I BIRMINGHAM FAT- STOCK SHOW. I WELSH BLACK CATTLE EXHIBITS. Welsh Black Cattle wore well repre- sented at the Birmingham 67th annual fat stock show this week. Three classes were allocated to the breed and attracted nine entries, which com- pares well with tne exhibits in other classes. In the class for Welsh steers over 2 and not exceeding 3 years too first prize of £ 10 oajsh tiLnid the (special prize ot £20 givem by the Show Committee went to L/ord Snefiield's fine exhibit "MynycUiog. ihe second prize winner was Mr iv, M. Greaves, Portmadoc, with "Penllyn iiaig," and -Lord Sheffield's "CYffirO," au even- fleslied bullcok with a good top line, was reserve. This bullock was really deserving ot a better position. Welsh steers not exceeding two years old: 1 ( £ 10), Mr R. M. Greaves' 'Wern Tom;" 2, Mx Greaves' "Penllyn French;" li., Hon. Mn; L. A. Brodrick, Coed Cocn, Abergele. > Welsh cowa oor heifers: 1, Mr Greaves' "Wern Pear" (a beautiful quality heifer, very even of "flesh and with perfect lines) 2, Lord Sheffield's "larion" (a good quality heiier); 3, Mr Greaves' "Wern Queenie" Most of these exhibits will be shown at London next week. Messrs Collins Bros., of Evesham, bought Lord Sheffield's first and reserve prize pair at a long figure. The "Birmingham Daily Poet" in its report of the show spoke very highly of Welsh Black Cattle. "This hardy, oreed," stated the writer, "is very popular in the Midlands for the purpose of the butcher. Lord Sheffield claimed first prize for t.vo- year-old steers, and abo the breed honour with "Mynyddog," weighing 15s cwts. This was an outstanding winner, for the steer is compactly grown, dteep in rib, level in flesh, and possessing a remark- ably good chine." Among the local gentlemen interested in Welsh Black Cattle who attended the show were M:r Parker Mackenzie, the secretary of tM Welsh Black Cattle So- ciety, and Mr T. G. Owen, Penrhos, Holy- head.

A schoolboy, William Francis Gibbons, the only child of a Tunbridge Weli: post office sorter, has designed and planned his father's house—a six-roomed cottage on the outskirts of Tunbridge W o]s. The plans have been passed by the local Housing Committee. The "record"- price of 105s per 100 is now offered for the skins of moles trapped in Somerset, Claiming compensation for injury at Llanelly County Court, on Monday, a labourer adpitte^i. that his earnings were za a weeJrfc The death sentence upon George Richard Rowland for the murder of hie sweetheart passed at Lincoln Assizes, has been re- epited, with a view to commutation to penal servitude for life.

