BE sure your spark plugs are clean

Don't allow wiring to become wet

Watch your valve stems lest they

Low Upkeep Expense Explains

Harry W. Scott.

The added expense in the cost Of run
ming automobiles, is one reason for the
large increase in the sale Of bicycles
and motorcycles, says Harry W. Scott,
local Harley Davidson dealer.
"Many business men, besides the
many hundreds who work in the stores,
shops, mills and on the farm, find that
it is practically impossible to do with
out a bicycle, as the maintenance ex-
pense is SO low. II means q big saving

also a great help in building up one s

Mr.. Scott. cit was found that more
than a reasonable percentage of young
men were not in as fit a physical condi-

bicycle would have eliminated u large

Of the deficient were afflicted.

CURED to replace parts.
Don't Il tractor over bitches and
rough places full speed; q little slowing
down may save a break.
BE sure your spark plugs are tight
and not cracked.
When taking off any gears be sure
to mark them so they can be replaced
in exactly the same position.
Remember that it is the empty tank
like the unloaded gun that is most
dangerous. 1t is impossible to explode
gasoline liquid. but a tank which is
empty will be full of air mixed with a
certain amount Of gasoline vapor,
which is very explosive and will pillow
the tank into fragments if ignited.
Short circuits cause trouble. Inspect
your wires occasionally.
If water is changed on a hot motor
allow the motor to cool down some
what before putting in fresh water.
A hot soda solution occasionally will
remove all dirt, oil or grease that may
accumulate in the cooling system.
Imperfect mixture causes a dark
brown smoke, and too much lubrica.
tion causes a light gray smoke at the
exhaust. Either indicates waste.
Kissing is sometimes caused by loose
or broken spark plugs. Other causes
may be a loose valve cap or defective
piston ring.
Knocking generally indicates a loose
connecting rod. Tighten it up. A
'knOcker" always causes trouble.
BE sure your reverse lever is in neu-
trail before cranking your motor.
Never "suppose" anything around
Ia tractor. BE positive that every bear
ing is properly oiled, that all bolts are
tight, that water e~ireulates freely.
Don't fill gasoline tank with en-
gine running.
Don't run the tractor at its extreme
high speed at any time during the
first week you have it.
Don't put oil in the lubrieator with

dirt and lint.
Don't allow the clutch to engage sud
denly.
Don't prime the carburetor too much
in warm weather.
Don t attempt to shift gears without
first disengaging the clutch.
DOM attempt to shift gears until
the tractor comes TO a full stop.
Don't neglect to keep radiator filled
with water.
Don't leave water in the radiator
when engine is not running in freezing
weather.
Don't let the fan Belt become loose
so that the fan will not travel its full
speed.
Don't attempt TO start the engine

Don't fail TO lubrieate the motor OF

Usually there is a strainer at the
base Of the earburetoF, or at some
point in the pipe line. This s~trainer OF
