INTELLIGENT PONY.

One of our newspapermen has a
pony which is valued very highly by
all the family. When the children and
the mother go to feed the creature he
does not seem to take kindly to them,
but when the lord and master of the
house goes out to the stable there is
a smoker of delight from the pony. II
was some time time before the chill
dren found out the reason why. FL
nally they discovered that daddy broke
the ears of corn in two and the pony
thought he was getting double ratlons.
Some pony that.

STARTING IN COLD WEATHER
Expert Advises Priming the Cylinders With Gasoline for Five Minutes
 Before Setting Out.

Do you have trouble in starting your stationary engine, gas tractor or auto mobile? If so. here are some sugges- tiOns that may prove of value:
 The heavy grade of gasoline sold on the market is responsible for much of the difficulty, in the opinion of ". H. Sanders, instructor in farm motors in the Kansas State Agricultural college. In the summer the gasoline vaporizcS readily, but in the winter this process takes place so slowly, due to low tenn perature. that the engine will not start when cranked.
 ''To start the motor in cold weather '' said Mir. Sanders. prime the cylinders with q liberal amount of gasoline, and let stand for five minutes. The man who is running the engine can use this time for oil!ng and making minor ad- justInents. The gasoline will take up sufficient heat, even from the cold walls of the engine, to yapOriZe.
 There are a number of other ways to start an engine in cold weather. IL can be warmed by pouring hot water into the radiator. Hot water poured over the carburetor will cause the gaSO- line to vaporize before it passes into the cylinder. Ether vapOriZeS quickly and can be used for priming, but 1t is expensive.

Preserving the Cars Beauty.

There are several good preparations on the market put up in the form of waxes and polishes which are designed to protect the surface of the body the finish-frOm the action of water, rain, dirt and even to some extent from the suns rays. The use of good body polish is recommended to bright en up the varnish and make the finish last longer, but be careful to select one which does not contain objection able alkali and acids. If the body is waxed it does not iniure it to dust of with soft cloth or cotton duster, al though mud which has dried on should be washed of.
