What advantages are gained by fit
ting three piston rings to the groove
instead of one?
The advantages claimed for special
piston rings are that they hold compress
sion better, prevent oil from entering
the compression chamber more effec-
lively and in some cases reduce the
wear on the cylinder walls

is it good idea to use castor oil as
lubricant for motors?
Castor oil is used exclusively in high
speed motors. such as racing car en-
gines anu aeroplane motors. but there
are many disadvantages which make it
unsuited for ordinary types. There is
doubt as to it's ever being used by mo-
toriSts in general Castor oil is veg
etable product and when used in Ordi-
nary slow speed motors will gum rapid
ly. The rate Of oxidation is too great
In fact, discussion regarding the va
riOuS compOnentS of castor oil shows
Immediately its unsuitability for Ordi-
nary gas engines. Racing cars and
aeroplanes use it because of its high
viScosity. which is necessary when the
piston to cylinder clearance is great, rs
it is in racing car engines. The chances
of cumming and oxidation i'll high
speed motors is much less than in the
slow running motors, AMI, further.
these conditions usually begin after the
motor has stopped. Racing motors are
stopped only after a race. and then the
driver cares little whether the cylin-
ders gum or not, for they are cleaned
thoroughly before the next race. In
ordinary practice the starting and stop
ping. especially in cold weather. would
seal the piStOns. The OdOr of burning
castor oil is another objection. and the
price of chemically pure castor oil is
prohibitive.

My car does not get a continual sup
ply of oil. The oil will flow through the
oil sight feed for awhile and then stop.
If the engine is stopped the oil will
flow again, but not until then. The
pump is in good conditicn. The oil line
is clear, and there are no air leaks. Is
there any remedy for this?
From the description you give it Is
very difficult to state exactly what the
cause of your trouble is. 1t may be
from several causes. For instance, it
may be possible that the pipes leading
to the sight feed and motor are clog
ged. and it is suggested that you dis
connect all of these pipes and thor
Oughly clean them. The pump takes
oil from long tube-like strainer screw
ed in the bottom on the side of the
case. This often becomes covered with
dirt and lint. causing the pump to work
badly. 1t is always necessary to dis
connect the oil pump and take out this
strainer occasionally and remove all
dirt and sediment 1t would be a good
thing. also. to examine the pump and
see if the packing is worn out. If it
is it should be renewed. All the pipes
are direct lines. and if cleaned and
free from traps the only trouble can
be in the pump or strainer The rem
edy will therefore be to repair the
pump and clean out the strainer.

There is a peculiar grinding noise in
the transmission of my car? II is heard
only when running on high speed and
at rate of from about fifteen to TWEEN
ty-five miles per hour. Can you advise
me as to what is the trouble?
If the gears give a steady hum when
the car is operated in high there may
be nothing wrong with the gears.
steady hum from the rear axle is emit
ted by nearly all makes of cars. How
ever. if there are stresses at intervals
in the sound the gears may be out OF
round This is another way of saying
that either the gears are not running
true or the gears themselves are out
of shape Such condition may be
caused by improper initial bevel ad-
juStment, but more usually by tamper-
ing Herewith or by the gears being al
lowed to operate in oil containing small
particles of metal There may be one
or more teeth with high spots. 1t is
surprising what damage dirt can do
to rear axle gears. A small particle
Of dirt on one of the teeth may cause
the gears to give an unsteady sound
like that caused by gears which them
selves are running out Of alignment
The thrust bearings may be worn. 1t
IS advised that you have the gears re-
moved and trued up in the shop. for
it is almost impossible TO detect the
cause of an out of round when the
gears are in the casing. If you do not
wish to go to this trouble try clean
lubricant, and before placing it in
the case wash the case thoroughly and
give the gears a good cleaning. also

| have been told to put moth balls in
my gasoline to eliminate carbon de-
posts. Is there anything in moth balls
to injure the cylinders and spark plugs7
Since the substance is nothing more
than a product of heavy oils. there is
nothing in moth balls to iniure the mo-
tor. 1t is apparent there is mrch car
bon i'm the substance. and it appears
that instead of reducing the carbon de-
post it should increase it.

