That Alcohol Motor.
In the early days OF motoring, with
gas selling at the exorbitant price Of
IL cents q gallon, much was heard
Of how the tankage cost was to be
materially lowered by the coming of
the alcohol motor The government
lars on this problem and had about
reached a final lewiston when those
twin calamities. the great war and
the greater Volstead. swept over a
defenseless country. Under existing
conditions. goodness knows what IT
would cost to fill cars tank with
alcohol when the owner can't fill his
own for less than $40, and that. too.

rain water. The only, safe thing to
use, therefore. is distilled water This

indeed are the places nowadays
where artificial ice cannot be found.
That's the answer-melt the ice and
you have the purest possible water.
Facts and Figures.
Some idea Of the extent Of deliber
ate destruction of motor cars by fire
for the purpose of making fraudulent
claims against insurers can be formed
from tho fact that during 1921 in the
state of Connecticut about 80 per
cent of the 800 cars valued at SLIGO
900 and burned were illegitimate
losses.

b. & 0. PREPARING FOR WINTER
President, Willard Says Bad Weather
Is Expected after Fair FaM

All along the line Of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad snow plows are
being taken out and oiled ~. Prep
arations are being made for the worst
that can come by way of a snowy WIN
ter. Daniel Willard, president Of the
road, does not believe in taking any
chances in spite Of enticing fall
weather that has prevailed for more
than two months past. On the con-
trary, judging by the moderate rain
Of the summer months and the very
dry fall weather, he believes there is
likely to be more than the usual pre-
cipitation, during the winter.
While not posing as a weather
prophet, Mr. Willard thinks that the
logic Of the situation points that way.
On the whole, there is about as much
precipitation one year as another, Mr..
Willard points out. By the law of
averages, if the bad weather does
not come during one part Of the year
it is likely to come during the other
part, he thinks.
Mr.. Willard said he did not expect
there would be any suffering during
the winter through lack of coal.
"The railroads are prepared now
to handle all of the coal needed he
said. "Soft coal is moving freely and
the roads that serve the anthracite
fields are taking care of all that is
being mined. The shortage of an
thracite is mining problem and not
a railroad problem. If people cannot
get anthracite they need not be cold,
as bituminous can be used in almost
every instance"
