.BORDERLAND BEST,
SAYS MIDLAND MAN
Drove to Pacific Over It, Re
turning Another Route,
Making 5000 Miles.

Midland, Texas. Oct 25.-The recent
pathfinding trips of W. o. L West
gard and ]. l. Ferguson over the BOr-
derland and All Southern highways
and over the Central route through Colo
RADIO. Utah and Nevada have aroused
interest and enthusiasm among the peO-
pie along these routes IS well as
among the touring public who are
anxious for the development of better
through routes. While many eXper-
fenced drivers have been over both
routes, a comparatively small proper
ton of the average motor driving pub
lie has driven over them for the en-
tire distance, many people shipping
their cars over the worst places.
The recent trip of a Midland, Texas,
auto owner, J. NJ. JemisOn, over the
worst of both of these routes for over
5000 miles in a small DetrOiter with
practically no breakdOwns and no rail
shipments of his car, is therefore
worthy of note.

Motoring Department, The Herald
The other day while riding with
friend in his automobile we stopped
at a place for lunch. In trying to
start the motor the carburetOr caught
fire, and the whole machine was dam
aged considerably. I am thinking o.
getting a car myself and being in
terested would like to know what was
the cause of this fire Was it because
the parts were old or is this apt to
happen to new car?-Jean Van Wag-
Omen
, Backfiring in the carburetor is
caused by too lean a mixture or leaky
inlet valves. Oftentimes when the
motor is cold it will backfire when
first started. Your friend probably
flooded the carburetor too much, al
lowing a large quantity of the gaso-
line to flow over and saturate the sur
rounding parts. Then when the back
fire took place there was trouble.
If the drip pan and other parts were
clean this probably would have burned
itself out very quickly. Your friend
should have turned off the gasoline in
the tank in order to stop the flow OF
gasoline If a motor is running and
the carburetor takes fire, it is best to
keep the engine running in order to
draw the flames into the carburetor
as much as possible Then, by shut
ting off the gasoline at the tank the
fire has not much fuel. The drip pan
and motor parts should be kept as
clean as possible in order to prevent
a fire from gaining Roadway.
