killed twenty-eight rattlers.

ever so little SO that the gas gives
more OF a push and less Of a Kick
to the piston.
All these things are very small in
degree and are limited in range. For
example. because cold air gives more
power than hot air, II only does so
as long as IL is not so cold that the
gasoline cannot mix with and vapor-
ize in 1t properly. Coming back to
airplape engines again, the most
power seems to be produced with air
somewhere around freezing point: II
colder the motor sputetrs and coughs,
but let 1t not be forgotten that this
is with very high grade gasoline.
One can do little more than guess,
but the chances are an automobile
motor is at it's normal best in an
atmosphere around forty to nifty de-
grees. q
A British manufacturer of motors
was the first to prove conclusively
that motors really did run better at
times other than the middle OF the
day. He did 1t by setting up an
engine which for some years was run
just a half hour or less at six in the
morning, at noon and at six in the
evening. Averaging all the hundreds
Of runs he found that there was not
much difference between the power
morning and evening, but that the

YOUR MOTOR IS At
ITS BEST IN NIGHT
Why This Is SO Explained BY
Engineering Authority in
magazine Article.

Speaking IN general sense
motor ought to run better at night
than in the daytime. writes A. Lud-
low Clayden, an engineering author
ity, in Motor Life. Whether II does
so or not has been a matter of argu-
nent between motorists over since
motorists existed and l well remem-
Der columns of discussion that lasted
for years in almost all the carry
automobile magazines.
Really the thing is very simple.
One is liable to forget that two things
are burnt in a gasoline motor, gaso-
line and air. Neither can burn with
out the other. Also to get the best
and most powerful combustion the
proportions of gasoline TO air cannot
vary very much. To one cylinder fun
of air just, so much gasoline and no
more can be added. --..
To one cylinder full of air. What
is cylinder full? The answer Is
that it all depends upon what you
all it from. Everybody knows that
when driving in very high altitudes
the rarefeld air causes noticeable
loss of power; anyone who has driven
at Ave thousand feet elevation can
not fail to have observed this.
Now the real reason for the loss OF
power is that owing to the rarefying
effect of the altitude. the piston can
only suck in smaller amount OF
air which will only carry with 1t
smaller amount of gasoline and so
will only produce a more feeble ex-
plosion. or course. the volume OF air
taken in on the suction stroke is just
the same whatever the altitude, but
it's weight is less in proportion as
the altitude increases and the ratio
for best combustion is between the
weight of the fuel and the weight
Of the air necessary to insure reason
ably complete combustion. -
Other things have the same ehect
as altitude. For instance. heat rare
fes air by expanding 1t, so that on
hot day the air charge which an en-
gine can breathe in it's smaller In
weight than 1t would be on a cold
day. In testing airplane engines 1t is
an invariable practice to make an
allowance for the temperature of the
atmosphere because the difference in
power is quite appreciable. With a
three hundred horsepower engine n
variation of fifteen horsepower or
more can easily occur by reason OF
nothing else but change in the air
temperature.
Here is one of the principal reasons
why an automobile motor does run
better at night. Night air is almost
always cooler than day air so at
| night the engine can get a heavier
charge and so produce a more power
4 full impulse at each explosion.
Not only is the air taken into the
engine cooler and so heavier. but the
The Washington times., 1920-08-14

presence OF cooler atmosphere
means that the water cooling will be
more effective. that the motor will in
itself be cooler.
This helps to make the charge
drawn in still better because the air
comes into the carburetor cooler and
is heated less on it's way through the
manifolds and within the cylinder it,
self. Also the oil will be cooler. it's
lubricating properties therefore bet
ter, and so there will be less friction
in the motor.
Yet another thing is that night
air often is damper than day air. The
poetic mists OF eventide cool down
the motor as well as perhaps making
the driver turn up his coat collar.
Haven't you ever noticed how the
motometer drops back in 4 rain
shower? Well, the. effect OF damp
ness in the air Is Just the same.
Not only does the damp help by
cooling. Damp air, damp up to a GER
tain point that is. is slightly. better
in what might be called burning
quality. The best kind OF an ex-
plosion is obtainable from air that Is
not absolutely dry. Dampness in the
air within the cylinder makes the ex-
plosion less violent. The combus-
tion, one might say. is slowed down
