The adjustment Of the connecting
rod bearings Is one Of the most com
mon repair jobs on an automobile en-
gine- Probably the CHIEF reason why
these bearings wear faster than the
others is that they are not fabricated
properly under all conditions. The
system described below has given very
good results and has almost elimI-
mated connecting-rod bearing trouble.
Most Of the oil delivered to the main
bearings escapes the ends and flows
along the crank webs. and is finally
thrown on by centrifugal force. II
small scuppers are placed at the ends
Of the crank-pins this oil will be
caught and may be carried through
the pin TO the bearing.
In the right-hand illustration one
throw OF the crank-shaft is shown
with the scupper In place. The oil
leads are indicated by dotted lines.
The radial hole should be drilled first,
and should extend TO the center OF the
pin. Then a hole should be drilled
through the center Of the pin until

or copper should be used. The end Of
the shaft should be smoothed slightly,
and then the scupper riveted or

carefully balanced In high-speed
motors, so care should be used not to
change the balance any more than
necessary.
Before installing such q system a
careful inspection should be made, to
make sure that there Is room for the

SUCCESS OF RURAL ROUTES
Important Factors Which Must Bs
Given Consideration In Motor
Transportation.

prepared BY tho United States Depart.
ment Of Agricuiturej
There are four important factors
which must be given consideration BY
the beginner In the field Of rural mo-
tor transportation. These four fac
tors are: ~ The volume Of farm
products produced along the contem.
plated route; (2) the volume Of mis-
cellnneous hauling which could be Sc
cured to supplement regular loads; (3)
competition from other carriers which
would be encountered; az the charac.
ter Of the highways over which the
trucks must run. II may safely be
said that the features mentioned
above viii ultimately determine the
success or failure OF any rural route.

you may be making speeds which
would be terrific in an auto--14O miles

or more you have no realization of
