OVERLAND CARS
BEING MADE IN
LARGER NUMBER

The WHY'S Overland company con-
tinues it's remarkable progress in
building Overland A. the sensational
light car which has introduced a new
standard of easy riding comfort in its
exclusive feature of the three point
suspension springs.
Word comes from Toledo that the
production of overland has now
reached 500 cars a day. The various
factory departments are now engaged
in a spirited rivalry to accomplish
their part of the operations, so that
production may reach 500 Overland

ing force of 1900 employees.
This record is further interesting
in view of the fact that there are now
no street cars in Toledo. The citizens
at last voted in favor of an custer
ordinance. The railway company took
the city at its word and sent the street
cars into the state of Michigan. De-

To get them back and forth from
their homes each day, the WHY'S
Overland company has organized a
complete transportation system OF
trucks, auto, jitney BUSES, and other
conveyances. But at that, it means
long walks and very early breakfasts
for thousands of the Overland work
ers. But they get to work every day

FIRE. FIGHTERS
LIKE PNEUMATIC
TIRES ON CARS

Fire departments in nearly fifty of
the largest cities of the country have
been experimenting with big pneu-
matte tires as equipment for their fire
apparatus. The necessity for getting
to fire in hurry makes speed very
essential element and the fire fighters
have welcomed the big pneumatics, be-
cause of the faster rate at which they
permit the truca and engines to travel
The United Safes Tire company re.
ports that in several cities the tests of
the big Nobby cords have reached a
stage where the fire departments are
replacing fully with them as fast as
new tire equipment is needed. The
Nobby cords have a special attraction
for the firemen because their tread
construction gives a traction that
makes it possible for them to stick to
the road without skidding when the
apparatus is travelling at full speed
On account of the fact that some.
times fire fighting equipment stands
in the company houses days at a time,
with the heavy weight of the trucks
resting completely on the tires, it is
| essential that careful attention be paid
| to keeping the tires properly inflated.
Because of the excessive weight the
tires will lose air, no matter how good
the tubes and the valves. Ffremen
| take much pride in keeping their ap-
paratus in first class condition, and
will not find it burdesome to add to
their program of rubbing and polish
ing an occasional test of the air press
ure in the tires.

TRUCKS SOLVE THE
SHIPPING PROBLEM

I'm most every producing center that
is the mecca for buyers, it is not so
much a question of selling the goods,
but when can you make shipment?
says G. II. Reuben, local Kissel dis
tributOr
This is especially true of merchants
and buyers from small centers off the
main line railroads, to whom transpor-
tation has become the big problem
The country merchant is doing pros
porous business these days. His main
trouble is in keeping his shelves from
becoming bare
I'm a certain community, 50 miles
from the nearest railroad transfer
point on the main line Of one of the
big railroad systems, this uncertainty
of receiving their merchandise and
supplies became so acute that the
merchants called a meeting with the
following results:
by having their goods shipped to
the transfer point only they could get
a better rate and a better shipping
schedule. Then instead Of waiting for
/ the goods to be shunted 50 miles ur
the side line to their town, they bought

tery) and find that it weights 1850
times as much as water, it shows that
the battery is fully charged. If how
ever, for instance it weighs 1859 times
as much as water, it shows that the
acid is in the plates and not in the
solution; therefore the battery is dis
charged.
But remember that you cannot
charge the battery by adding acid. The
original acid is still in a discharged

driven back into the solution by charg
ing from an outside source. So you
see if you add ac.d to your battery,

damage.
There are just two things which a
car owner can safely do to a battery

Hundreds of motorists have been
wondering ever since they started
driving car pust what happens when
the battery man tests cars batteries.
All motorists know that a test should
be made frequently, but they do not
know why.
4 The same question has been puzzling
motorists for years. f. L. Gielow,
manager of the local Willard service
station is in position to explain to
motorists just what happens. Follow
ing Is his explanation;
The hydrometer test simply weighs
The battery solution. We take the
weight Of distilled water as a standard
and call it Il. Sulphuric acid weighs
more than water so that when it is
added to water, as II is to make the
battery solution, the solution will nat
urally weigh more than the original
water. IL is this increased weight
which we measure
III the battery is properly charged
the battery solution should weigh one

