TROUT SEASON
WARNING GIVEN
Keep Out of the Smaller
Streams Declares Commis
sioner Buller Today
Trout fishermen are requested in
coming trout season, which opens next j
Saturday, to fish in the larger streams
and to keep out of the smaller tribu- I
taries in a letter addressed to the '
fishermen of the State by X. R. Buller, !
State Commissioner of Fisheries. The
department has extensive propagation
work under way and as there is always !
danger of fishermen catching the
smaller fish and injuring them in
throwing them hack again the chief of'
fisheries suggests that Ihe fishermen
angle only in the streams where the
larger and gamier fish are to be found.
In his letter Hie Commissioner savs: '
"As the season for the taking of
trout is now approaching, a few words
to the fishermen might not go amiss!
at this time. The law allows the tak
ing of forty trout in a day six inches
and over in length. The season for
taking same being from April 15 to
July 31. both dates inclusive.

aa to the proper handling of the brook
trout. Many trout which are hooked,
and on account of being under size are
returned to the stream, die. The de
partment requests that the fishermen
take every precaution and care in
handling the small trout and return
them to the stream with the least pos
sible injury. This can be done by re
leasing the trout under the water, and
in every Instance the hands of the
fisherman should be wel before touch
ing the trout. To touch a trout with
a dry hand means death to the trout,
as it removes the slime which protects
the delicate scales covering the trout.
"The department also requests the
fishermen not to fish upon the small
tributaries inhabited by trout, but to
pick out the larger streams, which are
inhabited by the larger trout.
"The law provides that no device
except a single rod and line can be
used by the fishermen in Ihe trout
streams during the open season for the
taking of trout, if the fishermen come
across any device not prescribed by
law. the department requests that
they kindly report all the facts to the
department at Harrisburg, as the de
partment feels if this co-operation
is extended to it much good will result.
"There will be thousands of fisher
men along the various trout streams
on the 15th of April and if the fisher
men will be satisfied with taking a fair
catch and leave the stream it will
mean better fishing for all.
"By observing these suggestions the
department feels that everyone will be
able to go on the streams and leave for
home satisfied."
ECONOMY IN GAS
LEAST IMPORTANT
Overland Official Says Effi
ciency of Modern Car and
Lower Price Offset Increase
"The cost of gasoline is one of the
less important items to the prospec
tive purchaser of an automobile whose
aim Is economy." This is the opinion
of one of the most prominent manu
facturers of automobiles in the world.
He bases his argument on the declara
tion that the modern car of to-day is
so complete in its equipment and so
reduced in its price that these features
entirely offset any increase in gaso
line cost which has developed or may
develop.
"The automobile buyer would ease
his mind materially about gasoline
prices by taking into consideration
other features involved in the pur
chase of the modern car," said John
N. Willys, president of the Willys-
Overland Comany recepntly. Every
automobile owner is getting more
value for his money in the automobile
market to-day than ever before.
"From the standpoint of economy
in purchase price and upkeep, we can
use our Model 76 as an excellent ex
ample of greater value for less money
than any previous offering of its kind
in automobile history. It is true that
gasoline costs a few cents more this
year than last year, but a comparison
of those few cents with the dollars
saved in purchase price almost makes
the gasoline question seem trivial.
"In our Model 75 we are to-day giv
ing the public a small, light car,
equipped as fully and extensively as
the heavier and more expensive ma
chines, at a price within the reach of
everyone. Just think of the decrease
In price of a completely equipped car
during the last two years. For $615,
the price of our Model 75. you can
now buy a car which would have been
cheap at ten or twelve hundred dol
lars but a short time ago. Here we
have an automobile, the accessories of
which alone would cost quite a sum
of money, on the market at a price
so amazingly low that the saving in
first purchase price would almost
cover the entire cost of gasoline dur
ing the first few years' driving.
