RANGE CATTLE NOW
GIVEN Preference
Native or Farm Raised Steer Not
So Nearly of One Type in
Color and Breed.

The range steer receives the prefer
ence now for the feed lot over what Is
termed the native steer, the farm
raised steer of the corn-belt states.
This is largely due to the more, uni
form quality Of loads Of cattle from
the range. The native cattle are not
so nearly Of one type; in fact, they are
most generally Of a mixed breed. mixed
colors, mixed sizes and dissimilarity
prevails, showing that they are pick
ed-up neighborhoOd product.
There was a time In the history Of
cattle feeding when the reverse con-
ditions prevailed. The range steer
was looked upon with suspicion by the
cattle feeder. There was not much In
his makeup that pleased the feeder.
His long horns, his wild, nervous,
scared-half-tO-death actions and be-
haviOr convinced the feeder buyer that
he did not care to risk him. 1t took
a few years to break down this pre-
judice. but gradually good reports
became more common until the sand
hills cattle of Nebraska and some 9TH
er western districts where good quail
ity of beef-bred bulls were used be-
came famous in the demand for their
feeder steers, says Twentieth Century
Farmer.
The steady increase in breeding
quality Of the range cattle generally
is q feature that must not be lost

The condition Of q sick horse Is
shown to certain extent by the ap-
pearance of the mucous membranes.
For example, when the animal is ane-
mic as result Of disease or Of inap-
prOpriate feed the mucous membranes

cous membranes can be seen most read
lily in the lining of the eyelids and in
the lining Of the nostril. Paleness
means weak circulation or poor blood.
Increased redness occurs in painful
conditions, excitement and following
severe exertiOn. In fevers there is an
increased redness in the mucous men,
brane, and this continues so long as
the fever lasts. In some diseases red
spots or streaks form in the mucous
membrane. This usually indicates an
infectious disease of considerable Sc

SCARCITY OF POTASH

Expert of Massachusetts Agri.
cultural College Recommends
Use as Fertilizer.

Parsnips are a long-season root
crop, which occupy the ground until
the late fall and sometimes until the
following spring. II. f. Thompson.
professor of market gardening, Mas
sachusetts Agricultural college, has
recommended for beets and carrots
the use Of 1000 pounds per acre Of
high-grade fertilizer, analysing 8 per
cent nitrogen, per cent phosphoric
acid and 10 per cent potash.
Present wartime conditions prevent
the use Of the amount Of potash recon-
mended, and probably the best advice
that may be given Is to use as much
potash as can be obtained now.

SIXTY AUTOMOBILES
IN ONE TRAINLOAD
Company Celebrates Ending or
Fiscal Year by Big
Shipment.

As a fitting climax to year OF most
remarkable expansion and growth. the
Olds Motor works celebrated the cics-
Of its fiscal year by loading a solid
,rainload Of sixty Santa Fe automu-
bile care which moved out of Ian
sing, Mich, Sunday morning, July 20.
for Kansas city.
Train loads are not new to the auto
mobile business; but such an immense
shipment as sixty cars, many of which
were doublo-deck, has occurred but
very few times among the many re-
markable accomplishments of the
automobile industry 1t is particularly
worthy of note at this time when some
predicted that war conditions would
affect the motor car business
The shipment contained 207 Olds-
mobiles of different models valued at
$2S3. 1900. Transportation charges
alone were over $4,000. The tram
was over half mile long-in fact IT
was not possible to photograph all OF
II, as there was not a stretch of track
with unohstructed view around Lam
sing that was long enough to show
the train.

demonstration of Oldsmobile progress
and accomplishments. as 1t tells IN
positive terms of the wonderful strides
accomplished by the Olds Motor WORKS

over, II serves equally we'll as a stan
dard by which to reckon on Oldsmo-
biles for the future since they are now
building enough cars daily to load
such train from less than two days
output.

as ID. II we could now couple these
two forks together in some way 40
that the shaft b could move up and

A sideways, with the fork c as a pivot,
our problem would be solved. This
can be done by coupling them wi,ii

Joint is shown.
BY observing figure 2. you will no.
uce that the spider + is in horizon
tai position. and that the fork ID and
shaft b have swiveled on its pins. -,

luton the universal will take the posi-
tion shown in figure 3. Here you will
notice that the spider has swiveled on

have made but an eighth OF revoIu-
ton. the propeller shaft will nav 6
partly swivelcd on the spider, ana tn-
spider will have partly swiveled on
the fork of the driving shaft. Thds
you see that by means Of this double
swivel the shaft will be driven even
when At an angle.
1t Is found that for one-quartter OF
revolution the driven shaft wiii he
slightly retarded, while for the next
quarter, it will be slightly accelerated.
then II will again be retarded and
again accelerated, so that the drive of
the rear wheels viii not be absolutely
uniform To overcome this difficulty
two universals are generally used, the
forks on each end of the propeller
shaft being placed at right angles TO
one another. In this way the retard-
ing action of tho ono viii come dur
ing the accelerating action of the
other. thus equaliHlng the fault ana
giving n uniform drive.
Were the propeller shaft positively
connected to the universal Joint. then
the rear ankle. a, II moves up and
down with respect to the frame, would
have to move thru an arc of a circle.
the center of which Is the front uni
"ersal. In many cars. the springs,
torQue arm or radius rods are so de-
signed that they will not permit this.
The propeller shaft is therefore con-
necte dto one OF the universals in such
a manner as to be able to slide uacS
and forth in II. which is usually zone
by having its end square, and fitting
it into a square hole in one of the
universals. This is shown in figure 3.
In the Ford car. the radius rods are
so designed that. tho the end of the
propeller shaft Is square, it does no,
slide back and forth and the pin pa,.s-
ing thru the hub of the universe; and
the shaft must not be left out, as it
so often is.
In order to take care of the lubri-
cation, the universal is usually in
closed in a metal cover or housing,
one end of which is ball shaped, ana
against which shutter, equipped with
a packing which will prevent greas,
working out presses. This is shown
in figure l., being the housing, on

shutter is held pressed against the

manufacturers have finally desisneu
a joint which can he packed WIN
enough grease to last for many thou
sand miles, and which is as nearly
neglect proof as possible.
Why do we need the universal
joint?
The rear axle IS attached to tirv
frame by means of springs and so the
height of the frame above the axle IN
constantly changing. and Thereon"
the angle of the propeller shaft to
the crank shaft OF the engine will
constantly be changing. This makes
1t impossible to have these two shafts
in n straight line at all times. and
therefore the universal which wiii
drive thru the varing angles, must be
used. In most cars the propeller
shaft will be in line with the engine
shaft. when the car is fully loaded
but must, because of the spring action
then be at an angle when only par
italy loaded

LESSON NO. 80.
n.nnrtIa. GI.,et

As the engine is placed in the for
ward part of the car, while the wheels
which are to be driven by the engine
are placed some feet in the rear of
the engine, the two must be connected
by shaft. This shaft is called tuO
propeller shaft. Sometimes IL is calico
the driving shaft, but this name is
generally given to the driving shafts
in the rear axle
The propeller shaft is usually nulh-
ing more than piece of solid round
steel. tho for lightness sake, 1t is often
a tube of steel. II itself requires no
attention and practically never gives
trouble.
The Universal Joint.
The propeller shaft is connected to
the power plant. and in most cars to
the rear axle, by what is known as the
universal joint. which might be de-
fined as a device for transmitting re-
volving motion from one shaft to an
other, when the axles of these shafts
are at an angle to one another
