Facing Valves.

When valves are badly pitted the
operation of facing is best carried
out in a lathe. Chuck the valve
stem and clean the center in the
valve end and support it by the
dead center of the tail stock. If
the valves are so hard that facing
with a tool is impossible they may
be ground with a wheel while in the

Trailers Solve
Truck Shortage
On West Coast

While the motor truck Is at
tracing attention as a modern
marvel in the short-haul trans
portation field. its little brother
the trailer. Is quietly saving
some wood in that field itself.
L. Farr, director of the Fire.
stone Ship by Truck Bureau. at
Akron. o., which operates sixty
fve branches throughout the
United States. sees this future
for the trailer foreshadowed to-
day in several sections of the
country, but notably in Cali
fornia. where one company Is
now operating twenty-nine trucks
and trailers on q motor express
route between Stockton and
Fresno.
"on this route" says Mr.. Farr.
big trucks with through loads
operate between the cities. But
1t way points established by
the company they drop and pick
PUP trailers. Smaller trucks at
these way points PICK up the
trailers. distribute their loads in
the towns and country round
about, and obtain new loads.
in other words. the big trucks
carry main line loads only, and
the smaller trucks take care of
the branch line business. And
the trailers obviate the neces-
sity of transferring the freight
from carrier, to carrier when IL
is switched from main line to
branch.
"It seems reasonable to assume
that as good level roads become
general throughout the United
States. this system now being
practiced successfully in Cali
fornia will become general. since
it can reduce costs of motor
transport 20 to 40 per cent"

consequence the raw materials for
the manufacture OF power alcohol
are being continuously renewed
and are susceptible of great ex-
pansion without encroachment on
the food supply.
Rather interesting experiments
were made with alcohol derived
from the flowers of the mahua
trees growing in the East Indies.
1t is said that the sun-dried
flowers of this tree contain some
thing like so per cent of ferment-
able sugar and that they can be
collected and delivered to the fac
tory in the zone of growth at $3.50

mans, long before the war. had de-
veIoped a system of industrial al

every farmer could produce his OWL

molasses, but with alcohol made
from the latter. Continuing, the
writer sets forth:
American Motorist not long ago
called attention to the possibilities
offered by the use Of alcohol as fuel
for internal engines. n
few years ago the United States
Geological Survey, through its tech
biological branch, made series OF
elaborate tests of the relative value
of gasoline and alcohol as power
producers. The most important re-
suits of the Investigations are con-
tained in the evidence that/well-de-
signed internal-combu5tion motors
using alcohol or gasoline Will con-
sumo about an equal volume OF fuel
per unit OF power. The averages of
the minimum consumption values
give a like figure of $40 OF a pint
per hour per break horsepower from
gasoline as we'll as for alcohol. In
this comparison it is of decided il =
terest that the thermal value of al
cohol is only $40 that OF gasoline

renewed attention. A committee
has been appointed which, after

convinced that alcohol as motor
