VEL|E SCORES HIGH
ON MILEAGE TESTS
FOR SIX CYLINDERS
Has Highest Average of Four
Leading Makes Investigated
for Engineering Magazine.

How many miles per gallon under
average travelling conditions may rea-
sonably be expected of a light SIX
cylinder car?
Reports on a general investigation
of 1922 performance being made to the
national organization Of .Velie dealers
throw interesting light on the subject,
according to A. P. Heaney OF Great
Falls.
A statistical bulletin, printed in the
Engineering Magazine, shows an aver
age of 1913 miles per gallon OF test
measured gasoline for Velie Model 5S,
the highest average mileage per gallon
of the four leading makes that par
ticipated in the test. In car weight
(affecting tire economy, Velie 5S was
shown to be the lightest. The weight
of the stock Velie participating was
1850 pounds. i,
This report was from a statistical
department not associated with car
manufacturer or selling. Tests were
also taken for vibration, silence, slow
pulling and pickup. At three miles,
25 miles and so miles per hour the
Velie-built motor showed no vibration,
fully substantiating the claims for its
advarced features in overhead valves,
automatic fabrication and solidity.
Velie dealers continue to send IN re-
ports Of records in their respective
territories. The Stacy-Trent Motor
Sales Corporation announces the re-
suits of a 2600-mile trip by Lewis ID.
Eldridge, of Trenton. n. j.. The entire
trip was made in a Velie IS stock car
on 125 gallons of gasoline and one gal
Ion of oil. The route taken by Mr..
Fldridge was from Trenton to Niagara
Falls to Sandwich. Ill. returning by
way of Wheeling, W. Va, and Balti-
more. In the trip $50 miles of noun
tains were crossed, and even under
such conditions Mr.. Eldridge averaged
over "a miles per gallon.

INTRODUCES
NEW SPORT MODEL
THAT'S A BEAUTY
Demand So Great That It's
Doubtful If Supply Can
Meet 1t.

The new Nash sport model, just in
troduced, is pronounced by those who
have seer it to be a distinct achieve
ment in finished excellence, perform
ance and equipment.
Shipments of this new model began
October 1. It's appearance on show
room floors at points where it has
been received, has attracted instant at
tention and in view of the fact that
the new sport model can be furnished
by the factory this year only in limited
quantities, it is doubtful whether the
supply will begin to equal the demand.
The price is $1,S75 f. o. b. Great Falls
The shapely maroon body of the new
Nash sport model is swung low to the
road. 1t is set off by handsome bum
pers front and rear, SIX disc wheels,
two spares with extra cord tires and

The running boards are equipped
with special covering and aluminium
step plates with metal filled rubber
pads. The guard bars at the back OF
the body are nickeled. The uphol-
stery is Spanish leather.
In short the new Nash sport model

Putting Towns on Map
to Attract Motorists

"what can our town do to attract
This is a question which many live
communities are asking" said A. T.
Heaney, Montana Velie distributor.
ITO bring to their towns the trade
of as many as possible of the thou
sands of motoring tourists that thread
the highways they are casting about
for local interests such as sights OF
nature, architecture or art or fine
camping places that can be featured
by news publicity. They are stirring up
the hotel men, the merchants and the
local officials to put the town on the
map. in such a way as to bring the
tourists in.
This applies particularly to smaller
towns. Keene, New Hampshire, is an
interesting illustration. That town
features to motorists what is said to
be the widest cement paved street in
the country. 1t measures 40 feet from
curb to curb. 1t is made of s~even-inch
reinforced concrete and the slabs are
laid directly on the soil. The city con
siders the street a paying investment,
Keene has a population of 1880 per-
sons and 5000 elm trees"

il appears to be heard very plainly
when the engine is just about turning
over The garage man advised me that
all overhead valve machines makes a
noise in the valves. When the engine
is speeded up / do not hear the noise.
The taps that l hear are very slow
which would indicate that they are the
valves. When I am running along
about Is or 20 miles per hour l do not
hear the noise.
I was advised that it would not hurt
the machine, but l have run the ma
chine about 900 miles and the noise
was heard when it was run about 3OO
miles. Is there not something that
you can put on to quiet the valves!
Would a bent rocker arm make a
noise? The garage nan advised me
that he found there was a bent rocker
arm, but he put a new n on 1t. 1
took the machine to him when l ran 1t
600 miles. He ground the valves and
said he could take all the noise out,
but it is there just the same.
The car pulls just as well as any
six cylinder machines. / was ADVISED
that if the valves were set too close
it would not pull as well, but l think
when the car is running as slowly as
possible the valves could not be heard:
are IHG NV oh bAI
valve machines heard very plainly
T. H. W.
The average overhead valve engine
is noisier than an L-head of the usual
design though this is not always true.
Some Threads are very noisy compared,
let us say, with your engine. 1t IS,
however, a difficult matter to keep
overhead valves so quiet that you Will
not hear an occasional click. When
the rocker arms are well fitted and
tappets closely set the noise is a mini
mum. If there is slight side play in
a rocker arm, if a valve is bent or if
a valve sticks there will be an I'M
comfortable noise. It is not serious
and l would not bother with it until
valve grinding time came around.
Dear Barney Oldfield-Could you
tell me if it hurts or carbonizes the
car to keep the choke out when run
ming; when the gasoline mixture is too
lean so that the engine stops when
idIing or knocks when going up hill.
| Would it be better to have a richer
| mixture.-G. NJ.
Better to have a richer mixture.
You cannot get a proper ratio with
| the choke applied and it will carbonlze
the engine rapidly.

