AGAINST EARLY MODELS
Stearns Official Tells How An
nounCement MAY Be Hardship.
BY ROY +. YORK.
1PrasidanA nf the e q Stear


Vice. President Of the r. 3. Stearns Co.
The practice of bringing out new yearly
models so many months I'm advance Of the
schedule calendar year has been carried to
such an extent during the last few seasons
that II is beginning to attract unfavorable
comment among automobile owners, as well
as those I'm the trade.
For one thing. the announcement OF a
1912 model thus early in 1911 works an un-
called for hardship upon the owner, for IT
depreciates has car in value fully ~ per
cent Isn't this rather hard on the man
who purchased a 1911 car In February or
March of the current year?
The +. r. Stearns Company. however, is
i'm a peculiarly fortunate position. so far
as new models are concerned. for it has
been our policy for the last several years
10 make no yearly announcements. but In
stead TO build several series Of cars every
year. In this way We are able TO give
owners the benefit Of whatever improve
ments our engineers work out, and the
purchaser OF a Stearns car Is always as
sured of being up to the minute in every
respect.
For instance, in the new spring series we
have Incorporated several new improve
ments. but have not purposey altered the
external appearance of the car simply for
the purpose OF calling II 1912 model.

other. otherwise the rear axle Will not ne

In lengthening or shortening the radius
rods i'm the chain adjustment care must
be taken to line up accurately the rear
axle. In other words, the rear axle mu-t
re parallel TO tho countershaft. even
though one chain may be more loose than
the other. If this is not done the rear
wheels will be constantly travelling side
WAYS The car Will also be difficult to Keer
on the road. and the drive chain and
sprockets will wear excessively.
As for fabrication, the chains should he

collect grit and dirt. which produces wear,
but a lubricant must reach the inner bear
ings Of the chain. The effect of the oil
reaching and lubricating the irnermost AMI
vital parts of the chain more than offsets
the external wear due TO dust, etc. If tha
driver has sufficient time the chains should
be taken off and washed In kerosene until
clean. and then hung up to dry. After this
they should be scaled in warm solution
Of beef talow and graphite.
When the solution OF tallow ana
graphite is warm II will penetrate to the
innermost bearings This treatment of the
chain IS very good in that all the bear
ings. after being cleaned, receive a coating
OF dust proof lubricant. However, without
taking off the chains one can give same
reasonable attention with a daily BATH "f

from the top IN order to permit the grease
TO soak in and lubricatc the innermost

six MILES ON KEROSENE
Palmer Singer Car Travels on
Very Ordinary Fuel.

In conjunction with run from Ellens-
hundred miles, through a sea of mud. over
roads wellnigh impossible, comes par
ticular tale OF hardships and numerous In
cidents. TO quote Mr.. Cover, the Tacoma
representative of the Palmer Singer. the
story runs as follows:
1T was during the heart breaking run
across the interior OF Washington from FL
Iensburg TO Spokane which raised the cries
OF What do you think Of that?' from con-
temporary Spokane automobile men that
this incident happened. The car carrying
Mr. Cover. Mr.. Bristo and Frank Jacobs
ran out of gasolene 1T point Of the Span
AWAY road, six miles south of blacksmith
shop which has proved a welcome haven
20 many tourists on the prairie. II was ,
o'clock. and all the occupants Of tho car
had made dinner engagements in the city
that could not be broken. Having been in
the same predicament before. Mr.. Cover
knew that the surest and quickest way TO
the car and reach the nearest supply I'm the
smallest possible amount Of time. SO he
subsidized a farmer to hitch up and drive
him 10 the little blacksmith shop. lie
knew he could get gasolene there.
Meantime the two other men got their
heads together and determined to show
Cover.
Near where they were detained was a
farmhouse presided over by an austere
matron, who had returned that afternoon
from shopping expedition in town. Among
her purchases was a three-gallon can Of
coal oil. This the pair purchased after the
uatron had driven sharp bargain with
them. There must have been a wee straining
of real gasolene in the Palmer-Singer tank
At any rate, after gallon or 80 OF the oil
had been poured in they gave the motor
the wink and were rewarded by ready
response. BY keeping the engine good and
hot thev kept the coal oil combusting and
caught up with Cover in the one-horse
chaise after he had gone less than mile"
