Regular Ford Way.
Ford Company Began On Starter In
1911.

Henry Ford tested the Ford Start
ing and Lighting System on his own
car for one year.
Ten monts ago the Ford Motor
Company was not manufacturing
Electric Starters; today the output
of its Starter Department is greater
than that of any other manufacturer
of electric starting devices in the
world. Its nearest competitor makes
one thousand a day, whereas the
Ford Company's output is fast ap-
preaching the three thousand mark,
two thousand eight hundred and
eighty one already having been man.
ufactured in one Gay.
The Ford starter-and generator,
for it is really two separate units-is
not the result of new idea or of a
sudden decision. More than enght
years ago Mr.. Henry Ford's vision
saw the need, and his electrical en-
gineers were instructed to begin ex-
perimenting. After seven years Of
constant research, which took into
consideration the many different eli
mates in which the Ford car is used,
together with the factors of size and
weight and an adaptibility to guam
tity production, twenty-three trial
jobs were built. These were tested
in many different ways. Mr.. Ford
himself used one on his car for
year. sStill the engineers continued
their experiments and improvements.
Then came the order from the Gov
eminent for $4,000 three-ton tanks,
each one Of which was to be equip
ped with two synchronized Ford
Motors. A starter was essential, so
the one now being installed on Ford
car was evolved. But, only one
starter and generator was used to
turn over the two Ford motors in
each tank. January first 1919 the
Ford Motor Company began equip
ping enclosed cars with this new
starting and lighting system. Ford
engineers say that although the en-
tire system-Starter and Generator
weighs only thirty-one pounds, il
produces a higher torque output
constant rotary notion pound for
pound, than any other system on the
market.
When the department for building
the Starting and Lighting Systems
first began production, fifty hours
labor was charged to each unit, but
now that machinery and equipment
have been installed, the time per
unit if four hours. Two huge arma-
ture impregnating ovens have been
installed, each with a capacity Of
The central record. (Lancaster, Ky.) 18??-current, 1919-12-11

100 every eight hours. In these
ovens the armatures are dried, soak
ed in varnish and dried again. Eight
hours time is required for this one
operation.
The power from the starter to the
motor is applied through the well
known Bendix drive, which automati-
cally engages the starter and then,
once the motor is started, the starter
Immediately disengages. 1t is equip
ped with oilless bearings and needs
practically no attention.
Within another thirty days or six
weeks, the Ford Company expects to
be making enough starters so that
every Ford car will be equipped with
the new Electric Starting and Light
ing System.

NEED EXPRESS
OFFICE UPTOWN
BUSINESS OF MARYVILLE
SHOULD GET BETTER SERVICE
ON PART OF COMPANY.
DELIVERY WAGON OPERATED
BY COMPANY WOULD MAKE
SERVICE BETTER EVERY DAY

One thing the business men of
Maryville should join in pulling fol
is an uptown express office or de-
livery wagon operated by the express
company to take care of the express
business coming into and going out
of Maryville. The present inconve-
nience of getting express from the
depot and sending it to the depot is
felt by all of the business men of
Maryville. An uptown express office
would to a certain extent relieve the
present situation, but a delivery wa
gon or truck, operated by the express
people, making periodicals trips thru
the city, would be an even better
proposition.
Maryville business houses are en-
titled to better express service, both
for incoming and outgoing express,
and the merchants and manufactur-
ers would do we'll to get together to
go after some such improvement as
this. MaryVille has no business or
ganization which can handle this pro-
position, but by concerted effort on
the part of the business men this
improvement can be made.
Boost it, and request will be made
of the officials to add this feature to
local express service.

STOCKER CATTLE SALE.

