Farm Engine Troubles Due
to Cold Weather


Recent severe cold snaps have
caused Wisconsin farmers consider
able trouble in connection with
their gasolene engines, which can
be readily avoided, according to
Prof. C. A. Ocock, of the agricul-
tural engineering department of the
College of Agriculture of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, who is send
ing out suggestions on this subject
to farmers.
In extremely cold weather batter
les should be kept in a warm place
and attached to the engine when
needed. Cylinders should be
warmed with a small torch made of
burlap wound round long bolt and
soaked in kerosene, the heat from
which can be drawn into the cylin-
der by turning tie fly wheels after
the spark plug has been removed.
