There are about IB different types
of springs used in American passenger
cars, the most popular form being the
semi-eliptic. Other forms in use more
or Jess are cantilever, three-quarter
elliptic, elliptic, quarter elliptic trans,
verse, double. semi-elliptic trans
verse, compound cantilever, etc All
cars of today use leaf springs; that
is. springs composed of a number of
leaves varying usually from five to
eleven. The type of spring has little
if anything to do with the easy riding
of a car. and that is why a certain,
type will give excellent results on
one type of car and very poor re
sults on another. Weght distribution,
wheelbase. length of springs etc., are
factors in easy riding.
If one will remember the action
of a leaf spring it will be easy to
see why it is necessary to keep the
leaves lubricated. The springs must
support a load above them and at
the same time be flexible. This flex
ibility is gained by the leaves bend
ing, and in doing this they must rub
one against the other. If anything
Interferes with this rubbing action
the spring becomes stiff, and while
it is able to continue to support its
load its flexibility is lacking.' Lack
of lubrication lets rust form on the
leaves, and this in turn, prevents
the leaves from flexing properly. -At
least twice a year the spring leaves
ought to be seperated and greased
or, ffovered with graphite. If not this
len some form of interleaf lubricator
ought to be used. .
Watch Spring Shackles.
When a leaf spring deflects it flat
tens, and this means it lengthens.
This lengthening must be allowed for,
and the spring shackle is the part
which permits this action. Were it
not for the shackle the spring would
break when deflected. If the shackles
do not move freely the springs will
break. Lack of lubrication of spring
shackle bolts will cause the bolt to
rust in, place, thus preventing the
shackle from moving. Before, this
happens the spring squeaks and some
times vearj the bolt down consid
erably. Usually a rusted shackle bolt
will cause the spring to break near
the bolt, but by far the commonest
break occurs at the boat of the
spring.
This bolt holds the leaves together
t the center, or near the center. The
bolt head coming through the bottom
of the spring rests in a depression
or a hole in the spring seat, which
is part of the axle. If the spring is
allowed to move relative to the axle,
that is. if it is not well clipped to
the axle, the bolt will tend to bend,
and this tendency causes the main
leaf or others as well to crack on a
line with the center bolt. The owner
ought to tighten the spring clips
at, least once a month, for it is the
work of these clips to keep the
spring firmly in place against the
axle.
Cause of Spring Squeaks.
The so-called rebound clips or bands
I around the spring leaves are ' de
signed to prevent the leaves from
spreading. If one leaf is allowed to
work away from the others, these
I must do a little extra work, and
I sometimes they cannot stand this
work, hence breaking results. Re
bound clips ought to be tightened in
place occasionally.
Spring squeaks and spring knocks
I are caused by wear and lack of lub-
Irication. The spring knock is always
I in the shackle, and may be caused
by a worn bolt or by side play in
I t he shackle. On rough roads it is very
(difficult to find this noise because
lit is so loud that a spring shackle
lis not suspected.
vv hen a spring breaks it does not

