Answers to Last Weeks Questions.
l. When you wish to make your car
go faster. do not increase its speed by
quickly accelerating the engine. This
is bad habit to acquire. because it
ADDS wear and tear not only to the en-
gine but throughout the entire drive
system. including the tires on the rear
wheels. Like in breaking the speed of
the car so should the speed be in
creased, and that way is gradually.

spark plug points may be lean spark.
possible misfiring of plugs and strain
on the ignition coil.
3. A timer is used in the electric
system of an automobile to break the
primary ignition circuit and thereby
induce secondary current in the coil or
magnetic. which current is necessary
to produce a spark at the plugs. The
distributor is the part of the system
which distributes this high-tension
current to the various spark plugs in
the proper firing order. In some sys-
TENS the distributor and timer are
combined as unit. but perform the
same functions. The timer is ground
ed with the engine. while the distribu-
tor is not.

bearings and its adjusting nut and
cone be set temporarily and tried by
a revolving wheel, to ascertain if
there is play or if the bearings are too
tight. Even very little play in bear

new FOUR-WHEEL BRAKE
BY AMERICAN INVENTOR
European Manufacturers, However,
Have Little to Learn From
Here Just Now.

In the matter of improved brake
design for automobiles, says the Sci
entific American, it appears that Eu-
ropean manufacturers have little to
learn from US just now.
If anything, they are showing US the
way to more efficient braking. The
! latest Improvement abroad takes the
| form Cf a brake construction for all
| four wheels, replacing the usual type
| of brakes for rear wheels only used
| in most automobiles.
recently come forward with a new
and simplified four-wheel brake con-
struction on which he has obtained
basic patents in the United States.
inventor the dangers of skidding.
and careful investigation led him to
believe that the usual brakes are at
, the wrong end of the automobile.
1t has been found in tests that a
car equipped with a. four-wheel brake
system Of the proposed design was
al BILE to stop in the following dis
tances:
At 10 miles per hour. in feet.
At 20 miles per hour, in feet.
At 30 miles per hour. in 90 feet.
With the same type of car equipped
with the usual type of brakes it re-
auired space of eightythree feet to
pSr hour. or almost four and half
mes the distance required with the
same car equipped with four-wheel
brakes.
In recent experimental brake tests
by competent engineers it has been
demonstrated that a touring car with
all seats occupied carries the greatest
load over the rear axle. At the instant
when the brakes on the rear axle are
applied the load is transferred to the
front axle, due to the reaction of the
brakes on the rear brake drums. This
is said to be the principal cause of
skidding. With the brakes applied at
the same time on both front and rear
axles the tendency to skid is said to
be entirely overcome and much
quicker stop can be made. Travelling
over wet pavement at speed of
twenty miles per hour, the four
wheel-brake car can be stopped with
in its own length. 1t can round cor
ners at faster speeds than are usu-
ally considered safe with wet pave
ments, because of the excellent con-
troll. In congested city traffic the
four-wheel brakes make the handling
OF the car an easy matter.
This system of four-wheel brakes
can be applied to any standard car.

CANNON BOOSTING FOR
STATE POTATO SHOW
Washington's First Spud Fair to be
Held in Spokane Some Time in
November

George j. Cannon, state farm bu-
reau leader and one of Washington's
largest and most successful potato
growers, was in Kennewick, Tuesday
for the purpose of interesting local
growers in the potato show to be held
IN Spokane in November.
This will be the first show of it's
kind to be held in the state. It's pur-
pose is to educate growers in STAN
dardized cultural methods and seed Sc.
lection. According to Mr.. Cannon
many growers are wasting time with
a lot Of nondescript varieties instead
of combining their activities to few
commercial varieties.
Only the following varieties will be
accepted for exhibit at the show: Late,
Melted Gems, Burbank and Idaho Ru-
raj; Early, Irish Cobbler, Early Ohio,
cred and white), Bliss Triumph and
Earliest of All.
Mr.. Cannon urges local growers to
make exhibits at the fair here next
week when instructions will be given
as to how to select and prepare pota-
toes for exhibition purposes.

MILES OF BUGS ARE
MARCHING ON KENNEWICK
Line of Black Beetle March Extends
From kiona to Summit of Horse
Heaven Hills

Black beetles, millions of them,
marching over 12-mile front, are re-
ported to be on their way to Kenne-
wick from the west. The ground is
reported to be literally alive with the
black-shelled bugs. Yesterday the line
of march extended from the Yakima
river at Kiona southwark to the sum-
NIT of the Horse Heaven hills.
Martin Nye, who drove truck
from Kiona to the hills yesterday says
that the auto tracks along the road
were level full of the black squirm-
ing bugs and that where the burrows
had been newly plowed along the road
side paths foot deep had been worn
in the loose earth by the insect army.
Fearing that the invaders might be
hungry by the time they reach the ir-
rigated sections and feed upon grow
ing crops Mr.. Nye this morning con-
suited County Agent Georgeson who
said he had encountered the bug army
yesterday near Kiona. He classified
the insect as the common sand beetle
which by nature is not vegetarian
and said there is no cause for alarm.
