ADHERE STRICTLY
TO ROAD RULES AND
AVOID TROUBLE

If every automobile driver will
adhere strictly to the code of Civ
ing the car on the right the right
of-way, many of the fatal automo-
bile accidents that shock the read
ers of the daily papers every day
can be avoided.
This is the opinion of Dali H..
Lewis, acting executive chairman
of the American Automobile asso-
citation, who has been studying
driving regulations for many
years.
mo automobile driver should be
compelled to watch both sides of
the street." said Mr.. Lewis. Tine
rule OF the road, both in the city
and in the open country, is that
the driver on the right has the
right -of-way. and there should be
a severe punishment for any per-
son who violates that rule.
1.-THE increasing number of au-
tomobiles that congest traffic in
the cities brings more and more to
the front the question of right-of-
way. Most cities provide in their
ordinances that the A. A. A. sys-
TEN of giving the road to the man
on the right, except on through
boulevards, shall be effective, but
unfortunately it is not always OBJ
served There is always the fell
low who Is willing to take q
chance in order to display his
driving skill, or to show off be-
fore some fair companion and this
type of driver should be the target
for every policeman's attention.
Automobile driving should be q
pleasure. There is seldom an &C.
casion where extreme haste is nee
essary, and the motorist loses
mighty few seconds in observing
the rights of the man on the right.
After you reach the hospital or
morgue, it doesn't matter much
who had the right-of but a
little patience would avoid many a
run for the ambulance and many
an operation for the surgeon, as
well as considerable physical pain
for the driver who forgot to con-
slider the other fellows right to
the right-of-Way."

THE SAVAGE TIRE
MAN TELLS HOW TO
GET AT YOUR COSTS

Everyone has heard the story
about the rubbers being put at the
end of lead pencils because of the
mistakes that are made with the
other end of the pencil. A local
tire man, however, states that the
points are put on pencils in order
to use them in figuring up the cost
of tires.
In figuring up tire cost many
motorists neglect to take into con-
sideration the funds that are tied
I'M in their extra tire equipment.
This point was brought out by
Fred Higgins, of the Central Auto
& Machine Works, local Savage
Tire distributors.
The truth of the matter Is that
the extra tire, even If it Is never
taken off the rack, Is subject to
process of disintegration and must
be estimated as a portion of the
tire cost just the same as the tires
that have actually been run on the
wheels. Tire covers help to pre-
vent deterioration to some extent,
and for this reason as well as for
looks the extra tires should always
be kept covered.
The expense of the extra tire is.
of course, increased where two or
more spares are carried, and there
is probably no greater false econ
omy than to purchase tires of low
quality because of low price and
then spend money on spares that
would have bought the finest tire.

BIG ROAD PROJECTS
PLANNED BY MANY
SOUTHERN STATES

In road building and street paw
ing work the southern states are
showing greater activity than at
any time in their history. Con-
tracts reported during the past
four months aggregate in value
about $40,000,000. Every state in
the south is showing tremendous
progress, especially in road i'm
provement. Contracts awarded in
the last four months include, in
value, the following: Alabama.

HUDSON ESSEX WINS
IMPORTANT RACES
AT MANY CONTESTS

Both Essex and Hudson cars
have been winning a number of
important races in various parts of
the world recently. Down in Ma
con, Ga, Harry Luton, of Atlanta,
driving an Essex, won the south
ern championship event, a 1O-mile
race, from a large field of entries
William Stuart, who, because of
the wonderful success he has had
with an Essex in reliability con-
tests in Australia, has come to be
known as probably the greatest
driver on that continent, for the
third consecutive time won the
one day reliability contest promot-
ed by the Royal Automobile club
of Australia, against 10 other
American and European cars. His
car made perfect mark in every
part of the contests, scoring 400
points out of a possible 400.
Mr., Stuart has driven this same
car in contests for two years and
has never been beaten. His son,
w. j. Stuart, has also had splendid
success in driving Hudsons.
Because of the splendid per-
Torrance Of Mr.. Stuart's Essex, he
is now well in the lead among
competitors for the valuable Dun
lop Aggregate trophy.
The Super-Six also won the i'm
portant contests at Caerphilly,
Wales, the second most important
automobile contest on the British
Isles. Another Hudson recently
Showed its heels to the field in
the five-mile race and later won
another over the same distance. In
fact, Essex and Hudsons took
away almost all the honors in the
races they entered.
In the Macon races, another Es-
sex won the three-mile race from
flying start. i. j. Galloway, driv-
ing the Hudson which was forced
out in the southern dirt track
championship event by a puncture,
won three events in it prior to
that. He covered the circular mile
in SO seconds, one second faster
than Luton's Essex and slightly
faster than the third car. another
Essex. The Super-Six also won
a big race near Stockholm.

