MONTH IF JUNE
 SEES 1 108,962 F0RDSP PR0DUCED||

DETRIOT, July IS {SpeciaD Dur ing the month of June, the Ford Mo- tor company. through it's Detroit fac- tories and p assembly plants throughout the country- reached the production of 10S,962 Ford cars and trucks. setting up a new nigh record for ono; 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 output of So1.796 Ford cars and trucks against 220. .878 for the same three months of last year. or net increase of S0,918-
 Despite the fact. however, that the Ford plants have been running at maximum capacity the demand for Ford cara and trucks is not being met and at the present time. many thousand untitled orders have been piled up ahead so that Ford sales are still limited by manufacturing facili- ties rather than marketing possibili- ties Particularly is this true with respect tc enclosed cars, for which the demand has been unusually heavy.
 One reason cited by Ford officials  Ford cars Is the present tendency to- ward economy. Many of those whose names have been added to the long list of buyers might well have af- forded larger and more costly cars than the Ford. but it is the belier that most prospective motor car buy CTS are Investigating all of the costs incident to motoring much more carefully than at any period during the past five years
 The estimated output of the Ford factories for July calls for 100000 cars and trucks, or a production of 4.3so a day for 25 days. Since the assembling of cars is being handled during an eight hour work day only, the hourly output will be 545 cars. In others words. one Ford car or truck leaves the assembly line every six and one half seconds.

SHOWS UP.
 MELLON TRACK

That California made car can successfully compete on the race track with the best European and American speed machines has been demonstrated within the last few months by Ira Vail. widely known speed demon. and Frank Elliott, his team mate and former mechanieian.
 Vail and Elliott have been consist ent winners since the 1921 auto race season opened and bid fair to be high among the point winners when the sea son closes.
 Piloting Leach Special, under the colors of the Leach Biltwell Motor Car company of Los Angeles, Vail finished well up in the list at the Indianapolis 500-mile race on Me- morial Day. Then came the Union town spring classic and with Elliott at the wheel the Leach Special nosed out Tommy Milton, finishing well ahead of. that daring driver. The latest success of the Leach car was

LIT HE 0|L |S USED BY SINGLE
 S|X ON CLIMB

A most convincing showing in gas oline and oil economy was made by the Packard single six entered in the Sacramento-L Lake Tahoe economy run last week. when the single six won first place in it's class and came with in 14-10o of point of tying the winner of the sweepstakes. Accord : ing to Harry Smith, of Smith-yin- cent company the Packard six made a remarkable showing for ear of its size.
 The single six averaged more than 20 miles to the gallon for the Smile run. and showed no visible oil con- sumption at all when the crank eases were drained at the end of the run" said Smith last week. Tt carried five passengers and considerable lug gage. and the route included a climb to a 7,S00-foot summit The rules of the contest forbade de- ciutching or running with the ignition shut off, so the records set by the various cars were a fair example of normal run ming. A strong headwind blew for many miles as the cars were return ing to Sacramento.
 For the Packard to show better than a z0-mile average under these conditions, we consider very good showing. It is especially satisfactory to us because we have many owners who are getting equally good mileage on long country runs"

Tells HolU To Keep The Shorts Out or
 Your Ford Timer

Every Ford owner knows the in- convenience caused by short circuit ing of the timer wires, the common practice of running them across to the right side of the motor making them particularly subject to wear and oil-satura ton. There is better way cf connecting them W -ich reduces the liability of short -circuiting.
 Remove the timer wires, and with a knife carefully cut off the braided covering which cncloses them. Fasten them to the timer terminals Tn their respective positions, and carry all the wires up to the radiator support rod over the hose connection, running those from contacts three and four On the left side and those from contacts one and two on the right side. Bind the wires to the rcd in this position. leaving just enough slack to allow for the movement of the timer. and make the wires fast to the coil box terminals. cutting them eff if too long.
 The advantage is at once evident You may inspect each wire separate ly throughout its entire length. No wires cross the timer or touch it ex- cept at the terminals. and there is no possibility of their becoming worn or !oil- il-soaked.--AprilM Motor.

