Law south, as we'll as east, for export
Besides, receipts Of corn here were rela-
lively small. and the forecast was Tor

USE ENGINE FOR BRAKES AND SAVE
 LINING IS ADVICE

Abuse of the brakes on an automobile is characterized by Walter c. Davis, sales
 manager of the George W. Davis Motor Car Co.,, Richmond, Ind. as the most
 careless habit of many motorists. So many fail to realize that descending long steep hills on the brakes alone tends to burn them out and will at least de- crease their braking power His suggestion is that the automobiles learn to use his engine as a brake On ordinary grades this can be done by pushing the throttle to full closed posi- tion, leaving the clutch engaged so that the will drive the engine On exceptionally steep hills. closing the throttle, shifting into second or first speeds and having the car drive the engine will usually prove effective in re- ducng the speed. Should the car con tirlue to descend too rapidly use the brakes,
 ! Cutting off all ignition will also aid in stopping the car under such circum- stances and will have the added advan- tage of helping cool the engine. | According to l.. c. Morrow Of Bunch Morrow Motor Co.,, local distributors for
 the Davis Six. such suggestions for stop ] ping an automobile will save a large
 part of the motorists tpube with his brakes.

l A small campaign to call attention to the necessity of changing oil in motors | every so many hundred miles has been aoVoeated by M. L. Pulcher, vice presi dent and general manager of the Fed eral Motor Truck company, Detroit, Mich
 lie contends that failure to change oil | frequently is the main cause of the de- ! terioration of motors
 l MT. Pulcher points out that there is so much Kerosene in gasoline today that it has tendency to run down past the plstons, get into the lubricating oil and thin it. The kerosene cuts the thin nlm Of oil on the wearing surfaces of the pistons, piston rings and sylinder walls.
 With the film of oil on the Wearing parts of the motor broken, friction. the bugbear of motor efficiency starts in. The pistons work up and down through broken films of oil in a lubricating sub stance that has lost considerable of it's richness and thickness.
 There is little chance of changing the quality of the gasoline. Therefore, to prolong the life of the motor the only thing to do is to change the lubricating oil frequently, possibly every 800 to 1000 miles, he advocates.
 An experiment witnessed by Mir Pulcher recently is instanced by him as proof that it is the non-lubricating qualities of the oil that damages motors.
 motor was brought into shop with almost .015 inches wear. The motor was then run continuously for 60 hours and during this time the oil was changed three times
 When the motor was taken down il showed no wear
 The motor was again put together, oil was taken from an old truck and the motor put through the same 60-hour test without any change of oil. It showed
 O05 inches wear. indicating that it is the non-lubricating qualities of the oil resulting from the kerosene working past the pistons and mixing with it that cause the deterioration of motors.
 The age of a motor may almost be said to depend upon the number of times the oil is changed in it.