Although the weather during the past week has been comparatively mild, tI-4) prevalence of rain or drizzle has made it decidedly uncomfortable for all-persons engaged in outdoor pursuits. According to the weather prophets wetmay expect a mild south-westerly tyro of weather. Yesterday, within the space of tarce or- four hours, remarkably s-udden changes were witnessed. When" the sky warS over- cast a. ioud peal of thunder was the ticald of a heavy downpour of f:-tin.. In a. short time the clouds cleared, and a bri-ght bme sky -continued, but only for a. short interval. Towards the evening the temperature ieli and tne wind freshened. Chiefly owning to the very large supply of cattle at London, where the numbers showed an increase of 3000 on the week, the total at all markets was greater than the previous week by about 1700. Salford also showed an increase of about 350, but at most of the provincial markets num- bers were below the heavy offerings of the previous wek. The quality also has not been so good. Sheep were in excess of the previous week's supply at Salford by fully 4000, but. this was counterbalanced by decreases at ""both London and Nowcastle-on-Tyne, while at other places the supplies gener- ally were rather below the previous week's level. Skins oontinu.e to advance slightly in price, some Longwool tup skins at King's Lynn being valued at 27s 6d each. Calves are still being bought largely for slaughter, but are no dearer, in fact, the tendency is to rather easier rates, while it is noted that at some places a few more of the best quality animals have been bought for rearing. Pigs show no parti- cular change either in numbers or quality. Dairy cows mark a pretty general ad- vance in price; five cows at Presrton aver- aged £75 8s per head, with a top quota- tion of £100, while at other places B70 to j375 was realised for- the best cows. At the special sale of in-calvers at Preston, very high prices were realised, two cows of special merit realising no less than £ 147 and £ 155 respectively. Store cattle have been in rather better demand, especially strong beasts in forward condition, this class making up to 78s 6d per live cwt. at Shrewsbury, while at Peterborough some WeUi runts made up to JS33 per head. Store pigs s how no particular .change in price, although tho tendency is towards higher values. Most of the travelling cheeee schools have now closed for the season. Tho necessity of improving the general standard of milk production is being recognised in several oount-icis, and many instructresses in oheese-making, who were appointed on a temporary basis, have been offered per- manent employment so that they may give advice in dairy production during the winter. Certificates are issued by the Board of Agriculture in respect of oows whose re- cords have been taken for a period of not less than six months ending on 1st Octo- ber, provided that the Regulations of the Board have been' duly carried out to the Board's satisfaction. Cows that yield 8000 lbs. in a milk recording year (ending 1st October) or an average of 6500 lbs. for two consecutive years, are eligible for en- try in the Board's Dairy Register. It has been decided that the second Na- tional Rat Week 9hall open on Monday, the 29th December, It may seem to some that this date comes awkwardly in rotation to the Christmas holidays, but it will appear well chosen when we remem- ber that if all goes well, the Rats and Mice (Destruction) Bill will come into force on January 1st. It is very import- ant to give those who, for any reason have found themselves unablo to join in con- certed action against rats, one more oppor- tunity of doing so before the law steps in and substitutes a command for a request. People concerned with horse breeding would do well to procure a copy of the Statutory Rules and Orders (1919 No. 1439) whion costs Id at the Stationery Office, or its various agencies, The Horse Breeding Act supersedes the Board of Agriculture's voluntary registration of stallions, under which 2334 stallions were registered last year, and its primary object is to rid the country of the unsound and unsuitable travelluig stallions, which have done so much harm to the horse-breeding industry in past years. The Agricultural Wages Board, at their meeting in London on Thursday, discussed the advisability of fixing special minimum rates of wages for workers employed in throshing. operations, but decided to take no action in the matter. At Oswestry Town Council, on Monday, Councillor Whitfield complained that while cattle could not be got away from Oswes- try, Cambrian trucks were being used oon. veying Irish cattle from Holyhead to Bir- kenhead. Mr Whitfield's contention was that cattle should be shipped direct from Dublin to Birkenhead, saving rail trans- port. Sir R. J. Thomas, M.P., addressin^g a meeting of Denbighshire farmers ai Wrexham on Monday, said people seemed to forget that Wales was a nation of small-holders. There were over 40,000 farms in Wales of under 50 acres. What was wanted was a policy that would pro- vide for thp interests of the small- holder, and that could be secured by hav- ing only one farmers' union for Wales instead of two. Shire horse breeders are seriously ex- ercised in mind over a far-reaching pro- posal which comes before the Council of the Shire Horse Society at a meeting in London next week to olose the Stud Book to mares and fillies that have not regis- tered dams, a.9 well as registered sires. Strong opposition to the proposal was ex- pressed on Monday at a meeting of the Montgomeryshire Shire Horse Association. Mr J. R. Chambers, the organiser of the Welsh Farmers' Union, has termi- nated a successful mission on behalf of the Union in Carmarthenshire. At a meeting of the Executive Com- mittee of the Morionethsihiro Agricultural Society, held at Dolgelley, Mr J. Morris Jones, LlanuwchJlyn, was appointed secre- tary to the society. There were three ap- plicants for the post.

SUGGESTED Tit AC TOR TRIALS IN I ANGLESEY. W riting to the L'loriannydd, a corres- Writing to the (.'?'tanny  a corres- pondent makes the 10,!{)wing guggtion.s:- The larmers of Anglesey to-day are turn- ing to L,e mechanical side of agriculture, and especially t.ae Fordaon Tractor has come to the county to stay. One continu- ally sees in farming periodicals accounts oi tractor tests and competitions in various parts of tue country, and if one were to visit the locality of thtt>o trials he would find that tuere lay the most successful tractor cultivation. Nearly all the recent County Council tractors are now in the iaxmens' possession, and it 19 fort the farmers to make them a success. Would not a tractor competition be the right thing in tne right place 101 Anglesey ? Sucn an event, apart from being a novelty, would be of the greatest neip to the big farmers of the county. I am sure that this subject wiil appeal to all tractor own-ers and others who are interested in them, and it would not be a bad iciea.ii one-or the farmers' Unions were to kindly carry tne matter on. since, it must be remembered, that if increased production is imperative increased plough- ing is osHuial, and competition is the best stimulus for any new movement, what- ever it i.

