Graven, Slnklynu county highway engineer, nccoinnnntoil by Division Engineer T. A. Uodrord of Ilia California highway commission, left for Southern Oregon last weoU to look over and study the Jackson county unit of the orostri Blnto high way. tTliey Inspected tho grades on tho Sltklyottft now bolug constructed, nnd found this portion of tho work lining linndled In a systematic and skillful manner. Tho road over tho Slsklyous will bo 2 feet In width and will bo surfaced with concrete for n width of JG feet, with shoulders of crushed rock or gravel. The maxi mum grade is six per cent and the minimum radius of blind curves is 100 feet, while on open curves it Is 200 fcot. The avorago cost of grad ing this section of Uie road Is about 110,000 per nillo. They also Inspected the concrete surfaced section of tho highway now being laid between Med ford nnd Cen tral Tolnt, accompanied by the engi neer In chargo, and Mr. Graves states that this work also Ik of a high class and very permanent nature, hut in his opinion Is qulto expensive in com parison with the California work of like character. Tho concrete surfacing of 16 feet in width and five inches in thickness is being laid in two courses with a very Interesting nnd efficient equip ment of machinery and a force of skilled mechanics under tho able management nnd supervision of As sistant State Engineer Klttrldg. who has chargo of the entire Jackson county work under Major llouluy. stato engineer of Oregon. Tho concrete surfacing, os above stated, consists of two courses, hav ing a total thickness of five Inches The lower course, or base, consists of two parts cement, two arid half sand or tines, and f Ivo parts coarse crushed rock, -while tho upper or finishing course consists of two parts cement to two parts sand and f Ino crushed rock and a small portion or lime. The materials arc distributed for n mite or two ahead of the work along the sides of the road by traction cngtne and dump cars. Tho mixing and dls trlbutlrig of the concrete on tho fin ished road Is done by one machine which Is run upon m track. This Is followed by a forming and rolling machine, also run on a track, which forms and rolls each course of con crete as It Is delivered by the mixer. Tho wearing surfaco Is then trowelled by hand by expert work men, after which It la covered with sand and thoroughly seasoned for several days. About 300 linear feet of surface 1C feet in width is laid per day of eight hours, and tho aver ago cost per mllo runs from $10,000 to $12,000. Mr. Klttrldgo Informed Mr. Graves that tho gardlng or tholroad to the California lino would bo completed by Novombor, by which tW tho Cali fornia highway comirilsilon expect to havo the California highway com plctcd from tho lino to Hornbrodk.

The head of one of the greatest steel mills in America walked into a Studebaker store last week and said: "Send me out a Studebaker SIX. Studebakers are the hardest people in the automobile business to satisfy on steels. Judging by their chemical, metallur gical, and physical tests, this must be the best" Six" in the world". Economical Light-Weight r Sfagss, 1575 mZimtmrnr '"" a'mm WW i One of the reasons why Studebakers are the hardest people in the automobile business to satisfy on steels is this: In no other way than by heat treatment of steels can the strength of a "SIX" be ' greatly increased while the weight is being decreased. In no other way than by the scientific distribution of this weight through intensive manufacturing can that balance be secured which results in the superb road ability of the Studebaker SIX. And the important thing for you to remember is that the Studebaker SIX stands ab solutely 'alone among light "Sixes" in the application of manufacturing methods without which light-weight, strength, balance and roadability are impossible. How Studebaker SIX Superiority Shows Itself ' ... . . ... - .. i net., ii ThcStudcbnkcr SIXwiHglidc silently irom a standing start on high into a forty mile gait, in a distance of less than 200 yards. Tlie Studebaker SIX when it is skimming along at a high rate of speed will ac tually seem to you from the lack of effort and vibra tionto be going at a rate ten miles per hour less. The Studebaker SIX will stick to a straight line with scarcely a touch on the steering wheel, mile after milci and hour after hour while other "Sixes" are constantly creeping to one side or the other, and being coaxed back. Tho Studebaker SIX will lake steeper hills and more of them, on ItiKli, than any other "Six" it meets in u days run. The Studebaker SIX i not merely motor-silent, but Hilcnt nil over the transmission on the roar axle, in addition to its other advantages, contributing to that result.