Did it ever occur to you that the

and all we can produce, if we Just
let it be known that we have the
real products? Too often we fail

Just because we do not let the buy
ers know what we have for sale. We
are putting on a Stocker and Feeder
Cattle Sale October 1st. We will
bunch the cattle of the county.
grade it where desirable and practic-
able, and let the outside world know
what we have to offer Buyers will
come to see 500 head that would not
come to look at few individual lots.
We can advertise much more widely.
consequently the cattle will bring
more money to the raisers. mThere
is no reason why this sale cannot be
made a great annual sales day for
the county, where buyers and sellers
will get together and do business on
a scale that will mean much to the
cattle interests of the county. This
sale is not limited to the man who
has big herds of high grade cattle.
1t is for every farmer who has as
many as one steer or heifer which
he wishes to sell. The man with
one steer will get as much per pound
as the man with 25 or 100 steers of
the same grade and condition. This
could not prevail except in CO.
operative sale. This is why the
small herds should be listed as well
as the large ones in this sale. Had
you thought that this means that
we will bring buyers to bid on your
three or four head just the same as
on the SO or rs of your neighbor?
I am publishing the rules of the sale
that every cattleman may know just
what we are attempting to do. We
must know, however within the next
few days whether you have cattle to
put in and the size, number and
grade of the cattle you enter, else
no provisions will be made for your
stock in the pens. If you have cat
tie to list either call or see your
couty agent, or Mr.. w. L. Russell,
or Mr.. H. R. Duncan, who are on
the committee on rules of the sale.

LIGHTNING DOES
QUEER THINGS

During the hard storm Sunday
night, J. N. McBrayer, who resides

ly awakened by the storm, and he
awoke he said he thought he could
see the lightning running down the
chimney of his home, and thought
the chimney had been struck. He
went out onto the porch, when the
rain ceased, and made Investigation
of damages done, but could see no
results Of the flash. Monday morning
however, the family discovered that
a plank had been torn from the
porch floor, and two planks torn
from the ice box on the porch. Near
by, a stove pipe joint was sitting.
On one side of this joint was hole
which appeared as if 38 shot had
gone through it. The tin showed
signs of having melted. On the oppo-
site side were three small holes. The
explanation is that the lightning pas
sed thru this stove joint. The joint
was exhibited to several people up
town Tuesday. On either side where
the holes had been made evidences
of melting tin could be seen.

PIG CLUB PIGS FOR
HAWKINS COUNTY

Mr.. M. V. Roger, county agent
for Hawkins county paid a visit to
Blount county last week to look
over some pigs for his club boys. Mr..
L. A. Richardson. Assistant Animal
Husbandryman of the Division. of
Extension came with him. They
looked through the Poland China
Herds of Messrs. Hutton, Orr, Brew
er, Costner and Morton. Upon leav-
ing they asked that we send them
over 10 head of pigs which they had
selected from those herds. OF
course they were just pigs they
wanted, good registered pigs. We
sent them and they are sending in
return $477.50 to pay for said pigs
1t is a credit to Blount county to be
able to furnish pure bred pigs tc
other counties for pig club work
Mr.. Sam Costner's boy was pig
club boy last year and four of the
pigs from his Pig Club gilt brought
him $100-were sold cheap at that
We will hear of more of our boys
doing things like that in the future

IS SCHOOLS
NOT OPENED
SHORTAGE OF TWENTY-FIVE
TEACHERS CAUSES MANY
CHILDREN TO BE IDLE.
LONGER TERMS AND BETTER
SALARIES WILL HELP RE-
- LIEVE THE SITUATION.

Fifteen schools in Blount county
We're not in operation Monday on
account of the shortage of twenty
two teachers. Thus it will be seen
that hundreds of children are not in
should be, because they have no
teacher.
The situation confronting Blount
county is also faced by some other
counties. Blount County must solve
her own problem. 1t would seem that
the quickest way to solve the pre-
sent problem, is for the county to ap-
propriate sufficient funds for the op-
Grafton of the schools at least eight
months in the year, and nine or ten
months would be better. Make the
terms longer, and then pay higher
salaries. The term in the county is
now so short and salaries so low that
teachers are not attracted here. In
fact, there is little encouragement
for young men and women to try to
teach. Other counties which have lon
ger terms and larger salaries draw
teachers to them.
