6,ooo,oooTH FORD TURNED
 OUT OF FACTORY MAY 18TH

The six millionth Model "T" Ford Motor was produced May 18th, in the Ford Factory at Detroit In other words, from the time back in 1908 when the Ford Motor Company began marketing the now famous Model "T'' Motor Car until May 18th, 1922, a total of six million Ford Cars and Trucks have been produced. Out of this total 5,517,956 were delivered to purchasers in the United States alone, and according to the latest statistics, 4,47s,248 of these Ford Cars and Trucks are still in daily service.
 Thus, it will be seen that out of every five Ford Cars and Trucks sold to retail purchasers in the United States alone during the past fourteen years, four are still in actual daily use, which is really remarkable when the hard service of commercial cars is taken into consideration. This seems to forcibly confirm the popular know ledge of the longevity of Ford cars. That Ford products have been quite evenly distributed throughout the United States is borne out by the fact that thru the sparsely settled com munities in. the West to the densely populated cities in the East, practi- cally the same ratio of Ford cars and trucks to population exists.
 Ohio leads with total of 290,796 Ford Cars and Trucks in daily use; Illinois comes second; Pennsylvania third; Texas fourth, and Michigan fifth, with a total of 234,081. New York, Iowa and California follow in the order named, each having more than 100000.
 An idea of the important part play ed by Ford Cars and Trucks in the daily transportation of goods and per sons in the United States can be gain ed by realization of the fact that with the Ford cars now in operation, aver aging a minimum of 5000 miles per year each, they would pile up a total of Tewnty-five billion transportation miles-equivalent to more than mil lion trips around the world.

ENGLAND PLANS TO
 END ALL SPEED LAWS

England is preparing to abolish all her speed laws for motorists and driv- CTS of other road vehicles.
 Enforcement of the regulations for dangerous driving and increased pen :alties for violation of the regulations are, however, contained in the report of the committee on taxation and reg ulation of road vehicles.
 The speed limit signs, always an annoyance to the motorist, are to be done away with and in their place is expected something along the follow ing lines:
 "Go as fast as you like, but you'd better jolly we'll be careful"

Air and Gas Mixture

The average mixture considered best for combustion in the cylinders of an automobile engine is from IA to IT parts of air to enc part of gasoline. Less air is used and more gasoline for slow speed and power work. while more air and less gas are drawn into the cylinder for economical high speed driving or light load pulling.

MAKE ARTIFICIAL
 WOOD TOP BODIES

A recent invasion of an artificial composition of interest to automobile body makers is reported from Aus traila. The material, which is similar to veneer, is produced from waste fbrous products and other vegetable matter, sawdust being used for the manufacture of cheap grades of the composition.
 It is claimed that it can be used for various purposes, including furniture veneers and wall panelling. and can be made to produce excellent mar bling effects. It is capable of being bent easily for variety of commer- cial purposes, can be worked with tools, sawed, bored and planed as freely as wood and takes nails or screws readily.

Oiling-Cleaning-Adiusting
 If an automobile is properly lubri- eated and minor adjustments made when the need demands them it will be unnecessary to arrange for com pleta overhauling of the car, such as the taking apart, cleaning, adjusting and replacing worn parts of every me chanical unit. Rattles or knocks de- velop, but will be discovered imned- lately as they occur if weekly in- spection is given by the owner, and should be attended to and .remedied at once. When the car is very old and has reached its limit of service, general overhauling may be neces- sary, although, even then there may be parts in. fair condition. '~:> ~'7"'%

 Shellac and soap are best to use as gasoline leak preventatives.
 Cord tires have only two-thirds as much rolling friction as fabric tires.
 When the winter top is taken off the car the brakes should be read justed.
 Running an automobile on car tracks is a costly habit, because 1t ruins tires.
 Squeaky springs should be soaked in gasoline before applying oil between the leaves.
 Because of their sluggish action on rough roads, rusty springs will cause damage to the ST and tires.

The Emergency Brake.

To become familiar with the loca- tion and feel" of the lever it is ad- visable for motorists to use the ener- gency brake occasionally in ordinary driving. This is suggested so that in the event of an emergency there will be no h,mbling in using it. Also, this occasional use will reveal when the brake Is out of order.