OVERLAND DUES
 GREAT WORK IN
 NONSTOP TEST

News of one of the most interest ing nonstop runs ever made by an automobile has been received by the Overland Arizona company.
 The cara model four Overland stock in every respect. covered 3.691 miles of rough Idaho roads in seven days continuous driving. Not once was the motor permitted to stop, and. according to information contained in car was to all intents and purposes ready to continue driving at the com pietion of the long run.
 Starting on a Saturday at 10 a. m., the Overland Four kept on the road till the following Saturday at the same hour. Two drivers alternated at the wheel. changing shifts every six hours, day and night. On the last day the car had to go through 140 miles of rain and mud. Imme- diately upon the conclusion of the run. the car went back into regular service as a den1onstrator for the Boise Overland company. Idaho dis tributor, and showed no signs of any undue strain
 The cars average for the entire 3,691 miles without a stop was A miles per gallon of gasoline con- sumed. and 978.2 for ever gallon of oil used No one repair was made on the entire trip.
 That the entire Idaho run was made without a single stop for re- pairs is to my mind the most striking thing about the whole remarkable demonstration declared Herbert Hotchkiss. One of the fundamental reasons which make possible such records with the Overland car is without doubt the use ot famous trip- lex springs on the Overland car"

|M|[T TON'S VICTORY MADE IN UNTR|ED
 CAR WAS AMAZING

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, July 16. (SpeciaD D--When Tommy Milton flashed across the finish, winner of the 1921 International Sweepstakes, the result was no surprise to the rank and file of motoring enthusiasts, for Milton is the worlds speed king.
 Last year. Milton won the Union town, races June 19 and September s. the Tacoma race July 4, finished second at Fresno and third at Indian apolis and in the compilation of points, finished second for the season to the late Gaston Chevrolet. the A. A. A. champion for 1920.
 To insiders. fowever-the other drivers, mechanics. newspaper men and Speedway attaches-M Milton $ victory was little less than amazing, for his drive was made in a car that had been unproven and almost un- tried--a car which. in it's practice spins had developed troubles general to new cars of original designs.
 Again and again. during the week before the race. MiIton's car had been lowed in from the Speedway to Louis .Cheyloret's little race car factory where it's designer, aided by it's driser, lad worked on it almost i'm cessantly, to remedy some minor diff ficulty.
 Milton had supreme confidence in himself and his belief that victory would be his was apparent at all times. For the first 100 miles he drove very conservatively being con- tent to permit the others to make the pace. starting to make speed, only when convinced the car would stand the drive.
 
 Milton drive was in my estima : tion. one of the best combinations oi daring and headwork ever shown by a winner of the 5a0-rnile race'' de clares Barney Oldfield, who built the tires on which Milton drove the race
 He knew when he started that his Frontenac Eight was probably fas- ter than any other car in the field Yet he enjoyed no opportunity to try it out and master it's characteristics He made no effort at speed during the first 100 miles, but was content tC travel around seventh place.
 As his car began to show it coul6 stand the pace, he stepped up a bit riding for while in fifth place. At 150 miles he signalled his pit: that he was ready to go into the bat tie of the front runners, and how ht did drivel Hearne.

Elliott again finished among the prize. winners. in a close contest with Eddie Pullen.
 Elliott and Vail now plan to, enter the Cotati speedway race, near San Francisco, when that new track will be opened for the first time on Aug ust 14-unless the Elgin. Illinois road race is decided upon They also will enter the fall Uniontown race and will be seen at the Beverly Hills speedway in November They also are booked for number of smaller races in the middle west and Pacific coast regions
 Vail is well satisfied with his Leach car and the new motor it contains. The motor was specially designed for the machine by Harry A. Miller. widely known engineer. who is vice president of the Leach company.

