Motoring Department. The Times: I
am having trouble with my battery. A
year ago II was frozen up and broke one
jar. so i had It refiiled and replaced.
ana now II doesn't seem to take any
change. ! put II on the car again and
tested four volts. but won't test any,
thing with the hydrometer syringe ties.
ter. When driving at rate of twenty
to twenty-five miles It only shows five
ampers flowing into the battery. The
lights are no brighter with the battery
than just the use OF the generator. and
the lights seem to flicker. What must
! do. Throw away this battery or can
II be recharged? ! have 1914 model
,9-T Overland. What battery must
have for my starter and lights?
Do not attempt to use the battery
until the electrolyte Is corrected. az
the battery may easily be ruined II
should be placed on charge for sew
eral hours and the strength tested each
hour. When the gravity no longer rises
during the three hours the acid should
be brought up to 1875. II IL gives no
test with hydrometer after five hours
pour II out and fill with electroiyte at
les. II the generator does not keep Il
charged. or It does not hold its charge
for reasonable time. the system should
be inspected by an expert.
The battery should at least have a
capacity Of 40 ampere hours.

motoring Department. The Times:
kindly state three causes that will
make an exhaust valve work improper
". what will be the effect on an ex-
nausI valve that does not seat proper
w would II be possible for an exhaust
valve to be automatic? j. b.
Some reasons why an exhaust valve
VIII not work properly are as follows:
valve litter out Of adjustment: spring
broken; stem bent SO that II sticks
open: head warped; face and seat pit
ted. burned, or caked with carbon.
III valve does not seat. the compress
sion will leak around valve and most NJ
the power from that cylinder will be
wasted,
An exhaust valve can never be auto
matte. AZ II opens against a heavy
pressure at the end Of the power stroke.
rms necessitates a positively driven
mechanism. as you can readily see.

Strike Vein of
High Grade Ore

Piercing a body of solid low
grade ore for a distance of So
feet, Drill No. /, on the property
of the Geronimo Mining Com
pany, in Graham county, has
struck a vein of high grade ore,
averaging somewhere around ten
per cent. The extent of the body
can not be estimated, but it is
known that after drilling for
several days, the drill is still in
in the high grade at depth of
95 feet. W.
Drill No. 8, after a delay of
several days on account of me-
chanical troubles, is at last in
commission, and IS at work on
the opposite end of the property
from No. l to No. 2, having gone
down for water and found it at
a depth of 81 feet, is now work
ing on the ore. By means of
these three drills, all going down
in widely separate parts of the
property, the engineer in charge
expects, in the course of a few
weeks, to be able to form at least
a rough estimate of the extent of
the high grade orebody. The
full story, it is thought, will not
be known for months.
