Copper As a Cooler

Have YOU ever stopped to recall
that copper plays an important part
in the cooling of the engine of your
car and that in the near future it
Will play an even greater part?
Copper is very efficient as n me-
dunn of heat transmission, just as it
is good conductor of electricity.
For this reason it has generally been
used for the core of the radiator so
that the heat carried to 1T by the
circulating water would be quickly
absorbed by the air drawn through
. the radiator. 1t has been known for
some time that if copper could be
: wrapped around the cylinders the
medium Of water Jackets and the
water system could be eliminated
The radiator could be Joined to the
cylinders. in other words.
But the difficulty has been in find
ing a way to unite the copper fins
With the cast iron of the cylinders.
Now that this method has been dis
covered, and the copper cooling
process actually in use on one of the
1923 cars, it will be interesting to sec
how metal can compete with water
as an accessory to air cooling-for it
must be remembered that whether
the heat is transferred by water or
copper the engine is essentially air
cooled.
True envy is the feeling that comes
over a man with dead battery when
he sees his rciehbcr backing out the

OUT.GROWN OUR RECOLLECTION

Friday last Charlie Laymance, of
Mansfield, blew into the office and
wanted US to guess who he was. We
combed over our memory pretty thor
oughly and failed to catch on. Then
he revealed his name. AS it has been
about SO years since We last saw MIN,
and he was about Is years Of age at
that time we had pretty valid ex-
cuse for failing to place him right off
the bat. For years Mr.. Laymance has
lived at Mansfield and has passed
through the depressing hard times
that that locality has suffered during
the past few years through the failure
of crops. His report of the conditions
in Douglas county through the result
of the drouth is anything but pleasant
TO listen to. However there is bright
promise of large grain crop this
year and he predicts that 45 bushels
to the acre will be no uncommon yield
although he is pessimistic as to the
benefits that will accrue to the
grower. He anticipats low prices for
wheat and states that the cost Of har-
vesting will absorb much Of the reve-
enue from the crop. Mr.. Laymance
was on his way to Grand Forks, B. g..
by QUITO on a combination business and
pleasure trip.
