SOLVED BY TRUCKS
TRANSFORMATION OF PRODUCE
 MADE EASY FOR FARNERS.
Motor Service Brings Consumer and Producer Together for Their Mu- tuai Benefit-Reduees Expense
 of Food Distribution.

If such authorities as Irving Fisher are correct in theii prediction that the cost of living is to go on increas- ing, even though the war ends, then no other subject is of greater conse- quence to 1OO.O00.O00 Americans than the question how to reduce the ex- pense of food distribution.
 Lack of any federal or state market system is the great difficulty in the food problem from the consumers viewpoint as well ss the producers.
 Some New Jersey truck and dairy farmers have tackled the problem with satisfactory results by buying motor trucks and delivering their products to customers direct in thu .ity near est at hand. It looks as if there might be possibilities in this idea for west. ern farmer., near large towns and cities. who have dairy. poultry or gar den truck to sell-anything, in fact, that's eatable.
 How a single farmer 90 miles from New York tork the problem into his own hands aLd has made . profitable dealing with consumers direct, is told by Mir. Collingwood in the Rural New Yorker. who says: He did not get the service he required from the railroads and express companies and few months ago he bought six-ton motor truck. He can make the round trip to hisf customers and get higher price for his vegetables and fruit than If he had to ship them by the usual transportation lines"
 Monmouth county is one of the best potato districts in New Jersey. Recent ly group of farmers formed a CO., operative association for the delivery of potatoes to New York by motor trucks. When their agent telephones them that the supply is short and the market price is high, they can send 300 or 400 barrels of potatoes to the city within three or four hours and get fair price. Under the system of ship ping by carloads the farmer seldom knows just what his produce will bring. The city price may be high when the goods are shipped. but when they ar rive the market may be over supplied.
 These difficulties of transportation and the fiuctuating market prices are what the average farmer Is up against all the time. You constantly hear of cases where farmers have refused to ship produce to the city. letting it rot or feeding it to the hogs, just because they cannot get anything for 1t, and yet those very things that are vast ing on the farm are selling at advanc- ing prices to the city consumer.
 A motortruck service from the farm could bring producer and consumer to- gether for their mutual benefit.

small assortment q cold chiselA punches. hammers, wrenches and tongs, will enable a farmer to do q good deal of blacksmith tinkering and save many trips to town during the busy season, when time is an object.
 A few carpenters tools, such as saws. a square. a couple of good heavy hammers. with a brace and bits and a few wrenches and half a dozen chisels will give a handy farmer enough tools to do extensive repairing.
 Farm machinery and implements are made with standard patterns so that repairs may be ordered for almost any implement manufactured. There are so many different patterns that mistakes may occur in filling an order, so 1t is a good plan to get all such orders on to the factory a long time before the machines are needed. The difference between preparing a good seedbed in the spring or doing a hur ry-up job at the flag end of the seed ing season depends more upon manage ment in this respect than upon hard work or extensive seeding outfits.
 A good implement shed Is valuable acquisition to any farm. because 1t places a farmer in position to attend to little things at the proper time to prevent trouble later.
 In building an implement shed 1t is a good plan to use plenty of concrete in the foundation. and if 1t has a con- crete floor the full size of the build. ing. the machines may be moved about much easier.
 The object of a machinery shed is to protect farm implements and machines from the weather. If machines stand on the ground. moisture comes up from below sufficient at times to rust every iron part of a machine that Is not cov- cred with paint. oil or grease.
 A floor for the purpose of preventing this damage should be made the way a sidewalk is constructed. The ground is laid of in divisions or 5 feet in width by 2-by-4 that Is held in place by stakes. The top of the 2-by4 Is leveled so the concrete when filled in and tamped and properly surfaced with a layer of cement mortar is struck of level with the top of the 2-by4 guide.

TAKES UP LIGHT QUESTION
Accidents Caused by oiarine Head lights Causes Automobile Enei.
 neers to Consider Subject.

In view of the great number of re cent traffic accidents that have been attributed to glaring headlights. the announcement that the Society of Au- tomobile Engineers will soon present a report on the light question that will go a long way toward solving the problem is welcomed by the motoring public. That the question is a much more difficult one than is generally supposed is proved by the fact that the society already has spent more than a year in consids ring remedies for existing conditions.
 To provide safety for night driving 1t Is necessary that the automobile car ry a light which will illuminate the road in front of it for 150 feet. It is equally important for safe driving that the light shall not dazzle pedestrians or drivers proceeding in the opposite direction. To obtain lighting adjust ment that will meet both conditions Is the problem that the society has faced and which it is said to have solved.
 Recommendations based on the so- ciety's findings will soon be presented to the manufacturers and the public. and 1t is expected that these recom- mendations will be incorporated in a model bill to be laid before the various legislatures by the Amerit an Automo- bile association and affiliated orEah:za- tions that are interested in obtaining uniform traffic laws.
 It Is understood that the society will suggest changes in lamp de sign so that no part of the reflected teams of light shall rise more than 42 inches from the ground at a distance of g feet or more ahead of the automobile. This change can be effected with little trou- ble, 1t is said, by the vsrious manu- lecturers.
 In the model traffic br, which the American Automobile association will frame. horse-drawn vehicles will come in for their share of attention and an effort will he made to enforce the light ing of these vehicles after dark in ev- cry part of the country.

INVENTS NEW TRANSMISSION
Hydraulic Principle Applied to Transfer Power to Rear
 Wheels.

