THE WOMAN'S CLUB.
e. S. EsteI, Of. Waterloo, Addresses
Club Women on Milk as Food.

StuO w OIIiSI' S'' WIN az WV
Interesting facts on milk from the
producers and consumers standpoints
were given by E. S. Estel Of Water
loo, state dairy expert, at the meeting
Of the Woman's Club held Wednesday
afternoon in Shrubs hall.
Dr.. o. P. Thompson, Of Ames, was

talked on his subject, Milk as a
Human Food" Paul C. Crowley. OF
Des Moines, appeared in DR.. Thomp-
sons place and told of the work that
the state food and dairy commission
is doing.
Mr.. Estel's talk was illustrated with
slides so that the audience had very
clear understanding Of the subject. In
introducing his subject Mr. Estel said
that milk was one of the most import
ant foods, and his slides showed all
of it's food values, also a comparison
with other foods Of the same vale.
Among the interesting facts was
comparison of the mich COW with the
beef animal both weighing the same.
which showed that the mich cow gave
five times as many pounds of food.
Another interesting comparison was
the price of a quart Of milk with other
foods having the same food value,
which showed that milk is much the

cheaper food. Other facts brought
out by Mr.. Estel were that the COW
produced more food for one hundred
pounds Of feed than any other animal
on the farm, and that various breeds
gives different values Of influx. In
speaking from the producers stand
paint Mr.. Estel especially emphasized
the care Of the animals and their
quarters showing how it Is best done
with views Of barns, both sanitary ana
unsanitary, and other machinery USED
in the care Of the milk. In conclusion
Mr.. Estel said that the responsibility
lay not only with the producer but
also with the consumer.

Ra!pn De Palma:
 I have an old Hudson car and recently a noise of a peculiar grinding type has begun in the transmission, whenever the speed passes 15 miles an hour in high. l have tried using different lubricants, graphite, fibre graphite, etc., without stopping it. Can you help me?-Nor- man H. w.
 If the noise is a steady hum there is probably nothing wrong with the gears, as a steady hum is given out by nearly all rear axles. If the noise has stresses that is intervals of sound, the gears may be out of round. The gears may be out of shape or they may simply not be run hing true This may be due to improper adjustment or because the gears have been permitted to operate in oil contain ing metal particles. Some of the teeth may have high spots. The thrust bear ing may be worn. The best cure is to have the gears removed and trued up in the shop, as it is almost impossible to de- tect out of round gears in the case Be- fore doing this it might be well to drain the case and flush it out with kerosene and then fill it with fresh lubricant This may be the whole cause of trouble and you will, therefore. avoid having the unit taken down.

PISTON SLAP
Ralph De Palma {:

Ralph De Palma:
 I am getting a piston slap in my four cylinder motor. This sound begins after the motor is warmed up and is under load and stops if I close the throttle. Hill climbing brings out the slap immediately How can I cure it? This car is new this year and I haven't run 5000 miles, D. B. H.
 A piston slap is due to loose piston worn cylinder or to the motors being run with the spark too far advanced, or it may be caused by overlooking the en- zine. The sound is caused by the piston striking against the side of the cylinder This sound will be heard if the throttle is opened wide suddenly, when the car is travelling slowly in high gear. If the spark is advanced too far when the en- zine is pulling hard on a hill the slap will be heard In your case the piston is not likely to be loose, nor would your cylinder be worn after such brief opera tion. Perhaps the sound is a valve slap or a spark knock. Grinding the valves will cure a5valve slap, or if the stem is bert, you can have it strengthened or get a new one.

CONCRETE GARAGE

Ralph De Palma:
 l am going to build a private garage in the spring, and I want you to advise me as to the best material to use to get fireproof building.-K. Schrydor
 Concrete is the best material and the most nearly fireproof of which to build a garage. A very good flooring is a combination of hollow tile and concrete The tiles are laid in rows about five inches apart and concrete is set between rows, witE reinforcement of plain round rod. The air spaces in the tiles act as a kind of insulation against heat and cold.

CARBURETOR LEAKS

Ralph De Palma:
 The carburetor on my 1914 Ford car is leaking quite badly. Can you tell me the cause and how to fix it?-Ficklen. The leaking may be caused by conden- sation in the intake manifold, by the fact that the float is sticking or is gaso- line-logged or by an improperly seating valve. Also there may be something wrong with the fuel line to the carbu- retor. My advice to you is to take the instrument to the service station and have the trouble diagnosed and reme- died by an expert

FIXED SPARK IGNITION


 What are the general characteristics of a fixed spark ignition system? What are it's advanta ges?-W. H. F.
 It is claimed by certain engineers that for small engines, those of say less than 30 horse power, the fixed spark ignition system is best. With this type, which re- quires fewer parts than the other, the driver does not have to pay any attention to lis spark and this simplifcation of the operation of driving is undoubtedly a convenience. On the other hand, it is claimed that with fixed spark, maxi mum efficiency of the engine Is practi- cally never obtained. With variable spark

You may know it already, but it will
bear repetition now when It is i'm
portant that everybody eat literally of
the big potato crop; that potatoes are
an excellent food for your body; that
they are good fuel; that one medium
sized potato gives you as much starch
as two slices of bread; that, like other
vegetables, they give you salts which
you need to build and renew all the
parts of your body and keep it In order.
Potatoes furnish starch which burns