GUT IN OVERLANDS
PROVES LOW PRICES
FINDS MANY BUYERS
Prospects Were Waiting for
Real Value Now Made
Possible.

There are more prospective buyers
of real motor car value at popular
prices than even dealers had previous
iy supposed, according to Lee Forest
of Overland Forest company.
Supporting this is cited the public's
reaction to Overland's new low prices.
Sales of this car indicate that many
prospective buyers had just been wait
ing for the latest value increase before
making their investment.
Overland's all-steel body, real baked
enamel finish and large, strong rear
axle. are among the extreme values at
the new low price which especially at
tract buyers.
These are new values on a popular
priced light car, and have added appeal
in view of the latest price reduction to
$500 f. O.. b. Great Falls for Overland
tourings and roadsters .
Overland is now the only car selling
below $1,000 that has an all-steel body
and real baked enamel finish. 1t is
also the only light car using both Tim
ken and New Departure bearings in a
semi-floating real axle, with axle
shafts that are removable, as in high
priced cars, without tearing down the
housing.

Dodge Steel Sedan
Combines Lightness and
Strength for Business

A new type of car manufactured by
Dodge Brothers is the business Sc
dan of steel. This construction rep
resents a great advance in sedan de-
sign. 1t permits the virtually perma-
men enamel finish, which has always
been the distinctive quality of Dodge
Brothers touring car and roadster. 1t
affords an ideal union of body lightness
and strength, according to George
Prentice, Dodge distributor in Great
Falls.
The seats are upholstered in gen.
uine grain leather. The rear seat
cushions are separate units and can
be removed in a few seconds, con-
verting the entire rear section Of the
car into a spacious carrying compart-
ment. The front seat tits forward, at

MINNESOTA PLANTING
TREES ALONG HIGHWAY

To make Minnesota famous as ''the
state with the tree-lined highways" is
the object which the forestry depart
ment of that state has set out to ac-
complish. The department will plant
10000 trees along the highways this
year and each year hereafter will add
to the number. What Minnesota is do
ing is also being done in Pennsylvania
and many other states. Experts de-
clare that if the trees are set back far
enough their roots will not injure road
pavements.

CUTTING OF STREET
CORNERS is SCORED

If you cut corners in the city or
cross intersecting streets at greater
speeds than the law allows, or speed
between crossings, or pass standing
street cars within the legal limit and
at high speeds, you are breaking laws
that may result in serious personal
consequences and the "coppers" will
get you if you don't watch out. As a
matter of fact there is no sense in de-
liberately breaking any Of the motor
vehicle laws. 1t is just as easy to turn
a square corner as it is to cut across
and much safer. Speed at street inter-
sections is dangerous to yourself as
well as to others. You gain a tenth
Of a second in time if you get across
safely, and no one is in such a hurry
as all Of that. There is much occa-
sion for the sarcastic comment to some
drivers, "Where's the fire."

HAIR TOO BIG

Do you know that a hairs breadth,

Dear Barney Oldfield-I live in a
mountainous region. In coming down
grade some drivers use reverse as a
brake. Have you any information as
to why this should not be done?-E. II.
1t is not a good thing to press the
reverse pedal except in case of emerg-
ency. If you want to retard the speed
of the car, press the pedal into first
speed. Using reverse is harmful to
the transmission and drive when used
under the conditions mentioned.
Dear Barney Oldfield-Please tell
me the easiest way to detect a piston
slap and lost compensatory. 7.
1t is q difficult thing at best to be
sure a noise is a piston slap. In so
many cases it is a guess, and it really
doesn't matter for whatever the cause
of the noise the engine must be partly
dismantled to get rid of it. You car
locate the faulty cylinder simply by
shorting the plug and listening for a
change of sound when the cylinder is
not firing. A piston will slap louder
when cold than when the engine is
running hot; it also will slap louder
under load.

zine of my car runs very slowly, that

HOneysuckle Goes
TO Europe

Last week the Home Demonstra-
ton Agent had letter from Miss
Ola Powell who has been designated
by sthe United States Department
of Agriculture to help with the in
PRODUCTION of home industries in the
devastated areas of France. She re-
quested that cured honeysuckle vines
for making baskets, be sent her so
that she might introduce the work
there. She commended the artistic
value and the utility of the baskets
made by the women and girls of this
county.
The honeysuckle basketry indus
try originated in the Home Demon
stration clubs of Lafayette county
and has in one year, spread to many
sections of Mississippi, Arkansas and
Tennessee.
Baskets made here have been
shipped to nearly every state in the
