STILL CANNOT SUPPLY DEMAND | In addition to other shipments mmu,i baker has adopted the plan of consigning | two train loads of the new models each | ‘day to thelr branches, from which the | cars are passed along to dealers | Accordingly on last Monday two train- | loads of the new Studebaker models sarted, one for the Pacifio coast and one for the Atlantic comst, for distribu- tion among dealers tributary to those branches. Tuesday two more trains were under way for other branches, and en Wednesday another double trainload was |#ent out, this program to continue until ‘eadh branch house will have recelved quota of cars. . The demand for 1916 models has be #0 great that, although working day an. . 'night, the enormous Studebaker plants at Detroit and South Bend have been ui- lable to meet the sttuation. | “Because of the changes In the new {models,” sald Mr. L. J, Ollier, the sales | | manager, ‘naturally our production was | somewhat delayed. But we are now pro- 'ducing each day more care than were produced in any one day last year, and every day shows an increase. With the .great reduction In prices, while at the same time increasing the 'quality and power of the new models, we, of course, expected a Jarge demand for the cars, but really never anticipated our sales reacn- ing their present fijure, especially at this early date. “Nor is there any Indication of a slack- enivy up in the buying of cars over the country, so far as reports frém our Pathfinder Cars in__P_hilippines L.

LEAVES COMPETITORS BEHIND | §ILVER CITY, N. M., Aug. 2L—Ever' sifice the first automobile came to Bilver | grade of Church hill. Beveral months ago Silver City was startied by a challenge from a dealer in a widely advertised car. | The challenge stated the dealer's desire | to post §100 as soon as any other com- | petitor woulg do likewise. The two would then repair to Church hill and the $200 would pass to the one that could go far- thast up the grade. | A woek ago J. A. Smith bought a 191 | Maxwell. Smith drove his car a few days and late one afternoon ascertained that the $100 proposition still stood and cov ered it. The trial was bookéd for that | evening. | Maxwell Makes the Start. | By agreement, the xwell was to | make the first trial. Smith took a lons | start and tore up the first part of the | {ncline in second gear. Just before hé hit | the sandbeds Smith shifted into first. He . charged Buckley at a lively gait; Cactus | Charlie leaped into the mesquite just in time. Then he started In pursuit, yelling like a demon and losing ground at every jump. The Maxwell slowed down at the last sasd spot, but carried through to the harder going near the top and at the peak was actually gathering speed. The other car essayed the hill in first goar from the start and at a steadler speed. It plowed through the lower stretches of sand in good shape, also ex- celled the best performance prior to the contest, but began to move jerkily in the heavy golng nearer the end and stopped with about twenty feet of sand still to navigate, ‘The second and third attempts fell short of the first. An effort to rush the lower hill on second speed as the Maxwell had done resuited in disaster when, a quick shift into firet was tried. Buckley turned the $200 over to Smith and the Maxwell No Motor Car Tires to Be Had in Norway (Correspondence af The Assoclated Press.) CHRISTIANIA, Aug. 4.—Norwegian supply of tires has been exhausted, and 't s impoasible to replenish the stock to any extent because the belligerent coun- tries are taking up all the world's supply, At present it is said there 1s not a new an to be bought at any price anvwhere The eftuation 1s much more than an- noying, for it will have a serious eco- nomical effect on Norwegian farming. It Is very doubtful if any country has adopted the automobile more extenstvely in a pudblic way, for in Norway the sparscly settled hilla have never been able to support rallways and the auts- moblle has come to be the principal means of communication and transporta- uch\bolh for the farmer and commercial men; The innumerable cars which have been put to service In recent years are all of forelgn manufacture, for there -is Do automobile factory in, Norway, and the same Is true as to ofl, gasoline and tires. The importation of tires has stead- ily decreased since the European war be- &an, and the present impossibility of ob- taining new tires has forced many of the taxicabs in Christiania to go out of busl- ness. The cars on the public automobile routes in the country are wearing their tires down to the last thread, and it ap- pears thelr service may soon have to be cancelled.
