The extraordinary use of automo-
biles and other motor cars in the
United States has created an extraord-
mary demand for gasoline, followed by
an extraordinary advance in the price
Gasoline now sells for 60 per cent,
more than it did last year. Noting this
advance, The Scientific American
makes the suggestion that ready rem
edy is in the hands of motor manufac-
turers through adoption of their car
bureters to the use of other and cheap
err substitute fuels. 1t says:
"Benfiol, alcohol and kerosene have
been tried and found wanting-in the
carbureters used for gasoline engines.
The fault was not with the fuels, but
with the carbureting devices employ
ed Excepting for the apparent reluc-
lance of manufacturers of motor cars
to provide the small extra equipment
necessary to attain this desirable end,
there is no reason whatsoever why
kerosene or bentiol should not make
highly satisfactory fuels for the auto
mobile motor. Nearly every gasoline

CHEAPER FUEL MAY BE FOUND
FOR OWNERS OF AUI OMOBILES

tank has an emergency tank built in.
Why could not this tank be used as
a starting tank, and the main COM
parment be filled with kerosene? The
carbureter adjustment for kerosene is
slight, mechanical air valve could
be attached 50 as to supply the mix
ture with more oxygen than is neces-
sary for running with gasoline, The
carbureter could be water acketed or
otherwise warmed so to facilitate gas
flying of the fuel, as is done in many
cases even now"
The above hint should not be thrown
away upon the makers of motors
They have gone to the limit in mat
tiers of style, haberdashery and nickel
plating. 1t is time more attention
should be paid to questions of upkeep
and stability Customers are on the
lookout for machines that are stayers
as well as goers. To get motors in
which lowest-priced fuel could be
used, or in case of necessity, would be
a great disideratum. The first makers
who shall put such motors on the mar
ket are s to reap a due reward.

Preparedness is One Way to

London, Eng, Nov. 20.-Determin-
ed effort is being made to induce the
British government to purchase two
dreadnaughts now building at Barrow
on-Tyne for Turkey. The question Of
payment for these ships is now prob
lematical and as the work is sus-
pended upon them, the builders would
probably dispose of them to the first
buyer. Should this buyer be con-
tinental government the balance of
power might be seriously altered at a
moment when this is least desired.
The British war office has never
been SO busy as at present since the
struggle with the Beers. Officials are
working till late at night. All leaves
have been cancelled. Woolwich and
Enfield are working at high pressure
to meet the demands upon the arse
nails By the end of next week 100000
men will be ready, with all munitions
of war, to be despatched at moments
notice to any scene of action.

week work is being hurried forward
All ships in dry dock are being refit-
ted and several battleships have left
with secret orders for unknown desti =

to be fully prepared to deal with any
emergencies which may arise. The les

by the wreckage and dashed to the
ground. He died an hour later.
Thompson was the first Colorado
man to lose his life in fall from

ship in Weld county. Since then
Thompson has made a long list OF
successful flights.
