the roadway and a man can easily tell
how his gasoline mileage is going Take

fabrication Needs Watching.
fabrication is the third feature OF
an automobiles life and it should be
watched on a very definite system. De-
termine on some mileage figure for
regular inspection, according to the
service your car gives on greases and
oil. For instance. establish an inspec-
ton point at every 500 miles Of your
speedometer. At these points go over
your grease cups, turn them down and
fill them up again; look into your diff
ferential: see il your universal has
enough grease; observe your clutch,
If it has separate oiling system; look
at the transmission, observe the motor
itself and learn II the oil is at the
proper level and all the feed pipes free.
Give the magnetic a drop or two of Oil.
Every 1000 to 5000 miles the crank case
should be drained free OF all the old
oil, washed out with kerosene and the
cylinder washed. Then new, fresh oil
should be put in. The cost is nothing
compared to the results The steering
gear should be cleaned two or three
times a year by pouring kerosene oil
through IT. This cuts out a great deal
OF the grit that accumulates. drawn in
through the radiator, and makes the
handling of the car much less of an
effort. Occasionally cleaning OF the
knucSle joints will help also"
