CRIME ON MOTOR
CAUSE OF DECAY
Greasy Accommodations Injurious
to Various Connections and
Also to Insulation.

The mOtorcar's spring cleaning
should not stop with the body. top and
cushions. An engine and chassis COW
cred with grease and dirt is costly
encouragement to delaying simple ad-
justments which will save money In
repairs.
Clean the engine, springs, transmits
sion housing and other parts which ac-
cumulate sticky CRIME with kerosene,
to which some gasoline may be added.
Use wooden backed scrubbing brush
with no metal on 1t. Metal may touch
electric terminals and cause spark
which will start fire. A much bet
ter Job will result If the drip pan is
removed while the engine Is cleaned.
Cleaning Saves the Engine.
In addition to looking better and be-
ing easier to repair, clean engines
hose connections, electric insulation
and gaskets will not deteriorate nearly
so quickly.
With the springs cleaned, olling sug-
gests Itself. Be sure the grease cups
on the springs are full and screwed
down so there will be pressure. That
Is not enough to save a rusted spring,
however. Jack up the chassis and APP
ply lubricant with a paint brush or
sQuirtgun.
If the leaves Of springs are rusted
together, they usually may be pried
apart with screwdriver while the car
Is lacked up. Repair men diagnose as
a frozen" spring condition in which
all leaves are rusted into what appears
to be solid mass. Soak the frozen"
spring In kerosene and try the screw
driver again next day.
Take Balky Spring Apart.
II the spring still balks, the best
way Is to remove 1t, take it apart,
clean the leaves with kerosene, lubrl-
cate them with graphite and grease
and reassemble them.
Spring covers of leather and metal,
oil retaining cups and high pressure
lubricating systems are among recent
improvements which simplify care Of
springs. The various covers keep out
dirt and keep In lubricants so that
springs rarely need attention. High
pressure devices range In design from
those In which a screw pressure exerts
terrific force to handy affair like
pistol which Shoots grease when the
trigger is pulled.

Early Melting Hens Are
Poor Paying Proposition

What is the trouble with the poul-
try business? Why are fewer hens
kept this year? Is the poultry busi-
ness going Backward All these ques-
lions, and many more like them, have
been asked recently.
What Is the trouble with the poultry
business? Would not any other bust
ness fail If 1t were conducted as the
poultry business Is conducted? Every
female kept is not necessarily a good
money maker Some hens never lay.
Some lay few eggs. But 1t takes
hen that lays good quantity Of eggs
to pay for her feed and return q fair
profit above labor, interest, etc.
1t has been proved beyond doubt
that early melting hens are poor pro-
ducers. Hens that begin to shed their
feathers In July and August seldom
start to lay before the latter part Of
January or the early part of February.
Many poultrymen realize the necessity
Of culling out their poor producers In
order to stay in the poultry business
With the present prices of feed, it
is absolutely essential that only the
best hens be kept. One farmer last
year selected from 500 laying hens 1O4
that he considered poor producers. No
trap nests were used, but the hens
were examined from external charac-
teristics. These 104 hens were put in
a house by themselves. The following
day they laid four eggs.
The flock was again tested and the
four layers were selected, leaving an
even hundred unproductive hens. They
were carefully watched for several
weeks and did not lay an egg. At last
they were sold. Similar instances
prove that the selection of poultry
pays. Why not save the tremendous
amount Of feed fed the poor hens and
put 1t into better stock or human
food?
Increase production and increase
efficiency by keeping the late molters.
Hatch In September and thus increase
the meat and egg supply Of the coun-
try. Fall Matching Of chickens will
pay. Pullets from these matches Will
take the place Of the early molters
disposed Of. Breed only from the late
molters. Selection is big step toward
greater poultry efficiency and to a
more profitable poultry business.

Increasing Demand for
Disliked Guinea Fowls

Guinea fowls, which have suffered
unpopularity with farmers because of
pronounced propensities for noise
making during the sleeping hours of
humans, are likely to rise above this
objection in view Of a steadily increas-
Ing demand for their delicious flesh, In
the opinion Of a poultry specialist of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. Guinea-fowl raising now is
profitable side line on eastern farms
and may offer opportunities to the COM
mercial poultryman in a few cases. In

Fowl" the specialist discusses the
guinea business from the starting of
a flock to marketing the produce, which
Is largely meat.

Colony House System of
Poultry Raising Favored

One Of the many advantages of the
colony house system of poultry rails
Ing Is that the birds have ample Cd.
portunity to find animal food, such as
bugs, worms, grasshoppers, etc. This
is a very necessary part Of the diet II
you are raising poultry for the eggs
they Will produce. If you have NOV
able houses for the flock, place them
near fields likely to harbor destructive
Insects; this will protect the crop and
at the same time provide the necessary
animal food.

THE QUESTION.
What is meant by double
teaming? ! notice it in many
reports of games.

This leaves six men on the scrim-
the ends-play wide and rarely face
sive tackles and guards face seven
lies require team to have on the
1cn men face four.
On line plunges-that is. plays into
the team with the ball usually dele
gates two groups of it's linemen to
take out the two opponents on either
side of the point of attack. This is
double teaming, as two offensive men
case. For example, suppose a. play
is run between the opposing right
tackle and right guard. The team at
tacking then delegates it's left end
and left tackle to take out the oppos-
and center to take out the opposing
right guard.
Such opening, when made. permits
through this hole and knock down
opposing backfield men before the
runner gets through. Double team
other. system of line play, however,
is in vogue and will be discussed in a
later article.