NEW PRICES OF
STUDEBAKER CARS
ARE ANNOUNCED

Important reductions in the
prices of all Studebaker cars, ell
fective August !, are announced
Inv the Studebaker Corporation OF
America, through President A. Il.
E,rskine. The reductions range
from $40 to $500 on the Light-SiX
models: from $175 to $500 on
Special-Six models, and from $3.50
to 1926 on Big-SiX models.
although we have on hand UNI
filled orders for Is, 600 cars, SAID
President Erskine, sit is a Stude-
baker policy of long standing that
our manufacturing savings be
shared with our customers-hence
the reductions. The quality of
Studebaker cars has not been de-
creased one iota. on the contrary,
they are better than ever and Of
fer the greatest values in the his
tory of Studehaker.
"Studebaker plants, representing
the investment of $3S,0OO,O00, OPP
Grating at capacity, produced co.
900 cars the first six months OF
this year. and broke all records.
Everybody knows that standard
lied cars manufactured complete
in large quantities reduce the cost
of manufacturing and marketing
and therefore give the greatest in
trinsic value per dollar of price.
by manufacturing complete
motors, transmissions, axies,
frames, bodies, tops, castings,
forgings and stampings, parts
makers profits on such items in
Studebaker cars re eliminated
and one profit only is included In
Studebaker prices. Buyers bene-
fit accordingly
with S7S,0O0,0O0 of actual net
assets, including $3S,000,000 of
plants, and an organization of
able, experienced men and work
ers who participate in the profits
of the business, Studebaker stands
unsurpassed in resources and abil-
ity to manufacture economically
and give maximum intrinsic value
for a given price.
1.-THE worldwide popularity of
Studebaker cars rests upon their
dependable performance in own
ers' use. Proof of their dependa-
bility is found in the fact that our
sales of repair parts, covering re-
pairs from accidents as well as
service, for the past seven months
averaged but 81 per car for the
100000 Studebaker cars now in
operation. In the 80 months since
January ], 1920, we produced and
sold 5000 Studebaker cars and
are now producing and selling at
the rate of $4,000 cars per year
(practically double last years
volume which was the greatest in
the history of Studebaker) and yet
our total sales of repair parts this
year are less than they were for
the first seven months of 1919"

"STUDEBAKER" YEAR
PREDICTION TRUE

Predictions that this will be
"Studebaker year" in Albuquerque
are rapidly being fulfilled by the
Cooper Motor company, local Stu
debaker distributors, who are
making deliveries on all three
sizes of the new Studebakers just
as fast as they can get cars from
the factory.
The light six, special and big
six each continue to be one of the
most popular cars in their respec-
tive classes, and every local owner
is as much a booster of Studeba-
ker's and Studebaker service as
rendered by the Cooper organiza-
ton as are the statesmen.

TIE SOURCE OF NOISES

Loud squeaks in the car some
times come from the rubbing of
the body where it rests on the
chassis. Loosen the body bolts,
apply oil to all parts where the
body touches the frame, tighten
the bolts and the noises will be
eliminated.

.RTUSTER a few Of the facts that
1v1 stamp Type 81 as fine car,
then see if you do not agree with
its owners that the new Cadillac
is an outstanding motor car value.
In the first place, you know that
Cadillac has had the advantage of
twenty years experience in building
exclusively one quality car.
You know that out Of its unique
experience Cadillac has evolved a
standard craftsmanship and pre-
cision manufacture that could
scarcely be arrived at in any other
way.
You are aware that the Type 81
Cadillac, built in accordance with
these precision methods, is declared
by European and American en-
gineers to surpass all previous
Cadillac records for dependability.

NATIONAL PARK IN S. D.

