SEEK SHORT CIRCUIT
Drivers Will Frequently Find Troubles in the Starting
 System Due to That.
BRUSHES MAY BE AT FAULT
In Any Event, Thorough investigation Will Show That Blame Is Not With the Engine, but Caused
 by Neglect of Machine.

Troubles in the starting system are indicated in two ways: First, the start CT will not crank the engine at all or, second, 1t cranks it so slowly that proper starting is not given. The first thought in either of these cases is that the battery may be partly or com pletely discharged or it may be Oper- atinS at very low efficiency, due to very cold weather or some other cause.
 Coming back to the general head of when the starting motor will not crank the engine at all there are two causes, open circuits and short circuits or grounds.
 Open circuits on the crunking motor will be found at the brushes, in loose connections at the commutatur start ing switch or in the wiring. If at the brushes they may be worn too short or improperly adjusted. They may also stick in the holders. due to binding or dirt. Loose connections are obvious. the commutator troubles are the same as those for generators. the starting switch trouble Is nearly always II fall ure of switch blades to make contact. Sometimes the switches are fused Ow- ing 10 racing.
 Under the head of short circuits and grounds. these cnn be divided under the general heads of those in the ar mature, those in the wiring and those at the starting switch. In the arIna- ture or field winding of the motor these may be either burned out or grounded. In the wiring a short cir cult may exist due to routed or worn insulation or n ground from rotted or worn insulation or from metal screw or cleat connections which cut through the insulation, making ground to one of the metal parts of the car. In the starting switch either ground or short circuit may be found due to wa ter soaking or otherwise defective in sulatiOn.
 After the battery condition has been looked after and the starting switch examined for poor contact, the remain ing source of trouble is due to drop in potential caused by high resis- tance in the starting circuit. The brushes may not fit the commutator or have proper spring tension or may be poor. giving high resistance. The brush leads may also give poor con tact. The same coDmutdtor troubles applying to the generator may exist or there may be loose connections in the starting motor wiring.

BURNING OUT CYLINDER
METHOD OF REMOVING CARBON
 DOES NO HARM.
en-eetter, Always, to Prevent Accumulation of Carbon.

'Will the burning of oxygen in the cylinder of an auto, 10 remove the car bon, injure the aluminium pistons:' is one of the questions frequently asked the engineering extension department of Iowa State college. The answer given by R. A. Leayell, automobile ex- pert of the college, is that it will not. Exhaustive experiments on this subject have just been completed by one of the most reliable auto manufacturing companies and not one instance was found where the aluminium pistOns suf- fcred from this treatment.
 Where the cylinder heads are de tachable, the removal of the carbon is an easy matter. But with the older cars and others where they are not removable. the carbon is often removed hy burning out with oxygen gas. If the operator takes the pr.Caution of turning the crank until both valves in the cylinder which is to he burned out are closed, no harm will be done. The spark plug should be removed and if necessary the hole closed with an old plug, since the intense heat of the burning carbon would burn off the points and crack the porcelain.
 IL is better to prevent the accumula- tion of carbon than 10 have to remove it. If once a week or every 500 miles a half teacup of kerosene is poured in to each cylinder while yet warm from running and allowed to soak all night, it will loosen the carbon and will leave no harmful effects if the motor Is cranked over by hand few turns with the priming cups open or the spark plugs out to eXpel the excess of kero- sene before any attempt is made to use the starter or run the engine.

GOOD ROADS ARE NECESSARY
Weli-Graded and Drained Earth Road, When Dragged Regularly, ls
 Quite Satisfactory.

Two very striking facts present themselves 10 those who have noticed our country roads this season. The first fact is that proper drainage is vitally necessary in order to have n permanently good road. The second fact is that well-graded and drained earth road. when dragged regularly, will give us pasSable aud fairly good road even under abnormal weather conditions. Some of the best roads we have passed over this season have been simply dirt roads receiving log drag treatment. Some of theworst roads we have gone over this season have been expensively made grayeled roads which have been bad simply because of lack of drainage. The fundamental principle of road building. after all is said and done is to so grade our roads and provide drainage that the water can get away.
 Sentiment in tine middle West seems to be gradually settling down to the opinion that good roads are Il ne ceSsity and not a luxury. Building roads for automobile owners now means building roads for farmers and not for city people alone. The farm tractor and the farm truck of the fu- ture will further emphasize the i'm portance of good country roads. The only thing that must be insisted on is that roads must be made of the best materials at hand, and the work must be done under the supervision of those who understand road-making. This supervision naturally adds to the cost. Another thing thu: must be understood is that maintenance of the road year after year, prompt attention being paid to repairs, is just as necessary as the first construction.
 We predict that cood-road building will continue to be one of the most popular subjects for discussion for the next few years. The proposed federal aid for road building, providing s75,- 100000 to he spent during the next five years when similar sum is raised by the local community. means that q national system of roads is to become

METHOD OF PATCHING HOLES
Which Acts as Binder-Use Concrete Mixer.

road surfaces with sprayed oil has de- veloped new method of patching holes. Gravel is mixed with a heavy road oil, which acts as binder. This is prepared In advance and carted to the place where the patching is to be done. Less gravel is needed than when 1t Is used dry, because the hole need be filled only level and tamped, while with the ordinary method the patching gravel must be hsaped above the nor nal surface of the road. Where patch ing on a large scale Is to be done, a concrete mixed can be used to prepare the mixture. - Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Gas Car and Electric Combined.

Combining the utility of both a gaso- ine and an electric motor car, a new dual power passenger car recently put on the market by a western manufac- turer may be run by either gasoline or electricity. or both, thus retaining the great mileage ability of the gas car and at the same time the simplicity of the electric. The power plant of this unique vehicle consists of small gasoline motor and an electric power generator combined in one unit under a conventional hood forward of the dash, and a storage battery carried be- heath the rear seats.-Popular Science Monthly.
