CROSS RAILROAD
ON SECOND Gear
Some Good Hints for Driver to
Follow When Engine Stalls
as Train Approaches.
OPEN THROTTLE GRADUALLY
~ AcceIerator Pedal 10 Pressed Too
Quickly Engine Sometimes Stalls
Operator Should Keep His
Presence Of Mind.

1t is well to give the motorist a
few words of advice on a subject
usually disregarded-that Of crossing
railroads, writes William ii. Stewart,
Jr., in an exchange.
The all too usual method of cross
ing tracks is to drive on high gear,
thrOttled down. This requires a GER
tain amount Of gas. and IL the amount
is reduced too much the engine will
stall. BY shifting into second speed
all such danger 10 overcome. Then
the engine Is turning faster and 1t is
not so easy to stall. Furthermore,
the a may be driven across the
tracks at approximately the anne
speed. The impression prevails that
the car may be speeded up more
readily in high gear In the event of a
train approaching, but the distance is
short and a full throttle opening on
second speed will send the car for
ward with greater certainty.
Why an Engine Stalls.
This brings up n matter of i'm
p0rtance, that of opening the throttle
o. suddenly. If the accelerator pedal
is pressed too quickly the engine nm
times stalls. This is because the air
valve yields readily to the increased
suction, giving IA sudden rush of air
before the spray nozzle can respond
with enough gasoline, Whether the
throttle is opened by hand or foot
the driver should open IT gradually
enough 10 give the engine time to re-
spond. No matter how great the dam
ger may be, the throttle must be
opened gradually. This does not
mean 10 hesitate, but at IA speed which
will not cause the engine to choke be-
fore accelerating.
Dangerous Experience.
Sailing the engine with a train APP
preaching at high speed is "A dangerous
experience, to say the least. There is
no time TO start the engine. but the
operator who keeps his presence of
mind will use the starter to pull out
of danger. BY shifting into low speed
and pressing the starter pedal the ear
is made to move forward slowly.
Keeping this fact in mind. n driver
may save his own life and the lives
of those with him.

Something to Think About

4
The farmers who has corn this fall
and foolishly sells il for zoe or SOC pei
bushel, or the merchant who insists on
the farmer paving biz debts with cheap
corn, .may find that be (merchant)
/ will be called upon next spring to sup-
ply this same farmer with rs to 81. co
corn TO make a crop. In fact zoe or
25c corn will not pay msny debts.
The Banker or Merchant who permits
such a practice will do bis community an
injustice. Each county should try to
keep their corn within the county
Store the corn; feed all you can to the
hogs.
The record shows that the Memphis
Trade Territory produces about 1000,
900 bales of cotton and spends s44, 600,
900 for corn, S44.0O for every bale of
cotton grown. A practice which will
eventually bankrupt any country on
earth. Then. again, we are led t, be.
lieve that with low prices for corn and
high prices for cotton the farmers will
plant even the graveysrds with cotton
next year, and will have q short corn
acreage in 1922. which, if done, would
be nothing short of q calamity.
The Merchants and Bankers who are
already loaded, should insist on it if not
demsrd, that the corn now in the coun
try be held and proper care taken, in
order to meet the probable snort corn
crop for 1922.
Pay day has arrived, ard everyone
may insist on collections, regardless Of
the final outcome But the merchant
whe buys corn at Zoe or SOC. in order to
collect, and with the idea in view of
selling back 20 tie farmer next spring
at q high price, Is using Q short-sighted
policy and does not take seriously the
great responsibility resting upon him.
The farmer who gives his corn away
is equally as foolish.

The battle for them has been waged for

Borough President led a force OF men
from the Highways Department and
proceeded to rip out buildings and rail-
road tracks from the disputed property.
