MILLION F0RDs SOLD.
Sales 0utnumber Production for
BY WEBSTER.

Retail sales Of Ford cars. trucks
and Fordson tractors have again ex-
ceeded the million mark for the year
1921, according to statement given
out today by the Ford Motor Com
pany:
The Ford factory and assembly
plant production figures reached a
total Of 1.050.740 cars. trucks and
tractors for the year, wfp retail
sales by dealers approximating l OBS. 600.
which in the United States alone sur
passed the 1920 retail sales record by
104.2i3 Ford cars and trucks.
Tho Ford company says the out
look for 1922 Is decidedly optimistic.
In fact, concrete evidence already
exist in that car and truck retail
sales for December, 1921, exceeded
December. 1920. ales by almost 25
per cent, and Fordson tractor retail
sales for the same periods show an
increase Of over 100 per cent for
December, 1921. as well as an in
crease over the total tractor sales
for the month of November.
These facts seem to indicate that
not only are the farmers buying
more freely. but that the general
public is becoming more responsive
and receptive. -

BY advancing the spark to dead cen
ter the explosion reaches the piston
earlier in the stroke and SO acts on IL
for longer time. This causes the en-
gine to make more power ana so II
speeds UP, which can be easily proved.
If now we advance the spark SO that
it occurs before dead center We get
the most power, as the explosion
acts on the piston for the full length
of the stroke. II We retard the spark
we have only short power stroke
and the throttle must be opened more
to give us power. This wastes gaso-
line, BY having the spark well ad-
vanced we use less throttle and cor
respondingly less gasoline.

The power plant consists of the

! Tie Fuel System.-The gasoline tank

supplied with gravity. AS the space
| under the seat Is limited. the tank is
| now placed back OF the rear axle In
! most cars. This location being below
the level Of the carbureter. some
means must be provided to raise the
air pressure and vacuum. The first
! system has an air pump which forces
air into the tank on top Of the gaso-
! line. thus forcing the liquid up to
| the carbureter. 1t also has pres

such as leakage, failure of the pump
or when refilling the tank. The

line up into the vacuum tank, from

! The Ignition System.
! The Ignition System.-In order to
ignite the explosive mixture. an cleo
trio spark is required. This jumps
| across the gap in the spark plug
which is inside the cylinder in the
combustion space or head of the en-
| gine. and so the mixture is fired. The
current comes from the storage bat

| the dash and into an induction coil
which raises its voltage from six
volts to at least 5000 volts. this high
pressure being necessary to overcome
! the resistance Of the spark gap. The

Air and Water Cooling.
The Cooling System.-As the tenn
perature Of the exploding gas is be-
tween 1000 and 5000 degrees Fahren-
heit.. there is danger Of burning the
parts to a red heat. either Of which
would cause serious trouble. Two
methods may be used to carry away
surplus heat. one by air and the other
by water.
Air cooling is simpler, but is only
! surrounded by radiating flanges. and
fan draws the cold air past these
fanges so as to carry away the heat.
The water cooling system Is more
elaborate. The upper part Of the cyl
inders is surrounded by the water
jackets. which serve to carry away
the heat The radiator allows the
heat in the water to escape to the out
| side air. The fan keeps up con-
stant circulation of air through the
radiator all the time the engine Is
running. Some systems use pump
| to assure a vigorous circulation of the
| water. but others rely on the natural
tendency of hot water to rise to give
sufficient movement. The latter Is
called "the mo- syphone system

This is the n ost elaborate Of all and
! requires most study. 1t consists of a
! starting motor to crank the engine. a
battery to provide the current, a
generator or dynamo to replace the
current used. and an ammeter to in
| dicate whether the battery is charg-
| ing or discharging. There are several
| minor parts necessary for the opera
ton OF the system. These will be de-
| scribed in their proper places.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
ro the AutomohiIe Editor:

To the Automobile Editor:
have been told that by keeping the
spark we'll advanced can get
more mileage from a gallon OF gaso-
line. II this is so, please give me the
reason. p. r. w.
Answer-If the spark is properly set
it comes just as the piston leaves the
upper dead center on the power
stroke. This is correct for starting. as
it allows the fame to act on the pis-
ton for the full length of the stroke.
But while the engine is running con-
ditions are different. 1t takes long
time for the current to flow. to set
/ fire to the mixture and for the full ex-
plosion pressure to develop. During
all this time the piston lis moving
rapidly downward and the pressure
does not reach it until the best part
Of the stroke (the upper part) Is over.

recommended. Even when the de-
sign is completely worn off dime
it is thicker than the above. and SO

Electric tape is not the best mate
rial with which to patch leaky in
sulation or the high tension wires,
as 1t is loosened by any oil getting
on 1t. This is because oil dissolves
the rubber compound which makes
it stick. Use ordinary cotton tape to
bind up the break in the insulation
and afterward apply shellac literally.
