Wany Are Spending Vacations in
Great National Forests, Says
Studebaker Officiat.
“Caltfornla and West Coast people
Bave always taken full advantage of
Uncle Sam's Invitation to spend thelr
Yacations in the national forests,'' says
L. J. Olller, vice president and director
of sales of the Studebaker Corporation
*But I have noticed that during the last
year or two, people from all parts of
the United Statvs are beginning to real
f2e what wondeitul vacation land® are
oftered to the meotorist, by the United
States national forests, and these for
asts are not all segregated in the west
orn part of our country We find them
in New England, in the South and Cen
tral Atlantic States, In Oklaboma and
Arkansas, In Michigan, Wisconsin and
in Minnesota. They occupy principally
the more rugged and heavily timbered
regions of the White Mountains, the
Appalachians, the Ozark of the Eawt,
and, of course, the Hocky Mountains,
Slerra Nevada and Coust Ranges of
the West,
“There are 152 Natlonal forests in the
United Btates, and they offer not only
splendid opportunities for the camper
snd fisher, but they al®e delight the eye
with some of the most superb and ma
Jestic scenery In the world, The seeker
after health, rest and recreation can do
well to turn his attention to the na
tionay forests In our country as a sum
mer vacation land unsurpassed
“The forests, of course, are frea to
all. Visitors are not only welcome to
&:\d motor where they will,, but
ok m issues in official form, under
te of April, 1917, a most cordial in
witation to the 2,000,000 motor car users
of the United States to visit him in his
wonderful forests.
“Pirearms are permitted, and there
no restrictions on fishing and hunt
g, excepting those imposed by Btate
game lawe
“The arlandld development and im
provement of the auto highways and
natione! highways has made the na
tional forests readily accessible. Kven
the most remote und oul-of-the-way

Silvertown Tires
Used in Gas Test
A tabulation of“early reports from 63
dealers throupmm the United States,
who participated In the Franklin gaso-
Hne ecopomy test last week, shows an
exceptionally high avetage mileage for
:IM cars equipped with Silvertown Cord
res. »
As a matter of fact, these Franklin-
Silvertown ro.gonln ranged from 303
miles up to 69.4 mllu"porasulon. and
represent conditions afforded by every
kind of road in both good and bad
weather throughout the countr‘.
These flfl:m are more significant at
this time than at any other since a gen
eral wave of economy is sweeping the
country and ‘particularly “so as no spe
clal gmpqu\tionl were made for the test
which is an annual one.

made note of certain conditlons or ob
structions which prevented them from
making even greater mileage. One
driver reported that the curlosity of a
Holstein cow caused it to stop in the
middle of the road to observe the test
and thereby cause him to bring his car
to a stop. It has been granted that this
fact did reduce his mileage to no small
extent, as the gas consumed in starting
a ocar and going through the various
gears, would in reality drive the car on
high gear over level roads for a consid
erable distance.
While this Franklin test, in a great
many Instances, proved the coasting ad
vantages of Sflvertown Cord tires, it was
even a grealer test of power of gaso
line saving, for In the larger number
of eitles from which these records were
taken, there are com?lntlvely few
{rndu which will permi couung. On
he other hand, the muforlty of the dt
tances were direct pulls requiring the
ap'FMmtlon of motor power.
he xiecord of 604 miles was made
with Silvertown tires only on the rear
wheels, but eince this is the real roln!
of power contact with the road, it is all
the more important,
Brazil Is Market
For U. 8. Tractors
Another market for the forelfn trac
tor, should the American manufacturers
?et in position to supply the demands
or tractors, may be found not only in
this country, but in Brazil, as the pres
ent prosperity of Brazil has led to a re
newed interest in modern agricultural
methods and to a demand for all sorts
of American farm machinery and im
glementl. according to a report by the
ureau of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce, Jt is ex{)ected that the indus
trial and agricultural revival that has
taken place in Brazll since the first
per{)od of depression that followed the
outbreak of the war will make {tself
felt for many years to come. Agricul
tural conditions in each of the Brazilian
states (s described at length In the re
})ort, and the point {8 made that small
arms and intensive cultivation are the
rule rather than very large farms and
extensive methods such as exist in Ar
gentina. The situation In Brazil em-
Phaalzeu the importance of supplying
he demand for tractors, as more oro?u
in Brazil would mean a frenter supply
of foodstuffs for the Unlted States in
the present war,
HIGHWAYU .‘.flit ‘
America Must Wake Up to the
Advantage of Good Roads, Says
Highway Official,
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 21.—" We
must as a natlon wake up to the faot
that roads are not only necessary in
times of peace, but are of the eatest
Importancefor the mobilization nfl\rmlel
in times of var,” asserts State Highway
l.yommlulrmer George P. Coleman, of
Virginia, who is also president of the
American Assoclation of State Highway
Officiais, with which organization the
American Automoblle Association co
nreraten in the passage of the Federal
ag road act.
‘A marginal highway, as set forth in
the Chamberiain-Dent bill, along the
Atlantle Coast, the Gulf of Mexico, the
Southwestern border and the Pacific
slope, and, later, along the Northern
boundary hne, should receive the in
dorsement of all the people in this coun
try interested in its protection, and its
future development. All of us are pos
sibly allve to the fact that roads are
necessary for miMary purposes, but
very few people realize that in the con
struction of the important hirhwnys of
this country many years will pe con
sumed. Tnerefore, it is important that
this great work should be started at
an early date and pushed with as great
:‘?pldny as possible to iis final comple
on. \
‘‘While ‘main artery roads command
priority and require rugged and costly
construction, the tributaries must not
be neglected, for In many instances
these ‘feeder®’ upon occasion serve a
vital purpose even though not subject
ed to heavy traffic, except intermittent
lf'. If the National Government re
lleves a state of that road which has
the greatest military worth, it sill re
mains the bounden obligation of the
commonwealth to supply roads and then
to fiva some ald to the counties in the
bullding and maintenance of the lesser
roads. Tt is almost impossidble to say
positively what roads may meet the
military emcrgencies, and In conge
%\‘xence there must be a correlated plan,
the cost of which must be shared by the
National Government and State and
County.
"It has been suggested that war pria
cners can be logicallf/ employed in mili
tary road construction, and one finds
himself very much inclined to agree
with the suggestion of the National
Committee on Prisons that we utilize
whatever {orel{n prisoner’® we now or
will possess. Most of these men will
undoubtedly be kept in Southern States,
where the need of trunk road construe
tion awaits the earliest poseible atten
tion."”

PAIGE:
A Word of Warning
As long as the Paige-Detroit Motor Car Company's
present supply of materials lasts, Paige buyers
will enjoy the advantage of the present Paige
price.
It is estimated that this supply of materials will last
approximately 60 or go days and when the
supply is exhausted it will, obviously, again be
necessary to readjust the prices of all models
of the Paige line.
Then, as now, the Paige prices will be fixed in
proportion to the cost of materials. They are
never raised arbitrarily. That is a point on
price we wish to emphasize.
But when the last word on price is said you will
continue to select the Paige because of its me
chanical excellence, its beauty, its supreme
quality.