The officers of the United States
land office in Rapid City have received
an executive order, which withdraws
from the public domain an aggregate
of 34,550 acres of land, situated in
the famous bad lands section of west
ern South Dakota, north Of Sonata.
1t is believed the withdrawal fore
shadows the creation of a new III
tional park in the famous bad lands
region.
The executive order withdraws the
34.550 acres for Reconsideration, pend
ing the enactment of appropriate leg
islation. OF the land withdrawn, 5000
acres is in the Pierre land district.
In the bad lands section fossils of
prehistoric animals are not difficult to
find and the rare discoveries there
have made the region known the world
over. The region also Is one of the
most picturesque on the American
continent, it's castellated buttes and
barren and broken wastes and gro
tesque scenery being familiar to those
who have visited the region covered
by the bad lands.

that more persons are doing 1t now
whereas before the discriminating
buyer for the most part was one who
always wanted the best and did not
count the cost.
Central Ohio cities built up on the
rubber industry are in for booms, ac-
cording to plans announced by manu-
facturers, who say they will extend
and expand their plants on large
scales. News comes from Akron that
several tire manufacturers there will
add units to their already extensive
plants, increasing both pay rolls and
the lowered prices, which encourage
extensive buying.
Huge orders for cars of all descrip-
tons continue to be placed by rail
roads. Single car builders have orders
for thousands Of coal and freight cars
and are using vast amounts of material
and employing hundreds of men to
meet them.
Cotton is higher, due to heavy ship
ments for export. England has made
a heavy demand Upon American cot
ton and SO have other European coun-
tries. Spain alone recently purchased
more than 100000 bales Of American
cotton, and Japan also is buying heav-
lily. Grains are off somewhat because
of Argentine and Canadian competi-
ton.

MOTOR TRAINS

The motor train is now being intro
duced into South Dakota as a solution
of the passenger traffic problem. The
steam passenger trains that run over
branch lines in this state are extremely
costly in operation and the traffic I'VE
them is insufficient to make them pay.
The railroad companies operating in
this state frankly state that their pas
senger trains are all run at a loss.
This is the principal reason why train
service is so very poor in this state
and constantly growing worse. Pas,
senger rates are extremely high but
this does not seem TO help matters.
The only way out seems to be the mo-
tor train which can be run at a low
cost with increased service.
The motor train. which is simply a
combination passenger coach and bag
gage coach. equipped with a powerful
gasoline motor, is capable Of a speed
of IS miles per hour at an average
cost of Is cents per mile which in
cludes fuel, oil, repairs, salaries of mo-
torman n conductor, insurance, etc.
The cost Of running a steam train car
rying the same amount of traffic would
be about AZ cents per mile. BY adding
a trailer the motor car can double its
carrying capacity. The single car
holds about 80 passengers while the
two car train seats SO passengers.
Motor trains have been given a thor
ough test on a number Of branch lines
in different parts Of the country and
they have proven very successful.
While motor bus routes are success
full when the roads are good they can
not be run as cheaply nor as depend
ably as a motor train over rails. From
an outsiders opinion 1t would appear
that If South Dakota is to have better
and cheaper passenger service it will
come through a wider use of motor
trains on the lines in this state.

BUSINE SIS

Sioux City Journal-Merchants and
manufacturers in the middle west, ac-
cording to the October report of the
Eighth federal reserve district, are
doing more business. The gains in
sales are substantial in some Of the
most important lines and the volume
Of the trade increase sufficiently sat
isfactory to create much more opti-
mism that had been noted since DELTA
ton first hit the country. Steel pro-
duction in the middle west producing
centers has gone ahead appreciably
in the past week. Orders for %structur-
al iron and steel promises an active
building campaign throughout the win
ter, and that will mean employment
and money in circulation. Costs of
iron and steel are increasing at the
factories and foundries and the one
sure result of that is advance in prices.
1t may surprise many persons that
western farmers are in good shape
financially in various sections. One
Chicago bank which deals extensively
with agricultural leaders reported
that borrowing farmers anticipated
their installments due November / to
the extent of fully 80 per cent. This
refers both to the number and the
amount of payments made. Mortgages
will not last long il hat keeps up,
but what the middle west farmers in
the corn and wheat belt want now
more than anything else is the oppor-
tunity to transform grain into cash.
This they cannot do because no one
will pay for the grain that seems des-
tined to remain on the farm or in the
small elevators because of the car
shortage. In the big hauling rush
that has been going on for sew.
eral weeks with all the big railroads
straining to meet the emergency sit
uation isolated sections are being
neglected and there the farmers are
suffering. They are not paying their
notes before they are due.
Merchants are selling goods, and
Of course, customers are buying them
But a new kind of buyer has arrived
according to eastern observers. This
is n who demands goods Of better
grade and higher price, yet it is point
ed out that the idea is one for econ
omy. The consumer reasons it on,
this way-that the better quality
goods, even II they do cost more, will
last longer and give better service
There is nothing new in that excep
