SAYS CAR RUNS
BEST AT NIGHT
Authority on Engineering Ex-
plains Effect of Cool AtmoS-
phere on Motor.
COMBUSTION MORE PERFECT
Evening Air Estimated to Make Diff
ference of About 5 Per Cent in
Power of Engine-Produces
More Powerful Impulse.

Speaking in a general sense, a mo-
tor ought to run better at night than
In the daytime. Whether it does so or
not has been a matter of argument be-
tween motorists ever since motorists
existed. and one readily remembers
columns of discussion that lasted for
years in almost all the early automo-
bile magazines.
Really. the thing is very simple,
says that engineering authority, A.
Ludlow Clayden, In Motor Life. One
is liable TO forget that two things are
burned in a gasoline motor-gasoline
and air. Neither can burn without
the other. Also to get the best and
most powerful combustion the proper
tons of gasoline to air cannot vary
very much. To one cylinder full of air
just so much gasoline and no more can
be added.
Cylinder Full Of Air.
To one cylinder full Of airi What
is a cylinder full? The answer is that
It all depends upon what o fill 1t
from. Everybody knows that when
driving in very high attitudes the rare
fed air causes n noticeable loss of
power; anyone who has driven at s.
600 feet elevation cannot fail to have
observed this.
Now, the real reason for the loss of
power is that owing to the rarefying
effect of the altitude. the piston can
only suck In a smaller mount of air
which will only carry with 1t a small
80 aaanINAA nd 60 will
only produce a more feeble explosion.
OF course, the volume of air taken In
on the suction stroke is just the same
whatever the altitude, but Its weight
is less In proportion as the altitude
increases and the ratio for best COM
bustion Is between the weight of the
fuel and the weight of the air neces-
sary to insure reasonably complete
combustion.
Heat Rareies Air.
Other things have the same effect
as altitude. For instance. heat rare
fes air by expanding 1t so that on a
hot day the air charge which an en-
CINE can breathe I'm IL smaller In
weight than II would be on a cold day.
In testing airplane engines 1t is an In
variable practice to make an allow
ance for the temperature OF the at
mosphere because the difference in
power is quite appreciable. With T.
300 horsepower engine IA variation of
is horsepower or more can easily &C.
cur by reason OF nothing else but
change in the air temperature.
Here is n Of the principal reasons
why an automobile motor does run
better at night. Night air is almost
always cooler than day air, so at night
the engine can get "A heavier charge
and so produce a more powerful i'm
pulse at each explosion.

COLONY HOUSE is PREFERRED
Give PouItryman Chance TO Raise His
Fowls Under Ideal Conditions

Colony houses on free range give
the poultryman n chance TO raise his
birds under ideal conditions. But the
snme sanitary precautions must be
taken MS with laying houses. The small
houses must be frequently cleaned and
sprayed and the roosts painted with
kerosene or some lice paint to keep
down the red mites.

MAKE HEN FLOCK PROFITABLE
With Possible Exception Of Leghorns
Fowls over Two Years Old Do
Not Pay to Keep.

1t seldom pays to keep hens for lay
ing after they are two and one-half
years old. This may not be true of
Leghorns but is generally so of most
other breeds. Hens older than this
may return some profit but younger
hens will return greater profits. In
this day Of high-priced feed, culling
will make poultry more profitable.
