Proper Care of Tires
Makes Them Last Longer

Tire manufacturers have complied
some very interesting figures regard
ing tires which have become unserv-
iceable prematurely. One manufac-
turer states the loss of tires ruined
before they become worn out through
carelessness on the part of owners
amounts to $1000O0,000 annually,
which loss could almost be entirely
eliminated. Another manufacturer
says that one out of every three tires
used is on wheel out of alignment
or one that is wabbly, causing the
tread to wear down quickly, due to
unnatural causes. Still another states
that of tires which do not give COM
plete satisfaction 80 per cent of the
trouble Is due to the fact that the
owners do not carry sufficient air
pressure and do not have small cuts
repaired on time.
Sunlight, heat, rain and cold are
elements destructive to the life of rub
ber-not so much while in service, but
that extra tire hanging on the rack
will suffer If not properly covered.
The rubber will crack.

GETTING STARTED
IN COLD WEATHER
What to Do When Gas Does
Not Vaporize Readily;
Choker Trouble.
by ERWIN GREER; President S Greer Col

fBy ERWIN GREER, President Greer Col.
lege of Automotive Engineering, Chicago)
OF course the principal difficulty in
starting a car when 1t is cold Is that
the gasoline does not vaporize readily
and combine with air into combust-
ible mixture. Understanding this, do
not wear out the storage battery with
the starter or your patience with the
crank handle with a fruitless endeavor
to start something. Use your head
instead of your arm. The car will start
easier, for neither headstrong nor
armstrong starters are worth while.
Open Choking Device.
AS soon as the engine starts 1t is
very important that the choking de-
vice be opened partially, depending
upon the temperature until the engine
heats up, and then fully closed. 9th
erwise the excess of gasoline will
cause the engine to run sluggishly.
Indeed, 1t may load up the cylinders
with such a rich mixture that the en-
CINE may stop again. This in turn will
make 1t harder to start the engine
than before. Do not open the choker
again If the engine stops from this
cause. Get as much air In as pos
sible while you crank the engine and
thus approximate correct mixture.
If the use of the choker device fails
to start the engine the only thing left
to do is to apply heat to the intake
manifold. You may pour a little hot
water over the manifold. The intake
will get warm enough this way In
little while. But a surer way is to
wrap a cloth about the manifold and
empty the teakettle slowly upon 1t. Ex-
IRENE care must be taken not to get
any water on the high-tension igni-
ton terminals or in the float cham
Der of the carburetor. Water will not
pass through the spray nozzle and
tiny globule will stick there and hold
back the gasoline.
To Warm Carburetor.
Practically all modern carburetors
have some sort of warming device to
heat the gasoline and air entering the
mixing chamber Some get air from
stove or hot-air furnace attached to
the exhaust pipe and some depend on
hot water from the cooling system.
Neither Of these will get into action,
however, until after the engine has
been running some time and will not
help the cold-morning troubles of the
owner. If there is hot water jacket
on the carburetor, persons who drain
the cooling system on cold nights will
aid starting materially If they fill the
radiator with hot water in the morn
ing just before 1t is time to start the
engine. This warns the entire engine,
so that condensation is not likely to
occur.

Lean Gas, Pop, Pop, and
Your Motor Goes Dead

On a bright snappy morning you
step on the starter and the motor
starts. runs for second, and stops.
but when you feed little more gas,
pop, pop" and the motor dies.
That is caused by too lean a mix
ture. But you ask yourself why-why
does 1t pop"
First you must form mental pic
ture of the four cycles or strokes of a
piston, namely, the Intake, compress
sion, power and exhaust strokes; also
picture the valves, on the intake stroke,
as the piston goes down. The intake
valve opens, allowing the suction of
the piston to draw gas from the car
buretor into the cylinder; then the in
take valve closes, the exhaust valve
also remains closed, and the piston
starts up on compression stroke. When
1t reaches the top dead center or 10
degrees past, the spark occurs, and
the compressed gas explodes and
drives the piston down on the power
stroke. The exhaust valve then opens
as the piston comes up, and forces the
burned gases out through the exhaust
valve, manifold, and out the muffier.
When the mixture Is too lean there
still remains in the cylinder certain
quantities of burning gases which can
not be forced out by the piston on ex
haust stroke. Under this condition, az
the intake opens and the piston starts
down on the next intake stroke, tht
burning gases, which still remain in ths
cylinder, ignite the new intake charge
and the flash is followed out the In
AXE valve to the intake manifold. theI
the carburetor, hence the pop.

Good Information About
Various Engine Knocks

Are you familiar with the different
knocks an engine makes so that you can
tell one from the other? Engine
knocks fall naturally into four classes
spark, overheating. carbon and loose
or worn parts.
Spark knock is due to spark being
advanced too far, particularly when
going up hill. The engine slows
down and the explosion comes before
dead center, causing knock. If spark
is retarded the knock disappears.
Overheating causes knock by firing
the gas before the piston reaches M
per dead center on the compression
stroke. The exploding gas expanding
meets the piston going up and makes
a knock. Overheating may be noted
by steam at radiator.
Carbon knock is caused by red hot
carbon in cylinder head setting fire to
the mixture when the gas has been
compressed to certain point. Re-
move a spark plug and look in cylIn.

them what fun she could be they had
visited the hen coop and the hens had
showed how they did their marketing.
True, q good deal of their food was
given to them, but they looked about
for things to eat, too, picking about the
ground and seeming to be very happy
and satisfied about it.
They had gone to the store and
asked the grocer what he had to sell
them.
They had not cackied:
snow, be sure you give me the very
best, Mr.. Grocer"
No, they had just taken what they
about 1t.
She had been to visit Dan many
times, too. Dams mother and father
were wonderfully good. They didn't
seem to mind company in the very
least They always had such good
things to eat tand hens aren't the only
creatures who like to pick up delicious
bits).
Besides 1t was much nicer for people.
Food was put upon a table for them,
fixed so attractively. Dams mother
was wonderful the way she could make
good things to eat.
Even Dams father was pretty smart.
He could make delicious sandwich
and he used to have way of arriving
with box of candy in his pocket.
He didn't keep 1t in his pocket
eitherl
Then there was always fruit dish
filled with fruit too.
But she hadn't seen Dan for some
time
st. Valentines day came. and with
1t came quite lot Of mail.
There was a pretty valentine from
her little friend and neighbor, Lucy.
Lucy had made it herself and there
were hearts and punches Of flowers
and beautiful ladies pasted upon a
white card. A very handsome home
made valentine, and she liked 1t so
much. Lucy had been quite clever
about making it, too. There were really
very few spots of mucllage showing

very few spots, indeed.
She had been given, too, q little
bunch of tulips-red and pink tulips.
Her mother made her some chocolate
caramels and wrote her little verse.
and she had two other valentines be-
sides all this.
But there was one other-and oh,
that other was a beauty!
And it came from Dan! Dan had
not forgotten her and 1t made her so
happy she shouted with delight:
"a valentine from DAM A valentine
from Danr"
On top of all was heart made Of
paper lace-a very magnificent heart,
with little bells and smaller hearts
upon it, and a little pink rose, too. 1t
was open in the center part of the
heart and through the opening could
be seen the picture Of boy--a boy
