Passenger Autos Make
Increased Saving In

IF the period should suddenly be
turned back 20. say 1900. the task
before could not possibly be accom-
plished. The transportation facilities
Of that and previous years, both for
passengers and freight. would prove
utterly inadequate TO present de-
mands.
The passenger automobile Is re-
ceivinE its due from all thoughtful
people. They know that it has so
bridged distances that the duties OF
life are accomplished IN a fraction OF
the time formerly consumed. This has
made the individual car owner a much
greater producer and there is still
room for improved methods OF utiliz-
ing cars that viii make them even

TOO MUCH OIL

Oil Frequently.

When searbozes give forth a puz-
zling hum. the difficulty is usually
due 90 too much grease and not too
little. II the case is filled too fun Of
light grease or non-nuid oil it may
cause a hum which does no real harm
except that it worries the driver.
Most drivers make two mistakes

writer in Motor Life. They ill it too

low too much time to elapse between
Filings. For satisfactory fabrication

by a noisy gearUoX, the noise being

For modern cars a very heavy oil
such as 600-W tsteam engine cylinder

sometimes this IS not heavy enough
The heavier the lubricant the more IL

worth remembering AT the same
time, a heavy Oil rather than a grease
is almost necessary where any plain

Power Rights in Pennington River

The Stanley Works and the Farm
tngton River Power company, a. Hart
ford organization controlled by the
local factory, have completed q deal
for the rights of land and water on
both sides of the Pennington river at
Windsor. The deal will involve the
expenditure now Of over 100000 and
at a more favorable time, it is the
plan Of the local factory to expend
money in the developing of the wa
ter power on the river. The plant of
the Rainbow Paper company and the
Hartford Paper company's sub-fac-
tory, No. l, are included in the deal.
The land and water privileges at
Rainbow have ben transferred in the
name Of the Stanley Works, while
the Poquonock industry and. land and
water rights are transferred to the
Pennington River Power company.
Rainbow Park, one of the best
known summer parks in this vicinity
Ia included in the transfer as is the
Congress paper and wire mills, for
merly the property of the Vernon
estate, the Rainbow Paper company
also a part of Benjamin Vernon's
property and several other smaller
/ mills. The sale means practically the
Suspension o1 the paper industry III

operations on or about February 10.
The local factory began their pro
gress in this line three years ago,
when at the expiration Of the con-
tract then existing between the Hart
ford Light company and the Farm
ington River Power company, the
Stanley Works built lines from Rain
bow to this city. a distance of 26
miles and has cor tinued since that
tune to receive power in this way.
Since that time the possibilities Of the
