Thirty-five Years Ago.

From The Herald files of Jan. 20. 1887
 In an article in the Herald of January 20, 1887. the expense of county for officers etc. was placed at $60, 900 for the year.
 E. s. Slower was out last Tues day for the first time since his unfortunate accident.
 The move by the western part of the county to divide Apache county is going a little beyond a joking matter, and other things the Herald says: We are in- formed that Winsiow has raised S5, 900 toward putting up county buildings, in case the county is divided. Our Councilman, J. H. Breed, leading the subscription with $3,OOO. This looks as if there was very dull "axe" hid den somewhere that needed grind ing.
 We hope an Inspector will be appointed, now that the Wagon road Commissioners created by the last Territorial Assembly in Apache county has apparently fulfilled it's mission, toinvestigate, with a m icroscope. if necessary, the relics of the SIP. 1000 entrusted to their care for the repair of roads and bridges in Apache county, To a casual observer it looks as though the funds have evaporated, and the bridge and road-O, where are they?

No Opportunity

Twenty years ago a brilliant young newspaper man, editor of a big Detriot daily newspaper. espoused socialism.
 There is no opportunity for poor man." he said. ''The Rock fellers of finance control every thing"
 "There is no opportunity for you on this newspaper, the own CT said. Get out!'
 Today that man, who latter be- came socialist candidate for pres ident, is a newspaper reporter again. back where he started as a youth.
 Twenty years ago in Detroit was a mechanic with an idea peo- pie regarded as so revolutionary they thought he was a crank. '" He had little money and to raise a few thousands was a Herculean task that required many months.
 Last week the newspaper re- porter, Allen L. Benson, inter- viewed the mechanic, Henry Ford, and in his piece" told the world that Henry was the richest man in the world, his wealth surpass- ing even that of the Rockfellers. Albuquerque Morning Journal.

AS ONE MAN SEES IT
Editor Herald.

Editor Herald.
 Sir In tbe last issue of the Her aid you reprint an item from the Holbrook News, which sneers at the governments efforts to en- force the prohibition law and in which the editor of the Herald thinks there is a bit of truth. 1 would like 10 suggest, that if, the editor of the Holbrook News is so fearful that the children of Holbrook are poisoning them selves with elicit booze-he had better get busy and uphold the law, thereby helping to enforce it, and save the children of Hol- brook. As matter of fact very few young people care enough about booze to sneak around a back alley and drink 1t out of a jug. Nor is there but a small per cent of them that think it to do so, but a very large per cent of them would think it smart to swagger up to a bar and order a drink, and thatis the con- dition our beer and wine friends would bring back. But their propaganda is useless prohibit tion is here to stay. Thousands of doctors from 19 states, meet ing in Chicago went on record by an overwhelming majority against the use of beer and wine for med icinaI purposes. When the med ical men turn booze down. The vets havtn n't q leg to stand on.

THE BOND ISSUE

It might be timely, as the cleo tion for voting on the question of issuing bonds in the sum of $175, : .000 is drawing nigh to make a few remarks.
 In our meanderings we hear some making the remark that it is going to be an awful burden of taxation upon the people of Apache county, and to some ex- tent. this is true, but if you will stop and think for a few moments you will be able to get a little light, that perhaps, has not oc- cured to you before.
 We are now being taxed with $175, 900 road bonds which were voted in 1920 bearing interest at 5% and these bonds have never been sold, but we are being taxed just the same to pay for them as if they were sold and the money being put into circulation.
 Now as we understand it the proposed S175, 900 road bond is- sue at 6a6 is t9 take the place of the $175, 900 road bond issue at 5% and the difference of 1a6 in the rate of interest will not amount to much in the matter of taxa ton.
 We now have white elephant on our hands in the 5ao bonds, one that we cannot sell or dispose of and one that is continually an ex- pense with nc returns. Let Us do away with this 56 bond by voting for the 6% bonds and thus getting some action on the money for road building purposes and up markets for our farm and orchard products.

COMPENSATION

There was plenty for the railroads
 When munitions must be movin' And the empties were stringin'
 From New York to San AntOne; And the guys who built the freighters Could eat Lyonnaise potaters
 While the soldier man was lucky If he got horse's bone. Now the Senate solons tell US
 With their pompous honeyed phrases That the golden goose ain't layin' As she did in seventeen; That the greatest. richest nation Can't afford the compensation
 To the cogs that worked together In the Yankee war machine. There was plenty, though, for parties Who contracted for the clothing And who shipped the cold canned willy That we dined on overseas; But some jack to keep us going Til the winter winds stop blowing Oh, my goodness, quite unheard of Let 'em freeze-yes, let lem freezel They can garner many billions For enforcing prohibition; They can squander many fortunes On a plane that never flew; But their present expectation In the case of compensation Is to let her ride, by chowder- Which is what they'd love to do!

TINE supreme confidence with
L which Cadillac owners regard
their cars is a logical outgrowth of
at least four definite factors.
In the first place, Cadillac dependa-
bility has been demonstrated over
a period Of years. This dependa-
bility is something more than is
generally included in the meaning
of the word. 1t embraces a degree
of constant, unimpaired perfor-
nance that has placed Cadillac in
a distinct and separate class.
Secondly, Cadillac owners realize
that in every new model this
Cadillac dependability finds an
ever fuller expression. Type 81
represents the highest attainment
Cadillac has thus farachieved.