TAXATION OF MOTORS. I ANOMALIES DEMANDING RE- I ADJUSTMENT, t This week's Motor states that the whole question of motor car taxation is receiving the a,t,te.nt'o-n of the the attention of the Motoring Associa- tions. There are a good many anomalies in the present system. For instance, the Ford" car is taxed at 6 guineas, yet a Light" ca.r, costing originally twice as much perhaps, is taxed at 3 guineas. On a price basis this is obviously unfair to "Ford" mot ot owners. This car is called the "poor man's car," and yet the "poor" man is penalised to the amount of an extra 3 guineas-for the privilege of buy- ing the cheapest ca.r on the market. Fur- ther, it is extremely desirable that the •tax (shall be for 12 months' use, and not as a.t present be payable in January the 1st in each year. If a car is purchased in tho middle of the year, the tax only To- mains in force till the end of that year, which is a great drawback to all oar owners. In pursuance of its progressive policy of promoting as fa,1' as possible legislation of advantage to motorists generally, and particularly to motor-cyclists, tho Auto- Cycle Union has recently been giving special attention to the subject of motor taxation. On the assumption that some taxation of motor vehicles is inevitable, the A.C.U. are of opinion that such taxa- tion should, as far as possible, bo pro- pcrtioned to "user." The Union thinks that the taxation of motor spirit is the most practical method of so spreading the burden over the whole motoring commun- ity, and that there should therefore be a flat rate of 4d per gallon import .duty on all imported motor spirit used by mechan- ical road vehicles of every description. If, in addition to the tax based on the use made of motor vehicles, an annual charge on motor-cycles is also to bo levied, the A.C.U. is of the opinion that it should take the form of a wheel tax on all road vehicles of, say, 2s 6d per wheel, such tax being a fee for licence to use the road for one year from the date of pay- ment.

I THE "RAPSON" TYRE. I The Royal Automobile Club reports that the official trial of the Rapson" tyre has come to an end at 5732 miles owing to the withdrawal of the tyres by the entrants. The tyres were unlucky, insomuch as they developed in each oase the same manufacturing flaw which prov- ed to be their undoing. The Club has issued the following particulars provision- ally -.—The four tyres had an aggregate mileage of 18,122 miles, made up of 2836, 38-36, 5718, and 5732 for each of the four respective tyres. On examination after the trial, it was found that, with the ex- ception of the one tyre which had actu- ally burst (in the vicinity of the internal rib) and tho two to which similar trouble appeared to be developing, and of some chafing at the beads, the tyres were in good condition, there being no sign of creeping either between the tube and the deflector or between the deflector and the outer cover, nor was there any sign of hoa.t or internal attrition. There were no punctures. The Rapson Automobile Pat- ents, Ltd., have shown their belief in their tyre by immediately entering for another similar t eft.