And this saving is the more remark
able when you consider that Model 75
is a high quality automobile in everv
sense of the word. It is the highest
attainment in the manufacture of
automobiles on a quantity production
basis. As I said before, this model
has all the equipment so attractive in
the expensive cars, ranging from the
electric starting and lighting system,
full streamline body with sweeping
curves and crowned fenders of heavy
sheet metal, two big, roomy seats and
deep, luxurious cushions.
"Another point to be given serious
consideration is the fact that this
small, light car consumes so much
less gaßoline in its daily use that the
cost per mile for running is even less
than if gas were lower and consump
tion greater.
It would take a long time to re
late all the features of this one model,
without considering the other models,
which are practically just as revolu
tionary in quality and price. But with
a touring car of this description avail
able at such a low figure, do yoi»iwon
der that we smile a little when some
one says he hesitates to buy just be
cause gasoline has gone up in price?
The increased cost of gasoline is more
than offset by ,the decreased price of
the car and its upko«r>."
Fifteen More Indians
For the U. S. Army
In the titanic struggle now raging
in Europe, the motorcycle has proven
over and over again that it is to-day
an Indispensable part of the modern
equipment of war. War to-day with
all its mathematical exactness, with
all its prodigious demands upon me
chanical genius requires steeds and
messengers of greater stamina than
has ever been demanded hitherto. A
steed that never tires, a steed to which
distance is as nothing, one that is
not felled by a single shot, one that
does not require food and shelter, one
that has speed in its highest develop
ment—those are the requirements of
modern warfare. The horse meets none
of these requirements, the motorcycle
meets all; and therefore, comes a
change which bids fair to relegate the
horse to a very secondary position in
affairs maritime.
Chief among the motorcycles of
which through their performances,
have won recognition abroad is the
well-known Indian motorcycle, manu
factured at Springfield, Mass., by the |
Hendee Manufacturing Company.
This machine has "made good" under 1
fire, and the history which is to-day ,
in the making will sometime give full
record of the many instances where '
the Indian carried the dispatch that
turned the tide of battle, or where
the Indian bore the scout who located
the enemy's vulnerable spot. Already
there are records galore where the
Big Ked Twin has come through the
fray with flying colors— at Ypres, at
Soissons, at Verdun and elsewhere, the
Indian has played its part well, and
won words of commendation from offi
cers and men of every rank under Angs
of every nation.
Not only in fighting Europe has the
motorcycle been deemed worthy of
military recognition, for Spain has its
dispatch unit mounted on Indians, and
the same machine is familiar to mili
tary men of South America.
Towever, the greatest honor to the
Indian has come right here at home
where it has ben distinguished by its
i selection for use in the United States
I army. An order for fifteen more of
the Big Redmen has ,lust been rushed
| through the factory and delivery made
to the War Department in record time,
i and these machines will shortly be in
use in the chase after Villa now in
progress in Mexico. These latest ad
ditions to the army equipment rep
resent the very finest thing In motor
cycle construction, capable of develop
ing from fifteen to eighteen horse
power. and able to travel at a speed of
70 miles an hour.

LOWER GASOLINE
PRICES COMING
Ds. .Rittman Says Synthetic
Process Will Make Five.
Times More Available
"Synthetic gasoline will catch up
with the demand in the next six
months. You can look for higher
prices, but in the course of a year or
so most certainly we will have an avail
able supply of gasoline. We will catch
up with the demand.
"There is no cause for anxiety over
the price of gasoline," says L. H. Hag
erllng, Hudson distributor in this ter
ritory, who, in substantiation of this
comforting assurance, cites the recent
talk of Dr. Klttiuan, government expert,
before the Dayton Engineers Club.
