whether the battery is in use, or lay
ing idle. This is directly opposite to
the dea entertained by most battery
owners, most Of them entertaining
the idea that battery not in use is
resting, and not deteriorating, when
as a-matter a Of fact a battery gen.
orally deteriorates faster when not in
active use than when it is actively
and properly used.
Left alone battery gradually dis
charges itself, that is, it loses its
charge, and the acid that was driv-
en- out of the plates during the nor
NAL charge gradually goes back in
to the plates resulting in injury to
the battery when left in the plates
for any length of time, such as dur
ing an entire winter.
Thus it is clearly seen that to
prevent acid injury to battery
plates, battery should be kept nor
mally charged at all times, there
fore the necessity for, taking bat
terry off the car during the winter,
and having it stored and charged at
regular intervals.
There seems to be two we'll de-
fined ways of caring for storage
batteries over winter. The one
most commonly used is called "wet
the battery just as it is at regular
intervals, and adding pure distilled
water as needed. IN
The second method is called "dry
storage" and while not used to any
great extent is by far the best and
proper method of winter storing any
batter that has been in use for
year, or over. Except Threaded
Rubber Insulated Batteries.) !.
In this method of storing the bat
terry is fully charged to drive the
acid out of the plates, then all acid
is removed from the battery, and the
pure water used in its place, the
battery then dischare eed, taken apart
and the plates stored til spring.
when the battery is re-assembled,
with new insulation and the new
acid solution then given q slow re-
forming charge until the gravity
reaches 1880 and the cell voltage
reaches "a per cell. This latter
method of winter storage, frequent
ly adds a year or more to the life
and usefulness of a battery. Dur
ing the months that the plates are
out Of the. solution and the battery
remains unassembled, the plates are
at rest, there being no acid left in
them to produce chemical action.

T. c. I. COMPANY WILL il N CREASE CAPACITY |OF FERTILIZER PLANT
From One Thousand to Five Thousand
 and Six Thousand Tons Per Month Plant Is to Be Enlarged

Extensions and Improvements to the fertilizer plant of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad company at Ensley are nearing completion and by the early part of January it's capacity will have been increased several fold Fertilizers made at this plant during the last sev- eral years are said to be among the best on the market.
 The present capacity of the plant is about 1000 tons month and when the additional equipment is put in operation this will be increased to between 5000 and 5000 tons month.
 By the process in use at the Ensley plant a high grade fertilizer is made of Slag produced in the open hearth fur mace in the duplex process of manufac- turing steel. The company has issued 8 pamphlet explaining how the fertilizer is made and it's constituent parts. The opinion seems to prevail that slag taken from open hearth and blast furnaces was used in making the duplex basis phos- phate, the name given the fertilizer and to correct this impression the company states in it's pamphlet that duplex basic phosphate is not ordinary open hearth furnace slag, neither is it blast furnace slag, and it should not be confused with these products, the ordinary open hedrth slag being of little value and the blast furnace slag of practically no value as plant food.'

 c. T. Weaver and. w. H. MeserQle, local expert mechanics. have been se- cured and will talk on this occasion on the ignition of a car. This sub ject should be most interesting one to automobile owners and drivers as very much automobile trouble Is caused by the ignition system.
 The school last week was most in- teresting as the various members re- lated trouble they had had on numer ous occasions and the instructors ex- plained what caused 1t and told them how to remedy the trouble should 1t occur again. They told the drivers sew eral things to do in case of a broken spring to save them from being pulled in and paying bill for 1t.

Thirteen-ROund Bout
 in Recorders Court

Jedge Hennery Martin of the re- corder's court will act as host to quite a notable gathering next Friday when the city fathers and the heads of the Birmingham Rail- way, Light and Power company mix up in 13-round legal bout over the street car ordinances, which have thus far arrested only the casual attention of optimistic commuters, who, yenrning for bef- ter traction service. have been forced to content themselves with daily perusals of Forney John- ston's legal phraseology as con- tained in the recent legislation.
 Ringside seats for the big show will probably be in demand, as the "bill bOreds' have anticipated 1t for several weeks.
 Thirteen warrants charging viO- lations of many sections of the new ordinances have been dOcketed against the company, but owing to the illness of President Pevear and other causes the matter has been postponed from time to time.

DUFFY THINKS COX

 POSSIBILITY IN 1920
Chairman Ohio Industrial Commission Believes Gov ernOr Will Be Favor
 ably Considered

In the opinion of Thomas J. Duffy chairman of the Ohio Industrial commits sion, which.is charged with the admins- law of that state. Gov. James M. Cox is a strong probability for the democratic nomination for President in 1920
 Governor Cox is one of the big men of the country" said MT. Duffy, who came to Birmingham yesterday to de- liver lecture before the civic forum on the Ohio workmen's compensation law He was elected governor of Ohio in November, defeating his republican op- ponent by about 10000 majority, whereas the balance of the republican ticket was elected
 Governor Cox is very able man and has caused more constructive legislation to be put on the statute books of Ohio than any other governor in recent years"
 Governor Cox was elected governor of Ohio in 1912. was defeated by Gov ernor Willis in 1914 and defeated Gov ernor Willis in 1916 and again in 1918. He is the publisher and editor of two snfluential papers, one at Dayton an6 the other at Springfield, Ohio. It wa: mainly through his instrumentality tha, the Workmen's compensation act wal written into the laws of that. state.
 Ohio has come to be one of the really doubtful states in recent years in con trast to its consistently large republican majorities usually rolled up in pres dential years prior to the beginning o the present century. Only one repub lican has been elected governor of tha state since l904-Governor Willis in 19l4- and her electoral votes have been cas, for democrat in each of the last tws presidential elections.
 With his home state in the doubtful column and his record of three time elected governor out of four races in si. years Governor Cox is expected to hay. commanding influence when the mex democratic national convention is held
