used by the Rapid Transit Lines
but differ from the kind used by
the Southern Ohio company.
The ordinance also puts the
unlimited power and authority
of all bus regulations strictly
under the control of the Direc-
tor of Public Safety, from whose
decisions there appears to be no
appeal.
Notwithstanding the fact that
the emergency clause was adopt
ed by council, the proposed or
dinance was given but one read
ing.
This persistent and continued
hammering against the South
ern Ohio Public Service Com
pany by certain members of the
city's official family is far from
meeting with general public ap-
proval, and several of the chief
conspirators are surely digging
their political graves SO deep
that future resurrection will be
impossible.
Sensible people, having the
real welfare and success of our
city at heart, believe in boosting
the town generally and home
products particularly. Yet there
is direct slam in the ordinance
introduced by Morgan Davis
against the style of busses man
ufactured here, and which met
the specifications and were good
enough for several larger cities
the requirements of the ordin-
ance puts them out of the run
ming, but out of town machines
are O. K.-Queer to say the
least!
This is only one among the
numerous peculiar circumstances
which have recently occurred,
and which would almost lead
one to suspect that there are
wheels within wheels which con-
troll the actions of some of our
higher ups" and that Bret
Harte's heather Chinee is not
the only fellow who was pecu-
liar for ways that are dark and
tricks which are vain."

Several years of personal obser-

thoro irrigation prior to blossoming

the wood growth, size of leaf and
general vigor Of the tree.
"Freezing is a drying process. An
abundance of moisture in the soil and
the plant reduces this drying effect
at any given temperature. In many
cases thoro irrigation prior to bios
soming time has assured fruit crop
in face of frosts which cleaned out
adjourning tracts. The use of water
or heaters are the two methods Of
frost control. In the Wenatchee-Ok-
anogan districts the occasions have
been rare indeed, when abundant
moisture would not have assured am
pie protection from frost.
early irrigation dissolves the nj
trogen in the soil and makes it avail

when the buds are most needing slim

"Apple trees in their normal habi-
tat are standing in mud at this time
of year. Here we have protracted
drought each spring from the time
the snow melts until irrigation starts.
s'This year there has been very lit

Overcome Gas Pressure
Troubles in the Tank

When the supply tank of a motor
car using exhaust gas pressure feed
to the carburetor is refilled with gaso-
line most drivers use the hand pump
provided to obtain enough pressure in
the tank to get the motor started. Gen
orally there is enough gasoline In the
carburetor to permit of some minutes
operation by which the pressure in the
tank will be raised sufficiently by the
exhaust so that resort to the hand
pump is needless On some cars the
hand pump is so rarely used that the
washers in it dry up and the device Is
rendered useless. In such cases the
desired results may be obtained by
temporarily plugging the outlet of the
exhaust pipe and then cranking the
motor. This will create excessive
pressure in the exhaust pipe, which
will be conducted through the regular
pressure piping to the fuel supply tank.
Thus a few turns of the crank will be
as effective as the pump would be If 1t
were working.

BUILDING
FEDERAL AID ROADS
VIEWED AS DEFENSE

Facts concerning the relation Of
national defense and interstate com
merce are brought out in a statement
recently issued by the American AS
ISOLATION of State Highway Officials.
when the federal aid road sys-
tenn now under construction was
planned" says the statement, ina
tional defense was taken into consid-
Grafton. The War department was
consulted as to roads that would meet
the greatest need in any lire of de-
tense, and road builders were gov
erned accordingly in the selection OF
routes embraced in the federal aid
system. In the congressional hearings
that were held, General Pershing took
part, and in the course of his testi-
mony before the senate committee on
post offices and post roads in 1921, he
impressed upon the committee the
value of the county road in times Of
war in the transport of needed food
supplies"
Ever since cooperative work began
on the federal aid system, all roads
built with federal aid funds have been
constructed, say the officials, with
military requirements in view, particu-
larly in the matter of culverts and
bridges Since the needs of national
defense have been taken into account
added security is given to the nation,
and under the provision of the federal
aid act, which promotes this phase of
national security. no state is called
upon to pay more than its due share
for this added security"
In the relation which highways hold
to interstate commerce, road officials
in their statement incidentally call at
tention to the point that federal CO.
operation in highway Improvement is
not new.
Visions of interstate highways as ma
ton developers were had as early as
1903 when the Cumberland pike was
planned by congress, and all through
the succeeding years the highways in
their interstate character have been
growing in Importance The benefits
derived from this growth" officials
add, fare not confined to states, but
come to the nation as whole"
OF the federal aid system, 53.1 per
cent is located in fifteen states. "This, >
say the officials, lis because the sys-
TEN was planned to include per cent
of the mileage in each state, this lat
ter mileage being found sufficient to
connect all county seats and market
ing centers."

