GIVES SIMPLE PLAN
FOR MAKING FLOAT
Expert Repair Man Tells How
to Fit the GasoIene Tank
With an Indicator.

Every driver feels the need of a float
for showing the height of the gasolene
in the tank of his automobile, though
only small percentage OF cars are SO
fitted.
A simple method of fitting a float to
any tank without cutting the tank open.
pair man, Is this:
The ordinary filling cap is removed,
and centrally in 1t Is made a hole.
Through this hole Is passed a nipple,
which is soldered In place. The nipple
Is formed with shoulder providing
suitable holding surface for the solder
In spite of the usual thinness of the
filling cap. Through this nipple Is
passed q wire attached to a float. Re
placing the filling cap, the float will
rise, will indicate how much fuel there
is in the tank.
Generally speaking. II is advisable to
make the float to withdraw from the
tank with the filling cap. For this pur-
pose, the end of the wire can be rivet-
ed over, or provided with a ball. On the
top Of the nipple. Is screwed a cap,
which normally keeps the float down.
float will rise. or course. the float Is
made sufficiently small to pass through
the ordinary filling opening, and care
must be taken not to damage the float
when the cap Is removed. In making
float suitable for the purpose, 1t Is
advisable to test its buoyancy in gaso-
lene after the wire has been fixed.
float which is sufficiently buoyant
in water is, nothing like SO buoyant in
gasolene. and much time can be saved
by first testing this point.

ONE PLANT MAKES
100000 CARS A YEAR
Overland Output, Placed End to
End, Would Cover About
Ninety-three Miles.

An annual production of 1000 motor
cars, when mentioned in figures. does
not mean a great deal to those not of
an analytical mind. But when reduced
TO the number of miles these cars will
cover. the number of freight cars which
would be necessary to transport them
in a single train, were this possible, or
the number of dollars of investment
such a production representa-. better
idea of the magnitude of the industry
can be gained by everyone.
Figures recently compiled by the
Willys-Overland Company, whose an
nual output Is 1900 cars, are interest
ing. Should all the Overland cars pro-
Guced at the Overland plant for the
season. each averaging l8 inches over
all, be placed end to end, as closely
as they could stand. the line would
cover more than ninety-three miles of
roadway, or more than the distance
from Toledo to Detroit "-r-'
Should the cars be distributed over \
straight and level road, each In sight
of the one following, or one mile apart.
the line would reach forty thousand
miles, or one and three-fifths times
around tie world. A train Of 50-foor
automobile freight cars sufficient to
more than 126 miles or further than
from Toledo to Cleveland.
The total value OF the 1913 output Of
the Toledo factory is more than
$40. 900. 900. or so great that there are few
lnilionaires in America today who
could purchase all the cars and pay
cash.

PREDICTS BIG USE
FOR MOTORCYCLES
VIII Be Million in the United
States Within a Period
Of Five Years.
Ry HARRY WARD.

Speaking before the National Capital
Motorcycle Club last night J. Leo Sauer
OF the Federation of American Motor
cyclists, predicted there would be a
million motorcycles in the United
states in less than five years. To sup
port his prediction he referred to the
TACT that the production of 1912, which
was about 5000 machines. would be
more than doubled in 1918. Not less than
IL. 600 high-grade two-wheelers will be
marketed this year, bringing the total
in use by next fall up to approximately
10000 At that rate of increase, Mr..
Sauer declared, the attainment of a
seven-figure total was only a matter of
a few years.
Given hard roads, comparatively
dustless. and ordinary conservatism on
the part of riders, motorcycling is truly
n royal sport" said Mr.. Sauer. 1T ap-
peals to the tourist, the health-seeker
and the business man. The field of
motorcyclinS is practically unlimited
courage the-use of motorcycles. to fight
the interests that are trying to prohibit
racing and TO allay the pretudices of
the general public against motor
cyclists"
Mr.. Sauer is making q coast-to-coast
trip in the interest of the Federation
of American Motorcyclists. His tour
started in Baltimore Thursday and dur
ing the next two months he will visit
all the leading cities of the country.

PNEUMATIC TIRES
LACK SUBSTITUTE
No Practical Creation Has Yet
Been Developed to Supplant
Rubber and Air.

