DOES AWAY WITH ROLL
NEW FRONT SPRING INTENDED
 FOR SMALL CARS.
British Engineer Has Designed Appa. ratus Which Is q Combination
 Of Many Good Points.

Al a time when many mechanicall, inclined Americans construct their own automobiles from spare parts and discarded old cars, the type of front spring shown in the accompany ing illustration should be of particu- lar interest. Springing the front axle of light car has always been difi- cult matter, particularly if the spring is to be a transverse one, pivoted in the center, since in such a case the car shows 6 tendency to roll on un- even roads. To overcome this we'll known tendency a British engineer has designed type of front spring which combines the good points of the cantilever with the lightness and strength of the front transverse type
 The two sections of the spring are joined by two spring clips. equally distant from the center and the ends

The care of the jack is not different from the care of the stallion except in the matter of exercise.
 The jack cannot be driven or worked with satisfaction as it is a stubborn animal and not easily handled.
 The jack should have a large lot connected with his stall in which to run when he pIeases: he will not need much exercise and will not take much.
 The jack is a vicious beast and a great fighter. Jacks have been known to kill stallions much larger than themselves. The jack should never be allowed a chance to get at another animal, and the caretaker should ex- ercise great care in handling him.
 An ordinary stallion bit-curb. the strap running under the chin, will not control . jack. He will require a heavy bit and chain. We have seen jacks handled with a stick attached
Tombstone epitaph., 1916-01-30

to one ring of the bit. like bull stick.
 Some people say a jacks bite is deadly poisonous. There may be noth- ing in that. but once a jack gets hold of man his life is in great danger.
 It must not be understood that . jack is, as rule, more dangerous than a stallion. except that he has more bulldog in him, is less intelli- gent, and is utterly without affection.
 The jack requires about the same ration as the stallion. He should have corn and oats and plenty of clean tim. othy hay with a bran mash once or twice a week to keep him in good condition. He should be fed lightly during the closed season.
 The jack is the most fastidious ami. nal about his drinking water, and will not drink unclean water, nor will he drink from a trough or vessel that has been used by other animals.

ONLY KIND OF COW
 THAT IS PROFITABLE
Animal Must Produce 200 Pounds of Butterfat Annually if She
 Is to Pay Her Way
CBy FRISSIS W. PECKl

From se-eral years' records of milk prodr.tIon and cost of maintenance :. has been found that a COW must produce at least 200 pounds of butter fat or about $500 pounds of milk an. nually if she is to pay her way. This means 1s pounds of milk daily for 300 days.
 The annual cost of maintaining . COW is close to $65, if . man values his labor at 15 cents an hour. If . man wants more than . market prfce for feed and this bare wage, he must put his time on COWS giving more than 200 pounds of fat. The larger the in crease over this amount the larger hia pay will bs.

MAP OUT A SYSTEM
Regularity in 0iIing and Greasing Automobile Will Bring
 Good Results.
NEGLECT ALWAYS PAID FOR
Frequent and intelligent Attention to Car Is Effort We'll Directed Some Directions Which Are Worth Keeping in the
 Memory.

If an automobile owner will map put a simple, regular system for oil- ing and greasing his car his satisfac- tion will reach the maximum and his troubles the minimum. His car will be es per cent efficient and his wor- ries decreased to a considerable er- tent.
 A very effective system of oiling end greasing which will prove satis- factory, even to one having little knowledge of car, is outlined here tnafter:
 The front spring bolts and shackles should be well greased once to every 300 Or 400 miles of travel. Neglect at these parts will soon produce noise. The same attention should be given to the rear spring joints. The rear axle gear-set and transmission gearJ should be inspected and fabricated at least once to each POGO miles of travel. In this connection one should bear in mind that there are many inferior Ereases on the market and attention should be paid to the proper selec- ton of materials.
 The ciutch-shiftine parts and brake joints should be kept we'll oiled at all times. In oiling the magneto or other ignition devices one should bear in nind the functions vhich these parts perform.
 Too liberal . use of oil at these points vfn sceen cause trouble and in some cases put the ignition out of commission. Two or three drops of oil once sa every 2.000 miles will be sufficient. This rule may also be ap- piled to the care of the starter.
 Motors having water pumps should be given attention at this point The grease cups should be kept filled with hard grease and given c turn every day or two providing the car is in constant use. In ofltng the motor it. eelf great care should be exercised in using oils of the proper weight. It is . very good idea to keep a close tab on the oil gauge and the oil feed see. Oftentimes the feeders become ciokged, or they may run too freely. ThSs is . waste on the one hand and . serious neglect on the other.
 An moving joints exposed to the dust and dirt should receive constant care e to oiling. Dry spring leaves can be fabricated by separating the leaves esd allowing . mixture of grar phits and oil to run between them.
 uD.s: hearings should be packed with hard eh = least once in every 5000 miles. Much care -houid be used h greasing the steering gear and all connecting parts. A fairly soft grease should be used on the steering knuckles, as any binding here will make steering dinicuit
 Such attention will necessitate little expenditure Of time. but It will be an effort well directed and will fnsurs greater efficiency. longer life to the mechanics and . sweeter run sing CT.

New York, N. Y.-Most people fool

trum or narcotic drug, said DIR. Sauer,
a specialist of this city, when, as a
matter of fact, real and true strength
can only come from the food you eat.
But people often fail to get the
strength out Of their food because they
haven't enough iron in their blood to
enable it to change food into living
matter. From their weakened, nerr-
GUS condition they know something is
wrong, but they can't tell what, so they
generally commence doctoring for
stomach, liver or kidney trouble or
SYMPTOMS of some other ailment
caused by the lack of iron in the blood.
This thing may go on for years. while
the patient suffers untold agony. If
YOU are not strong or we'll, you owe it
to yourself to make the following test !:
See how long you can work or how far
YOU can walk without becoming tired.
Next take two five-grain tablets of or