"Dr. Kittman," says Mr. Hagerling,
"i j the man who announced a few
months ago the discovery of a new
method of getting gasoline from crude
oil. Being in the employ of the gov
ernment he devoted years of research
work to the gasoline subject and his
views at D'ayton have the stamp of
authority. Dr. Rittman's talk was as
follows:
"Expenditures of gasoline are great
er to-day than ever before. One thing
that has knocked the bottom out of
the gasoline market is the falling off
of Oklahoma crude oil. L,ess than a
year ago, Gushing field produced :iOO,-
000 barrels of crude oil, which ana
lyzed troin 26 per cent to 30 per cent,
of gasoline. In other words, ISO,Out) bar
rels per day. Now that source of sup
ply has fallen off until it is below one
thind that amount.
"That means that despite this dis
covery, which was brought out eight
months Hgo, and is represented to-day
by expenditures exceeding 000,000,
and is now being installed in ten ad
ditional plants, with twenty more want
ing it, but we simply cannot take care
of them it means that despite this
progress we cannot cope with the prob
lem, and It will be some time before
our curce catches up with the demand
curve.
"No two crude oils are the same. As
a matter of fact, two wells in the same
oilfield are different, and one will con
tain more gasoline than the other. The
average gasoline content of petroleums
in America is below 12 per cent. Hy
breaking processes we can tiling that
up to 60 per cent.; in other words, live
times what it was.
"The term gasoline meant nothing. It
is a commercial term which originally
meant those constituents which in na
tural distillation boiled off below 150
degrees Centigrade. That temperature
has been successively raised until it is
now about 17&, and is going progres
sively higher. Thai means that where
a Pennsylvania oil ten years ago pro
duced, say 10 per cent gasoline and
that same oil if anything, has deteri
orated; that is they are digging deep
er in the bowels of the earth that
same grade to-day is producing 25 per
cent.
"The heat containing oils, exempli
fied by the Oklahoma oils, are also very
variable for gasoline production. Some
of the oils as found in Texas, in the
Hemble field, which has been opened
up recently and is producing 100,000
barrels per day, contains practically 110
gasoline but contains kerosene to the
extent of about Jo per cent. Califor
nia oils and Alexican oils contain prac
tically no gasoline. The average con
tained In California oils for about
1 00,000,000 gallons produced per annum,
is about 2Va per cent. But we can pro
duce gasoline from these oils by the
'cracking process.'
"Now, then can we look forward to
the solution of this problem by ma
terials such as alcohol and com
bustibles? That is not probable for a
long time to come. Purely as a matter
of cost, alcohol does not become a fac
tor as a motor fuel until gasoline
passes forty cents per gallon.
"if you itgure the number of acres
required for raising the corn and po
tatoes to furnish alcohol for the inter
nal combustion engines, you will find
that we would use a good big part of
the United States to do it.
"There are to-day two and a half
million automobiles, or say, two and a
quarter. Figuring conservatively, es
timated 2& horsepower each, we have
the figures. 60,000,000 horsepower. The
combined horsepower of all the steam
motives In America Is less than uo per
cent, of that.
"We do not ordinarily realize that
you figure 500 gallons per machine pel'
annum. There Is considerably more
than a billion gallons right there. Then,
our rough estimate is that tor other
purposes, including export, we use 50
per cent, as much as we do for the in
ternal combustion engines.
"Another solution that is suggested
is the use of electricity. But electricity
as a means of carrying forward our
automobiles is not the thing at present,
purely as a matter of cost. So we
must wipe out this alcohol and other
combustibles.
"The mechanical engineer has done
splendid things in his line; namely, to
construct engines to use heavier fuels.
The chemical engineer method of solv
ing it would be in making gasoline out
of these kerosenes, gas oils and otlier
materials. Now, how far is this a re
ality to-day'/ 1 will answer by saying
that it is much more of a reality than
any of us realize. This very day there
are 300,000 automobiles In the country
that run on 'cracked gasoline' gaso
line made from other materials, such
as kerosene, gas oil, etc.
"Now, how much gasoline can we
hope to get by this method? On those
Eastern crudes we should get from 70
per cent, to 80 per cent, of the crude
oil. On crude such as the Mexican, we
should get 10 per cent, to 50 per cent.
