COLD GARAGE CAUSE
OF MANY AUTO ILLS
Experienced Owner viii Under
stand Necessity for Heat.
Sudden Drop In Temperature 10 Bad
for Parts of Engine and Finish OF
Body-Many Difficulties May
Be Obviated.

If the small private garage Is to be
used during the winter any car owner
of experience will understand the
necessity for heating 1t. The cold
garage causes many ills, besides the
obvious one of freezing up the radiator
of the car. In most cases 1t will cause
more than enough damage and incon-
venience fully to have paid for COM
plete heating plant.
Most of the starting troubles so gen
orally complained of in winter may be
traced back to the cold garage. A sud
den drop in temperature is bad for the
parts of the engine and for the finish
of the body, which are susceptible to
marked expansion and contraction
through such changes in temperature.
During the long nights Of winter
great drops often occur and garage
that is unheated subjects the car to
unnecessary and dangerous tests.
Ice In the batteries is another recog-
nized evil resulting from the cold
garage. Also there Is the inconveni'
ence of washing when the car Is COW
cred with frozen mud. If the car Is
cleaned with warm water to remove
the mud and the garage is cold the
paint and varnish are apt to suffer
serious damage, says a writer In
Motor. , ,.....
If, on the other hand. the garage is
heated all these difficulties and dan
gers are obviated. The place is made
comfortable as workro0m and many
little odd Jobs may be attended to
which would otherwise have to be
transferred to the repair shop. to the
pecuniary disadvantage Of the car
owner,

ANTELOPE Can DO
60 MILES AN HOUR
Explorer Says They Are
Easy to Kill-If You
Can Go That Fast

For the first time in the histor,
OF science a speedometer has beef
applied to the speed demons of tn
DESERT by Roy Chapman Andrews
who has just returned from his sec
ond Asiatic expedition with a grea
number of specimens for the Ameri
can Museum of Natural History. 1
was while he was on an automobile
Trip into the desert of Cobb in Mon
golia that his party cgme upon thu
antelope herd which furnished tn,
statistics he gives. According to hi.
account in the New York Sun:
= There were 1000 antelope in the
First, herd We saw. At a distance
they looked like a yellow cloud
against a hill. They had habit
common to antelope the world over
OF circling in front of the pursue1
when chased. We just went as fast
as we could go in our cars and then
began to shoot. You soon get tired
OF such sport, for the antelope, with
his circling habit has no chance
against an automobile. 1t was bet
ter sport to ascertain just how fast
one OF these animals can run.
This the writer could do, because
ne had a speedometer, and the re-
suits are given in his own words in
the New York Tribune:
They ran so fast that we could not
see their legs. any more than you can
see the blades of an electric fan. We
found they would leg it at sixty miles
an hour for about two miles and
slow down for two miles, and then
slow down to forty or fifty. We
chased an antelope one day for TWEEN
ty minutes at an average rate of for
ty miles an hour, and then he quit
because he was so darned surprised
that anything on earth could keep
up with him. When we reached him
he was squatting flat on the sand
waiting, not winded particle.
The antelope's speed is it's only
protection from wolves in the open
plains, so 1t can run practically from
the moment it is born. We found a
baby one day that could not have
been more than two hours old. When
it saw me it shot off like shot. I
jumped on horse and pursued. It
was a bit wobbly at first, but it fl
nally got control of it's legs, and |
never did overtake it.
On another day wolf which was
trying bard to get at herd of ante
lope chased along on one side of the
car for six miles while the antelope
We're trying to circle on the other
When the exasperated wolf tried to
climb aboard the motor a bullet
broke its back, but it kept on climb
ing until shot again.

CAR kept CLEAN
WILL LIVE LONG.
Some Excellent Suggestions
Given on How to Take Proper
Care of Finish"
FREQUENT WASHING IS BEST
Varnlsh Of New Car Is Benefited by
Use of Clear Cold Water-cIean
Leather Upholstery With Piece
of Wooden Cloth. s-

THE engine Of car can be mis-
treated frequently before it begins tt
complain, but the finish can be mis-
treated once or twice-then there |!
no finish left to mistreat," says VIII
liam H. Stewart, president of the
Stewart Automobile school.
1.-THE lack of washing and the essen
tial knowledge of not knowing how tt
wash car will go further towards
running the appearance than any Other
thing. The varnish Of new car is
benefited and hardened by washing
with clear cold water, but mud that Is
allowed to dry upon the body takes
the oil from the varnish and leaves
the finish notified and streaky. Dirt Is
not the only enemy, for gases from
the garage and even the atmosphere
of some towns attack the finish Of the
car that is not frequently washed.
First Remove Dust.
Begin by cleaning the top. Take a
good stiff brush and remove the dust,
then either sponge or use a soft cloth
with warm water and pure soap. A
chamois kept especially for the pur-
pose will tend to hasten the drying and
the top must not be folded until 1t is
thoroughly dry.
"The upholstery, IL Of cloth, is best
cleaned by sponging with water con.
tanning little salt and alcohol. II Of
leather wooden cloth dipped In clear
water to which few drops Of ammo
MIA has been added Is best.
I'm cleaning the body, be sure to re-
move the nozzle Of the hose and flow
the water over every part Of the body.
This will serve to wash Off most Of the
dust and also loosen the mud. In
cases where the car is very dirty it is
best to do this and then let 1t stand
for few minutes before going over 1t
again with the hose. Then take soft
sponge and follow the hose over the
body. If certain portions are grease
spotted these should be washed sep
arately with pure water and CASTLE
soap but except in this one instance
soap of any kind should be avoided on
the body.
To Get at Grease.
'The road oil and grease that collect
on the running gear require different
methods Of removal and also other
tools. Special brushes will get at the
grease in inaccessible corners. In the
case of the wheel hubs, care should BE-
used to prevent water and grit work
ing into the bearings. The chamOis
used on the body should never be used
on the running gear, separate cha
mois being kept for this one purpose
A heavy accumulation should never be
taken off by busting. 1t should be
made to flow off with the hose. If you
wish to use body polish beware of
the many inferior grades on the mar
!,et. If any, you should use the very
best grade Obtainable."