At night | have noticed spark from
the metal edging of the footboards of
my car. What causes this?
A battery wire may be touching some
metal part of the car. There is n
short circuit somewhere, and if you
will trace every circuit you no doubt
will find the break.

to reverse while the other goes ahead,
running on wet pavement with the
brakes applied?
The differential action will allow one
wheel 10 revolve clockwise, while the
other turns anti-clockwise but with
the brakes applied and holding well
neither wheel should turn. In the
case you mention the brakes evidently
were slipping and thus permitted the
wheels to turn.
In setting a motor for high speed
work what changes should be made in
the valve timing7
The most important and effective
change is to keep the intake valve
open for a longer period.
Kindly explain just how a backfire 10
caused and why this should happen
any more with a weak mixture than
when the mixture is rich. Also where
does the backfire start7
A backf1re is possible with either a
weak or rich mixture, although more
common with the former, because a
weak mixture burns more slowly. The
backfire starts in the cylinder and Is
due to the presence of flame in the
combustion chamber when the intake
valve opens to take in a fresh charge.
If the combustion of the charge is
very slow there will be a flame in the
cylinder, not only all through the pow
err or expansion stroke, but also
through the succeeding exhaust stroke,
so that what gas remains in the cylin-
der when the exhaust valve closes and
the intake valve opens is still mean
descent and sets the fresh charge on
with it, thus producing a hackfre.
Ordinarily q backfire can only be pro-
duced by a weak mixture at high
speed, say 1000 revolutions per min
ute, although with a very weak mix
ture or a very late spark a backf1re
may be produced at a much lower
speed. say 800. 1t is possible to make
the motor backfire by using too rich
mixture also, but the overrich mixture
burns faster than the one that is too
lean. and therefore the former is gem
orally burned out before the intake
valve opens.
Will larger valves increase the power
and speed of motor2
Large valves are essential to power.
Large intake valves especially add
much to the power of an engine.
What do cylinders Offset from the
crank shaft mean?
An offset cylinder is one whose axis
is offset from the vertical plane
through the crank shaft. That Is a
line drawn vertically through the
crank shaft center. In offset cylinder
construction when the piston is on top
dead center the connecting rod is not
directly in line with the crank shaft.
but, rather. makes an angle with it.
Cylinders are offset SO as to dimin-
ish the side pressure eXerted between
the piston and cylinder when the pis-
ton is on the firing stroke, accomplish
ed here by reducing the angle of the
connecting rod when the pressure upon
the piston is great and increasing the
angularity when the pressure is low.

ADVERTISER SELLS CHEAPER.

The far sighted merchants is not SO
much concerned in getting big profits
on individual sales rs IN getting a big
volume of business at reasonable net
profit. He realizes that II he is TO
reach out and get and hold business
he must get the volume OF business
90 he can sell on a smaller margin.
The larger the volume Of business
the more the selling cost is reduced.
because every concern could do far
more business than they do with the
same selling force. Salesmen's sal
aries and other expenses do not ma
terially increase as the sales increase.
One business man who had watched
the effect Of his advertising upon
his business for a number OF years
said his advertising increased the
sales TO such an extent his selling cost
was reduced TO one-fourth OF what
II was before and after adding the
cost OF advertising his selling cost
was still less than ope-half the preyi-
Gus selling cost. This is the expert
ence OF every merchant who has ad-
vertised his business as It should be
advertised
The merchant who increases HIS
sales and the volume OF his business
buys more goods and in bigger guam
titles than the smaller merchant and
thus gets bigger discount. The pro-
ducer can manufacture cheaper n he
manufactures in bigger quantities He
Is thus naturally going to give a bet
ter discount 10 the bigger merchant;
who buys In bigger quantities. thus
enabling the manufactures to manu-
facture In bigger quantities.
Now doesn't II stand TO reason that
the man who through iudioious ad-
vertising sells more goods. buys his
goods at a bigger discount. and re-
duces his selling cost one-half could
sell cheaper than the man who never
sdyertises. lie can and he does.

RELIEVES THE WORST
CASES OF CATARRH
Think "hyomei the Most Wonderful
Treatment for Catarrh Ever
Discovered

Do not try to cure catarrh by using
sprays or lotions; it cannot be cured
in that manner. The only way in
which this too common disease can
be fully relieved is through a direct
application to the affected parts that
will kill the bacilli of catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Breathing the air Of Hyomei is the
only known method of treatment that
can really accomplish this. 1t is the
simplest, most pleasant and probably
the most reliable treatment for ca
tarrh that has ever been discovered.
The complete Hyomei outfit Is in
expensive and consists of an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last
several weeks. This will effect in
slant relief in ordinary cases, but for
chronic and deep-seated cases OF ca
tarrh, longer use may be necessary
and then an extra bottle of Hyomei
can be obtained for trifling sum. 1t
is not alone the best( it might be
called the only method of treating
catarrh, but it is also the most eco
nomical.
w. l.. Gokay has so much conf
dence in the power of Hyomei to re-
lieve catarrh, that he will for a limit
ed time. sell this medicine under his
personal guarantee to refund the
money if the purchaser can say that
it did not benefit.
