somewhat as to valve timing Usually,
however the exhaust valve opens at
point about 40 degrees before bottom

degrees past top center. The intake
valve should open about ~ degrees
past top center and close about 80 de-

which states that they were not used
because they were too cumbersome and
gave too much bother. Ia this SO?
Ed.
Kerosene carburetors are In use. but
not universally. This is due to the fact
that kerosene is not OF a. very volatile
nature. Difficulty in starting a motor
is experienced with kerosene. In some
cases the motor has been started with
gasoline until heated and then the
kerosene used. Considerable heat is
required to properly vaporize the kero-
sene to an explosive mixture suitable
for flexible type engine. There are
a few makes, namely, as follows:

to settle dispute? Would there be
any difference in the amount of gaso-
line consumed in making two trips
over 10 miles OF level road. one at
20 miles per hour and the other at 40
miles per hour, and il so, would the
difference be less or greater il the
road were rough or rolling7 E. F..
The difference in gasoline eonsump-
ton would be very little. The ad
| justment of the carburetor would de-
termine this to a great extent. With
certain adjustment the motor may
operate more economically at 20 miles
an hour than at 40 miles an hour and
vice versa. The design Of the mani
fold and size OF valves also enter into
| this. Assuming perfect carburetor mix
ture at all engine speeds one is led to
believe that a faster speed would be
more economical in view of the fact
that the rolling momentum of the cal
would induce economy on a level
road. On a rough OF rolling road the
condition would undoubtedly be con
trary.

SOME TRIED HINTS

When the hanging basket looka
shabby, or is at a standstill, it prob
ably has been neglected as regards
water. Remember it is wholly sur
rounded by air, and requires more wa
ter than the potted plants.
Plants will not flourish If they must
breathe gas generated by coal or wood
in stove or furnace, or escaping illu-
minating gas. Stop the leaking gas.
and give ventilation by raising and
lowering window at some distance
from the plants, so that the air may
get warm before it strikes the flowers.
Liquid manure is valuable when it
is used with caution and good sense.
Do not make 1t too strong and thus
injure the plants, and do not give it
to the plants that are not growing,
or. that are taking their annual rest.
Turn the window plants often
enough to keep them from getting one
sided.
Fuchsias like some shade and plenty
of moisture, just like the pa1sy.
If a plant appears sick examine it's
roots. Perhaps you will find that it
needs repotting. II dead or rotten
leaves are found, remove them.

USE ARABS TO FIGHT LOCUsTS
Soldiers Dig Trenches Into Which
Hatching Pests Were Driven
and Destroyed.

Djemal Pasha put some thousands
of Arab soldiers at my brothers dis
position, and these were set to work
digging trenches into which the hatch
ing locusts were driven and destroyed.
This is the only means of coping with
the situation; once the lOcusts get
their wings, nothing can be done with
them. 1t was hopeless fight. Nothing
short of the cooperation of every
farmer in the country could have won
the day; and while the people of the
progressive Jewish villages struggled
on to the end-men, women and chill
dren working in the fields until they
were eXhausted-the Arab farmers sat
by with folded hands. The threats of
the military authorities only stirred
them to half-hearted efforts. Finally,
after two months of toll, the campaign
was given up and the locusts broke in
waves over the countryside, destroying
everything. AS the Prophet Joel said :
"The land is as the Garden of Eden

ABOUT BULB PLANTING
BY |. N. BENNINGTON.


When should bulbs be planted? is a
question often asked. Bulbs should be
put into the ground as soon as they
can be procured from the dealer. This
is generally in September or October.
The impression prevails to a large
extent that bulbs can be planted any
time during the fall. That is, that 1t
is safe to put them out any time be-
fore the ground freezes.
This is d mistake which grows out
of a lack of knowledge Of the plants
habits.
A bulb makes an annual growth of
roots during the fall. These are the
roots which support It next spring
while It Is blooming.
Unless this root-growth is COM
pleted In the fall 1t will give a crop
of inferior flowers, as the incomplete
work Of autumn will be taken up where
It was interrupted by cold weather
and carried on to completion while the
plant Is trying to produce crop of
flowers.
This makes It attempt to do double
duty on slender stock Of vitality.
Late planted bulbs, therefore, should
always give us inferior flowers, and
often none at all.
This explains why It is advisable to
plant bulbs as early In the fall as pos
sible. Give them ample time to de-
velop their roots before cold weather
puts an end to the work Of the season
II you want them to give you the
flowers next spring.

The Loo Line

The log line is one of the older de-
vices for measuring the velocity of
ship. The log is fiat is made so that
it will float perpendicularly. To this
a line is fastened, called the log line.
The approximate speed of the ship can
be determined by letting the line run
off for, say, half minute. The length
Of the line run off in that time gives
a basis for calculating the speed per
hour. The log, during the experiment,
remains stationary on the surface of
the water, of course. This is the older
method. modern method involves
the use of a log with revolving
mechanism which is dragged along in
the water behind the vessel.

Possibility of combustion.

The danger of fire from oil-soaked
rags such as many housekeepers keep
on hand for wiping up vanished
floors was demonstrated at a fre-risk
exhibit given in a New York window
recently. A quantity of oil-soaked rags
were placed in the window with a pla-
card stating that they were liable to
take fire at any time from instantane-
Gus combustion due to the action Of
the atmosphere upon the rags. A num-
Der of small blazes were started by
rags in this window. In one instance
combustion took place within seven
hours after the rags were placed in
position.