A new automobile transmission. de signed to do away with gear-shifting, is the invention of Carlton R. Rad cliffe of New York. The driving and the driven members of the device are inclosed in a fiuid-tight case and the hydraulic principle is employed for the transference of power. The driv- ing member of the mechanism is TO- tated by the engine of the automobile. When this members rotations reach a sufficient speed the force of liquid against the driven member impels it to revolve, transmitting the power to the rear wheels. There are two driven members, one for the forward speeds of the car and the other for the re- verse. Control of the speed of the car is obtained by the shifting of the members of the device.

Helpful Hint. to Motorists.

It is usually necessary, in making motor adjustments, to exercise little patience in order to get the best re suits, for the reason that the effects of the adjustments are not always in- stsntly apparent. In carburetor ad- justments, for instance, the motor nust be given a little time 10 feel the changes made. as the results obtained immediately following the turn of a needle valve or an air valve spring may be misleading. The same is true of lubricating adjustments, only to a much greater extent, for 1t is clear that 1t takes some time for oil previously supplied to work through and for the new rate of supply to settle down to steady work.

 Most farmers do not care to allow the money they spend in farm ma. chinery to N" wasted by the rapid dete- rioration o. this machinery from ex. posture to the clements. Quite often It Is possible to give up a portion of one of the barns to the Implement storage space. The combined horse barn and implement shed is a common and useful structure. There are ad- vantages in building an entirely sep arate structure for housing the farm implements. As a rule there are enough duties to be performed in con- nection with the maintenance of farm machinery to warrant the construc- ton of a separate building. A farm workshop is necessary thing and the implement shed furnishes an excellent location for it.
 The type of structure will depend to certain extent rpon the farm up on which it is located, but there are a few things which should be included In such structure, no matter what its surroundings. The floor construction and the arrangement and size of doors should be given considerable attention. The design illustrated here suggests a structure which is well adapted to the purpose, and the cost of iss erection Is not excessive.
 It is 24 feet in width by 50 feet in length. There is 16foot door In each end for the easy entrance of the larger farm implements. and there is a small

and 1t oas a concrete door to keep the tools end machinery up from the Rround and to keep them dry to pre- vent rusting.
 The ddes and ends are built in the usual say by using a light sill and t-by4 studding covered with drop sid ing 0 clapboards. The roof is con- structed by 2-by-4 rafters with matched roofing boards covered with roll roof ing. The advantage in using matched roofing boards is to prevent the wind from Tapping the roll roofing. Good roofing boards will sometimes double the lasting qualities of the roof.
 Some farmers build . regular repair shop in one end or in the center. The shop Is provided with . blacksmith kit and all the necessary woodworking tools to make small repairs on any farm machine or implement; such work as replacing lost bolts or broken braces, or replacing worn parts with new ones Is done in the winter time, between chore periods.

 Farm machinery and implements depreciate about 10 per cent a year when they are properly housed and kept painted. The loss from leaving tools out in the weather is enormous. An implement shed constructed in this manner is a great convenience in doing repair work.
 All farm machines require overhaul ing in the winter time to put them in . thorough working condition during the busy time in spring. A house of this kind makes it easy to take the machines apart and examine every wheel and every casting, so that the worn parts may be replaced and the whole machine gone over with paint or tinseed oil.
 This implement house has a concrete wall extending all around the outside

NEW INVENTIONS FOR AUTOS

To obtain a powerful searchlight with a comparatively weak current a Frenchman has mounted a number of incandescent lamps on a revolving cir cle, each in turn being illuminated briefly and their combined rays being collected by a reflector.
 An automobile that turns ea,ily Tn narrow streets that two New York men have patented has a wheel at each side and one at each end. the steering mechanism operating the last two simultaneously.
 A sand box for automobiles, like the familiar device on locomotives, to dis tribute sand under the tires to prevent skidding. has been patented by a Massachusetts inventor.
 A French automobile driven by an aerial propeller has proved efficient. it's inventor claims, because the blades of the propeller are shaped like the wings of a bird.
 Tests in Italy of blowing with cleo tric motors have demonstrated that its costs about half as much as If horses had been used and about two thirds as much as steam blowing.

That's Gratitude.

Conrad Keller, justice of the peace, was for 30 years a druggist in Indian apolis, and many years ago, Keller says, when he was single man, he slept in a room in the rear of his drug store.
 Late one night, after he had gone to bed. he heard a knock at the front door, and arose and opened 1t. A man living in the neighborhood entered and asked whether he might use the tele- phone to call the doctor for his little daughter, who was seriously i'll. The

sIiaht-KiIIed Wood Valuable.

The department of agriculture has issued a circular to the effect that ex- periments conducted by the forest serv- Ice of the department to determine the value of chestnut wood that has been blight-killed, show that 1t is just as durable as healthy timber. Posts, poles and ties made from infected timber show that, after three years use, they are as sound as timber not infected. Blight-killed timber. which had sea- soned on the stump for several years, and which had lost its bark, resisted decay better than healthy wood from which the bark was not removed.

Rings That Will Not Leak.

There are several 'ieak proof" rings on the market. They overcome the disadvantage of the slot in he ordi- nary ring and so improve the aompres- sion to a great extent. It would be well to put one at the top of each pis- ton. but complete set would be some what expensive. If the rings are bad ly worn they should certainly be re- placed. Some owners make a practice of replacing broken rings with leak proof rings. By this means the cost Is distributed over a longer time.
