MAGNETIC BIG AID
TO EASY RUNNING

Many motorists, particularly those
who have had a few seasons of trav-
cling about for pleasure. those of a
methodical turn, and those using cars
for business purposes, figure in ad-
vance how much they expect to spend
in the coming year. They sometimes
divide their budget into four classes:
Tires, gasolena, repairs. and miscel-
laneous. The vast majority, however
run their cars in a 'haphazard way.
with no regard for expense. and at
the end of the season grumble about
the high cost of everything. others
boast of how little their automobile
costs to run per mile, and speak in
a general way without having any
accurate record.
Although it is not easy to plan in
advance just what service will be re-
quired of a car during the year, what
total mileage will be made, and what
tours or journey will be undertaken,
nor under what conditions, it is not
impossible to set a target-total based
upon previous experience and, by
entering in the proper column of the
daily log-book the actual amounts
paid out to get an average by the
day. week and month.
Such a plan serves a double pur-
pose, for it adds to the pleasure OF
motoring and brings back to the mo-
torist's mind many episodes and
scenes otherwise forgotten. 1t is also
Of absorbing interest to find how
near one is able to keep to the origi-
nal estimate, aside from the many
useful facts to be learned.
For instance, consider the saving in
the gasolene account when a magnetic
is used for ignition, as compared with
the mileage plus the cost of constant
service. overhauling, and occasional
renewal OF plates, where a battery
system is used for ignition, with notes
in the remark column" OF the time
lost on the road and why. Record If
the car ran we'll or not.
IT Is astonishing how much better
power the engine gives when a mag
neto is used, and how few troubles
happen elsewhere because OF it.
The magnetic lasts as long as the
car. il never tempered with. and
needs no attention other than oil
once every thousand miles, whereas
the battery needs to have the plates
and other parts removed every two
years or so.

Water itself apparently does no
harm to tires. but the combination Of

humidity Is very destructive. espeei-

product increased the large shipments
caused only passing mention, and
now that situation is rapidly becom-
ing true in the field of recorders, for
the times are changing, and especial
ly so in the truck field.
"The business OF America is rap
idly being truckized, and as the days
go by it will be placed more and
more dependent on the commercial
vehicle. What more natural, then,
than that the business man should
watch carefully the performances of

FARMERS OWN HALF
OF AUTOS IN j. S.

"A friend remarked to me the other
farm, but was afraid to make the
change for he didn't know the bust
ness" remarked Samuel Deutsch. gen.
eTal manager of the Signal Motor
Truck Company, OF Detroit.
That is some change, isn't il, from
the situation when some of us were
boys? Most anyone used to make a
farmer whether he knew anything
else or not. In the old days farming
consisted OF about 90 per cent man
ual labor and about 10 per cent brains.
Now the percentages are about re-
versed.
''The successful farm owner today
is the head of a highly specialized
business. Not only must he be an
expert in the raising of crops, but he
has the same production and trans
portation problems as the head of
any other business.
1T will surprise a lot of people to
hear that over half of the automobiles
in this country are owned by farmers,
and over one-third of the motor
trucks.
1.-THE successful farmer is a pioneer
in the automotive line. Ten to one he
knows more about the insides OF his
car or bis truck than you do. He buys
truck because he has figured out
where II is going to save him money.
and he can tell you right down to the
smallest mechanical reason why the
truck he purchased is best suited to
his needs"

TWO NoBBY TIRES
LAST FOR TWO YEARS

Four full years OF service from two
United States nobby tread tires is a
good record. Benjamin F. Rich, OF
North Chatham, Mass, reports that
four years ago he put these two tires
on Ford truck.
He has used them every business
day winter and summer. One of them
gave out a few days ago after giving
10000 miles, but the other is still
going.

uniformed service of the nation, dur
ing the great war will assemble to
form an organization with 100 per
cent Americanism as it's guiding light
The officers selected at this con-
vention and the policies determined
upon will be the result of the thought
OF the members of the legion
throughout the country and there
fore when it concludes, the principles
that it will enunciate and can be
accepted as the delineation Of the
thoughts for better government and
betterment of conditions that have
been evolved by the soldiers, sailors

broadening experience of the war.
The local post of the American
Legion known as Carroll Post No. 81

throughout the county. Men who
served during the war either in
