eight inches apart, the same as the wheel spread of an automobile.
