Au-. tomoblle world here is In a fever : over the great GHdden tour finish, which occured yesterday In Jack flonville, with the Maxwell team of three cars triumphant.' This con- ' test has commanded the widest in terest of all events scheduled in this part of the country. Speed and endurance were never put to a severer test. Eighteen teams from the best car manufacturers of the country entered for the 1454-mlle Journey between New York and Florida. In the long struggle down the Atlantic aeaboard it seemed that nothing could be made more crucial, and when the Marwell team finished first, with the Stev-ens-Duryea second and the Cadil lac third, the enthusiasm of the au- ' tomoblle owners and manufactur ers rose to the highest pitch. ' The home stretch was through Florida's sand-bottomed pine for ests. Here It seemed impossible that speed could be made, but the .Maxwell trio went through it like mad. This forest reach had suc ceeded the waterbreaks of Penn sylvania, the difficulties of Shen andoah valley, the rugged trails through the Blue Ridge mountains and the oozy, red clay of the Caro lines and Georgia., That 11 of the 18 teams failed to qualify In the great contest was no surprise but that the seven gaining finish hon ors should do so In the time estab lished did make the beet students of road travel scratch their heads In amazement, October 14 waa the date for leav ing New York. The team of Stev-ens-Duryeas was entered and driv en by leading motorists of the south. . The Maxwell score was perfect while the Stevens got pen alties of 19 and the' Cadillac 23 points respectively. The penalties fixed upon the 11 teams falling to gain finish honors ranged from one to 3,000 points. A! thrilling feature of the big contest was the trophy offered by the city of Anderson, S. C., for the best Individual score, regardless of price or class. " Several tied scores resulted, among the number being Miss Birdie Marks of Athens.. Ga., who drove her silver-plated Columbia roadster the entire 1,454 miles and the Maxwell car entered by Governor Hoke Smith, of Geor gia. Both these cart had perfect, scores at the finish. At the meet ing last night to determine bow the award should be made In the draw ing Governor Smith won the tro phy for his Maxwell. , This car was driven by Arthur See, of Tarry town, N. Y., and Governor Smith rode In the car most of the way, in viting governors of states crossed to be bis guest while in their terrl- ' tory. .'; ' The 64 cars in the 18 teams en tered bad an average value of 12, 000 each, while the highest value of a car entered wag $6,500. The Maxwell team of three cars was composed of machines which, sell for $1,280. giving the automobile world something to ponder over. Press dispatch In Portland Tele gram. . ; :,. GHITEiii!

I find that on looking over the machine which has been In use the past season, that it Is going to be of great interest to the farmer in the way of saving grain, saving straw and a great reduction of hired Iibor.