Can Employ Alcohol as
Fuel for an Automobile

The same type of engine is adapt
able to the use Of alcohol as fuel as
is used today with gasoline, reports
the United States bureau of stand
ards.
This statement is made to dispel an
erroneous belief that the use of all
cohoI requires an engine of higher
compression than the type used for
gasoline. The only change needed,
saw engineers Of the bureau of stand
ards, is a larger needle valve opening
in the carburetor, to afford richer
mixture Of alcohol and air for com
plete combustion.
ssAlcohol does not require the en-
ployment of much higher compress
sion ratio than gasoline the report
reads. "Should alcohol or other fuels
Of equal anti-knock value become gen
orally available compression ratios
could be increased, and, as a conse-
quence, higher eficiencies could be at

BRAKES SHOULD
Be TESTED FTEN
Many Cars Skid Because of
Unequal Division of
Braking Power.


The brakes should be tested each
day. Before going half block from
the garage make a service test by
throwing out the clutch and applying
the brakes. If possible, select dry
spot for making this test. Under no
circumstances should the car be taken
farther If the brakes are not operat-
ing properly; drive back to the garage
and see that the faults are corrected
before driving out again.
Keep in Condition.
To keep the brakes in good condi-
ton:
(a) Once in two months remove the
rear wheels and wash the brake lin
ing in kerosene. This removes all oil
and grease which if present, take the
bite out of the brakes. Never oil
brake lining.
(b) Brakes squeal when they are
glazed or when improperly adjusted
Squealing can be often stopped by
removing wheels and roughening the
brake lining with stiff brush
(c) If the brake lining is worn down
to the rivets, sink the rivets still
farther or have the brakes refined.
(d) Wipe off and oil the brake mech
anism every 500 miles, or oftener.
(e) Make regular systematic brake
inspection habit. The loss of "a cotter
pin might lead to serious accident.
When lock washer is removed, don't
put 1t back; use a new one
Many cars skid, not only because of
slippery streets, but also because of
unequal division of braking power.
Jack up rear wheels and apply brake
far enough so that 1t is just possible
to turn one wheel by hand. Adjust
brake on the other wheel so the same
amount of energy is required to turn
that wheel by hand. Test for unequal
braking power at least once month.
Apply Properly.
Do you always apply your brake
properly?
(a) When coming to a stop on a
straight-away, shut off the gasoline
throttle and leave the clutch engaged
until just before you come to stop;
this method of stopping is especially
advisable in wet weather because it
lessons the tendency of the car to
skid. 1T also. helps to distribute the
braking power equally, and assists the
action of the brakes. Do not shut off
the ignition until after you have
stopped it may be necessary to make
a quick start
(b) In going down an ordinary hill,
leave the clutch engaged and close
the gasoline throttle. This helps cool
the engine and also makes it unnec-
essary to use the brakes.
(c) In going down steep hills or
when descending ordinary hills with.
a heavy load, put the gears in in
termediate or low speed at the top of
the hill and leave the clutch engaged.
Shut off the gasoline throttle.
(d) In making an emergency stop,
leave the clutch engaged, apply the
foot brake and pull the hand brake
but do not flock the wheels" Keep
the wheels rolling; otherwise there
is danger that the car may slide or
skid.
{e) When applying brakes never
lock the wheels. If wheels are locked.
not only does it increase the liability
of the car to skid. but it is extremely
hard on tires.

City Traffic Problems

London had it's traffic problems hun
dreds of years before the automobile
was ever thought of.
Old books set forth that, in the be-

traffic troubles were so acute that a
contemporary author wrote an article
on the subject entitled coach and

and Precedence"
Incidentally, London was then de-