Many experts. thoroughly conyersant
with every detail of the situation, main-
tain that the automobile never will rest
satisfactorily on any other footing than
the pneumatic tire. Others. perhaps
equally well informed, are not so sure
that this Is fact.
But of one thing we are all sure.
that up to the present time nothing
practical has been created to suppIant
such a highly resilient substance as
rubber in conjunction with compressed
air, in providing a foundation for the
motor car says ]. d. Anderson, gen.
eral sales manager Of the United States
Tire Company.
The duties of an automobile tire are
more exacting than the casual observer
may imagine" continued Mr.. Anderson.
Perhaps the first quality to be taken
into account is that of endurance. A
tire must be SO constructed and made
of such materials that it will Weld a
satisfactory mileage return on the cash
investment. This question of mileage
service is the one which appeals with
particular force to the car owner.
Other Tire Essentials.
Iio"S'ei, thcic are Otuef tiTe essen
tials which. while probably not SO cno-
spicuous by their presence, would be
decidedly conspicuous should they be
eliminated by the tire manufacturer"
''Resiliency is an important feature
of the pneumatic tire. This is the
quality that absorbs the shocks of the
road, furnishing easy riding not only
to passengers, but protecting the en-
gine and mechanism Of the car as WELL
Without resiliency a tire cannot per-
form it's most important functions and
the whole. structure of the motor car
suffers in consequence.
1T is in the lack of this element of
resiliency that most of the patented
for air and rubber fall
down. For easy riding and for afford
the car pneumatic tires. at least up to
the present time, stand supreme.
Tires Have Heavy Tasks.
The tires OF an automobile must
all the force and impact of
the engine in starting. driving. and
the car; they must carry
weight, resist wear. Withstand the heat
generated by friction with road sur
faces and the resistance of the brakes
In stopping the car. Furthermore, they
must be SO constructed as to permit of
quick removal and ready substitution.
"All of these qualities, pneumatic
tires, as they are made under our ad-
vanced methods of manufacture, pos
sess. The only argument against them
is that. they will puncture and they will
wear out. However. no substitute has
vet been offered which combines all Of
the advantages Of the penufnatic tire
with greater lasting qualities at less
cost"

Broken Spring Leaf
Is Easily Repaired

OF all automobile spring breakages 1t
is probable that fully nine out Of ten
involve only the top spring leaf with
the fracture occurring very close TO the
clip. on this account provision for
emergency repair is considerably less
complicated than 1t might be were the
manner of injury more various.
If there are kept in the tool box a
small emergency clip and a strip of steel
"a piece of an old broken spring Will
do very well for this-it becomes neces-
sary only to loosen and tighten few
nuts TO clamp everything together by
putting the piece Of steel over the break
in the top leaf setting the emergency
cia. . on the outside of the break
BY doing this the car can be continued
in daily hard service until the broken
spring can be replaced.

Strip Of Felt Stops
Squeaking Windshield

A squeak that is very annoying and
sometimes hard to locate Is that made
by the base of glass Windshield rub
bing on the dash. The cutting of the
base of a windshield so that II will
conform exactly to the shape Of the
dash Is often a difficult task. The re-
suit Is that instead of resting securely
all around 1t will bear only on the
high places. making tight fit impossf-
BILE and causing the squeak.
The remedy Is to remove the dash
and trim Off the high places or place
a strip Of felt between the Dashboard
and the dash. 1t is common practice
among filters of windshields to paste q
strip of felt to the Dashboard in all
cases, not only to prevent squeaking,
but to make a waterproof joint as well.

LIGHT CARS JUST AS

Even New York Persons Are
Finding the Small Vehicles
Handy to EIude Traffic.

Even in New York, where, according
TO popular belief. life comes near being

bile buyers are learning that size and
class are not interchangeable items"
remarked Washington automobile
dealer.
Light cars of popular price and mod
crate appetite'can be just as graceful In
outline. just as carefully built. and just
as comfortable as the Infinitely larger
and heavier annihilators of space. gaso-
lene. and tires.
I'm cases where smartness of han
ding and limited turning space are at
a premium, the light car enjoys a great
advantage In the hands of skilled
pilot IL darts in and out Of traffic as
torpedo boat maneuvers through fieet
of battleships.
More highly standardized than its
corpulent brother and with fewer nee
essary adjustments, the light car Is less
prone to become crippled and easier to
repair when accident happens. Women
find IL easier to drive light cars A
woman at the wheel Of a road locomo-
tive is an unusual sight: driving a light
car the woman pilot Is SO often met as
to arouse no especial comment.
