Fruits are chiefly valuable for their
sugar, acids and salts. Bananas, dates,
figs, prunes and grapes, owing to their
large amount Of sugar, are the most
nutritious. Apples, lemons and
oranges are valuable for their potash

WARNING TO DRIVER

Homemade and Effective Hot
Motor Alarm for Autos.
Any Man With Little Mechanical

i Main Tube Of Thermostat
Is Made Of Bakellte.

Below is an illustration that shows
q homemade and very effective hot
motor alarm. Any car owner with a
little mechanical ability can easily
build one. The sketch shows a Sec
ton Of the radiator at the top Of the
water chamber. The main tube Of the
thermostat device is made Of bakelite
or one of the impregnated bakelite
fibers that Is water and steam proof.
The top Of this tube Is threaded into
bracket which Is in turn soldered
into the neck Of the radiator. The
lower end Of the tube Is also
threaded into the mercury chamber
which Is made Of fiber. This chamber
is locked and made leak-proof with a
nut. At the upper end Of the tube is
the contact which is provided with an
extension contact Of brass and which
Is also led out through brass ribbon

the holes stones and other obstruc-
tons. Then, with his attention fixed
upon the particular thing or place he
is avoiding, he is unprepared for the
next one, which he has not seen.
The human eye is like a camera in
this respect that when focused upon
the distance the immediate foreground
Is also in fairly good focus, but when
focused only few yards or two or
three rods ahead, the background Is
very in1istinct. Consequently the mo-
torcar driver who watches the road at
the point Of disappearance finds that
the foreground takes care Of Itself
that is, he subconsciously directs the
movements Of the car without any
distraction Of his attention from what
Is coming farther on. SO his car fol-
lows straighter course, with long,
easy sinuosities that do not cause any
swayfng of the body, and his compan-
Ion motorists scarcely realize that
there are any bad places in the road
over which they are travelling.
Similarly in city traffic the proficient
driver watches the movements of all
the vehicles well in advance and, by
judging their speed and noting their
direction Of motion, is on the alert for
the slightest sign Of IN intention to
slow down or turn into side street or
pass around wagon or car going in
the same direction. He governs his
own movements accordingly, and cas-
lily avoids liability Of running into an
other vehicle.

speed, preserve an almost straight
course, with scarcely perceptible devil
atoms when the road is straight, avoid
ing small Instructions on the surface
as If by good luck more than inten-
ton, and never getting into tight
places in traffic that require sudden
dexterous movements to prevent col
lsion or other accident.
On the other hand, there are drivers
who dodge every little hole, stone,
horseshoe and broken bottle with a
short turn Of the steering wheel that
results in an unpleasant swaying Of
the car body; who slow up and start
ahead with annoying frequency and
are repeatedly treating their compan-
ions in the car to thrilling moments
Of suspense as they narrowly avert the
running down Of slower moving Pc
destrian or a cyclist.
Looking Ahead.
These differences are noticeable
alike on city streets and country
roads, and are amply sufficient to
make it a delight to ride with one
friend at the wheel and almost tor
ture to sit in the car behind another.
You may be unconscious Of the pre-
else reasons that give you confidence
In the one and make you apprehensive
with the other, yet the feeling is there.
In all probability the secret lies in this
fine point in driving an automobile
the distance ahead Of the car at which.
the driver focuses his gaze.
The proficient driver has early
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1921-12-10

learned to watch the road far In ad-
vance Of his car-as far, In fact, as
the road is visible. On a straight,
level road this may be several miles,
on winding course as far as the next
turn; on billy road the crest Of the
next rise, and on city streets as far as
the state of the traffic permits the way
to be seen clearly.
Following this practice all bad
places and small objects on the surface
Of the road are seen long before the
car comes to them, and almost uncon-
sciously the car is steered to avoid
them. The action begins so early that
the movement Is practically impercer-
tible to other passengers, and the driv
er does not find it necessary to keep
his eyes fixed upon the spot or object
until 1t has passed; he has early in
sured that it will not be struck by
the wheels, and so continues to keep
his eyes focused away ahead Thus
he avoids dropping his eyes to watch
all such near objects and raising them
again to the focusing point, prac-
tice that becames wearisome to the
driver and gives rise to unexpected
emergencies.
Indifferent Drivers.
The novice or Indifferent driver who
concentrates much of his attention on
the road directly in front of his wheels
does not see impedimenta far enough
in advance to begin a gradual move
ment in avoidance Of them, but must
make quick turns to swing out around

ENGLAND SENDS NOTE
LORD cURZoN OUTLINES VIEWS
AS REGARDS MANDATEp
TERRITORY.

London, April 6.-American conten-
lions for equality of treatment for the
citizens of all nations In inundated ter
ritory are held by the British govern
ment to be scarcely consistent with
the attitude of the United States to-
ward American oil interests in Mexico.
The British view Is expressed In long
reply to Secretary Colby's note OF last
November 20 made public now.
The note, signed by Lord Curzon,
secretary of state for foreign affairs,
was delivered March 1, and was in an
swer to Secretary Colby's exceptions to
the San Reno agreement between
Great Britain and France relating to
petroleum resources in Mesopotamia-
That agreement, Lord Curzon said,
was not fully understood, 1t appeared,
adding that it "aimed at no monopoly
or exclusive rights"
The MesopotamIa agreement was
said by Lord Curzon to be subject to
oil concessions in the vilayets of Bag
dad and Mosul granted to British In
terests before the war and not to be
treated merely as matter of abstract
principle" without reference to pre-war
negotiations.
Rights acquired In Palestine by the
Standard OIL Company "are no strong
err" than these British rights, the note
added.
Request of the American govern
ment that British rights thus acquired
be dlsregarded. Lord Curzon added,
was scarcely consistent with the atti-
tude adopted by the United States in
regard to similar United States inter
ests In oil properties in Mexico"
The British note expresses agree
ment with the American argument
that the worlds oil resources should
be open for development without ref
erence to nationality, but notes that an
act Of the Philippine Legislature in
1920 reserves development of public
mineral lands there 70 citizens of the
United States or of the Philippines.
Such legislation cannot but be re-
garded "as in contradiction of the
United States" 1t continued. and
added:
I'm this connection, l observe that
Mr.. Colby does not attempt to refute
tie statements contained in my note
of August last, concerning the action
taken by the United States govern
ment to prevent the exploitation by
British interests of such resources In
Haiti and Costa Rica."
