Feed Your Watch.

Science says that winding is
the food of a watch. The time.
keeping value of a watch de-
ponds less upon its cost than
upon the care that is taken of it
by it's owner. If wound in the
worning it will keep better time.
1t is a notorious fact that
watches owned by women are
less accurate than those carried
by men. The cause for this can
be directly assigned to the irreg-
ularity with which women wind
their watches and the frequency
with which they allow them to
run down.
When a. watch is allowed to
The Adair County news., 1916-06-21

stop because it has not been
wound it is equivalent to a imam
being compelled to stop work be-
cause he is starved. Starve him
often enough and you weaken
him so greatly that his ability to
do steady work is gone. Starve
a watch spring often enough and
it is weakened so that its ability
to do steady work is gone. A
good watch should never be al
lowed to run down, nor should
the strain ever be put on the
spring of forcing it to work to
the limit of its winding.
When watch spring is tightly
coiled, in other words, when it
has been recently wound, it is at
its point of greatest power.
The tick of a watch then is
strong and the potency of the
spring is more than enough to
regulate the works. At the
eighteenth hour, in an average
time piece, the spring has be-
come sufficiently far uncoiled to
weaken its sorength so that its
working powers are only a little
above the work it has to do.
From the twentieth to the twen-
ty-second hour the point is
reached when the power of the
spring begins to be strained.
For a couple of hours further the
strength of the spring sufices,
but after that severe strain is
put up on it:
The four hours or so that a
watch will run beyond its true
period of "a hours is harder on
the watch than a week of reg
ular running, and because of the
weakness of the spring it fails
to keep good time.