So you see, we can hope to -solve this
gasoline problem by various 'cracking
processes.' 1 do not wish to limit my
self to the Bureau of Mines processes.
1 am trying to speak broadly. There
are hundreus of men working on this
problem, hundreds of intelligent men,
and that means only one thing—that
there is going to be a variety of solu
tions and processes.
"Now, then, a plant that would turn
out a thousand barrels of gasoline a
day, would make just enough to take
care of 20,000 automobiles, which is
only five days' supply, remember a
big plant, so it seems. But merely to
make up the deficit in gasoline pro
duction which has occurred since last
.luly in Oklahoma field alone, we will
have to huild fifty of those plants, in
stead of our present ten, and we are
going to he some time cutching up with
it. But once these operations come to
be standardized, they will no longer
engage the attention of those of us
who have worked them out and who
are familiar with them.
"But the pcopie .vi.l carry It fur
ther than we liave ever hoped to carry
it. That is why I say that synthetic
gasoline will catch up Ayith the demand
In the next six months. You can look
for higher prices before lower prices,
but in the course of a year or so, most
certainly we will have an available
supply of gasoline. We will catch up
with the demand."
Three Months' Production
Equals Year of 1914
It was disclosed in a report sub
mitted by officials of the company to
John N. Willys, president of the
Willys-Overland Company, on Satur
day, that all previous production rec
ords had been broken at the close of
business March 31.
This three months' statement shows
a total of 47,465 cars manufactured
and shipped.
The month of March just passed
leads with a total of nearly 20,000
cars—l9,7Bo to be exact. This com
pared with the March, 1915, produc
tion of 7,005 cars and shows a main
of 12,775 cars in the single month.
Still more remarkable is the fact
that the number of cars shipped In
the three months' period, January 1
to March 31. comes within a thousand
cars of equalling the entire yearly pro
duction of 1914.
In twelve months' time, with in
e">ased manufacturing facilities, pro
duction figures are nearly trebled, a
manufacturing and marketing achieve
ment that has yet to be equaled In
any industry.
The report of the first quarter shows
them maintaining a production sched
ule of 200,000 Overland and Willys-
Knight cars for 191fi, and marks a
new era In the quantity production of
cars of this class and price.
Motorcycle Machine Guns
Would Have Prevented
Columbus Affair
"With a couple of machine guns
mounted on motorcycle sidecars the
United States troops at Columbus,
X. M., could have made that town so
hot for the Villa bandits that mighty
few of them would have ever gotten
back across the border to Mexico
aßain," said Heagy Bros., 1200 North i
Third street, to-day.
"The United States government has
awakened to an appreciation of the
value of the motorcycle and I predict
that the time will not be far distant
when motorcycles will be in general
use by machine gun companies.
"For fast work in close quarters
under conditions such as existed at
Columbus or out in the open country
in operating against, cavalry, the mo
torcycle by reason of its speed, power
and flexibility has a great advantage.
But two men are required—one to run
the motorcycle and the other to op
erate the gun.
"The short radius in which a ma
chine gun mounted on a sidecar chassis
can be turned around makes it es
pecially adaptable for quelling a riot
or stopping a raid in a city. Just
imagine for a moment what a couple
of such outfits could liave done to
Villa's bandits that night in Columbus.
They could have poured a stream of
lead down every street in such rapid
succession that the Mexican outlaws
who escaped the first fire would have
had no alternative but to flee to the
open country.
"And before they could have made
a start on the three miles they had to
go to reach the border they could have
been overtaken by the motorcycles and
completely annihilated with the ma
chine guns. "With Villa back in the
region with which he Is familiar—
one hundred and sixty square miles of
wild, mountainous country—it will be
a hard job to put an end to the depre
dations of his outlaws. General Funs
ton is the man for the job, all right,
but had there been a couple of motor
cycle machine guns available at Co
lumbus that particular night there
would have been a quick ending of the ;
so-called Mexican problem."
