Q.-I have a 1919 E. N. F. which has
| been run 1900 miles. II used to give sew
enteen to eighteen miles per gallon Of gas.
but get only thirteen now. There is no
dash adjustment and II never pulls quite
the same under different temperatures. A
| number of experts have failed to better IL.
One man raised the float to the highest
| possible point, since which II runs about
| FIVE miles per gallon less. Could you give
me the cost Of a Rayfeld carburetor?
| 3. A. p.
Al would consider thirteen miles
per gallon fairly good considering
the poor gas. Why raise the float
level IL the mileage is already poor?
II the picking up was poor the rails
ing of the level might help 1t. Did
| IL? You will have to write to the
Rayheld Company, Chicago, for the
cost. since prices change so frequent
ly, l cannot keep track of them.
Q.-PIease tell me why tubes are pInched.
I have had much trouble with mine, though
exercising great care in mounting them.
z. B.
| A-Tube pinches are due to: Poor
| flaps, no flaps, flaps OF wrong size,
tubes of wrong size, or flaps not prop
erly put in place when tires are
mounted.
The trouble is not in the tire un-
less you run badly debated.
| Q.-I have driven my Chevrolet roadster
| $1,000 miles and now find IL lacks power
| on high and has a knock. Removing the
| carbon has not helped much I used John
sons carbon remover several times and it
ran fine for a time but then weakened
again. How about it? F. ]. L.
An all probability wear has set
in and naturally so after so much
running of your car. You probably
need new pistons and rings fitted and
cylinders reground.
! Owe have been having trouble with a
Hudson and / attribute IL to a mechanical
disarrangement of the rear wheels We
have had the car in the hands OF several
mechanics and they claim the wheels re-
{ volve true, saying our trouble was in poor
tires. We have tried the best guaranteed
tires on the market but after going a few
hundred miles they have worn out-wear-
ing out uniformly along the tread. Trust
ing to have q prescription for the trouble.
1 II. II. B.
] A-The excuse offered by the me-
chanic is that which is usually offered
by the man who cannot locate and
cure the trouble. Rear wheels. as
well as front, can run out of align
ment, due to worn wheel bearings,
, bent axle shafts. spring axle housing.
! etc. II the wheels run true you
should get good mileage out of tires.
Try taking the car to a Hudson serv-
, ice station and also to a tire station
: for examination.
Q-I have long read your advice and
now want to ask you regarding the pur-
chase Of a secondhand car I do not
know anything about a car would like to
have your advice on what to buy. l have
looked at several. but don't know which
to take. d. y.
A.-The goodness and value OF
! second hand car is as good as the
dealer who sells 1t. Mentioning what
| make to buy will not help you a bit
to decide on the condition of the car
and its value for the money. Go to a
dealer with reputation and none of
the obscure kind unless you have alb
solute faith in the latter's integrity.

 As the white intrusive and the min eralization has a dip toward the shaft, 1t may be possible that it may be in tersected before the 1000 level is reached, and it is expected that this white intrusive will lead us, as it has always done soon or later in the United Verde and United Verde Extension mines to rich ore body.

 The shaft is now down s97 feet and an average of five feet per day is being made in the sinking. It is bottomed in much softer formation than was obtained last week, the rock being a schist containing much pyrites and oc- 1 casional evidences of chalcopyrite.

rotary of StateW. T. Dougherty in re-
gard to violations of the law providing
that two automobile plates must be
displayed on motor vehicles:
l am quoting below copy of opinion
rendered by the assistant attorney

terest to you in view of the fact that
there have been reported many viola
tons of the law providing for the dis
play of two automobile plates on mo-

ain response to your communication
of the Sth inst. we beg to advise you
that the operation of an automobile
within the state of Idaho which does
not have a number plate displayed on
both front and rear of the car is a
clear violation of the law. Offenders
should be arrested by local peace Off

anv other provision of the act. The
enforcement of this provision is no
more the duty of the assessor than
that of any other citizen. he, OF
course, has right to call upon any
