In Matter of Lubrication.
with a plain bearing tractor 1t is
necessary to inspect the bearings at
least once and sometimes two OF three
times daily 70 make sure that the parts
are properly fabricated. while with the
Hyatt bearing, one charging with lubri-
cant, owing TO the hollow rollers. will
last almost indefinitely. Where the Hy-
att bearings are mounted In a transmits
sion case, they obtain sufficient lubrica-
ton from the oil used for lubricating the
gears. For independently mounted
boxes or wheel hubs where the Hyatt
bearing is used, It is only necessary to
replenish the supply of lubricant as II
leaks out from the bearings. The owner
of a tractor equipped with Hyatt bear
ings starts his days work as soon as
his motor turns over and Is not re-
quarter Of an hour looking after the
bearings before he can begin work.
Tractors equipped with Hyatt bear
ings are designed to take utmost advan-
tage Of high grade materials. and are
much lighter. more compact and more
efficient than a tractor having plain
bearings throughout. Reduction in
weight minimizes the rolling resistance
of the machine, saving unnecessary fuel
consumption in propeiling the tractor.
Good Material IL Used.
While It is true that In order to OBJ
tain the highest possible efficiency from
the use of Hyatt bearings the entire de-
sign OF the tractor must be built up on
the basis Of a small amount OF good ma
terial rather than large amount OF
cheap material. yet it is possible to apply
Hyatt bearings in tractors having the
ordinary proportion as designed for plaiu
bearings. And by thus using the spiral
flexible roller bearings a marked increase
in efficiency is obtained through the
elimination Of friction"

TRIP GIzZARO,' THE NEW PIzEN

North Carolina's drastic pro- hibition laws are being threaten ed seriously by the rew "pizen" invented by the sons of Hyde county. It is a substitute for corn liquor called Meal Beer" or Rip Gizzard." and is highly intoxicating. It is said to have the farfamed flicker which makes a jack-rabbit spit in a bulldogs eye, looking like a dose of soothing-syrup. The recipe calls for a peck of meal, 10 lbs. of sugar add two or three pounds If dried apples. Five gallons of water are added, and the con- coction is set back of the stove or in the sun to ferment. In a few days 1t has worked, and is then drawn off ready for the consumer. Negroes are making great quantities of Rip Gizzard" and one of them, regarded as an expert, offers the following method: One gallon of meal to two gallons of water. Put on the stove and boil. As soon as the mixture boils, add two lbs.
 of sugar. Pour into stone crock and let stand a week, by which time it will ferment. Add two pounds of sugar and strain off. This recipe doesn't require apples. Other makers use dried peaches instead of apples, and others use molasses. The Anti Saloon league and ". c. T. U. of North Carolina are making
