AUTOMOBILES TRUCKS TRACTORS

the truck, SO insurance Is necessary
to prevent loss from unforeseen mis-
fortunes, such as fire, collision, theft,
claims for property damage and la
bility. The premiums for these diff
ferent policies are an essential
charge against the cost Of operation.
Taxes and licenses must also be
charged on the cost account, as they
are expenditures necessary to the law
full operation of the truck.
Other Charges.
Garage rental, light and heat are
also proper charges against the truck,
opportioned of course according to
the amount Of space required by each
vehicle. Many firms maintaining
their own garage fail to make this
charge on the plea that the garage is
paid for. or that it is necessary to the
plant anyway.
1t is important to include this item,
as all others, because unless it is in
cluded a true cost can not be found
and therefore an intelligent COMPARE
son with costs by other methods or
as between different vehicles can not
be made.
Tires represent subject which has
been much argued. Since they are
the most rapidly depreciating por-
ton Of the vehicle it is a general
practice to depreciate them separate
~ on mileage basis, considering
this depreciation as per mile oper-
ating cost. Many operators. there
FORE include tire cost in the principal
and then make a per mile charge for
tire maintenance and replacement as
running charge.-New York Herald.

why will sparkling at the safety
spark gap Of a magnetic usually oc-
cur only on slow speeds, and then
spark irregularly?
Irregular sparkling at the safety
spark gap Of a magnetic occurs usual
ly at slow speeds only, because Of
additional compression caused by ex-
pansion Of excess gases. Often while
the engine is idling the amount of
each charge of fuel admitted to the
cylinders Is not fully consumed by
combustion, forming excess gas,
which expands and creates a COM
preston thru which the spark at the
plugs will not jump: Thus the cur
rent not being able to cross the
spark plug points jumps across the
safety spark gap at the magnetic.
2-What is the cause of car
bureter constantly dripping when
the engine is stopped after being in
operation, but which will not drip
when the engine is running?
The carbureter which leaks when
the engine is stopped after running
usually has a poorly fitting fuel inlet
or float valve. Grind in the old
valve or fit new one. Leaking is
also caused by a loaded float stick
ing inlet valve or float or badly
fitted needle valve.
s-What is the weight Of a gallon
Of gasolene?
The approximate weight Of gall
lon Of gasolene is six and six tenths
pounds.
4-Is there an advantage in using a
four-cylinder engine for racing pur-
poses?
AlthO many of the present speed
records are held by cars with engines
Of more than four cylinders, the ex-
tensive use of the four is accredited
to less friction, less weight per horse
power, shorter engine than the
six, twins six or twin eight and more
cooling or thermal efficiency because
Of a smaller number Of and larger
cylinders.
5-How is the intensitl Of light at
the headlights varied or changed
when the DINNER is in use?
The intensity of the headlights
when a DINNER in the circuit is in
use is regulated by adding to or de-
creasing the size or amount of resis-
lance wire thru which the current
passes before it reaches the lights.
If the lights are too bright when

industrial rruoks.

All authorities are agreed that
there is a splendid future ahead Of
the industrial truck. which is simply
an electric vehicle for use within the
factory or plant. Many manufacture
ers will find that there local vehicles
will prove the solution of the problem
Of speeding up the motor truck
transport system. Under proper con-
ditions industrial trucks will save
Just as much time in delivering prod
ucts al the loading platform as the
trucks save In making the ultimate
deliveries to the outside.

each sermon will stand for itself yet
the greatest good will come to those
