SALEM. Or.. May IS. (Special.)
Flooded with constant Inquiries, as to
the, new motor vehicle law. Secretary
of State Olcott has- prepared a brief
statement covering the salient features
of that law as they relate directly to
the duties of those Mrivlng such Tehl
cles. His statement follows:
"Anyone not having a state license
and desiring to operate their csS be
fore June 1, 1911, must secure a li
cense under the old law, the fee being
$3. This certificate holds good until
July 31, 1911, when it will be neces
sary to secure a number under the new
law.
"The fee under this new law Is based
on the horsepower of the vehicle, ac
cording to the formula adopted by the
Association of Licensed Automobile
Manufacturers, which Is found by
squaring the bore or diameter of the
cylinders times the number of cylin
ders and dividing the result by 2. For
example, a motor vehicle having six
cylinders, the bore of which Is ' five
inches. The horsepower of such vehi
cle would be S by 6 by 8, divided by 2.5,
or 60 horsepower.

"The registration fee' must accom

all registrations of motor vehicles ex
pire on December SI of each year and
must be renewed annually. The steam
vehicles are based on the horsepower"
according to Haskell s formula.
Those applying after June 1. MIL
will be issued new numbers under the
new law. This law is effective August
I, 1911. but application can be made 60
days prior to that time. The new
number tags are t Inches by 13 Inches
and two tags are required, one for the
front and one for the rear of the ve
hicle. Reservations Xot Made.
'Owing to the complications It would
cause, no numbers will be reserved, but
same will be filed numerlcaly from one
on and according to the date received.
"Chauffeurs or owners operating a
car for hire are required to secure a
state badge before being allowed to
operate.
The Secretary of State has on hand
about 9000 pamphlet copies of the mo
tor vehicle law, containing the laws of
the road, and would be pleased to fur
nish a copy on request.
"The automobile department of the
Secretary of State's office has grown

Which Tire?
One Rim-Cuts One Cannot
One is Skimpy One 10 Oversize
The most popular tire on the market
today is the Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tire.
About 650,000 have been sold To date.
Every day we make 2,200 more. The
sale this year will reach $15,000,000.
The demand has doubled in the past
Fix months. It has thrice doubled since
two years ago. This patented tire, with
amazing quickness, has changed the
whole tire situation.
All because motorists have proved,
ten thousand times over, that No-Rim-.
Cut tires cut tire bills in two.
No Worry
One worry removed is the danger of
rim-cutting. The ordinary tire wreck?
itself if run flat. ' A punctured tire, in
a single block, may be ruined beyond
repair.
This is impossible with Goodyear
No-Rim-Cut tires. They have been
run flat in a hundred tests as far
as 20 miles. Of all
the 650.000 sold, not
oo has ever rim
cut. Under are rage

ance of rim-cutting

NEW BALL AIDS SCORE
XATIOXAIi AXD AMERICAN
LEAGUES WONDERING.
1 78 Safe Hits by Players in One Day
Is Laid to Livelier Gutta
Percha Sphere.
CHICAGO. 111.. May 20. (Special.)
Ninety-two safe hits in one day by the
teams of the National League and 86
on the same day by sluggers of the
American League, to say nothing of a
grand total of 83 by wallopers of the
American Association have set the
baseball experts to thinking, especially
as two-baggers and three-baggers In
this "swatfest were ordinary achieve
ments and only home runs were limned
in distinction.
Baseball never experienced such I
broadside of hits, the fans in the ag
gregate never before were quite so
delirious with joy and outfielders could
not recall a day when balls went so
far. so fast or so often. In point of
manual and pedal labor players came
nearer earning their fancy salaries
than they ever did before.
Indeed the scores of the year, ex
pressed In a surprising number of cases
with two figures, have been so unusual
that plajer and spectator both seek
the reason why. They believe they
have found It In the "livelier" ball used
this year. The standard ball has
cork center and a layer of gutta percha
around the cork. This combination
produces a "lively" ball. The same
force will send the bail further than
it used to.
The change has "opened up" the game
Just as football was made more spec
tacular by changes In the rules. The
spectator who loves a game well punc
tured with long drives and a score
board In which -gooseeggs are Infre
quent is getting more for his money.
The new ball makes the pitcher s task
harder and bids fair to shorten his
baseball career. The extra work lm-
posed on him may pnsslbly result in a
tire bills. And think what it saves in
annoyance.
10 Oversize
Another worry avoided is the danger
of blow-outs due to overloading. For
No-Rim-Cut tires because they are
hookless can be made 10 per cent over
size. And we do it.
This means 10 per cent more air 10
per cent added carrying capacity with
out any extra cost. For No-Rim-Cut
tires now cost the same as standard
clincher tires.
This 10 per cent oversize takes care
of your extras. With the average car,
it adds 25 per cent to the tire mileage.
Without that oversize, nine cars in ten
are given too much load.
Which tire do you want the skimpy
tire or the oversize the tire that rim
cuts or the tire that can't? Youranswer
will tell you why tens of thousands have
chosen No-Rim-Cut
tires.

