FARMERS IGNORED
BY REPUBLICANS
But Democratic Administration
Quickly Gave Them Justice
in Rural Credits.

Don't forget Mr.. Farmer, that
through your Farmers National Con
gress, National Grange, National
Farmers Union, American Society of
Equity. and similar organizations you
have for years demanded and have
importuned Republican administra-
tions for legislation you needed.
WHAT DID YOU GET?
Through all the years since 1864
the Republican Party was deaf and
blind to the farmers financial needs.
This in the face of the fact that sue
cessful systems Of Rural Credits were
in operation throughout Europe for a
century. When this great Democratic
measure was put to vote in the Sem
ate on May 4, 1916, only five Re.
publicans dared vote against It! Three
of them were on the subcommittee
who wrote the Republican Platform
of 1916.
Was 1t because you were not Big
Interests? You were. many of you.
highly financed. and High Finance
held the mortgnge-and to that extent
you belonged to High Finance. But
YOU paid big interest to associate with
Big Interests. 4 stack of wheai
wasn't rs good collateral as sbeaf
of scraps of paper held by stock
gambler. Nor did the Political Bosses
of the Republican Party care to
give you financial justice. They were
400 busy protecting themselves.
THE PROMISES OF THE DEMO.
CRATIC PLATFORM OF 1912 -
written in courage and honesty and
with sympathetic understanding OF
the needs of every honest American
interest-HAVE BEEN KEPT.
The Republican Party refused to do
these things. which the prosperity of
the American Farmer required.
The Republican presidential candi-
date. Charles l.. Hughes. denouncee
the Democratic party and President
Wilson for having done these things.

method is to allow .OOO7 inch more per

Is there a satisfactory fluid that can
be inserted into the inner tube which
will take the place Of air?
There are many fluids which have
been inserted in the inner tube TO take
the place of air, but non of them have
come into any extended use, the main
objection having been that they We're
not resilient enough or that they crum-
bled under the stress Of rough roads.
What is the objection found TO trans
mission gears built in and receiving tho
same oil as the ~cylinders2 Is there any
great objection TO tn oil as used IN
the crank case as q bricant for the
transmission gears?
The main objection to this is that the
lubricant which is suitable for cylin
ders is not suitable for gears. Gears
require a viscous lubricant which
clings to the surface and provides n
substantial film between the teeth.
The gear wheel must be able to carry
the oil around with It. In the cylinder
the oil requirements are entirely differ
IL lC ulAli' ulllcS "a hiSh N|biINtt
lures must be met with. and, since an
entirely different set Of conditions are
to be faced, the oil will naturally have
to be different If it IL to provide ideal
fabrication. Very often makers In the
past have connected the gear set to the
crank case so that the oil In the latter
worked its way to the former, and vice
versa. These makers have gradually
abandoned the method, however, as
the oil from he crank case was not
considered to be ideal for the gear set.
Another great objection to the Use Of
the in~terconnected gear set and crank
case is hat the car user would often
put heavy oil In the gear box, with the
result that 1t would work It's way into
the crank case and cause curbonization
Of the cylinders.

One Of the electric headlights on my
car throws a smaller radius of light
than the other. the lamps being of the
same candlepower and one seems as
bright as the other. Why the differ
ence?
1t is probable that one Of your lamps
Is out Of focus. If you will examine
your lamp you will note that the bulb
can be moved forward and backward
In relation to the reflector. This ad
justment should be made until the ray
Of light thrown out by the lamp Il
equal to the others. In order TO first
ascertain. however, that II is the focal
adjustment which Is incorrect II would
be a good idea to take the bulbs our
Of the lamps and interchange them.
Then if the same light gives the great
ert illumination and the reflectOrs arc
both clean it will certainly be a matter
Of adjusting the focus. Generally the
adjustment of the focus Is just back OF
the lamp proper and Is effected by
means Of a screw.

When an inflated tire is in a station

The pressure is the same throughout
the tire. 1t Is one Of the fundamental
physical properties Of gases that when
a mass OF gas is inclOsed In a vessel 1t
exerts a uniform pressure against ev-
cry square inch of the surface Of the
vessel and also that at any point in the
fluid mass the pressure is the same In
every direction. Were this not so the
gases In the tire would not be in a
state Of equilibrium. and hence. al
though the tire was stationary. the
gases would be under constant motion.