MOTOR NOTES. I BRITISH ENTERPRISE IN I EXCEI^SIS. (By Our -Ifutgeg Correspondent.) Ever since the beginning of the late war when the turning of every British motor factory into an ammunition fac- tory gave rise to misgivings as to the future of the British industry, I have repeatedly in this column advocated the policy of copying American methods as the only possible salvation for the British Motor Trade. It is, therefore, with a sense of personal satisfaction that 1 can now write of an immediate realisation of what then appeared to be a remote possi- bility, hardly a probability. To the genius of Mr H. J. Whitcomb, of the Motor Union Insurance Co., this wonderful advance is primarily due..Al- though still a comparatively young man, Mr Whitcomb has achieved a distinction in the world of motoring such as no other man has done. As the saviour of Tho Motor Club, re-organised under the name of tlio Road Club, and as the founder of the £2,000,000 British Motor Trading Corporation, he has already made a name for himself apart from his successful man- agement of the Motor Union Insurance Co. To this must now be added the for- mation of a six million sterling corpora- tion, with the capital fully assured, which marks the first practical attempt to place the British Motor Industry on a basis to compete on even terms with foreign competition. At a press luncheon at the Savoy Hotel last week, Mr Whitcomb explained in de- tail the pia-as of a six million corporation which is to tackle the production of motor cars on a scale to meet any and every possible: competition. To ay that a hun- dred pressmen, who are usually bored to death with post prandial oratory, -listened for an hour with the keenest attention to his speech, is to say that it was well worth listening to. Mr Reginald McKenna, ex-Chancellor of the Excheq- uer, who was among the audience, must have -been reminded of many less success- ful effors from front bench speakers m the way of a clear and concise exposi- ion of what amounted to a national, policy. The keynote of Mr Whitcomb' s speech was epitomisod in one phrase, the pluck to achieve." And as emphasising both the courage and prospect of achieve- ment, his remarks left no room for doubt. "This amalgamation," he said, "is a na- tional undertaking in its incidence. It is the first really effective effort to place the British motor manufacturing industry on a scale of production comparable with the immense activity of the United States. It is based on the main principles which have been proved essential—and successful—in similar undertaktngs in that country. If one lays out a pro- gramme to produce, say, 100,000 cars per annum, it is essential to control every species of supply-no matter how in- dividually insigruncant-required to com- plete the output. It is, for example, use- less to produce so many cars minus radiators, magnetos, lighting sets of self- starters. Delay in the delivery of any one of such units means largely increased costs and also militates against output. "Here, then, is tho real secret of this combination. We are assured of our steel, our aluminium and other raw materials. Wo are assured of our castings, our drop forgings and our stampings. Wo have and are providing the jilant for machining the prime pro- duct into the finished component parts. We have safeguarded our radiator sup- ply, our body supply, our supply of elec- tric equipment and, above all, wo havo the finance assured for maintaining all these elements upon a solid basis of con- tinuity in production. "We have standardised our designs, and it now only remains for us to com. Inence mass production. Thus we shall start with a completion of only 50 cars per week in January and increase the number gradually until by July, 1920, we expect to complete 300 per week, and by December, 1920, 600 per week, and rise therefrom by stages until we are able to complete 2000 per week by July, 1923. We are centralising our policy, standard- ising our designs, but decentralising our factories. Our programme does not in- clude the high-priced vehicles, but the car for thtJ multitude. Fifty thousand of one type (the small car), 25,000 of the medium car, and 25,000 of the commcr- cial vehicle, that is to say, three types only. All the units for these will be produced in special shops. One shop for one type, and so on." Naturally the labour question cuts an important figure in a scheme of such magnitude, and on this subject Mr Whitcomb expressed himself in a manner, which many statesmen might envy. After explaining the advantages of the policy and methods he proposed to adopt, ho continued: "It is by these methods that America can produce cheaply whilst pay- ing higher wages than wo pay here. It is a fallacy to blame Labour and the smallness of our home market as the cause of high prices. It is our organisa- tion and our scope which has been wrong. ,We have hitherto failed to realise the vastness of our markets, failed in our imagination and our Pluck to Achieve. We must remember that we are an empire and not merely a country, that our markets are t £ ho world and not only these islands. Let us take courage in both hands and put all our energies and wealth to use, let us take Labour into partner- ship to achieve this end. The psychology of the worker is rarely understood. Directly the worker feels that he is an integral part of a successful and progres sive work, his whole attitude changes. He taJcos a pride in achievement, he feels the success of the enterprise is his, and it is on this feeling that he increases his ratio of productivity. I speak plainly upon the subject because I know my success in life has been, and is, due to tho wonderful esprit do corps of those who have worked with me and for me. From the top to the bottom there has been always but one thought, "success for our enterprise.' It is a fallacy to think that the worker does not caro about his em- ployer's interest. We consider the worker is entitled to his full wage with- out deduction for benevolent or recrea- tion schemes. Our provision has, there. fore, taken the form of the issue of 500,000 fully paid ordinary shares, to be held by trustees on behalf of the employees as a whole, for the purpose of a bene. væellt fund for the employees and their dependants. The names of such concerns as Had- fields of Sheffield, Harper Bean of Birm- ingham, Vulcan and Swift of the motor manufacturing world, Harvey Frost and others, will perhaps convey what this new combination reaily means. As the pioneer of the great motoring industries which must arise if the British trade is to pre- serve not only its empire trade, but even hold its own in the home market, Che Harper Beans, Ltd., will be. welcomed by every well-wisher of the British industrv. CONTROLLING CONSUMPTION OF I FUEL. In the way of novelties there is one devico which deserves more than passing mention. I refer to the Dyer Atomiser, an ingenious and original device for con- trolling the lonumtpioIl of fuel and at tho same time adding to its efficiency. There have been various devices claim- ing to lower petrol consumption, but the Dyer Atomiser is the first with a deflnite and unqualified guarantee. Furthermore, it claims to accomplish this without loss of power. Briefly, the system is based on the fact that carburettors, however carefully tuned, arc not capable of com- pletely gasifying motor fuel, especially the heavier grades. With the Atomiser heat is supplied by means of the exhaust gases, and by means of an air valve attached a perfect mixture is automatic- ally gven to al positions of the throttle. A further saving is accomplished by the fact that the cheaper, heavier grades are richer in heat unites, and therefore by this system actually produce better re- sults. Capt. Dyer during the war placed his invention at the disposal of the Gov- ernment, and after a scries of extensive tests by the somewhat sceptical authorities it was adopted for use in the R F.C. A test carried out on a standard 4- seatcr car which had seen considerable service was made twice over a distance of 24 mile?, one without the atomiser and the second trip with—all other ad- justments being the same on both occa- sions. A further tost was carried out on Golders Hill to show the effect of the atomiser on hill climbing. The results sneak for themselves. With atomiser fitted, 1lI,p.g. 33.4; without, m.p.g., 22.6. An improvement of 70 per cent. This difference was even more noticeable in tho hill test. The car was slowed down to 4 in.p-h. on the steejwst. parts ot Ihe hill 011 top gear, and instantly acce.crated without any difficulty. As I was present and took part in both these tests, L make no apologies foi- I-clatiiig my persona! ex- periences. I J. P. II. I

