are showing their hearty approval
of his candidacy.
Mr.. Kelsey, while second, Is
making every effort to win the Nash
Six. and with the loyal support OF
shis friends he has every oppor-
tunity. While it is nice to be in the
lead. yet the lead signifies but little

RAILROADS MOVING MORE
FREIGHT THAN EVER BEFORE
AT THIS TIME OF YEAR

As result of the outlaw" strikes
and other conditions the railway
managements some weeks ago were
confronted with very difficult prob
lem. TRANSPORTATION in all parts of
the country had been slowed down.
No class of shippers could get a.v-
where near enough ears to ship their
freight and the country was con-
fronted with the danger of coal
shortage, especially in the North
west and in New England.
Under very favorable conditions,
partly due to the fact that the ears
and other facilities had been return
ed to them by the government in bad
shape. the railway managements set
determinedly to work to put the eff
cheney of the railways back on its
pre-war basis and if they could not
move all the business offered, TO at
least move more business than ever
had been moved before. Ii requires
time to do this. Of course. II is too
early vet to say that they Rctually
already have gone over the top
but the progress so far made has
been such that there is no good rea-
son for believing that they will not
"go over the top.
Throughout the year 1920 up to
the present time, in spite of all their
difficulties. the railways have moved
more freight than they did in the
year 1919. Recently. they have been
moving more freight than they ever
moved in the same season in any
year. The statistics for the first
three weeks of August. 1920 show
that in those weeks the number of
loaded ears of freight moved was
2.sGs.75s. This was 25i.0i4 more
than in the same weeks of 1919.
When !, became plain that the coal
situation in the Northwest was acute
Il was decided that to prevent fuel
amine in that territory the riilwnys.
or some weeks TO come at least,
must deliver 1000 ears of coal Il
dav TO the posts ON Lake Erie for
trans shipment by boat TO the head
of the lakes. The railways are now
delivering more than this amour, of
coal to those ports. They have been
moving weekly to New England more
coal than the amount il was deter
mined they must move to meet next
winters needs.
In order that the grain crops of
the West and the coal output of the
East could he handled with any APP
Droach to satisfaction il was nee

rom the eastern railways and many
coal ears from the western railways

Keep your oil clean. II there is
no strainer in the funnel you use for
oil, get one that has a strainer. A

harm, but as they accumulate they

particularly to oil pumps of the
plunger type using check valves. An
obstruction in the valve will cause
the system TO fail and may burn
out a bearing.
Make sure your oil gauge IS free
to move, as a wrong indication is
fatal Sometimes the wire is bent
and the gauge does not fall as the
oil Is used up. The inexperienced
driver does not realize this and his
engine runs dry.
A gauge which can be reached by
