Poison Grasshoppers Now

The grasshoppers are beginning to
hatch out in different parts of the
county and it is well to get them while
they are young and before they have
scattered. The investment in few
pounds of poisoned bait at the right
time will save hundreds of dollars
worth of crops later on. For the
benefit of those who have not used
poisoned bait, the formula for mix

In 1910, according to the federal
census, there were 1885, 1873 horses
ON farms in the United States. Dur
ing the period between 1910 and 1920
the tractor was developed and had its
most wonderful growth in popularity.
The federal census bureau reports
that in 1920 there were 20,142,455
horses on farms in the United States.
This shows marked increase of
horses on farms in the past 10 years,
yet the tractor manufacturers and
sales agents tell us the tractor is
driving the horse from the farm and
he will soon be extinct, as a farm
motive power" The wise farmer will
continue to raise good draft horses,
which will be needed as long as farms
are farmed.

to us for the present consideration.
 It is rather a remarkable fact that the simplest and theoretically the most efficient type of greaset, the friction set, has passed out of use in the auto mobile field. The friction gearset con- sists of two discs-one driving, the other driven. In operation the driven disc is brought into contact with the driving disc, the rate of speed being determined by its distance from the center of the driving member. Ob- viously this arrangement gave an al- most unlimited number of speeds, smoothness of action, but the great trouble was that the sets did not stand up under the strains of heavy work At one time it enjoyed great popularity, but it gradually was abandoned TOT heavy work and finally even the light est cars gave it up in favor of the slid 1 ing selective type. It Is regrettaoie that the friction set could not stand | up under the needs of service, for It had all the theoretical virtues that de- l light the heart of the engineer.
 If the car owner will stop for just one moment and consider the essential construction of the conventional gear set he will realize the need for great care in operation and maintenance. Two shafts holding sets of gears, wh1cn
 must be brought into engagement while |
 speed, points to ever present danger Of | breakage or injury. And this IS actual | y so. Breakage of members In the gearset, bending of the shafts so that | they are out of alignment, are common ] in gearset operation. When the shaIts
 once get out of line there is no hope or decent operation until the condition IS remedied, the gears will clash and
 growl, the teeth will chip or suffer more serious breaks and replacements Of gears will do no earthly good until the entire transmission Is properly lined up again. When the shafts are
 out of line the grears do not engage evenly, as they are intended to do,
 which is the whole secret of the trouble, The first thing to do to keep the
 gearset up to proper operation pitch Is to give it proper fabrication. Oil is the proper lubricant for this unit, not
 grease. In winter it will be well to use 2 somewhat thinner oil than in hot l weather, as the cold tends to thicken thousand miles of running, the oil should be drained off from the gearset housing, which should be flushed out with kerosene and then refilled with fresh oil Neglect of this precautio' will probably bring premature failure
 of the unit.
 I Finally let us call attention to the
 fact that without a gearset operating efficiently the entire operation of the car is thrown out of gear Understand
 ing that the car owner should give the
 part the most scrupulous care that ht
 is capable of supplying. Systematic
 care will keep this unit moving eff. fciently for a long time and this car'
 is easier to give than the time ant
 trouble necessary to repair damage t
 the part, not to mention the probabl,
 repair bills.

DESIGNS AND FUNCT|O |ONS OF
 TRANSM|SS|ONS
By PIuu Sparks


 The war has brought us a number of improvements in the mechanism of the car That is to say under the stern lash of military needs, many weak nesses were discovered and remedied, which, in the ordinary course of events, would have taken years to bring about. Not all these innovations have yet ac- tually made their appearances, but the coming national shows will undoubted- ly place most of them on public view.
 Whatever else the war may bring us, 1t is devoutly to be hoped that some improvement in present types of trans missions or gearsets may result. En- gineers are unanimously agreed that the greaset is by far the most back ward of all the mechanical units that go to make up the modern motor car chassis. And we may reasonably hope that some improvement in transmission design Is imminent, so that 1t will be of interest to examine the present types of this mechanical unit in detail.
 The function of the transmission or r>arset is to change the tractive effort at the rear wheels in proportion to the effort needed. By it's means the rear wheels are permitted to run slowly while the engine is running fast, etc. In general this control over the trac- tive effort is obtained bv meshing gears of various sizes. In operation power is generated by the engine, passes back through the clutch. which delivers fl to a shaft which is part of the trans mission unit On this shaft are cer- tain numbers of gears which may be
Arizona republican., 1921-03-06

shifted into and out of engagement with other gears, mounted on another shaft, known technically as a counter shaft. These gears on the countershaft have varying numbers of teeth, a con- dition which produces the changes in tractive effort.
 The mechanical unit that we have just described is known as the sliding selective gearset and while it serves its purpose fairly well 1t uses a tremen- dous expenditure of effort to accom- plish what is comparatively a small effect. We need a device which shall perform this service in simpler and easier way, without the constant danger of breakage and injury that exists with the present type.
 While the sliding selective gearset is the prominent type today, there are other forms in use. The next most i'm portant is the planetary gearset, which is used in the Ford car which, in point of mere numbers, makes the type i'm portant. The planetary gearset con- sists of a group of spur gears, always in mesh with a central or master gear. This master gear is known as the sun gear and the spur gears as planetary gears, from a resemblance of the set to the operations of the solar system. Tn operation the gears are forced to re- volve on each other, this action beine induced by stopping the movement of the part supporting the gears, which is
 accomplished by means of a sort of
 brake When the gearset is in high il
 revolves as a unit, giving a remarkably efficient action.
 One of the drawbacks to the planet ary gearset is the fact that it can only
 be constructed for two speeds, as the adding of other speeds adds so much complication that engineers are loath to employ the type. The Ford car, ii
 is scarcely necessary to remind the reader, has but two forward speeds Still when it is well constructed the planetary gearset serves it's end with a reasonable degree of efficiency. In the truck field we find a third type of greaset, known as the constant
 mesh type. This variety of transmits
 sion has not come into the passenger car field as yet and so is of no interest

Buyers NouO Demand

 Profit, Says Dunbar

With the change In general business conditions of the past six months there has been a decided change in the buy CTS attitude toward motor cars, ac- cording to Harold L. Arnold, distribu- tor of Hudson cars in California, Ari- zona and Nevada.
 .'The buyer no longer inquiries first as to the speed, fancy equipment and freak performance of a car," said Don aid Dunbar of Dulmage & Dunbar. Nowadays he asks, Is it economical? Will it be gain to my business?' and Is it profitable investment for me?' ''
 Hudson cars with the high quality of material in them,, are priced ex- tremely low. This fact with the un- disputed performance and low up-keep makes the answer, Yes do for all three of the new buyers questions, as far as the Hudson line is concerned D
