' yJ.. A. Crlttendon, sales manager of the
automobile department' of the John
New Tork. Jan. 29. One of the
most : Interesting exhibits , In . con
nection -with the automobile show la a
section devoted to motorcycles, and the
management were more than gratified at
the large. Interest -displayed in the ex
hibit t'tiV;:ir!-'V" '
.-Sixteen 'Of the most prominent motor
cycle manufacturers' of the. country are
showing their very latest models, one of-
which shows marvelous detail improve
ments over lilt. - v
It, is estimated that there are at least
75,000 motorcycles In use In this coun
try. The output for 1912 Is estimated
at 60,000. One manufacturer alone will
manufacture 15,000 during the ensuing
year.
: One of the greatest Improvements
shown Is an armored type of magneto,
which Is the same make as that used
on the best autombbile, but much lower
In cost. It Is however, more advanced
than the car type, for It is entirely pro
tected from water, dust or oil. No cover
is necessary , and even the terminals are
housed, so that the Instrument Is now
practically trouble proof. A large num
ber of prominent automobile manufac
turers are considering the us 'of this
type of magneto for their 11J produc
tion. . , ,-. , ' i
' Another Improvement is the clutch.
This Is similar to the motor car clutch,
and Is operated by a convenient hand
lever. Together with a double Jet car
buretor, this clutch enables . the rider
to obtain almost any speed. He can
adapt himself to any trafflo conditions,
and bring his machine to a stop without
"killing" his motor. Just like a car.

tives of tho Velle Motor Car company,

A specially built and equipped 35

pher, and will arrive In Portland about

roadster line ever to be shown in Port
land. Charles D. Mead, manager of Um

business in connection with his firm.
Mr. Mead will visit' the Federal Tiro
factory at Milwaukee, for the purpose
of selecting stock for the Oregon ter
ritory. - The West Coast Supply corn
pany have Just closed the Oregon agen
cy with the Federal . people and will