WHEN RIM WILL NOT FIT

When a rim with tire is mounted
 on the wheel 1t often happens that fhe rim cannot be moved into place, remaining partly on and partly off. Slight springing of the rim is all that is needed, and this may be done by placing the head of the jack against fhe hub of the wheel and the base Of the jack on a protruding portion of fhe rim. Thus sprung little. hammer blow will slide the rim over the edge of the wheel In most cases of this kind the mere operation or the lack will force the rim over the wheel.

Time was when only the favored few owned motor cars. Today people buy them to save money. In 'The Motor Camping Book just published by the Putnams, Elon Jessup tells of meet ing in Banff. Canada, farmer with his wife and five children who were enjoying the marvels of the Canadian Rockies. The car was a trifle rickety in spots but it had brought them safely all the way across the broad Canadian prairies. They had camped out every night and would continue to do so until their return.

ovERHEArINe IN wINTER

It seems rather anomalous that overheating is one of the troubles that often occurs in very cold wealth CT. Sometimes this is caused by the use of anti-freeze solution having a boiling point below that of clear water More often when a car IS run with nothing but water in the radiator some part of the water sys- tenn freezes enough to obstruct the passage of the water. with the result that boiling quickly takes place.

SOLDER IN TIE GAS TANK

If you should have fuel feed trouble which you cannot locate. remove the gasoline tank and shake it. In four out of five cars fitted with cheap tanks there always are a few pieces of solder on the inside of the tank. These pieces work their way to the place over the feed line and prevent the proper flow of fuel. There is only one way to getting the pieces out and that is to shake them out.

We were cramred for room at the old location, and while we might have gone on another six months with the facilities we had there. we deemed it a wise moyet to make the charge at this time.

 That Chevrolet owners appreciate the extra facilities now available to them is evidenced by the large num- Der who have called at the new estab- lishment. Bert O. Browns removal to larger and better location well illustrates the progressive spirit among the motor car dealers of Phoenix.

ASK FRATERNITY
HOUSE TAXATION
Greencastle Officials and 9th
ers Write Sims.

Taxation Of all fraternity houses in
Greeucastle Is asked in a letter received
by the state board Of tax commissioners,
signed by the county assessor OF Putnam
County, the mayor OF Greeucastle and
several Greek letter fraternity men. The
letter states there are a number Of fra
ternity houses In the city that are OF
much value and should be assessed for
taxation.
The letter follows closely a decision OF
the tax board on a similar case in West
Lafayette where taxation OF a number OF
fraternity houses at Purdue University
was asked by citizens. In a decision Of
the Supreme Court, in regard to a case
appealed from De Paw University some
years ago. It was decided that the fra
ternlty houses were a part OF the uniyer-
sity and not subject to taxation.
Fred A. Sims, chairman OF the State
tax board, in reply to the letter from
Greencastle. referred the people to their
Representatives In the Legislature, stat
Ing that the matter was up to the AS
sembly, inasmuch as the Supreme Court
has ruled that the property is not sub

to determine what kind OF process win
be necessary to dispose of the sewage
after it has reached the final step, Frank

member Of the board, announced today.
The United States Fidelity and Guar
anty Company is making satisfactory
progress on the construction Of the two
mile main tnterceptor line which will con-
meet the White River interceptor near
South West street and the east bank Of
the river with the disposal plant st the
Sellers farm southwest OF the city, Mr..
LingenfeIter said. Ths bonding COM
pany was ordered to take over the work
at a higher price than that contracted
for by the William 2. Grace Company,
the original contractor, which was not
making progress satisfactory to the
board
1t is hoped to have the pump and
screen house built and the intercsptoE
line completed by the end Of this year
so that the disposal plant may be In
partial operation, Mr.. LingsnfeItsr said.
Tests to determine the type Of plant
for disposlng of the sludge, left after the
sewage runs through the pump and
screen house, are necessary because the
sewage varies in every city, the engineer
stated. 1t will take about three months
to complete the tests.
