“Beginning with this year, the State
and county fairs in every part of the
country will have a new meaning and
added interest to every visitor, espe
cially those from the suburban and
agricultural districts, says H. M. Parr
of the Lanford-Parr Company, local
Kissel distributors. “What the busi
ness equipment show is to the busi
ness world, what the land show is te
those interested in real estate, what
the building material exihibition is to
prospective home builders, what the
sportsman’s show is to the country’s
anglers and hunters, the 1919 State
and county fairs will be to the agri
cultural population of the country, It
will be an exhibition of the latest and
most improved implements and farm
equipment ever shown in the locali
ties in which the fairs are held. The
whole atmosphere of how to increase
farm investments and crops, how to
economize time, increase personal ef
ficiency and to make life on the ‘arm
worth living.
“There are two big stages In the
farmer’s business—production and the
transportation of the results of his
labor. For every step in the produc-1
tion of his crops or produce there I.l‘
an implement or appliance ready at
hand that will save labor, decrease
cost and time and increase the pro-.
ductive ability of every acre of land.
“In the matter of the transportation
of his produce, the manufacturers of
the motor truck and automobiles have!
kept pace with the manufacture o!{
the other implements that make rec-‘
ord breaking production results possi
ble. =
“The peculiar characteristics and
special mechnical features necessary!
on motor trucks and motor cars to
make them efficient and economical
in country work have been added to
the products of those manufacturers
who have kept pace with the demand
and increasing business the farmer
will put his truck to. The same is
true of loading space, or a special
body built practically to farmers’
specifications, bodies that are adapt
able to the haulage of the particular
kind of produce which the farmer
finds necessary to haul in his truck.
“Gone are the days when it was
necessary for the farmer to hitch up
in the wee small hours of the morn
ing so that he may get to town in!
time to deliver his produce, complete
his shopping and that of his family
and get back to the homestead be
fore it is dark, a process that meant
his being absent from the scenes of
his operation practically all day, thus
holding up the work and making un
certain the productivity of his soil.
“The farmer of today if he starts
in the wee small hours of the morn
ing, it is not that he tries to get back
before dark, but that he wants to get
to town before the dew is off of his
produce and get back before dinner
at noon.” |

Mr. Karnes is too well known in

~_Rarely does one encounter a more
fitting example of the astonishing
rapidity of the motor car industry’s
growth than is afforded by the his
tory of the Splitdorf Electrical Com
pany. Not so long ago but that some
of our youngest men remember it, the
Splitdorf laboratories of New York
engaged in a small way in electrical
manufacturing. The output of the
concern was varied and of high qual
ity, which is one reason why the in
fant automobile industry of America
looked to it to supply American igni
tion apparatus.
Requierements were simple in those
days, but notwithstanding, up to that
time American manufacturers were
forced to import their ignition equip
ment. The first spark coils to be
wound in this country were turned
out by the Splitdorf Company. The
success of these coils was a strong
influence in bringing about the
change from the make-and-break ig
nition to the jump-spark system, now
universal.
Just as the Splitdorf Company was
quick to see the field for American
made coils, so the need of an Amer
fcan magneto arose when these im
provements on battery systems began
to come into vogue. Splitdorf mag
netos were among the first to be built
in this country and competed success
fully for several years with u;e Ger
man product.
Pioneering as always, it was not
long before the Splitdorf Company
determined to break away from the
original designs which the Europeans
had brought into the country and
soon the inductor type of magneto
was ready for the market. The mag.
neio was invented by a prominent
electrical engineer of Sumter, S, C,
Mr. Mason. In less than five years
it has reached a larger production
than any other American magneto
and has proven far superior to the
old type. Today the original station
ary winding magneto, named Dixie,
in honor of the section in which it
was invented, has several imitators.
The Splitdorf Electrical Company,
while patriarch of the American mag
neto industry, is still an infant in
age compared with other concerns of
its size in other electrical branches.
Such is the meteoric romance of the
motor car.
abled to eliminate entirely the old
“one man” method of repair, and can
do an ordinary overhauling job In
about one-third the time required
heretofore. Aside from the saving of
time, our new method does something
that no other shop can produce. It
absolutely cleans out every tube In
the radiator and cleanses all of the
little cells on the outside, allowing
for a free passage of water from top‘
to bottom of core. We are prepared
to give “one day service” on this class
of work, up to 100 radiators a day,‘
and from the present outlook will
have to increase our capacity before
winter.” ‘.
The new organization is chartered
under the laws of Georgia, with an
authorized capital of $25,000,
The plant is located at 52-60 Hous
ton street, and is of the daylight type
of construction.
Executive offices are at 824-325
Healey Building.

O.K. dßy Chief Chemists

The Chief Chemist of the Amer
ican Automobile Association has
given his unqualified endorse
ment to Woco “Pep.” This is one
of the highest authorities in the
motor world and is sufficient for
any motor user,

“There is a report that a strong
sentiment exists in many sections of
the country in favor of gravel roads,”
said Carl H. Page, vice president of
the Fulton Motor Truck Company,
in a talk he had with a prominent
distributor of Fulton trucks, who
took the matter up with Mr. Page,
as he said the truck manufacturers
of America and the dealers and dis
tributors are the men most interested
in the subject. Mr. Page agreed:
“We who are manufacturers of mo
tor trucks, and the Fulton Company
is now engaged on a program calling
for more than 3,000 vehicles this year,
are surely interested, but I feel that
far too little attention is being given
to this matter by the makers. To
build gravel roads would be an ex
pensive blunder. Good roads mean
roads such as those of Wayne County,
Michigan, or others equally durable,
as it looks to me. In Wayne County
they are going to carry out a season’'s
road building program with money
saved that was originally set aside
for repairs te the highways,swhich
need little or no repairs. That is the
sort of a road wanted all over Amer
‘ica, for it means the more general
use of motor trucks. If roads are to
‘benefit the farmer, the manufacturer
and the merchant equally, they must
be of the permanent type., The fu
tility of building macadam roads and
gravel roads has been shown under
the stress of war times, for such roads
have gone all to pieces under the hard
work placed upon them through exi
gencies of the times. Thousands of
Fulton trucks have naturally been
delivered by roads, and we have gath
ered much data from our distributors
and dealers on road wear and road
conditions everywhere, Roads which
are right must be such that they can
be used alike in drought or deluge,
in the heat of the summer, in the in
tense cold of the winter, and give
the minimum of vibration and permit
of sufficient speed to enable the
truck owner to compete with all other
methods of transportation. The up
keep of such a road is negligible, and
the saving in time is one great asset,
while the saving in the cendition of
the truck is still greater in returns.
The manner in which the Dixie High-~
way out of Detroit to Toledo ‘stood
the test is proof that what America
wants is like roads everywhere. That
stretch of road saw thousands upon
thousands of motor trucks traveling
to the seaboard, saw hundreds of
thousands of tons of merchandise ear
ried over the fine surface, and yet
there was not the slightest trouble at
any time during the severe winter of
1917 and 1918, nor the last winter, in
traveling this read with heavy loads
at top speed of *4e truck. And the
Detroit-Toledo road showed not the
slightest sign of wear and needed no
repairs even under tais stress of war
traffic and the regula= business traf
fic. It is that sort ¢f roads which,
built throgghout America, would in
sure boyggd any doubt the future of
the motor truck, and the Fulton Motor
Truck Company will do its share teo
insure that sort of highway.”