spring ought to be installed, and not

ARRIVING.
Fishing, Ranting and Good Moun
tain Outing- Give Pleasure
to Registered Guests..
FOLEY SPRINGS, Or., Sept. 11.
(Special.) Roads have cleared .' into
Foley Springs since the recent rains
and the result has been a huge influx
of week-end visitors 'from Portland,
coming for hunting and fishing or
simply to play around the hills and
rest a bit.
C. E. Rumelin arrived Friday with
a party, including M. A. M Ashley,
Mrs. R. J.' Ashley, Mr. and Mrs. Wil
lis Ashley, Mrs. Roscoe Aslfey and
Miss Rhoda Rumelin.
I. C. Sanford drove up for a few
days' stay with his wife and daugh
ter Dorothy, and C. C. Overmire. who
arrivad Friday with Mrs. Overmire,
Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Steele and Miss
Harriet Steele, have already begun
to make life uncertain for the Dolly
Vardens in Horse creek.
Among others from Portland who
drove up for the week-end were Mr.
and Ms. Harrison Piatt, S. M. Luders
and family, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Ham
and Mrs. H. J. McDonald. Dean Col
lins and litle daughter and Mr. and
Mrs. J. L. Billups of Portland and
Miss Ednelle Collins of Dallas are
here for an indefinite stay. . .
Saturday night five cars arrived
from Bend by way of Mackenzie pass,
headed by Mr. and Mrs. F. A. McCann.
A score of Bend men and women are
in the party. Mr. McCann reports
roads in good condition through the
pass and the trip was made in five
hours' easy driving time.
Parties of deer hunters are driving
in daily from various valley points
and packing in from Foley's or the
Mackenzie bridge to points further
up where hunting is favorable.
TIRE PRICES- L
XO LIKELIHOOD OF DROP FOR
LOXG TIME TO COME.
Xle Went Fishing on Bargain That
He Wasn't to Wash Dishes or
Cook, or Do Anything.
W. C. Garbe. Portland! automobile
man, has solved the problem of going:
ion a camping and fishing trip with
out doing a bit of work. He has just
returned from six days on the Nes-
tueca river, near Beaver, in the Til
lamook country, in the course of
which, he admits, the heaviest labor
he did was to walk about the camp.
in tne party besides Mr. Uarbe were
Irs Riggs, Bert Peets and Lott Bel-
1-n. It seems that one of this gang
nvlted Mr. CJarbe to join the party,
already arranged, whereat he said he
lated camping because somebody al
ways had to clean the fish, build the
fire. cook, wash dishes or something.
'If you'll come along with us, we
fcruarantee you won't have to do one
ick of work," said Belden, or who
ever it was that did the inviting.
Whereupon Mr. Garbe unexpectedly
ccepteu and, in the fullness of his
Heart, provided transportation for all
hands. in his Studebaker big six.
And not a stroke of work did I
1o." he said on his return last week.
'.Not a dish did I wash, not a piece of
Irewood did I bring. I certainly had
ne dandy rest. I did catch four fish.
ut I didn't work for them. Didn't
ven clean them. While the other
oys were wading up to their necks in
he water I went riirht out beside the
amp. cast in my little line, and in
wo days hauled In four fish, two
ach day. ThRt certainly is the life."
To Prevent Oil Splashing.
Many drivers do not like to stop the
ngine when having their engines
Uled with oil. The result is that the
reeze from the fan blows away an
ppreciable quantity of oil. This may
' prevented by wiring a tin .wind-
hield on the proper side of the oil
asure.
Veteran In -Business Shows That
They Cost Less and Give Longer
Mileage Than in 1910.
In some way the general public has
gained the idea that tire prices are
due for a sudden and pronounced drop,
though with no signs of such a thing
on the horizon, the source of the be
lief is hard to identify. In fact, with
automobile -prices still going up in
stead of down, added freight costs hit
ting tires as hard as any other com
modity, labor prices at top notch and
manufacturers still with materials on
their hands hought in large quantities
at peak prices, a good many other
things are due to drop before the tire
market eases off.
One Portland tire man, Martin F.
Swift, manager for the Howell-Swift
Tire company, at 444 Stark street, dis
tributors here for Canton cord and
Blackstone tires, was a factory tire
representative before going Into the
retail end of the business. He has a
pretty thorough knowledge of condi
tions in the tire industry and points
out some other features of the situa
tion that the public perhaps has not
realized.
"It is un undisputed fact, as shown
by the report of thejnited States de
partment of labor," said Mr. Swift,
"that where other commodities have,
risen 100, 150 or even 200 per cent, the
price of tires has increased only 37
per cent since 1914. But that is not
the whole story, either.
"Many of the motorists of today
have been driving only in the past
one, two, three or four years. Conse
quently they don't remember as far
back as the period from 1910 to 1914.
But every veteran motorist will bear
me out in the assertion that tires to
day are not only actually cheaper in
actual money cost, but deliver far
greater mileage, another balance on
the buyer's side of the ledger, than
the old tires did.
"Take as an example a 30x3-inch
casing. Back in 1910 that casing,
which today sells for $23.50, cost the
motorist an even $36. And the tube
those days cost him $11.90 more, com
pared to only $3.75 today. These are
actual figures.
"But there is more to it than that,
for the casing that cost $36 in 1910,
only ten years ago, was guaranteed
for only 3500 miles. Today the same
casings, costing $23.50, has a flat
guarantee of 6000 miles, and if it re
ceives any care at all should go a
couple of thousand, more for good
measure.
"In the face of such facts as these
it doesn't take much further study of
the situation to show that tire prices
will not come down. They are cer
tainly down to bed rock right now."
KEEP THE PORT IX PORTLAXD
t
L. A. Eannan Has Placard for
Motorists to Voice Protests. .
Through the efforts of L. A. Han
nan, manager here for the Scripps
Booth company bf California, a lot of
Oregon motorists will be' driving
about with big red banners, "Keep
the Port in Portland" affixed to their
windshields. These banners are a pro
test against putting Portland under
the same shipping board district as
Seattle, with that -town as head
quarters. Mr. Hannan hasn't been in Portland
very long but he is taking a big in
terest in matters pertaining to the
city's welfare, and transfer of thl!
city to the Seattle district has stirred
his ire, as it has stirred the ire of
i-ll other Portlanders. He got the
idea of showing his feelings by means
of the placard, and immediately had
one pasted across his windshield.
Then the Portland Chamber of
Commerce heard of his plan, and
liked it so much that it has Indorsed
it heartily. The president's council,
an organization composed of prepl
dents of various civic organizations,
likewise has heartily approved it. And
now several other automobile compa
nies have taken it up and agreed to
print enough banners to supply every
motorist with one free.

