MILOURIi ELECTRIC CUTS SNOW DRIFTS IN SEVERE TESTS

Persons living on Main street were amazed a week ago last' Wednesday morning when they arose and gazed across a vast expanse of deep snow to see a light electric tearing down the street, throwing the snow tight and left and breaking the way for many heavier cars which were to follow. The car was a Milburn light electric and it was occupied by President E. M. Anderson, and H. R. Marlatt, salesman of , the Richmond Electric company, 19 SouU Seventh street. These men were out bright and early to demonstrate the power of the Milburn electric and its ability to travel In all sorts of weather. The demonstration was continued throughout the day and the performance was such that sales resulted. The snow test was the last of a long series conducted by the Richmond Electric company to prove that the Milburn electric, although almost a ton lighter than the average electric.

is yet able to conquer all road con-, ditions. The car first was tested on

hills around Richmond, then in deep sand, later in mud, and in each case its performance was beyond criticism. The dealers were not the only persons who tested Milburn cars in Wednesday's snow, however, for several owners were out with their cars, and many were so enthusiastic over the car's performance that they telephoned the dealers to tell them about pulling out of drifts and other equally

astonishing accomplishments. Richmond owners have reported that they

are getting seventy miles to the charge easily with the Milburn, and some report that they have traveled in excess

of seventy-eight miles without recharging the batteries.
