LueR,cArIoN in SUMMER.

During the summer months the con-
ditions of operation of a motor car
are such as to make it necessary for
the owner to pay a great deal of at
tention to chassis fabrication If depre-
citation. is to be reduced.
Volumes have been written on lub-
ricants for engines, transmissiOns and
axles and still there are thousands
of cars in which parts wear out pre-
maturely because of inefficient lubri.
cation. That does not consider at all
errors made in forgetting to-1ubricate
parts. but takes into account only those
mistakes made by the owner in the
selection of lubricants.
During hot weather, all oils become
thinner due to the heat. Its there
fore easy to see that the parts will
be inclined to run hotter and that, is
why il is customary to use heavier 'hub-
~ricants. The engine heat is control.
able in summer and winter so that
while its operating temperature may
be somewhat higher during the hot
weather. it is not so much higher by
comparison with the increase in trans
mission and rear axle. An engine will
operate at 170-190 degrees and the
cooling system takes care that it does
not rise materially higher. Even then
most engines will operate better in
summer with a heavier lubricant than
is used in winter.
Undoubtedly you have noticed that
on a warn day the oil gauge does not
register as much pressure as on a cold
day. This is due entirely to the higher
heat of the oil. which causes it to be-
come thinner and exert less pressure
in being forced out of the pump. L
have told the readers of this paper
repeatedly to use the best brands of
engine oil and change that oil at in
tervsls of 600 to 500 miles or n @
each month. The crank case ought to
be drained and cleaned thoroughly and
supplyied with fresh oil. There are
many good brands which may be de-
pended on. IT does not pay to buy an
dealer happens to have. Buy branded
oils and if possible buy in sealed tins
so you can be sure Of getting what you
rore for good oil. but o will eventu-
ally pay less in repair bills.
The transmission and rear axle heats
are not comfortable. SO that in summer
the gears and bearings become very
much hotter than in winter-as a sim
pie test just hold your hand against
the transmission or rear axle housing
a hot day. But the temperature
of the housing is low compared with
that of the bearings or gears.
A good gear lubricant must do many
things. 1t must follow the gears, it
have body enough to stand
the high heats and pressures that exist
in gear trains. it must be absolutely
in action, for if there is any
the acid attacks the bearings
and soon ruins them.
A lubricant must not wear out fast.
That is a peculiar expression as ap-
piled to an oil. but cheap oils actually
go up in vapor very quickly. 1t should
be necessary to refill a tight trans
housing more than three times
a year. and at no time should there
be sufficient loss to drop the level to
a dangerous point.
For universal joints using oil. a
heavy stock as suggested for axles may
be used, but Spicer joints and many
are designed to accept a grease

Unprecedented sales are reported
this year by dealers in WHY'S Overland
automobiles, according to letters re-

company from the Willys-Overland
factory at Toledo, Ohio. In one day
last month, orders for 1,76O cars were
received at the factory.
s Some of the dealers say that Over
lands are selling just like waffles with
syrup on them. An Indianapolis man
wrote to the factory that the folks in
Indiana order 'em just like syrup. Ar

claims the record for one days sale
when on Sunday, April 8, he sold three

In spite of the impromptu occasion the
salesman started talking Overland"
When he saw that the old boy was
backtrailing it for the covers, he staged
a little midnight demonstration of his

fore dawn he had the signature of the

whole United States can shoot at for

days in a city of $4,000 people. Butte
dealers sold out their March allotment

Local dealers say that this is one of

At HUDSON
AND ESSEX PLANTS
MAKES LARGE GAIN
Despite Increase, Companies
Finds 1t Impossible to
Fill Orders.

Production of Hudson and Essex cars
for the first quarter of 1922 was 49,
per cent greater than that for the
same period last year, according to in
formation just received from Detroit
by the L. c. Power Motor
Despite this huge business Increase. the
companies find it impossible to keep
up with orders.
Shortages of Hudson and Essex cars
exist in almost every part of the coun-
try. At the end of April, the COM
panies had been unable to fill nearly
a fifth of their April orders. w. W.
Wight says. Furthermore. they have
been forced to curtaiI the demands of
nearly every one of their 81 distribut-
ors for additional cars.
Both companies were at capacity
production throughout April. Diff
Guilty in obtaining ear bodies and in
ability to manufacture more motors
were the reasons that kept that month
from setting up the greatest shipment
figure in Hudson-E Essex history.
The slogan that 1922 will be the
