MORE RELIABLE THAN TEAMS
Hot Weather and Long Hours Have
No Effect on Gas Engines,
Says Professor Sanders.

That the gas engine ranks first
among labor saving machinery and
fills the most important place on the
farm machinery list, is the opinion Of
W. H. Sanders, instructor in farm mo-
tors in the Kansas State Agricultural
college.
Internal combustion engines in their
present stage of efficiency can be re-
lied upon to a greater degree than any
other type of farm machinery, if they
are properly handled by an operator
that understands the principles of
their construction" says Mr.. Sanders.
THE average farmer with little
study and the application Of a small
amount OF common sense will find
that he is capable of running and car
ing for any of the engines on the
market.
THE gas engine is an economic ne
costly to the modern farmer, not only
because of its wide adaptability but
also due to its time saving qualities
The modern type of farmer finds that
he must keep everything and every
body going at top speed every day dur
ing the rush season. He also finds
that the pace is too much for either
man or beast to stand and it is here
that the gas engines show their true
value
1.-THE rush season always arrives in
hot weather when the horses are I'M
able to give their best efforts to the
farmer. The gas engine will travel
through the hot weather with the
up the pace without a waYer for "a
hours at a stretch
While the gas engines are not work
ing they are not eating their heads
off as the horses do, especially dur
ing the winter season, points out Mr..
Sanders.

STITCH IN TIME SAVES NINE
Just as True in Road Dragging as In
Fence Repairing and Other Work
Around the Farm.

CBy NJ A r. KELLY. Missouri College
of AeTiculture)
"a stitch in time saves nine" is just
as true in road dragging as in fence
fixing and other farm work. Don't let
the rush of farm work cause you to
neglect road dragging until the ruts
are so deep and the weeds have such
a start that the drag cannot do its
best work. A little careful work now
and during the remainder OF the sea-
son will not only keep the roads in
good shape but keep down the weeds
in such way to save a great deal Of
work at weed-mowing time.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-With
President Wilson's acceptance Of
Germapy's now altered policy Of sub,
marine warfare only today recs ived
In Berlin, that new policy may al

a submarine commander. The torpe'
doing OF the liner Cymr,c, II II was
without warning. apparently violates
the very orders against attacking
merchantmen which the German i'm
perial government has declared are
in effect.
The fact that no Americans were
aboard, Washington officials said to-
day. does not enter into the case.
Germany has declared her orders
now to submarine commanders are
intended to ccnfne the operation Of
the war for the rest of It's duration
TO the fighting forces Of the bellig.
erents. The Cymric was not Of the
fighting forces.
What effect the Cymric incident
may have Is problematicai. II Amer
leans were aboard, quick disavowal
of the attack and proper repsration
would be expected. The United
States government has made the
maintenance Of friendly relations
with Germany contingent on the
abandonment Of such attacks as that
reported yesterday.
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1916-05-09

even should II be learned that the
Cymric was torpedoed without warn.

The White Star once believes
that no Americans we're among the
crew OF 40 carried by the Cymric,
though one or two American sailors
may have been taken on at New
York. The liner was capable Of
only about Is knots an hour. and
With her heavy war munitions cargo
would have been easy prey to one
OF the new and speedy German u
boats. For the last six weeks she
has carried no passengers on her
trips between New York and Liver

German submarine operations will