I LET HAND STEERING. Major Hall, having aik-ed tile Home Secretary whether he is aware that motor cars fitted with near-side steering are now being imported into this country, and whether, in view of the danger to the public invol ved in this change, he will prohibit the use of any cars so fitted, other than those already imported, Siv Rhy" s Williams wrote, last week, in re- ply: At present there arc no statutory regulations which would enable the Mini- ster to control the position of steering appliances on motor cars, but he is ap- pointing an expert advisory committee, to which this. among other questions, will be referred.

I TO KEEP WIND SCREEN CLEAR. Messrs Parker, Turnbull and Co., of 35, Jcwrv-strcet, London, E.C. 3, have en- tered for an R.A.C. trial of what they call their "clear vision wind screen cloth," whidh, it is claimed, if rubbed on a wet wind screen, will ensure clear vision under any conditions of wet or snow. The test will be held on the first available oppor- tnnity-the weather conditions at this time of the year are not likely to cause much delay—and the results will be pub- lished.

I THE BENZOLE TRIAL. I The 10,000 miles' trial of benzoic mann- factured by the National Benzole Associa- t.ion is proceeding well, and has now com- pleted 6216 miles. The fuel consumption during this period has been wonderfully steady, varying but a point or two from 18 miles to the gallon. The weight of the car as run on the road is approximately two-and-a-half tons. Embodied with this trial of benzole is a test of Messrs C. C. Wakefield's lubricating oil.

DEGORY NO-JET CAn BCll- ATOR. The Royal Automobile Club have issued a certificate dealing with the results of the tests of a new carburettor. This carbur- ettor, which is known as the "degory no- jet ciarburator, ha.s one or two points of special interest. The trial wa.s held in two parts, the first day being with petrol, and the second day with benzole. In each case the same oar was used, a 1916 14-h.p. Humber. The consumption of 265 miles per gallon on petrol, and nearly 29 miles per gallon on benzole, can be considered very good, especially in view of the fact that the car weighed nearly a ton and thr ee quarters.
