nations foolish enough to be hunting

LITTLE AUTO NOTES
FROM NEAR AND FAR

Iowa has more than $4,000
motor vehicles.
The history OF the motor
truck antedates the passenger
automobile.
Between 600 and 1000 mo-
~tOrcycles are In use In the Meth
erlands.
The British army employed Alb
women motor drivers during the
war.
There are only 299,135 miles
Of improved highway in this
country.
More than 100000 horses
were displaced by motOrtrucks
last year.
The largest motorcycle factory
in the world is at Springfield,
Mass.
Sales of automobiles In Brit
ish Columbia tOtaled 6,0O0 cars
last year.
Rubber tires on motor trail
r are required in Michigan and
Wisconsin.
MOtOrtruck trains moved be-
tween points 1000 miles distant
during the war.
As a part of its collection of
freaks, the first motor vehicle to
be exhibited around the country
was among the big attractions in
a circus in 1896.

Hub APPS won't always come on
merely by wrench persuasion, even
when considerable manual effort Is
also used, says Motor Life. If the
cap Is so tight that you cannot bulge
1t by your own efforts, bring the Jack
into the matter. Use a fairly long
handled wrench. and place the jack
under the end OF the handle. A few
strokes OF the Jack will get the best

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-.
ergy Contained In Cells.

Due to the change of seasons from
the cold weather conditions to warm
er 1t 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 n 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 a writer in an exchange. The
gasoline is easier vaporlzed 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 a change
In charging rates at this season of
the year is because of the fact that
a great many batteries that have been
USED a%bnormally at this season of the
year and during the cold weather have
been worked to their limit; in other
words they hive been almost entirely
exhausted and to start recharging
these batteries, even while on the car,
at a high rate will cause n rapid
deterioration Of the plates and also is
liable to cause a great deal of trouble
from armatures becoming Overheated
AMI hI1rninU mn nlsn tIn m tnr a-
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 10 amperes and It
Is not advisable to carry the charging
rate higher than this because of the
reflex action that this has on the gen
orator 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 a rapid charging rate.
Bring Back Gradually.
There is n very similar condition
existing between the charging of a
storage battery and the case of a sick
man. When the patient is on the road
to recovery, the physician always adj
vises that the food be carefully Sc
lecteo and the patient gradually be
brought back to his full strength. The
same applies TO a storage battery.
Great care must be taken with the

Birds and Shellhsh

The English thrush brings its snails
to q certain convenient stone. on which
II will crack their shells by beating
them upon il. Some sea birds carry
shelIhsh to a height and drop them on
the rock to break their shells. but this
brings only the anvil into use. not the
hammer. The case of the wasp is the
only one which records the seemingly
intelligent use Of a tool to accomplish
, gwen purpose.
