The Amigo Journal has frequently
and explicitly called attention to the
! practice of some pathmasters of fix
ing road by leaving the sod in th,.

spoils the road and takes several
years before it is worn down enough
to travel over. Its practice must
now cease as there is law on the
statute books providing q fine for ang
roadbuilder who does it. 1t would
be well for those effected to maxi.
themselves familiar with it. as ther
may at any time be hailed into court
and fined anywhere from $40 to slOo

MANY FRANKLINs IN TOW"
Dealers in If0 Towns Make 100
Mile Run 20 Test Cooling.

To travel 100 miles on low gear was
accomplished by 116 Franklin six thirty
cars on September %. among them
prominently. Glenn a. Tisdaie, the local
agent IL was planned that all Franklin
dealers would make the demonstration
on this date regardless OF weather or road
conditions, and In every case they were
TO pick out the route which would fur
nish the most severe test to the engine
Two official observers were reuulrcd--one
from the automobile club and one from
the press--and the car was to travel on
low gear all the time. 1t was a nonstop
motor test. and the real test of course
came on the cooling system and on the
motor.
Franklin dealers responded to tho re-
quest for this national denomination in
every case except where some had not
been able 90 get their demonstrators as
yet.
1t is not that 100 miles on low gear is
thing that an automobile owner at
tempts every day or even once n year
but 100 miles on low gear Is q demon
stratlon 30 severe that II might be called
the maximum test to which motor can
be subjected. That ts why the demon
stration was made In this manner, and Il
Is contended that It showed that Franklin
direct cooling not only cools successfully.
but II coois under the most severe work
n motor can get.
In the cooling system using water the
water cools the motor ana then air cools
the water. Air cooling or direct cooling
has been in use from the time automobiles
we're first made. and has developed gradu-
ally by new inventions and improvements.
II is said for II that IL requires less
attention. for there Ia no radiator to Ill,
no pumps 20 look after. no fan to take
care OF.
