GO LENGTHS TO
MAKE CERTAIN
OF QUALITY

The lengths to which the Maxwell
Motor Corporation has gone, to make
certain that its automobiles are built
in the most efficient way, are well
illustrated in recent announce
ment received by w. p. Lomas, local
Maxwell dealer, stating that a salt
water well has just been drilled
at the Detroit plants of the COM
pany and is now in use. The water
from it assures improved heat-treat-
ing of the necessary materials enter
ing Maxwell cars.
"For all intensive heat-treating
purposes tests have proved that salt
water is more desirable than fresh"
says Mr.. Tomas. This fact, as we'll
as the need for cold water that
would remain ut n constant temper
ature, prompted the corporation to
drill the well, after advice from geo
logists that salt water underles a
considerable section about Detroit.
Natural salt water, of the exact
solution and temperature wanted was
struck at 851 feet below the surface
Its constant temperature is SIS de-
grees Fahrenheit, the correct cool
ness for best heat-treating.
This we'll enables Maxwell to elm
mate the daily purchase of 1000 of
ice during the summer, and also that
of considerable quantity of salt
to make brine. Estimated costs of
getting the water to the surface was
less than half of those of city water
to which must be added other costs
because it is fresh.
"The we'll will yield a far greater
supply of salt water than is neces-
sary as yet. Its yearly capacity is
estimated at 31,20O,0OO gallons. Thir-
ty six thousand gallons are now By
ing consumed per ten hour working
day"

LOWER RATE
IS ORDERED
State to Save on Freight
Rates to Insane Hospital

A new basis Of freight rates on
the Midland Continental railroad,
operating from jamestown to Edge
ley. is ordered by the state railroad
commission, in deciding the case
brought by the state board of nd
ministration against several car
riers, seeking reparation because of
alleged excessive freight rates on
coal from Jane stown to the state in
sane hospital and asking a lower
basis.
The commission, in an opinion by
Commissioner Mcdonnell. holds that
the present rate Of the Midland Con-
tinental for the three-mile haul to
the insane hospital is excessive. 1t
approves as basis of division on
coal hauled over other railroads
and the Midland Continental, tina,
the roads may pro rate the freight
rate, with the shorter line being al
lowed a 25 percent maximum charge
The carriers are ordered to pub
lish new tariffs, on or before July
l, with the new rates, and to agree
on a division of the revenue them
selves. Failing, the railroad com
mission will issue tariff.
The Midland Continental, the de.
cision says, had agreed to accept
joint through rates, but proposed
that they receive 33 l-3 percent OF
the amount restricted to their local
rate as n maximum, and later agreed
to accept pro rata basis.
1t was agreed by parties to the
suit that the state board could not
gain reparatiOn for alleged exces.
sive tariffs in the past, the decision
states. The proposed new rates
however, will considerably lower tc
the state the cost of transporting
coal to the insane hospital at James
town, according to officials.
