What is the greatest drain on an
automobile storage battery? OPP
Grating the starting motor? Frank
Scheck, of the USL Service Station
representative for this locality says
that under no condition should
this motor be used in running the
car. If it is, permanent damage
may result to the battery.
1.-The storage batter is not too
intricate mechanism for the mo-
torist to master at least its funda-
mentals. For example. he should
know a little more than merely
keeping the plates covered with
electrolyte by adding pure dis
titled water occasionally. He
should know something about
electrolyte and how battery plates
wear out. lie should understand
the normal specific gravity of this
fluid, so that he will have bait
terry recharged and the conditions
affecting it rectified before it is too
late.
Furthermore, he should be able
to recognize the difference be-
tween up-to-date machine-pasted
plates and the old-style handmade
plates. The greater pressure used
in the manufacture of machine
pasted plates and the resultant
greater density and tougher struc-
ture make these plates more dura-
BILE. They are able to resist longer
the wearing out action to which
they are subjected"

DON'T BUY BATTERY
WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT

81 wonder how many motorists
stop to consider that batteries are
different on the inside" said Mr..
Joyce, of the local Vesta Service
station.
ITO those not familiar with bat
terry construction one battery looks
pretty much like another, especial
ly on the outside.
"But it is what is in the battery
that counts In service. 1t is the
quality and kind Of plates and sep
arators and how we'll they are de-
signed to do the work required of
them that really makes a battery
worth while.
"Take for example Vesta I'm

ed features that make the Vesta
different on the inside. These pat
ented differences are responsible
for the high reputation for service,
which Vesta batteries have been
rendering.
Every motorist when buying a
battery of any make should inves-
tigate thoroughly and be sure he
knows Just what Is inside the box

highways leading to the farms and

The cotton pods seem to bed down
in the sand of the road and give
good traction surface, especially
for light automobile traffic.
That cotton, maker of fortunes
during the war years of 1917 and
1918, should be SO valueless that
1t can be used for making roads,
is due to the collapse of the cotton
market in late 1919 and early 1920.

been sharp revival and the cot