This weight is called specific gravity
When a battery is discharged, the acid
leaves the solution aud enters the
plates which makes the solution light

three motor trucks, and by operating
them on a joint basis they found they
could get merchandise into their stores
much earlier and oftentimes at lower
cost
"As it was time, and not expense
they wanted to cut down, their trucks
soon paid for themselves, especially as
they were loaned out to farmers when
not employed in the regular transport
work"

portion TO the load carried. A further
reduction resulted in a 10000 truck
with a pay-load capacity of $500
pounds This was followed with the
5000 pound truck now carrying a load
of 1000 pounds.
1t is the belief of company experts
that the end is not yet in sight and
that on heavier type of trucks, pneu-
matte tires will sustain a pay-load
equivalent to the weight of the truck.
1t is not altogether impossible that
eventually theSpay- load will outweigh
the truck.
This is testimonial to the wonder
full performance of the pneumatic cord
tire, which already has achieved a
record of delivering $4,000 miles.

EMERGENCY CABLE REPAIR

In cases of emergency it is possible
to attach a cable to the battery by
stripping back the insulation for two
of three inches, prying apart the
strands and then placing a washer on
each side of the cable after which the
nut is screwed down, holding the cable
firmly in place.

OF course the Ford isn't exactly pos
sessed of the latest lines and it is be-
ginning to wear slightly, but mechani-
cally-why even the aged brass horn
works. The machine is now being
driven on business trips through Ore
gon and Washington by Mccarthy, who
doesn't expect to be in the market for
new Ford for some years to come
since he's kinda got acquainted with
the old one.

REMOVING HEADLIGHT RIMS

When headlight rims have become
stuck in place or are rusted it is pos
sible to remove them by placing
square screw driver on top of the left
rivet and hitting squarely above the
pin with a hammer. This serves to
start the rim turning, and the rest is
easy.

SIX LESSON IN NEW SERIES
June Brides Learn To Cook!
Instead of Pie. WHAT"

The unchanging American dessert
will get away from the inevitable pie
for dessert they. will confer a bless
ing on husbands.
Desserts may be made up in many
attractive forms. Puddings served
either hot or cold, with fruit sauces
which can be made with fresh stew
ed fruit in season, or by using pre-
serves as a basis, will be found pleas
ant change from pie or pastry. Many
desserts can be made of the various
varieties of fruit combined in jellies
and nodded in forms. Frozen des-
serts on the hot summer days are
always welcome, and recipes for end
less varieties are available. Let me
give the following suggestions for
some simple and appetizing desserts:
Apple Fgoat: Rub a sufficient
quantity of stewed apples through a
coarse sieve, or mash them thorough
ly. Sweeten with sugar and flavor
with nutmeg, and add 1 spoonful at
q time to the well-beaten whites of
eggs eggs to each quart of apples
used). Put in some cream and season
with nutmeg at the bottom of the
dish, placing the apples on top. Put
in the oven for 20 minutes, n serve
either hot or cold.
Condo Apricots: Divide and re-
move the kernels from some apricots
and stew in a light strip until done,
together with the rind of a little
lemon, pared thin. Next prepare a
border of rice suited to the dish to
be used and fill the center with the
apricot; pour some whipped cream
over it just before serving with a
sprinkle of pistacio nuts chopped
very fine.
Lemon Dumplings: Mince n pound
of beef-suet very fine. then mix with
1t ~ pound of grated bread crumbs,
u pound of gar and the grated
peel of 1 lemon; stir all tog Aher well
with 2 beaten eggs. Form the prep
arations into dump1ings, and boil
them, tied in cloths, for three-quar-
tiers of an hour.
AIbermaric Pudding: Partially
warm 4 ounces of butter, and beat 1t
until it becomes frothy, then mix in
A ounces of sugar, and the grated
rind of 1 lemon Whip separately
the whites and the yolks of 3 eggs,
and mix all together, sitting in, a lit
tic at a time, u pound of flour, and
continue beating the whole until it is
quite smooth. Butter a pudding basin
and ornament it with r~aisins, cover
paper, and stand it in a saucepan,
with boiling water to about three
times its height, n steam for 1k
hour; when thoroughly cooked. turn
the pudding out of the mould onto a
dish, and serve.
