CHANGING FROM HIGH TO SECOND SPEED

B. F. asks: Is there any remedy for the difficulty have in changing from high gear to second speed on hard hills, which are too steep to be taken on high? As it is now, I can not get into second speed until the car has practically stopped moving and the result is that I generally have to let it stop entirely and fin ish ascending the grade on low.
 Answer: This is the change of gear which generally gives the most trouble, but we think that you will be able to accomplish it successfully if you proceed as follows: Release the clutch, throw gear lever from high to neutral position, let in the clutch, speed up the engine slightly with the accelerator, release the clutch, throw gear lever into second speed position and engage clutch The success of the operation depends upon speeding the engine to the required extent, thus bringing the counter shaft gear to a speed corresponding to that at which its mate is being driven by the car and little practice is required to do this correctly. While there are a number of separate acts

BATTERY DOES NOT RECEIVE
 CHARGE

H. w. writes: The ammeter on my car shows no charging current no matter what the engine speed and the battery is nearly run down, what is wrong?
 Answer: Either the generator is not in condition to deliver current or the. relay does not connect it to the battery, when it should do so. With the engine running, connect a lamp fthe voltage you use, one of it's ter minals to the ground and the other to the generator connection from which current should flow to the battery. If the lamp lights the generator is working properly and vice versa. If the former, expose the relay to view and, with the engine at fair rate of speed, bring the contacts of the relay together with the fingers. This should cause charging to commence and you may be able to see what is wrong with the relay. It may be that the relay armature works hard or the

GO FAR ON CORD TIRES

A performance which emphasizes the importance of cord tire equip ment on journeys of more than ordi- nary length is the one which is re- ported by w. J. and H. c. Emerick, of Bellefante, Pa. These two gentle men with their families have just completed trip to San Francisco, af- ter journey of 50 days. Upon their of their Goodyear cord tires still con- tained Pennsylvania air, and the fourth had travelled from Indiana without attention. In that state a tire was changed on account of a leaky tube. After this jaunt of 3,546 miles the tires were still in good condition. No mechanical trouble was experience ed beyond the breaking of fan belt.

Woods Quits Post
 On Service Bureau

Memphis, Tenn, Sept. 2O.-Ar- thur Woods, former police commits sioner of New York, and assistant to the secretary of war;, stationed at Chicago in charge of the work of finding employment for discharged soldiers, has resigned effective to- morrow and will be succeeded by Lieut.-Col. M. Smith, according to letter received today by Halbert B. Phillips, local newspaper man and member from this sestion of the ad- visory committee which has been as- sisting in finding jobs for veterans.
 MT. Wood in his letter explained his resignation by asserting that "the army is now practically demo- bilized and the number of discharged service men out of employment has been reduced to comparatively small number" while the American Legion is adding itself to the other agencies which have been looking after the welfare of the discharged men, and is taking up the work in such way that I belive it will be very effective. :"

Toulouse Gander.

Toulouse, Embden, Chinese, and Afri-
of geese in this country, the first two
greatly leading the other breeds. All
economic breeds of geese are kept pri-
mariIy for the production of flesh
and feathers and although their eggs
are occasionally used for culinary pur-
poses on the farm there is no demand
for them for food purposes in the mar
ketS.
The Toulouse, the largest of the
standard breeds of geese, is a good
layer, producing from 20 to 30 eggs
year, is docile, grows rapidly, and
makes a good market bird. However,
it's dark pinfeathers make it slightly
less attractive market goose than the
Embden.
The Embden. a large, white goose,
slightly smaller and with somewhat
longer legs than the Toulouse, is only
fair layer and is usually less pro-
life than the Toulouse. This breed
has white pinfeathers, is rapid grow
er, and natures early.
| The African, gray goose with a
| distinct brown shade, about the size
of the Embden, is a good layer and
makes a good market goose, although
it has the Objectionable dark pin
feathers 1t is a rapid grower and
natures early.
There are two standard varieties of
Chinese geese, the brown and the
white. Both varieties mature early
and are said to be prolific layers and
rapid growers, but shy and rather diff
cult to handle.
The wild goose is bred to some ex-
tent in captivity, and the young are
sold to hunters to use as decoys. The
wild gander is used to cross with
either the common or the purebred
goose, producing the so-called Mongrel
goose. This Mongrel goose is highly
priced as a market goose, but is sterile
and cannot be bred.
The Egyptian goose is a small
brightly-colored goose kept for orna
mental purposes and rarely seen in
this country. 1t resembles the wil(
goose in shape and weighs two pounds
less in each class.

POULTPYNOTEs
(NWkSSs ~ 9aaao

Do not overcrowd the houses, brood
coops, brooder or colony coops.
Everything must be kept clean in
warm weather to keep vermin down.
Turkey hens usually lay about fif-
teen eggs before beginning to get
broody.
Poultry can endure warm weather
just as well as they can freezing
weather.
In rainy cold weather young chicks
should be kept where it is dry and
warm.
Put the brooder for early little chicks
in dry, sunny clean place where there
are no lice or mites.
1t doesn't pay to try to rear the very
early chicks in outdoor breeders un-
less those breeders are under she'd.
Soft-shelled eggs are often caused
by the fowls being confined, becoming
overfat, and from lack of mineral mat
ter.
| Be sure that the windows in the
south side of the poultry house are
wide open on all bright, sunny days to
let il the health-giving pure air.

Mr.. Sprouse Abandons Literature at
an Early Hour in the Morning.
After thrashing about in his bed for
seven sleepless hours, Barnes arose
and gloomily breakfasted alone. He
was not discouraged over his failure
to arrive at anything tangible in the
shape of plan of action. 1t was in
conceivable that he should not be able
in very short order to bring about the
release Of the fair guest of Green
Fancy. There was not the slightest
doubt in his mind that international
affairs of considerable Importance
were involved and that the agents OPP
Grating at Green Fancy were under
definite orders.
Mr.. Sprouse came into the dining
room as he was taking his last swal-
low of coffee.
"Ah, good morning." was the bland
little mans greeting. up with the
lark, see. Mind if 1 sit down here
and have my eggs?' He pulled out a
chair opposite Barnes and coolly sat
down at the table.

STRIKING Similarity.

Tom P. Morgan loves to tell the old
story of the farmer who tore good
deal of good clothing and went to
much trouble to catch a perfectly
wretched, decrepit old tramp who had
been sleeping in the farmers haymow.
'Now," yelled the farmer in triumph
art outburst. NOW I've got We" Eyes"
whined the harmless old wreck "and
a great git you got" This story is
brought to mind by the report in yes
terdays news that the Esthonian and
Finnish troops had crowned their her
culean efforts by the capture Of Petro-
grad.-Kansas City Star.
