United States grades for peaches
have been reissued by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The grades contain only minor
changes from those recommended in
1921.
In past years peaches have been
graded chiefly with regard to size.
The United States grades are based
wholly on market quality. Under his
term are included such factors as
color, maturity, general appearance
and freedom from insect and fungous
injuries. Minimum sizes nave not
been specified for the various grades,
but the numerical and minimum
size or style of pack of the peaches
must be stamped on each package.
This is a well established practice in
handling boxed apples and citrus
fruits.
Meet Commercial Needs.
The No, l grade is designed to meet
the normal commercial needs of the
trade and consuming public by elm
mating damaged stock which might
cause loss in transit. 1t also pro-
vides that the peaches shall be of one
variety, firm, mature and well formed,
and free from growth crack, cuts. skin
breaks, worm holes, and from damage
caused by dirt, scsb, scar. scale. hail,
disease, insects or mechanical or other
means.
The No. 2 grade includes peaches
Of one variety which are firm, mature
and free from worm holes or serious
damage caused by disease, insects or
any other means.
A fancy No. / grade is also provid-
ed for those who desire to pack an es-
p~ecially fine product. In this grade
will be packed only peaches which are
free from all damage by insects or dis
eases and which in addition have a
| specified amount of red color. This
amount has been fixed at so per cent
for such varieties as Carman and Hiley
and at % per cent for Elberta and
j. III. Hale and other similar varieties.
The departments action in reissu-
ing h grades is the result of the
favorable acceptance and use of the
grades last year by growers associa-
lions, state marketing officials. and
the trade generally. During the early
Investigations by the department there
was considerable skepticism as to the
~practicability of formulating grades
which would be uniformly acceptable
to both northern and southern dis
trlcts. but actual use of the grades on
a large scale under the supervision of
specialists of the bureau of markets
and crop estimates has won over many
of eve the most conservative opera
tors.

Economy Of Maintenance
Are Features Claimed.

Combining as it does the advantages
of extreme s%turdiness with maximum
flexibility and an economy maintenance
and operation that is probably I'M
anualIed by any car built in America,
the new Overland commercial chassis
Is truly an innovation in the llgnt de-
livery field.
Factory tests as well as records OF
users. show an average of To to ~
miles per gallon of gasoline in city
traffic. and an oil consumption that Is
almost negligible.
Equipped with electric starter and

al advantage since it eliminates the
necessity of drivers permitting the
motor to run during each stop II
order to avoid cranking-the OverlanC
commercial chassis sells for S45O.Ot

10 commercial use Of a development
that has been in general use in the
navy for the last five years. 1t was
installed experime ntally in 1907 for
communicating between the ships OF
q fleet.
Many Of the great radio telegraph
plants that now encircie the globe
are owned and operated by the navy.
Without the navy's interest, expert
ments and research, as well as their
substantial contracts, for apparatus
the radio industry in this country,
it is said, would be in foreign hands.
The radio compasses that flank our
great seaports are owned and operated
by the navy, but through their use any
vessel can be told to a degree what
her direction is from any station with
in call and thus fix her position wheth-
err in fog or storm. This makes for
better navigation and saves many O big
liner from disaster as well as delay
in making port.
Static interference Is an element to
be reckoned with in all phases OF
radio work and has never been en-
tirely eliminated. The navy depart
ment, however, has been engaged in
research work looking to the elimina-
ton of static longer than any other
government department. While re-
suits have been attained which have
reduced interference from this source
to about half, it has not yet been COM
pletely removed.

Most Motorists Know
Less About Battery
Than Rest of Auto

Ask n automobile service or repair
man. and he will tell you that the aver
age motorist knows less about the op-
Grafton of the electrical system on his
car than he does about almost any
other part. And this in spite of the
fact that he depends upon it for the
force that starts his engine, provides
his lamps at night and is the very life
of his engine.
Most car drivers understand the
workings of gears, clutches and trans
missions. They have studied sectional
drawings and have seen these parts
demonstrated at auto shows and sales
rooms.
Rut the reason for the powerful
click" of the SNUG little storage bat
terv is not as thoroughly understood
and generators, distributors, ammeters
and the like only add to the general
| confusion, You can't see what makes
il work. you know it does and that's
all there is to it. Diagrams and charts
are but little better when it comes to
making the electrical system perfectly
clear.
While there is nothing extraordinary
connected with battery care and oper-
alton. too few people want to take the
trouble to master the subject. THAI
indifference is exactly what puts the
serve" in battery service for as We
there is no other way to get totally
satisfactory results.
The Willard Storage Battery com
pany. represented by the Auto Electri'
Shop in Great Falls, was n of thu
first to recognize the need for a ma
tionwide service organization. At tn
present time more than Is service sta
lions in the state of Montana are func
tioning as battery headquarters II

terry men lift a load of worry u car

The motor tourist who spends

,.,,s AUTO THIEVES CONVICTED

That the Dyer Anti-Theft Automo-
bile law is working effectively is evil
denced by the fact that 2,120 stolen
automobiles have been recovered and
that 2.773 arrests have been made. out
of which lib persons were convicted
with an average sentence of about
two years per person.
The main point in the law is that
the transportation of stolen motor We
hicles from one state to another is
an act coming under federal juris-
diction and hence punishable in federal
courts. The law has been in effect
since October, 1920. The good work
has been done by the bureau of in

audiOn reception.
With a coil of this kind any desired
wage range may be obtained from 200
TO 1000 meters by simply varying the
number Of turns of wire cut into the
circuit with the circular disc switch.
The minimum number of turns TO be
wound on the coil prior to tapping in
the single pole switch would be 90.
This permits the reception of signals
from transmitting stations of 400
meters and less. For reception of
signals of over 400 meters wave length
the minimum number of turns should
be $50. Taps should be taken from the
remainder of the coil at intervals of
approximately every II or Is turns,
and fastened securely to the contact
points of the circular disc switch

CREDIT DUE NAVY

the navy for its pioneer work in many

not generally known:
In the electrical field the navy was
the pioneer in many lines. Starting
with the incandescent lamp. every new
electrical discovery was fathomed and
adopted by the nav before its COM
mercial use had been found practical

L~iFE-SAVING FENDER

To act in emergency as a l~ife-saving
fender, a substitute for the ordinary
automobile bumper, occupying about
the same space, is described and illus
trated in the October Popular Mechan-
les Magazine. The fender extends
clear across the front wheels of the
vehicle, and comprises parts that, when
released by the operation of the emer-
gency brake, automatically unfolded a
strong curtain or flexible shield, which
reaches to the ground. The result is,
that, if a person is struck by a vehicle
equipped with this fender, the yielding
cloth shield will push the person ahead
of the car for the short distance that
is required to stop the machine with
the emergency brake.
A parked car should have its lights
