commissioners have awarded a Sis
coo contract to pave the Lincoln
Highway from the end of the pres
ent paving in Omaha to the Dodge
county line. The first section west
of Omaha, about one third OF the to-
tai paving which will aggregate
twenty-five miles, will be of brick
and the rest of the surfacing has not
yet been determined.
The main trouble this year is the
scarcity of brick. The brick paving
to be done this season will run close
to $55.550 mile, this being the most
expensive paving work on the trans
continental road yet put in west Of
the Mississippi.
The cost OF this paving will re-
Quire as much Of the 81 Coo 900 bond

other roads planned to he paved this
year in Douglas county will not he

Gasoline Common
Cause Engine Trouble

The sasolene your motor uses Is
the cause of much trouble unless you
see TO 1t that the gas is the right
composition for your engine. A few
Of the troubles that are brought
about by the wrong fuel usage are
rapid carbonization. overheating'
hard starting. plug fouling, lack OF
power and poor fuel economy. The
owner must do little experimenting
in order TO find a gasolene such as
Will give the best results.
Where there are several gasolene
stations, and the owner usually goes
to the same one each time. but when
the owner goes on a trip. he buys
whatever gasolene the wayside deal
err has to sell. He may be able to
procure gasolene Of good uniform
quality. but, it Is safer. after finding
a good grade Of fuel, to buy that
grade only.
The need for this precaution In
buying Is greater now than former
ly, when the fuel was not mixed
Most gasolenes now are mixtures,
and 1t Is only the trade marked fuel
put out by reliable refiners that can
be used without inviting engine trou-
BILE.
Another important item In fuel
economy is getting what you pay for
when you drive up to the gasolene
station. Many times a driver Is in
hurry and leaves the filing Of the
tank entirely with the dealer. The
average dealer is honest, but be sure
that his pumping outfit pumps what
the indicator says. AS many things
can 60 wrong with that pump as
there can to tire pump, and you
know from experience that tire
pump does not always pump air in
the desired volume. Leaky pistons
and leaks in the hose contribute to
short measure of air and likewise in
the Sasoiene station &c short meas
ure in 3asolene.
When you hear sputtering
around the nozzle of the hose, de-
mand that the dealer check the
measure, tor the pump is pumping
air with the gas.
Most dealers are aware of the fact
that the hose can hold as much as
half a gallon of gasolene, and the
hose should be drained in order to
get full measure.