This Is a beautiful time of year to
see Mount Rainier and Rainier Na
tional park. True, it- is becoming
chilly up in those high altitudes,
especially . at night, when all the
blankets the law allows are not too
many, but the smoke of forest fires
has been washed away by the recent
rains and the atmosphere is clear aa
a bell.
C. L. Boea of the C. L. Boss Auto
mobile company, with Mrs. Boss. W.
C. McBride, freight and passenger
agent here for the Denver & Rio
Grande, and Mrs. McBride drove, to
the park a week ago in a Hudson
super-six. They left Portland Friday
morning and. driving in by way of
the abort cut road via Mosey Rock,
which leaves the main Pacific high
way - near Toledo, Wash., reached
Longmire Springs hotel in time for
dinner. This Mossy Rock road Mr.
Boas found in fair condition, despite
it almost interminable stretches of
plank. At the Morton end of it this
plank ia smashed up, broken up and
altogether in Dad shape, but that is
the only really bad place along it.
Long, WearlMme Plank Road.
This plank road has a depressing
effect on eome drivers, but it did-n't
affect Mr. Boss. It is a one-way road
for mile after mile, with turnouts,
also of plank, every few hundred
feet. Along about half way of the
40 miles from the Pacific highway to
Morton there are several miles of
good "macadam, which give place near
Morton to more plank, this eection
of it being in execrable condition.
From Morton Mr. Boss found the
road first-class through the forests
to Mineral and fhence to Elbe, where
it connects with the main Tacoma
Mount Rainier highway.
This was Mr. Boss' first visit to
Mount Rainier National park and he
found the trip well worth the effort.
It was so clear while they were in
the park that the mountain looked
close enough almost to toirch.

Everybody Went to the Park.
That same afternoon he drove to
Tacoma. It was Saturday and with
the Sunday-Jabor day holidays ahead,
he says the highway from Tacoma
was simply a procession of cars, many
of them bringing camping equipment.
The highway became less congested
after they passed the point where
the branch road comes in from Seat
tie, but traffic vu still very heavy
all the way into Tacoma.
"Looked' as if all of northwestern
Washington was' going to the park
said Mr. Boss. T never saw a heavier
stream of travel, even on the Colum

From Tacoma Mr. Boss drove Sat
urday by main highway to Seattle
and the next day drove back by the

IX) RAN E ROAD IS IMPROVED
Overhead Crossing on Pacific
Highway at Divide Xow Open.
COTTAGE OROVE, Or.. Sept. 9.
(Special.) County Commissioner
Spencer and Road Superintendent Mc
Kay were here Tuesday looking over
a stretch of about 65 rods on the Lo
rane road near the Heine place, where
the residents have petitioned to have
the road improved and have donated
money and labor. The county court
also will complete a stretch of shout
three-quarters of a mile from the Ad
ventist school building to the foot of
the mountain.
The road through the S. C. Veatch
place and along the Medley place is
now finished and is a fine piece of
highway. Its building was warmly
contested by Mr. Veatch. whose place
is badly cut up by the taking of the
right of way from the bottom of
his pasture.
The Lorane road, upon which all
these improvements have been made,
is badly patched, but each piece of
new road removes a 'bad stretch of
highway and the work is all perma
nent. The overhead crossing at Divide,
on the Pacific highway, which has
been under dispute and construction
for ft number of years, la now open
to traffic. The settling of this struc
ture did not cause the damage at
first expected it would and putting
the crossing and the road south into
use does away with the" last of im
passable roads in this section.
Automobile Tax $21,50 0,000.
What is claimed by John A. Grogan,
collector of internal revenue, to be
the highest automobile excise tax
ever paid in the United states, was
collected from manufacturers in and
around Detroit for the first four
months of 1920, totaling to 421.600,000.
This sum represented an expenditure
of about $417,857,000 by customers.
Don't exceed speed limits.
During all the years the Ford Model T One Ton Track has been on the mar
ket, we have never had one" complaint of rear axle trouble. We have had no
complaints of motor trouble. As the motor and the rear axle are the vital funda
mentals in a motor truck, we have the right to conclude that the Ford One Ton
Truck has not only met the demands of business, but has done so in a satisfactory
and economic way. There is no other evidence so convincing as that which
comes from long practical experience. Ford One Ton Trucks are serving along
all industrial and commercial lines. You will find them everywhere. If these
statements were not facts, the demand for the Ford One Ton Truck would not
be as large as it is, because people are not buying trucks which do not give
service. Coupled with the dependability of the Ford One Ton Truck in all classes
of usage, comes the economy in operation and maintenance. On the farm, in
factory delivery, for the merchant, manufacturer, and contractor, in these days
of modern business methods, this worm-driven One Ton Ford Truck has become
an actual necessity. Come in and talk it over.