YOU CANNOT GO .
LOWER THAN THE
BOTTOM FOR TIRES

Tires and the cost OF them is d
pretty important question for about
one family in every three in the
United States. So, national import
ance was lent to the fact that re-
Gently the standard makers of tires
reduced prices to a new low level;
lower, indeed, than has ever been
reached in the history of the indus
TRY. Naturally this reduction was
closely followed by the smaller
companies.
Analysis Of business conditions
are today one of the most import
| ant functions of big manufacturers.
In the rubber trade, one of the old
est rubber companies, of Akron,
Ohio, maintains an extensive corps
of investigating operatives the re-
| suit of whose researches makes
clear, not only the causes that have
brought cord tires to the lowest
level of prices ever attained, but
aso how plain it is that the present
marks the turning point, so that the
year 1922 will long be known as the
year of tire buying opportunities.
Cotton and rubber are the two
prime factors in the cost Of cord
tires and an authoritative analysis
Of conditions since the year 1918
have resulted which shows how
closely tire prices follow the up and
down movements in these two COM
moditions. For ten years, the re-
port shows, how the trend of tire
prices followed the price of these
two raw materials, until today they
are in almost perfect alignment.
Rubber has reached such a low
level of price that already many
rubber plantations are being aban-
doned until more profitable opera
ton can be restored. That this re-

made in tire equipment; either a
change in tire type or an increase
in tire size to take care of the extra
demands made on the tires.
If is Just as important that the
speed at which the vehicle is oper-
ated be carefully checked as it Is
to see that the loads do not exceed
the maximum limits as recon-
mended for the size of tire used.
General road conditions should
come in for fair amount of con-
sideration, for if they are generally
poor the impact forces generated
by the load suddenly dropping into
road depressions and operating
over,road distractions will tend 10
lead to early tire failure unless the
vehicle is amply tired to withstand
such increased impact loads.
More solid tire trucks fail due to
overlooking or over-speeding than
from any other cause. When the
tire mileage is not up to eXpecta-
tons there is reason for assuming
that the vehicle is being operated
in q service in excess Of the maxi
mum capacity of the tires being
used,

INTERESTING TOPIC
ON SIZE AND TYPE
OF SOLID TIRES

When solid tires have not given
service, rather than apply new tires
assuming that the old tires have
failed due to some manufacturing
fault, IT would be well to investigate
the service the truck is being OPP
Grated in. If the load the truck is
called on to carry is found to be
in excess of the normal rated ca
pacity of the truck or exceeds the
maximum carrying capacity of the
tires the more satisfactory course is
to change the tires for a size or
type that will meet the conditions
as found.
The limitations of each size and
type of solid tires are pretty well
established, and If these limitations
are exceeded a larger size or a diff
ferent type of tire will quickly cor
rect the faulty service and an i'm
provement in tire mileage will soon
be noted.
The service rendered by solid
is largely dependent on three fac
tors: The speed at which the vehi-
Gle is driven, the load transported
and the type or condition OF the
road over which the vehicle oper-
ates. When determining tire sizes
for original equipment, these three
items are usually given careful con-
sideration by the truck manufac-
tursrs and the correct tire size Is
carefully estimated. The original
tire equipment as fitted to vehicles
is thus usually of ample size to
meet the average users require
ments and will give satisfactory
service as long as the vehicle is OPP
Grated and loaded to its normal
rated capacity. If either the vehicle
speed or its load exceeds this nor
NAL rate some change must be

KITCHEN CABINET TO
BE AWARDED AS PRIZE

Spike" Clines, 13, will tee off in
the Audubon Country club golf
tournament to be held in the near
future, with kitchen cabinet as

"Spike," whose real name is
Hugh, wears short trousers. He is
the son of Thomas Clines, former
county treasurer. He learned to
play golf while serving as a caddie
and for several years has been able
to talk intelligently Of such things
as a "mashie," "putter" and the
like.
While Mr.. Coons has not an
nounced any plans for disposal of
the enameled kitchen cabinet--if
he wins it---"Spike" already has
made arrangements to present it to

sumption will be soon no one who
realizes the ever-increasing demand
for rubber in the arts and manu-
features, can doubt. That the other
raw material, cotton, is also ready
for an increased demand and there
fore an increased price is clear
from the fact that the present sea-
sons cotton crop is far below nor
NAL and that the carry-over from
the 1921 crop is, exceedingly small.
With very few exceptions all au-
tomobiles today are originally
equipped with cord tires. This has
helped in bringing about a fuller
realization of the economies afford
ed by this type of construction, so
that there is an ever increasing de-
mand In face of this steadily in
creasing demand on the part of the
consumer and the fact that cord
tires were never before priced at
lower levels, it is entirely reason
able to suppose that further de-
cline in consumers costs Is highly
improbable.
The third factor In the manutac-
turing cost of cord tires is labor,
and so far as the rubber business
is concerned this is still on semi
peak basis. 1t is tempered, of
course, by tremendous increase in
production made possible by more
efficient manufacturing methods
and by greatly improved tire-build-
ing machinery. All three of the
prime factors Of cost, then, in the
making of cord tires are bound, in
the very nature of things, to rise;
and as these rise on the compare
tive cost chart, it Is incredible that
the line signifying the cost of cord
tires shall lag behind.

car value.
Lastly and Of equal Importance to
Cadillac owners is the fact that

dealers are, securing the continent

pan is buying largely. Fine small
stones are also very scarce.
"The Germans are hanging on to
