Der OF horses and mules reported for
1920, the change in the date OF
enumeration from April Is. 1910, to
January ], 1920. must be taken into
account. The 1920 census. taken as
OF January /, was too early TO in
clude any spring colts, while the
1910 census. taken as Of April 15,
included 612,775 horse colts and
1O9,257 mule colts born between
January and April IS. on the
other hand, since a considerable
number Of horses and mules are lost
by death every year between Janu-
airy and April, an enumeration made
In January would include a larger
number OF mature horses and mules
than an enumeration made in April
Of the same year. The number Of
mature animals thus gained by the
earlier enumeration in 1920 would
offset to some extent the number Of
spring colts enumerated in 1910.
For the United States as a whole,
the total number Of horses reported
for 1920 exceeds the total number
in 1910 by 3O9.342. II the spring
colts be excluded from the 1910 fig
ure, the difference is 922,117. The
actual increase in the number Of
horses is somewhere between these
two figures.
Comparing in the same way the
number Of mules reported in 1920
with the total number reported for
1910, the figures indicate an in
crease Of 1,24O,S54. or nearly 80 per
cent. The actual increase is doubt
less somewhat more than this, since

accounts for a comfortable ride. Riding
fatigue is not entirely eliminated even over

How Tire and Gcrr Change. Affect the
spcrdometer

Sometimes a change is made in the
diameter of the tires used upon a car
and occasionally the bevel gear and
pinion are changed for gears OF diff
terent numbers OF teeth in order to
secure a higher or lower driving ratio
Both alterations necessitate a CORE
spending change In the driving gears OF
the speedometer or It will Indicate in
correctly. For example. suppose that
the speedometer Is operated from n
front wheel, and ths front tires are
changed from 32x3is to s5xt inch
With tho larger tires. the car will
travel 81 per cent further for each
wheel turn than formerly. but as the
mileage indication is based upon the
wheel turns, credit will not be given
for the additional mileage covered and
when 1881 miles have actually been
travelled the odometer will show but
100 miles. Speed indications are also
Pueblo chieftain., 1921-08-21

proporttonately low and a change in
the speedometer gears Is required.
Changing rear tire size or final drive
ratio. does not affect the accuracy of
front driven speedometer. Now sup
pose that the speedometer Is driven
from the transmission. A change of
front wheel tire size will not affect Its
indications but altering rear tire diam
eter produces exactly the same error as
changing front tire size does with the
mission driven speedometer indication
depends upon drive shaft turns and is
thus affected by changes in the final
gear ratio. II the final drive ratio is
made lower, the rear wheels travel
less distance for each drive shaft turn
and the mileage indication is greater
PATCHING SMALL TUBE LEAKS
Inner tubes that have been pune
tured or otherwise have small leaks
are readily repaired on the road. as
follows: If the exact location of the
leak Is not known, initiate the tube
until quite hard and run its surface
around close to ones ear, to locate
the point of escape by the kissing
sound it makes. If this is not sue
cessful, moisten the whole tube or
hold 1t under water and watch for the
point that shows bubbles. Remem-
ber that there may be more than one
leak. Dry the tube, mark the leak,
remove tho valve inside, roll out all
the air and replace the valve inside.
Clean the rubber for a liberal dis
tance around the leak with gasoline
on clean cloth or waste and rough
en- it with emery cloth or sandpaper.
Take = prepared tube patch and
moisten Its cemented side with gaso-
line. after removing the protectir II
cloth from 1t. A mere nail puncture
does not require a patch more than
u inches in diameter. When the
cement becomes decidedly sticky, as
shown by touching it with a clean
finger. place the patch centrally over
the hole-the tube being laid flat on
a board or over one of the car tenders
and roll the patch In all directions.

Answer: No, this Is the treatment
generally recommended. but you should
be sure that all the kerosene is re-
moved before you supply the fresh oil
or otherwise the lubricating qualities of
the latter will be diminished. You
should also take care that the oil
strainer is cleaned before fresh oil is
supplied. The usual practice is to crank
the engine over by hand or with the
starter a hundred turns or so. to cause
the kerosene to reach and cleanse all
parts. draw 1t out thoroly. clean the
strainer and then put in the fresh oil.
Sometimes, a mixture of one-third oil
and two-thirds kerosene. instead of

Answer: Positive diagnosis is diff
cult. If cylinder has very low COM
preston and its valves and rings are
all right, the chances are that the
piston Is very loose and in condition
to slap. The temporary use of very
heavy cylinder oil will sometimes pre-
vent a piston from slapping, thus in
dicating that 1t occurs with oil of ordi-
nary body. Sometimes, by listening at
different parts of an engine, with a de-
vice like a stethoscope. a noise can be
located at a piston or In a bearing
As rule a loose piston slaps worst

and is a sort of metallic clattering
sound, while a main bearing knock oc-
