Magnetic Thrives on
Little Attention
and Less Oil
By William Fl. Stewart, .Jr.

Ordinarily the magnetic requires very
little attention. About seven parts
neglect and one part intelligent clean
ing and oiling are all that is necessary.
The following points should be helpful:
Keep the magnetic perfectly dry at
all times. using one drop of oil in each
bearing once a week, and cleaning dis
tributer. circuit brealler and collector
ring once month.
BY one drop of oil is meant Just one
drop Of oil-no more-not full squirt
Of oil from an oil can. The magnetic
must be kept dry, as moisture causes
it to miss explosions by short circuit
ing the distributor. The dust which
accumulates on the outside and inside
OF the distributor is prolific source
Of trouble, as it may easily become
bridge for the current and so produce
an annoying short circuit. Of course
any brushes that are worn out or
broken should be replaced Immediately.
Al the same time do not neglect the
circuit breaker, as the platinum points
become corroded by the incessant
rent passes with difficulty, or not at
all. This is easily remedied by passing
piece OF very line sandpaper between
the points, allowing them to spring to-
Gether 10 give the pressure necessary.
1t is not advisable for the novice to
use file, as there is danger Of filing
the points uneVenly.
1t might be we'll at the same time to
try the gap between the points to
81 El,
gauge provided by the manufacturer
on the side Of the magnetic wrench
should pass freely through the gap,
Just touching the sides gently. Then
remove the collector brush ard get q
good look at the collector ring. II it
has become covered with dirt, oil and
carbon dust these should be removed
with cloth dipped in gasolene or al
cohol.
If the magnetic fails to deliver cur
rent at any time the above points
should be gone over, as the most fire.
Quent causes of failure may be found
restored in its original strength it
Will be necessary to remove the mag
neto or at least to loosen it from the
driving shaft This should never be
attempted unless you are perfectly
sure of your ability to restore it prop
erly. But this is not as difficult as it
may seem.
Set No. cylinder on firing dead
centre, which means that the piston
must be at the top of it's movement
and both valves closed. This is best
obtained by watching the exhaust
valve of the last cylinder-No. 4 on a
4-cylinder engine or No. on g.
cylinder engine. Crank slowly, By
hand, watching the exhaust valve of
this last cylinder open and close. Be
fore it has entirely closed look for
dead centre mark on fywheel and put
it under pointer or in line with centre
of cylinder. Now mark the coupling
with a file or prick punch so that it
may be replaced exactly as it was.

and Stockholm, to Franklin Furnace,
after which our course changes and
takes southeasterly direction The
road is through Ogdensburg and Sparta
10 Woodport, at the head of Lake
Hopatcong. continuing near this beau
tlful body of water through Hurd and
Arlington.
After Kenvil, turn cast and pass
through Dover and Rockaway. Shortly

Reports for Up State,
New England and the
Western Roads

Reports recently received at the
touring bureau of the American Auto
bile Association, at sol Fifth Avenue,
cover MANY of the principal trunk
routes in this and neighboring states.
New York State
The main route to Plattsburg and
the Adirondacks is all macadam and is
in very good condition at this time
Those who run to Albany via the west
side of the Hudson River will need to
take a short dctour between Athens
and Coxsackie, but this is all right
except in very wet weather. Some re-
pair work is in progress between
Poughkeepsie and Albany along the
road has not been closed and traffic
will not be impeded to any extent. Re
pair work is also in progress at diff
ferent points along the trunk lines
from Albany to Buffalo and occasional
short detours are necessary. In the
main, however, this road is in good
condition practically throughout.
The most direct route to Buffalo at
the present time is that via Bingham
ton, Elmira and Watkins. A detour is
still necessary between Goshen and
Chester, but this Is over direct roao
all the way.
The road between Windsor and
Ringhamton is also under construc-
ton, and motorists are advised to fol
low the alternate via Harpursville
over state macadam throughout.
Another rough stretch will be found
between Binghamton and Ow1go, but
with these exceptions the trunk route
is now in very good condition all the
way.
Tourists who are bound for Coopers-
town will find an excellent state road
all the way from Kingston through the
Catskills to Oneonta. A short stretch
Of two or three miles of rough road
will be found at Phmnicia, but this will
not cause any serious inconvenience.

tional Road all the way to Indianapolis
via Cumberland, Uniontown, Wheeling,
GAINESVILLE, Columbus and Dayton. The
road is mostly hardsurfaced EXCEPT
the stretch between Wheeling and
GAINESVILLE. Much road construction is
now in progress between those points
and there is one long and poor detour
between New Concord and GAINESVILLE
which is over twenty miles in length
In dry weather this is quite passable,
but should certainly be avoided after
heavy rams.
The best way to reach Chicago from
indianapolis is over the route via
Logansport and Valparaiso. This is
slightly longer than the more direct
route via Lafayette and Frankfort but
is preferable, as the latter has been
badly cut up by motor trucks.
