It is perfectly possible today for a great whole
sale automobile to carry vast stock Of
automobile engines chassis and parts, with many
all of the following mechanical and structural feat
ures, viz:
1-Engine SO constructed that you cannot get at
the crankshaft bearings to take up the wear with
out taking off the whole bottom of the crank case
else tearing down the whole motor, from the top.
2-No power driven oil pump for the motor, lub-
rication of the engine being accomplished by plain
"slosh feed" politely referred to "The Splash Sys
EN-" or vacuum Feed Splash System" etc, either of
which burns up twice the lubricating OIL rapid
carbonzng of the interior of the motor which means
loss of power overheating and ultimately having to
pay excessive repair bills and overhauling charges
3-No water circulating pump for keeping the
motor cool, simply radiator depending for crcula-
ton on the principle that "heat ascends, cold de-
scends" system politely referred to as "the ther-
mosyphsn system" which allows an engine to over
heat long, hard pull, loosening up the bearings
and connections
IA gear-box or transmission case with plain
bearings like the axle of wheebarrow or else with
non-adjustable ball bearings neither of which has
any provision for adjusting and taking up the wear
and lost motion from the outside There is no bear
ing in the world which will not develop "wear" and
"lost motion" with months and months of hard work"
5-A driving pinion too small for its work. keyed
on to the drive shaft instead of made part of the
shaft. A Beve Drive Pinion with only one roller
bearing instead of two. A bevel drive pinion and
bevel driven gear with no outside adjustment of
bearings and pnion, that take up the wear and
lost motion, the must be sent to a repair shop
and the whole axle torn down to get at the
working parts, which ultimately means expensive re-
pair bills and exasperating delays.

Something About the Importance. Of
Humus in Soils

BY "A. d. Campbell, Manager Wiscon-
sin Advancement Association.
The farmers of Wisconsin need
only to make a trip through the
drought stricken portion of the Mid
die West to be able to fully appre-
ciate the value of humus to the soil
and crops in times of drought This
does not mean that droughts are nee
essary to bring out the value of hui
mus. The fact is that ample humus
is q great benefit to crops at all
times, for reasons that | have stat
ed many times in communications to
the press, but it is in times of mini
mum moisture that it's benefits are
most apparent to the observer.
The writer had occasion to cross
Missouri and portion of Illinois on
August. 5. From Mexico, Mo-, to
Springfield, ILL.,, distance of about
two hundred miles, drought prevails
that has left scarcely particle of
the lower leaves of the corn. 1t is
such drought as Wisconsin has new
er seen.
The point I wish most to make is
the fact that there is in this stretch
| of country a great difference in the
crop Of farms possessing a reason
able amount of humus and those
where no practice has ben made of
turning organic matter. But the diff
ficulty there is in making the clov-
ers grow-this being the principal
source of humus aside from the barn
yard manures. In Wisconsin we have
no trouble of this kind, and our far
mers should be awake to the i'm
portance and value of this fact.
Again let me say that drought is
not necessary to the value of humus
and that it is of great value at all
times. Sow clover Cor alfalfa) and
pillow it under often, and you will
have soil conditions that will pro-
duce maximum crops in ordinary sea.
sons and improved crops in dry sea
sons. Sow some clover with all crops,
pasture it, and plow under the resi-.
due-you will get your money back
in pasturage and again in better
crops.
