When Gasoline Runs Low.

In Farm and Fireside is an ingenious
suggestion for autoists whose gasoline
has run SO low that they have. trouble
In hill climbing. -
One sometimes is caught out with a
low supply, of gasoline through having
to make =. long detours to avoid bad
roads or from other causes. The sup
ply can be made to stretch over this
emergency by adding denatured alco-
hol or kerosene. Occasionally there is
sufficient gasoline for the ordinary lev
Ell road, but not enough for an unex-
pected hill.
In this case the principle of pressure
feed can be applied. Screw the cap
down tight on the gasoline tank and
then sharpen a match to fit the venti-
iating hole in the cap. Blow into this
hole as hard as possible and immedi-
ately plug with a sharpened match.
Usually this will enable the driver to
make the hill without further trouble
But if not he can turn the car around
and back uphill. =

straining Henry w eaver from
trafficing in. bartering, selling or
giving away of intoxicating liquors