return to the ball of other days. The
public will not expend its sympathy!
Cadillac car upholds
reputation for low
cost of upkeep
Users drive cars at cost of less than one and
a quarter cents per hundred miles of
travel for mechanical repairs
Some verv interesting1 figures off the
subject of motor car maintenance have
recently been made public by the Cadil
lac dealers of Dayton, Ohio.
For the purpose of enabling- them to
present some definite information to
motor car buyers, Cadillac users Ml
Dayton. Ohio, territory were interro
gated and responses were received from
fifty-two of them, stating1 the sums that
had been expended for mechanical re
pairs. The users statements disclosed the
fact that the aggregate number of miles
traveled by the fifty-two cars was
240,245, or an average of 4734 miles per
car.
The total um expended for mechani
cal repairs on the entire number of
cars was only $30.05, or an average of
the insignificant sum of about 58 cents
per car. -
The highest expenditure by any one
user, a gentleman whose car had been
driven S000 miles, waa $4.00. Ten users
expended less than $1.00 each, while
there were thirty users who had not
expended a single penny. Among those
who had expended absolutely nothing
was the user who reported the greatest
mileage, viz., 11,600.
Figured on the basis of cost per mile,
It shows that the 246,245 miles at a
total repair cost of $30.05 a vera tea
about one and a quarter centa for each
hundred miles of travel.
This Dayton record is by no means
exceptional or unusual. The same deal
er itu We a similar investigation about a
year previous. At that time reports
werp received from fiftv Cadillac users
which showed that they had driven
their cars a total of 168.580 miles at a
total expense for mecuanical repairs of
only $5.71, or an average of less than
12 cents per car for the season on the
baste of mileage, this expense figured
less than three and one-half cents for
each thousaffid miles of travel.
About the same time New York and
Indianapolis Cadillac users also fur
nished some very significant data. In i
New York the seventy-five users who

responded to the request for informs
tion reported having driven their car
an aggregate of 398.884 miles at a to
tai repair cost tor the entire seventy
five cars o'f $53.21; an average of es
than 71 cents per car or less than on
and a half cents for each hundred mile
of travel.
Still another record which, while no
snowing quite so low an expense tend
in a measure to corroborate the otherr-i
if such corroboration were needed, cam
from Indianapolis where the sixty-si
Cadillac users who replied to the in
quiry reported an aggregate mileag
of 252,599 miles at a total repair ex
pense of $71.30. an average of $1.08 oe
car. The Indianapolis records not be
ing quite so low as the others ts ac
counted for to some extent by the fac
that it includes the highest indlvidua
expense or tne tot which, in the case o
one user who hAft1-.driven his car 900'
miles, had a repdfr expense of $20.00.
In addition to the repair outlays
the matter of easollne and oil consump
tion was in the case of the New Yor
owners made the subject of investiga
tioti. This showed as high as 23 mile
to the gallon of gasoline in ordinar;
every day driving, but averaged be
tween 16 and 17 miles. In oil consump
tion some owners run as high as 100
to 1200 miles per gallon, but the aver
age was approximately 732 miles pe
gallon.
The Cadillac dealers in the citie:
mentioned, advise that these records In
elude the reports of everv user who re
sponded to the request for information
and that they are not simply a compile
tion of figures obtained from a electe
list.
With this array of evidence, comina
as u does irom several different por
tions of the country and particularly ii
view of the fact that prior to belntJ
asKed ior figures the users had no in
ti ma tion that their experiences wer
going to be made matters of record, i
Is quite reasonable to assume that
canvass of Cadillac users generallv
would show very little variation in th'i
matter of upkeep cost. j
