Last spring when we boys in our
school got letters asking us to join the
pig f~attening contest, we were en-
couraged by our teachers to join and
try to win the prizes. | had a choice
of a litter of good early pigs and Sc
lected a thin but large and heavy
boned male pig weighing e~ighty-four
pounds on the first of June. | made a
small pen on the north side of our hog
house and let him run in the pen and
in one part of the building.
"On June l l started the feeding. I
gave him one gallon of milk and three
pounds of ground barley and corn at
each feeding, which was, at morning
and night. l kept up this same feed
for two weeks and then started to give
him three and one-half pounds OF
ground feed and the same measure of
milk. At all times | kept water for
him in a separate trough. Fol- a while
| did not clean out his pen, but one
night it rained and blew into his pen
through the door. In the morning he
was nearly drowned out, so | cleaned
and bedded the pen.
ION July l l weighed the pig and
found hat he had gained about forty
pounds. BY this time he was begin
ming to get filled u and quite accus-
toned t. corn and barley, so | changed
the feed again. gave him four pounds
of pure ground corr and one and one-
half gallons of milk, and continued
this feed until the 10Th of July. At
that time | started to feed him three
times a day, and gave him three
pounds of corn at each meal.
ION August 2 l weighed my pig
again. This time he weighed two
hundred fifteen pounds. By this time
| had become too busy to bother with
MIN at noon so fed him five pounds
of corn and about two gallons of milk
each morning and night. I kept up
feed until about a week before the
contest ended, and then began to feed
him all that he would eat, which was
seven pounds at a meal, or fourteen
pounds per day.
Frequently l gave him one or two
bundles of oats which served as feed
and bedding. During the last month
| have been letting him go out for
grass and exercise.
This evening after my pig was fed
all that he cared for | weighed him.
He weighs two hundred eighty,four
One-half pounds"

What is the difference between the so
called bluestone battery and the ordi-
nary accumulator2 Do they take the
same eIectroIyte, and are they charged
the Same way?
The ordinary accumulation IS a stor-
age battery or secondary battery using
lead plates and q solution Of sulphurlc
acid In water. The bluestone Is a pri-
mary battery. and Instead Of lead plates
q copper plate forms the positive and
zinc the negative. The copper plate IS
immersed In n solution of copper sui
phate or blue vitriol and the zinc in Il
solution OF zinc sulphate or sulphuric
acid. The vessel containing the cop
per sulphate and the copper strip Is
placed into n porous jar containing the
zinc in the acid. The method Of char.
ing a primary battery consists in Civ
Ing 1t n cleaning. freeing the plates Of
all deposit ana adding new solution,
while In the storage battery an electric
current is used for charging.

We know Of no substance which will

There 10 a dull knock in my motor
which is more noticeable when the
spark is advanced. The motor has a
new set of cylinders, new pistons, new
connecting rods, and new bearings in the
crank shaft and cam shaft. All bear
inss were fitted in good shape. II has
been timed both faster and slower, but
with no change, and the oil level does
not seem to change il. What is the
mstter2
Even though the ignition is In proper
shape, improper valve adjustment
might cause p~reignition and conse-
quent knocking. Look over the valve
clearances and see that the gaps are
not too wide nor too close and that the
limits at all tappets are about the same.
See that no valve sticks. When the
bearings were fitted were precautions
taken TO see that no end play existed?
Even though the crank shaft and rod
bearings have been properly scraped in,
slight end play may exist. This would
cause the whole shaft to move back
ward and forward slightly and cause
n dull knocking. See that the motor
supports are' in good shape. You may
have fitted a piston so that too much
clearance exists between 1t and the
cylinder.

these distances slightly, say to .o0l at

caused by the mixture being too rich
or too lean, In either case a fame re-
sulting which sticks TO the cylinder
wall. This fame remains In the cylin-
der until the intake valve opens, and
then the incoming gas In the cylinder,
intake header, etc, explodes. IL you
will readjust the carburetor no doubt
b trouble Will cease. 1t might be
well ais TO recheck the valve timing
and see that the valves are seating
properly. See that the ignition wires
are connected properly. Preignition
viii always cause knocking, and no
doubt the knocking you hear Is caused
by the charge igniting at the wrong
time. Do not advance the spark too
much when the motor Is called upon
to carry the extra load. IL the engine
knocks after the carburetor Is adjust
ed properly 1t may be caused by some
loose internal part or the ignition being
poorly timed.

The readings Of the scales under the
