livery car owner ought to keen
the engine clean by an occasional
kerosene bath. Spray kerosene al.
over the engine and wipe off every
bit of dirt you can. This goes
for the crankcaSe as we'll as the
parts that you can see, when you
lift the hosd: Dirty oil, oil with
sediment, oil not changed for some
time are all causes OF the RAPID
engine wear.
How many car owners ever see
to it that the combination breather
and oil filter is clean on the in
side? In some designs there is
every chance for quantity of
dirt to settle on the inside, and
that is washed down into the
crankcase when the next oil filling
is made.
A dirty engine means a loss in
and d premature trip
to the repair shop, where the cost
of parts requirements will be
higher than expected. Take the
average Ford and many Of tire
larger cars and examine even the
outside of the ignition unit The
Ford timers are usually covered
with mud and dirt, and this gets
inside, cuts the segments. inter
,eres with proper ignition and
brings about the need for a new
timber in a few months. Look in
side the timer that is generally
dirty-on the outside and one will
find dirt also. Generators and
starting motors on the average car
do not get very much attention of
any kind by the owner, but they
deserve good cleaning. Sore
starting motors ere not fully en-
closed. while others, even wheE
covered, seem to accumulate dirt.
/ would suggest to the car owner
that, when he has a few hours to
spare, during any month, he give
the engine a thorough cleaning,
removing dirt from all joints, from
oil holes, and so forth.
The underneath parts of the car
are admittedly hard to get at, but
that should not be an excuse for
total neglect. Underneath the car

Align Wire Wheels
By Truing
Diameter

When truing wire wheels al
ways true the diameter first;
this is controlled by the center
and back spokes: at the same
time bring up the tension of
the front spokes, or they will
loosen up while working on the
center and back spokes. The
front spokes control the side
of the rim as vel! as the po-
sition of the hub shell from tie
back of the rim, and can be
used to bring the hub shell
down to proper position The
front spokes should be as tight
as the center and the back
spokes. If they are tighter
they will throw the wheel out
and have a tendency to spring
the shell out of true. Do not
put too much tension on the
spokes until the wheel is true.
Should the spokes in a wheel
to be trued up be badly rusted,
drop some kerosene oil or rust
remover on each spoke by the
nipple and also into the rim,
and leave over night. In the
morning adjust the wrench OH
the nipple, and while moving
it tap the spoke. This will
usually loosen the nipple. If
too tight, cut out the old spoke
and lace in a new spoke and
nipple.

CAUGHT In CORN
HUSKING MACH Ne

While the Havercroft boys were op-
Grating one of the new corn husking
machines on their farm near Bad Ma
ton, Wednesday of last week, Ralph
Havercroft had the misfortune to ge,
his right hand caught in the huskine
rollers of the machine, and his am.
was drawn into the rollers up above
the elbow. The arm was badly
crushed and bruised and II is not
known at this time whether the arm
can be saved or not.
Holman s, who were husking com
in a field nearby, heard the cry for
help and went to the assistance of the
Havercroft boys and helped to release
Ralph from the machine. He was ia
ken to DIR. Malster at Carter, who
rendered medical aid.
There have been number OF accl-
dents with these machines in various
parts of the state this fall. Those
operating the machines seem to take
some great chances while the machines
are in operation and the result is that
there have been a number Of quite
serious accidents.

WINTER DAIRYING PUTS
MORE MONEY In POCKET

Brookings, S. D.-South Dakota
dairy products would be worth six to
seven million dollars more than at
present, without any further outlay
of money, in fact at lower produc-
ton cost, by having the bulk Of the
product come at time when the price
is highest, rather than when the price
is lowest, according to Christian Lar
sen, dean of agriculture at State Col
le"e.
This could be brought about by
having the COWS freshen in the fall
when dairying can be made the main
business Of the farm, rather than in
the summer when dairying is nothing
more than a sideline, with milking
chores coming at both ends of busy
day
Mating the COWS at any time be-
tween now and the first OF February
will bring fall freshened cows.
About two-thirds of South Dakota s
dairy products are now produced dur
third during the summer. The bulk
ing the six summer months and one
of the products, in other words, should
be produced at that time of year wher
the price is highest and labor is plen
tiful.
IAN will agree that dairying i:
profitable and that South Dakota il
suited to the dairy and livestock in
dustry," saws Dean Larsen. eth
greatest drawback to furthering th'
dairy industry in the state is the scar
city and high cost Of labor. To over
come this labor problem, the dair,
farmer must choose the proper time o
year for doing the dairy work, an
that time is during the winte
months.

leaves a g.,:cf stricken father and two
brothers to mourn his death. His
mother and two sisters and three
brothers preceded him to the great

form. The father and two remaining
brothers have the sympathy OF their
many friends in their hour OF deep
sorrow.

CHRISTMAS MEANS WORK

Christmas is season of unalloyed
JOY to most everybody. The family
fircside never feels so warm as on the
great Natal Day we celebrate each
year. But while we are gathered in
the warmth of our own home IL will
not hurt us to recall the bitter strug-

We love SO well.

Williamson Would Raise
DUTY On wheat and Alfalfa

The following bill was introduced
bv Congressman William Williamson
today, relating to the importation OF
wheat and alfalfa seed:
"Be 1t Enacted by the Senate and
House of Representative of the Unit
ed States Of America in Congress AS
sembed, That OH and after the day
following the passage of this Aett,
there shall be levied and collected, and
paid upon the following articles, when
imported from apv foreign country
into the United States or any OF ITS
possessions (eXcept the Philippine Is
lands. the VIRGIN Islands, and the is
lands of Guam and Tutuila) the rates
of duty which are prescribed in this
section, namely:

l. Wheat, SO cents per bushel.
2. Alfalfa seed, 10 cents per poun'

=. AIlulld ScSu, ~ CelllS pei pouHu'
That on and after the passage of
this Act no drawback shall be allowed
upon wheat imported into the United
States for milling purposes and that
the provisions for such drawback and
refunding of duties occurring in Sec.
3l3 Of the Tariff Act Of 1922, insofar
as they relate to wheat, are hereby re-
pcalcd. "
Prior to the enactment of the 1922
Tariff Act the price of wheat at
Winnipeg, Canada, and at Duluth were
approximately the same. Since the
passage of the Tariff Act placing the
duty Of 80 per cent upon imported
wheat, the market at Duluth has been
approximately IA to 20 cents a bushel
more than at Winnipeg. 1t is con-
fidentlv believed that if the above
should be enacted into law, placing a
duty of so cents upon the importation
of wheat, that it would have the i'm
mediate effect of increasing the price
of wheat in the American market at
least 25 cents bushel.
