NO POTATO ASSOCIATION.
For Several Reasons the Time Is Not
Ripe for Such Action.

At the meeting held in the court
house Saturday Prof. e. A Keffer and
e. A. Brehm, of the Division OF Ex-
tension, Knoxville, were present and
made talks looking to the forming of
Potato Association. They sought to
briefly give such information as would
enable our farmers to understand the
benefits to be derIveud and to also get
an understanding pt the DIFF eruItieisi ii af. e
fsendaht' t';ii;s droi ffs aatIfi Il agtSfruftg I
After a general discussion of the
subject by numerous persons a COM
mittee consisting Of J. E. Converse,
C. E. Brookhart, Cuff Parsons, Harry
Martin and D. W. Kerley, was ap-
pointed to consider the ACCESSIBILITY Of
attempting to form potato assocla-
tion. After brief discussion among
themselves they reported adversely to
such an attempt at this time. Ihe
maiE reasons they advanced were that
those who were present, while feeling
that such an organization could be
made useful, were too widely separated
to ship from one station, which would
render car lot snluments impossible.
They further telt that, owing to the
price for potatoes beng good and the
demand so strong this year, that it
would be very difficult to form an as
soc:ation.
Prot. Keffer and Mr.. Brehm assured
the meeting that they would do all pos
sible to encourage buyers to look to
this section for potatoes. Thew urged
careful grading to the end that repu-
tatIon may be established such as the
high quality of our potatoes justlfies
and by that means Cur market con-
stanty wldened and strengthened for
the future.
Before adjournment vote of thanks
was extended to Messrs keffer and
Brehm tor the effort they had put forth
IN all ways in behalf of this section.

A new manifold, termed The Ralns-s
horn, has been constructed of simple pip
ing. 1t is on the exterior of the engine 1t
is manifold OF easy curves so that there
are no sharp corners for the raw gas TO lodge
against and be pushed into the cylinders
The next development was to give the
gas the proper amount of heat after it came
from the carburetor.
What is termed hot plate" is built i'm
at the top of.the throat of the carburetor SO
that the gas coming straigh up from the car
buretor hits the 'hot plate, the dimensions
of which have been worked out very scien-
uflcally, and then passes around the easy
curves of the smooth manifold in a perfect
state OF mixture and at the proper tempcra-
ture to each of the cylinders.
N The case of this Chalmers engine has
been proved.
l.. On August 1 and 2, Joe Dawson
drove Chalmers. equipped with this same
engine 1898 miles In "a hours-faster and
farther than anyone ever before had travelled
on land, sea or air.,
<, If there's a flaw in pattexr, or part, a
solid day of bitter, brutal speed will find it.
- e.. There are over 1000 Chalmers
containing this engine now in use. They
check up past all expectations.
Therefore, the Maxwell Motor Com
pany, which has leased The Chalmers Motor
Company, has put it's o. K. on this engine,
and accordingly on the Chalmers car.
80 per cent of any automobile is the
engine; and no car can be bit better than
its engine.
!. So you are safe in writing your check
for Chalmers.

The Coming of a
GREAT ENGINE
II Makes High Roaver Out of Loe0 Craze Gas

Men who drive cars are face to face with
condition that becomes moro and more
serious each day.
That condition is the constantly dc
Ginning grade of gasoline.
Nearly every engineer has said goodby
forever to high-gradc gas.
For the moment, and possibly for all
time, multi-cylndcrs, counter balanced
crankshafts, and little tricks with valves
give way in engineers discussions to the
gas problem.
Every alert engineer is bending his
utmost to make one drop of gas do
the work of two.
Just as great situations produce great.
men, SO out of this condition has conc a
great engine.
1t is Chalmers ~.
1t makes high power out of low grade
Compared with other engines of the
same size or Whereabouts, it shows: SIZE.
More bouCe', More rapid accsle,ahef,i',
Greater ecoao,ny Greater length efLiie ~
II, Greater sm0othness
find an a,aasfug ability 10 start quickly or
cold dag, and TO qoa'n UP 4cithout delay
The Chalmers engine is simple one.
That is one reason why it is so good.
In many engines of the moment the gas
passes on its way from the carburetor to thc"
cylinder through tunnel, which runs all
the way through the engine block
Before the gas gets to the cylinder it is
forced to turn many sharp angles and does
not become completely mixed with the air.
This results in raw gas running into not
only one but all the cylinders, particularly
when the car is cold, and especially when
running for the first five or ten miles.
In the case Of the Chalmers engine this
tvpe of intake manifold has been rc,,,.
