Kerosene and Water Is
Producing Good Results
Said TO Prevent Carbon in Mo-
tors and Adds Much
Power

F. B. Wright, of the Esta Company,
at 1874 Broadway, who has spent 3
great deal of time and study in the
last few years investigating motor
troubles and carbon prevention, states
that kerosene mixed half and half with
water In the Esta carbon eliminator is
giving the best results, not only in pre-
venting carbon, but in giving added
power to the motor. This device goes
on the dash under the hood and intro
duces humidified kerosene vapor into
the mixture A number of experts claim
that 1t is a necessary adjunct to any
car or truck and soon pays for itself in
the better running qualities expert
enced.

Fabric tires for passenger cars:


1t will be noted that in this table the
cord tire has a slightly greater carry
ing capacity than the fabric. The dit
ference between the air pressure of
fully noted.
There has been so much discussion
to the effect that cord tires did not re-
quire as much pressure as fabric tires
that we have found by taking the pres
sure Of number of cord tires selected
at random, that motorists are using
considerably less pressure than they
should.
The result of this is that OCCASION
ally 2 cord tire is injured, due to back
inK tnto 4 curb or striking some other
obstruction with force enoug h to press
