The Oregon State Motor Association reports that this conclu sion was drawn from experiments re- ctently conducted in Washington, Iowa and North Carolina. The figure* were based on the pre-' mise of a car making 10 miles to the gallon on a rough highway. On a basis of a speed of 33 miles per hour, the test showed the cost of gasoline and tires per one thousand miles over rough roads used in the experiments was $35.10 for an average four cyl inder -car weighing 8,500 pounds loaded. The cost for the same car at the same speed over a very smooth improved road was only $12.80, ac cording to the tests. WANT ADS STAR CAR FOR SALE. Ho. 1 con dition.
