@. Why do some leaves turn yell
low and some red in the fall!
]. d. S.
A. The colors of the leaves in the
fall depend upon the chemical con-
tents Of the tree. When the leaves
begin to turn this is sign that they
| are returning to the body of the
tree any food matter contained in
them. All that remains in the cell
| cavities Of the leaf is a watery sub
stance in WHICH few oil globules
and crystals and a small number of
yellow, strongly retroactive bodies
can be seen. This gives the yellow
color. In some trees there is more
sugar in the leaf than readily goes
back into the. trunk Of the tree. This
! gives the red color.

New Invention Makes Fords

Gasoline - Other Cars
Show Proportionate Saw
inqS

A new carburetor which cuts down
the gasoline consumption Of any mo-
tor, including the Ford, and reduces
gasoline bills from one-third to one
half, is the proud achievement of the
Air Friction Carburetor CO., 213 Mad
ison street, Dayton, Ohio. This re-
markable invention not only increases
the power of all motors from 80 to
so per cent, but enables every one to
run slow on high gear. With it, you
can use the very cheapest grade OF
gasoline or half gasoline and half
Kerosene and still get more power
and more mileage than you now get
from the highest test gasoline. Many
Ford owners say they now get as
high as 45 to so miles a gallon of
gasoline. So sure are the manufac-
turers of the immense saving their
new carburetor will make that. they
offer to send it on 80 days trial to
every car owner. AS it can be put
on or taken Off in a few minutes by
anyone, ali readers who want to trs
it should send their name, address
and make of car to the manufactures
at once. They also want local agents,
to whom they offer exceptionally
large profits. WIte them today d3yyt
