ITS EASY TO TELL
 WHERE THEY'RE
 FROM NOWADAYS

. When you see a car bearing some such license number as 14-6S392483 you may wonder who mixed up the home brew, or whether you, yourself, had taken it off to soon before it had become thoroughly cured. Don't be alarmed, however, for that first numeral means that the owner of the bus bearing it halls from the wild and woody county Apache. For the bene- fit of those who have paid insuffi- cient attention to our license number ing "system," the following key list is published, showing the numbers as- signed to the various counties and which serve to precede the regular numbers assigned to the various coun- ties and which serve to precede the regular number on the license plate. The numbers are as follows: Maricopa, 1; Cochise, 2; Pima, 3; Giia, 4; Va vapai 5; Yuma, 6; Pinai, 2; Graham, 8; Santa Cruz, g; Mohave, 10; Coconino, II; Navajo, 12; Greenlee, 13; and Apache IA.

MohaUe County Leads Rest Of State in; Number Of
 Cars OlUned Per Cupita

Mohave County leads all counties in Arizona in the number of automobiles per capita, which to say the least is some little distinction. As matter of fact Mohave county probably leads the entire west in this respect.
 The automobile registration by counties in the state is as follows: Maricopa, 11,379; Pima, S,667; Co chise, 3,413; Yavapai, 2,030; Gila' 1,s53; Yuma, 1,509; Pinal, 991; Mo- have, S46; Graham, 725; Santa Cruz GIT; Navajo, 5S3; Coconino, 4s7; Greenlee, APO, and Apache, 1855.
 The population of the counties oi Arizona is as follows: (1920 figures).
 Maricopa, s9,576; Cochise, 46,465; Pima, 34,6S0; Gila, 25,67S; Yavapai 24,016; Pinal, 16,1S0; Navajo, 16,o77i Greenlee, 16,362; Yuma, 14,S04; Apache, 13,196; Santa Cruz, 12,6s9i Graham, 1O,14s; Coconino, s,ss2; Mo have, 5,259.
 The. following table shows the au' tomobile density per county in re.a tion to population;
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1922-05-12
No. of

It will be seen from the foregoing that Mohave county has more auto mobiles per population than any other followed by Maricopa with one car to every seven and eight-tenths peo- pie.
 The preponderance of Indian popu- lation in the counties of Apache and Navajo serve to bring down the aver age in those sections, although there is a very large percentage of white people in those counties who own automobiles.
 Improved highway constructed by the state of Arizona includes 95 miles of paving located principally in Mari copa, Cochise and Pima counties. Other improved road built by the state totals 775 miles, but this does not include county roads. Although there are now about 20 pieces of road work under construction by the state it is impossible to secure the mileage as the records show only the actual mile or so under construction at the particular time the report is made.
 Federal aid money spent in the state since federal aid went into effect now totals $2,50O,00O. About two million more has been applied for and all is encountered by the particular job for which it has been asked. There is no federal aid available except where application is made for it directly for a specific road project.
 Registration figures for the year of 1921 give the state of Arizona total of 35,220 motor vehicles, exclusive of motorcycles. Of this number 1,576 are nonresident or reorganization, 3O,312 passenger cars and 4,90s trucks and commercial cars. The total of fees collected amounted to $195,9S1.75.

HERE'S WAY TO
 INSPECT PLUGS

When a spark plug is suspected of not operating, remove it from the cy- finder without disconnecting the wire terminal and lay the metal part of the plug on the engine. By turning the engine over slowly the electrical cir cult will then be completed by the commutator, and if the spark plug is working a spark will jump between the two points. If not, it is good in dication that the plug is foul and needs cleaning or else is short-circuited and worthless.

RESULTS OF OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT TESTS
 0N CATERPILLAR TIRES

The Department of Agriculture has established a division known as the Bureau of Public Roads which is mak- ing extensive tests of the road des- structive effects of various sizes of trucks and type of tires.
 The destruction of road is measur- ed as impact" which is nothing more nor lessSthan the number of pounds of "hammerblow" struck by wheel as it passes over an obstruction in the read and drops on to the surface. The resiliency of the tire and it's abil- ity to absorb shocks determine the amount of the hammer blow.
 The official tests indicate that a Caterpillar tire normally loaded pre- sents from 20 to 50So less impact than does solid under the same con- ditions of load and speed. It was shown that the impact caused by a solid tire increases in direct propor- tio nto the speed and that no road surface should be expected to with stand continuous travel of a five ton truck mounted on 40x6 inch duals at speeds with the solid tire in excess of nine miles per hour. The impact created by 40x6 inch dual CaterpiIlars carrying the same load is the same at nine miles an hour as the solid tire at four-and-half miles an hour. At fifteen miles an hour, the impact created by the Caterpillar is scarely more than that at twelve miles an hour and is the same as the solid at nine miles an hour.
 These official figures prove that where the solid tires are permitted a speed of nine or ten miles an hour Caterpillars should be permitted to travel at from fifteen to twenty, in as much as the road destructive effect is no greater.

TACOMA PLANS
 RACE MEETING

Tacoma, May 6.-With the eleventh annual speedway races scheduled for July 4th on the Tacoma track, inter- est of the racing fans of the north west has been aroused to keen anticl- patton. Last week requests for reser- vations for the big sporting event be- gan pouring into the Tacoma speed way office. One fan residing in Butte, Montana, requested that an automo- bile parking space beside the track be reserved for him. The admission prices this year have been reduced and the seats are within easy pur- chase price of every one.
 The big Tacoma speedway repre- sents an investment of $25O,0OO and is one of the finest speed plants in the country, faster even than the track at Indianapolis, where the big race of speeddom is held annually op Memor- ial day.
 The average speed made at Indian apolis hovers around the 90-mile-an- hour mark, while the drivers on the Tacoma track crowd close to the cen tury mark and beyond. Last year, Tommy Milton, the winner, averaged better than 95 miles an hour. At In- dianapolis the pilots must make 80 miles an hour to qualify. On the Tacoma oval, 90 miles an hour is the mark set to allow them to drive.
