PROVIDE ENGINE
WITH LUBRICANT
Liquid in Crank Base Sometimes
Trimmed Out With Gasoline
and Disaster Follows. Z
MAKE CERTAIN OF RIGHT OIL
Old Material Should Be Drawn Out
and New Supply Put in for Every,
1000 Miles Of Driving-keep
Close Watch on Gauge.

The wise car owner Obeys his In
struction book explicitly. He fills the
base Of his engine with lubricant when
,oil is necessary, as indicated by the
gauge, but the instruction book does
not always advise him further regard
ing the oiling system. At the present
high cost Of lubricant more instruc-
tiOns are necessary.
You may have liquid in the base OF
your engine, but is it lubricant
Many times this liquid is a combina-
tion Of cylinder oil and gasoline. Its
lubricating properties are poor and
should the bearings burn out through
lack Of oil the owner is apt to blame
the oil for the trouble. Then he i'm
mediately buys oil Of another grade
without knowing the real reason for
his trouble.
Make Sure cf Right OIL.
The best way to make sure q hav-
ing the right grade of oil is to use re-
ligiously the oil recommended by the
manufacturers of the particular car
you drive. Depending upon the type
Of engine, crank-case oil should be
changed regularly. Old lubricating oil
should be drawn out and new oil put
in for at least every 1000 miles Of
driving. In special cases it is advfs-
able to renew the oil much offener.
but this is the usual length Of time it
may be left in the engine.
If the engine doesn't get sufficient
amount Of oil it will run hot. II the
driver does not notice that his oil
gauge is failing to indicate, it is doubt
full that he would know the engine was
hot until it stopped and wouldn't run
any more. In such case he would
probably find that one or two, perhaps
all. Of the bearings are burnt out.
Something Wrong.
When the engine is not getting
enough oil It is usually because the
oil supply has been allowed to run
low or there is something wrong with
the circulating system-either the
pump is not forcing the oil to the bear
ings properly or the pipes are plugged
or the connections are loose or the
strainer is obstructed with foreign
matter.
Whenever the gauge does not func-
ton properly the trouble should be
Investigated at once. Make sure. first
or all. that there is enough oil in the
crank case. Then take careful look
at the oil pipe connections to make
sure that they are not leaking. II
these are tight take out the oil strain
er and clean It and IL the trouble is
still in evidence disc0nnect all the oil
pipes and stick wires through them or
blow them out with the tire pump.
Finally. q better adjustment Of the oil
pump may be made to cause It to
pump more oil. provided indications
prove It to be improperly adjusted.

DOZEN EGGS MORE TO HEN.
1920 SLOGAN

"One Dozen Eggs More Per
Hen," is the slogan adopted by
poultrymen of Minnesota for
1920, says N. f. Chapman, poul-
try specialist at University farm.
The federal census will show, de-
clares Mr.. Chapman, that there
are $4,000. 900 hens on Minnesota
farms and in Minnesota back
yards. The egg output in 1919
is estimated to have averaged
seven dozen to the hen. A gain
this year of only one per hen
means one million dozen more
eggs which, at so cents the doz-
en-. gives an added income of a
half million dollars. Ergo, a
gain of a clear dozen for each
hen. means additional revenue
of $6,OOO,0O0 for farmers and
city and town poultry raisers.
In 1914 the laying average per
hen was six dozen. Elimination
of poor stock and better care and
management are leading gradu-
ally to higher averages.
