FORD PLANT BUILDS
 108,962 IN JUNE
Demand Exceeds the Output as Ford Breaks All Previous
 Records

During the month of June the Fora Motor company. through It's Detroit factories and 22 assembly plants throughout the country. reached the production of 10s.s62 Ford cars and trucks, setting up a new high record for one month.
 Production of Ford cars and trucks has been steadily increasing since early spring. and shows substantial gains over the same period last year. The second Quarter of 1921. viz, April, May and June, shows an out put of 301.796 Ford cars and trucks. against 220.S7S for the same three months of last year, or a net increase of S0,91s.
 Despite the fact, however. that the Ford plants have been running at maximum capacity, the demand for Ford cars and trucks Is not being met, and at the present time. many thousand thrilled orders have been piled up ahead so that Ford sales are still limited by manufacturing facil tues rather than marketing possi- .bilities. Particularly is this true with respect to enclosed cars. for which the demand has been un- usually heavy.
 One reason cited by Ford officials lof tne unprecedented demand TOT Ford COTS is the present tendency toward economy. Many of those whose names have been added to the long list of bnyers might well have afforded larger and more cost ly cars than the Ford, but 1t is the belief that most prospective moter car buyers are Investigating all of the costs incidents motoring much more carefully than at any period during the past five years.
 The estimated output of tho Ford factories for July calls for 10s,000 cars and trucks. or production of 4,360 a day for 25 days. Since the assembling of cars is being handled during an s-hour day only, the hourly output will be 545 cars h other words, one Ford car or truck leaves the assembly line every 6lz seconds.

MISAL|GNMENT CAUSE OF MUCH
 TIRE TROUBLE
Miller Tire Company Gives Figures to Show Rea- son for Excess
 SiVe Wear

Due to the fact that so many tires are put out of service because of faulty wheel alignment, 1t is the first duty of every motor;st having trou- ble with his treads wearing down prematurely, to examine his wheels for alignment before blaming the tires, Misalignment of wheels is an exceedingly common trouble. It is ordinarily unnoticeable in driving, and often times there is no way to detect. it except the abnormal wear on the tire. When the wheels are in proper alignment, the front and rear wheels track and there is no skid ding.
 To the average driver, one degree misalignment seems of small impor- tance. However. q 30x3h fabric tire which is 94 inches in circumference, will drag e2 feet in running one mile, if 1t Is out of line only one degree. A 35x5 fabric tire which is l1s inches in circumference, drags a fractional part Of foot further un- der the same conditions in running a mile. In inches, 1-1s-Inch misalign- ment skids the tire 13 feet per mile: 1s Inch, 29 feet per mile; l4 inch, 57 feet per mile, and M inch. 115 feet per mile. The abrasive action of the road would be more severe on the smaller size tires than on larger tires, were the weights of the car the same. As this is not the case, how ever, tires of different sizes wear down in relatively the same ratio ger degree of misalignment.
 Recent experiments of the M.llar tire testing department show that the wheels of a car should be toed in from three-sixteenths to three eighths of ao inch. ard that they should be slightly further apart at the top than at the bot tom to give the most per feet service. Otherwise. there is a tendency when an obstruction IS en- countered in the road to throw the car out of the track. Toeing in helps tc bring the car back. When the car Is running, the wheels, properly aligned, straighten out. Tn sining up the wheels, 1t is. necessary to measure from a point exactly oppo- site to take these two factors Into account.

 The first news that a clash had come was conveyed to the Lexing ton salt Lake company, distributors of the Lexington cars in Salt Lake City and territory, by A. II. Spencer, proprietor of a trading post at Bluff. Mir. Spencer left his wife and daugh- ter in the threatened town to con- clude an oil deal in Salt Lake City.
 As soon as the Salt Lake City Tel egram received news of the threat ened massacre they engaged the Lex ington car. With MT. Spencer, C. F. Tieman, F. A. V.
