THINGS TO KNOW
ABOUT YOUR CAR
Watch Your Generator and Stor-
age Battery Carefully Dur
ing Season Changes.
PROPER RATE FOR CHARGING
Great Care Must Be Exercised in Put
ting Right Amount Of Current
Through Battery to Restore En-
ersy Contained In Cells.

Due to the change of seasons from
the cold weather conditions to warm
er it is well to see that the generator
that may have been boosted to take
care of the cranking conditions should
be changed to take care of the crank
ing conditions brought about by warm
weather. 1t is not necessary to have
as much current flowing into a storage
battery during the warmer weather
as 1t is during the cold. because of
the fact that the oil is not as heavy
and the engine is not so hard TO crank,
says writer in an exchange. The
gasoline is easier vaporized and the
ignition has more voltage, due to the
fact that the battery can exert Its
full energy.
Change In Charging Rate.
The reason that we advise change
In charging rates at this season of
the year is because of the fact that
a great many batteries that have been
used abnormally at this season of the
year and during the cold weather have
been worked TO their limit: in other
words they have been almost entirely
exhausted and to start recharging
these batteries. even while on the car,
at n high rate will cause a rapid
deterioration of the plates and also is
liable to cause a great deal of trouble
from armatures becoming overheated
and burning up. also the regulator or
cutout on the machine becoming over
heated and causing 1t TO burn out. The
charging rate considered which is
proper for generators of certain types
is between 10 and 15 amperes and 1t
is not advisable to carry the charging
rate higher than this because of the
reflex action that this has on the gen
erntor and battery and regulating
apparatus. 1t Is always good to take
into consideration that the lower
charging rate is the better for a bat
terry that has been worked hard than
TO start rapid charging rate.
Bring Back Gradually.
There Is n very similar condition
existing between the charging of
storage battery and the case of a sick
man. When the patient is on the road
to recovery. the physician always ad-
vises that the food be carefully Sc
lected and the patient gradually be
brought back to his full strength. The
same applies TO storage battery.
Grent care must be taken with the
proper amount of current put through
the battery to restore the energy con-
tained In the cells II is also advis-
able at this time of the year before
going into summer driving to have the
voltage and gravity tests taken
ppriOlicuily so that the battery's re-
cuperation will be brought back to
normal state without causing undue
danger.

Experts Study
Ivy Poisoning

manganate Of potash, hyposulphite of
soda, sulphate of magnesium Epson
salts). and other remedies, is also dis
cussed. Sugar Of lead, formerly much
used, often proves disappointing If ap-
piled after inflammation has developed,
and the user runs the risk of lead pois-
oning If this substance is applied ex-
tensively.
The names "poison oak" and "poison
Ivy" are used INTERCHANGEABLE In many
localities. The plant generally known
as poison oak throughout the Pacific
coast occurs as bush sometimes four
or five feet high, and has leaflets re-
sembling the leaves Of the western oak,
but 1t Is also found as vine and is
sometimes called poison Ivy.
In the east from New Jersey, Della
ware and Virginia southwark the name
poison oak" Is often used to distin-
guish from the poison ivy vine, a form
occurring as bush with lobed leaflets
little resembling the leaves of scrub
oak. Westward from Minnesota, Ne.
braska, and Arkansas to Washington.
Montana, Colorado and New Mexico.
this name Is applied to a low bush or
trailing shrub which does not climb.
The leaves of all forms have stout
rather long stems, bearing three leaf
lets, two of which are opposite, and
short stalked, while the third has a
long stalk. The leaflets are from one
to four inches long ddrn green on the
upper surface, lighter sometimes with
velvety covering of fine hairs) un-
derneath, with smooth or somewhat
indented margins.
In the eastern states and westward
as far as Wyoming to Texas, the vtr-
ginia creeper is found generally in the
same location as poison ivy vine,
which 1t resembles somewhat in its
habits and the shape of its leaflets, but
1t can be readily distinguished from
poison Ivy In that its leaves are divided
into three to five leaflets to the stalk.
Moreover. though 1t Is sometimes SUD-
ported by aerial rootlets, like poison
Ivy, 1t also has numerous tendrils like
those of the grape vine, and its In
edible fruits are blue, with red stems,
and contain two or three seeds.
Poison sumac grows in moist ground.
usually In swamps or along low, miry
banks of streams and ponds. 1t oc-
ours from New England TO Florida, and
westward to Minnesota, Arkansas and
Louisiana. The poison sumac leaves
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1920-04-23

are readily distinguished from the
harmless sumac and species of ash
elder and other shrubs and trees hav.
Ing a somewhat similar foliage, and
the character, appearance and color of
the fruits furnish other simple means
Of Identification. Furthermore, the
poison sumac occurs on moist or
swampy land. and in drier locations is
found only along the borders of
swamps or boys. The number of leaf
lets into which the leaves Of the harm
less sumacs are divided range from 8
to Fl and 81, while the poison sumac
leaves divide into Z to 10 leaflets.
While many persons are Of the opin-
ion that contact with these plants is
not necessary to produce poisoning, 1t
is probable that many cases supposed
to have originated in this way have
actually been due to direct or indirect
contact. There are cases on record
showing that the smoke from burning
plants will give rise to irritation, and
in some cases severe poisoning has re-
suited from this form Of exposure. Re-
garding the popular belief that some
persons are wholly immune, the in
vestlgatOrs state that there is good
reason to believe absolute immunity
does not exist, although 1t is recog-
nized that some persons are much less
susceptible than others.
How to Eradicate Poisonous Plants.
Eradication Of these plants should
be widely undertaken and followed
up Systematically. Every landowner
should feel measure of responsibility
In this matter. The simplest method
Is by grubbing, In which care should
be taken to cover the hands properly,
and also to prevent infection by means
Of the clothing. The plants in fields
may be destroyed by blowing them up
and putting in cultivated crops. Often
repeated moving is also effective. The
use of kerosene is recommended where
injury to other plants or trees Is not
to be feared. It may be applied with
sprinkler or a spraying pump, and
In many case one application Is suffi-
cient. Arsenate Of soda has been used
very successfully to kill poison Ivy on
trees six to ten inches In diameter
without injury to the trees, as we'll as
on stone walls. buildings and along
fences.
