may be due to faulty adjustment OF

inlet manifold or around the carbu-
rotor, or connection between the man
fold and motor, the fuel supply valve
may be partially clogged or there
may be water in the gasolene.
If the motor cannot be started the
spray nozzle, float valve or feed pipe
may be ,clogged, the gasolene tank
empty, the supply cock shut off OF,
with a measure feed system, the pres
sure in the tank too weak. With a
vacuum feed system it may be that
the instrument is not feeding enough
gasolene to the carburetor, due TO
some arrangement in the vacuum

Corbin Goes With
New Auto Company

Arthur E. Corbin, for the last six
years assistant sales manager of the
Packard Motor car company, has re-
signed, having acquired an interest in
the Pluym-O chs company of Petro-
grad and New York, the largest Rus
sian importers of American automo-
biIeSa and accessories. Mr.. Corbin will
develop the organization Of the
Pluym-Ochs company in advance Of
the expansion on which that firm
plans to enter when the war is over.
He will leave in few weeks for his
permanent post in Petrograd.
The Pluym-Ochs company, which
has American Offices in New York
City, handles several makes OF cars
and also the Curtiss aeroplanes. Its
Judgment is that Immediately after
the close OF the war, Russia will ex-
perience commercial and industrial
development of great proportions.
Mr.. Corbin has been twelve years
in the automobile business. He
started with the Stevens Duryea, and
had been with the Packard almost
nine years. Before going to the fac.
tory headquarters in Detroit as as
sistant sales manager, he was Pack
ard truck sales manager in New York
City.

start the motor by cranking 1t
few times, noting at the same time
whether the compression is fairly
even in all cylinders. 1t is difficult
to adjust a carburetor properly when
the compression is not about equal
in all cylinders; for poor compression
in one or more cylinders will cause
weak explosions, or misfring in those
cylinders.
Before any adjustment on carbu-
rotor is changed-and these adjust
ments are changed much too often
one should look for every other
trouble which would cause the same
misbehavior of the motor. The car
buretor is about the last thing to
get out of order and once adjusted
should give practically no trouble,
adjustments only being necessary at
the time of decided change in temp
erature.
There is a sort OF standard group
OF troubles connected directly and in
directly with the carburetor, that
should be known before carburetor
adjustment is attempted.
For example, a rich mixture--one

the manufacturer or his literature
or some user who has successfully
done the trick.
There are SO many different de-
signs and constructions now in use
that no rules can be given that will
enable one to successfully adjust all
types; however, there are few rules
which apply to many designs.
For instance, an experienced me-
chanic would begin by assuring him
self that there is gasolene in the main
tank-you will be amused at this
statement. possibly, but many motor
lists can call to mind dozen instances
where owners have set their carbu-
retors in a variety of ways to get the
motor started when the tank was
dry. Then he would ascertain that the
gasolene was getting to the float
chamber-that there we're no clogs in
the gas line.
Most carburetors have spray noz-
zles, so. if possible, an effort should
be made to see if the fuel is pass
ing through the nozzle or nozzles
when the float chamber is flooded
+ This can be done BY attempting to

Mitchell Cars to
Advance in Price

An increase Of 500 each in the
price Of the Mitchell and the Mitchell
Junior becomes effective December /,
as announced by the Mitchell Motors
company Of Racine, Wis.
Continued increases in the cost OF
materials and labor says Mr.. Friend,
has forced US to increase our prices.
For three months we have been un-
able to make anywhere near as ia
vorablc contracts for our raw ma
terial as we were some six months
ago, and with prices mounting higher
and delivery dates moving even far
ther ahead, we are obliged to protect
ourselves and the purchasers of our
product.
'We have held off until the last
minute, feeling that something might
occur to make an advance in price
unnecessary, but it is now so appar-
ent that the advancing cost of raw
material has not yet reached the high
tide that immediate action was neces-
sary Our prices, of course. were
based on the cost OF materials last
spring. The costs have since jumped
by leaps and bounds. For any manu-
facturer, this left only two courses
Of action open, namely, to reduce the
quality Of materials to absorb the in
creased price or to maintain the quail
ity and advance the price. Our duty
to the public is, of course, to main
tain the quality--to do this as a mat
ter OF self-preservation, prices must
advance, but the increase in our prices
is only sufficient to absorb the in
crease in the cost Of the materials
that go into Mitchell cars, and the
increase in wages we are obliged to
pay the skilled help that is required

after with the buying power consol-
dated, and the best of sales and man

TROUBLE WITH
THE CARBURETOR
knowledge o. the Device Is
Necessary for a Proper
Adjustment.
ILLS OF DIFFERENT TYPES

Adjusting a carburetor consists in
regulating the proportion Of air and
fuel in the gaseous mixture SO that
the mixture may be consumed to the
best advantage in the motor. As for
the ways and means of doing this,
it all depends upon the construction
of the carburetor, and the facili-
ties for adjustment. Before adjust
ing a carburetor one should always
cndeavor to learn how to perform
the operation by consulting either

HUDSON SUPER-SIX
MAKES new RECORD
Fast Time Is Made in Race
Over Nebraska and on to the
South, Into Texas.
HIGH SPEED is ATTAINED

From Nebraska to Oklahoma. 1888
miles, in FIVE hours and forty-hve min
utes, and from the Red river to the
Rio Grande, 62S miles. across Texas,
in ten hours and eight minutes, are
two new achievements Of the Hud-
son Super-Six in the recent Meridian
Range relay race against time.
These are new records for automo-
biies across the states OF Kansas and
Texas.
1t had been the intention OF the
Meridian Range Highway associa-
ton to advertise the proposed high
way between Canada and Mexico by
relaying messages from Dominion Of
fcials to those in Texas, all the way
from Winnipeg to Galveston. Severe
snowstorms in Canada and in sew
eral of the states prevented starting
the relay from Winnipeg November
|. The messages were, however. re-
layed across the states of Kansas and
Texas at whirlwind speed by Hudson
Super-Six cars.

Auto Beats the Mail.
Duplicates of the messages from
Canada were mailed by special de-
livery from Winnipeg. Those car
ried by the Hudson Super-Six cars
arrived in San Antonio twenty-five
hours and forty minutes ahead OF
those that were carried by mail. The
messages from the Canadian officials
to those OF Texas urged Texas to do
its part toward completing the pro-
posed Meridian highway and pledged
Canada to do its share.

run from Winnipeg to Texas. Had
the original program been carried out
it is expected several cross-state rec
