Few Motoring Thoughts
Well Worth Remembering

If spark plug is dead the porce-
lain shell will not be as hot as that of
the other plugs. Do not attempt to
feel the shell while the engine is run
ming.
If an engine continues to run little
after the ignition is switched off it is
excessively heated. Red-hot particles
of carbon and the hot metal parts
themselves will set off the gas as each
piston congresses its charge. Also,
gases tend to ignite themselves upon
compression.
Worn universal joints can be Kept
from rafting and from further ex-
cessive wear by frequent and constant
greasing, especially in warm weather.

COOLING SYSTEM
FOR WINTER use
Denatured Alcohol Favored
to, Prevent Freezing.

The ordinary cooling system holds
about three and one-quarter gallons
Of water. IF one gallon of denatured
alcohol is added to two and one-quar-
ter gallons of water, to fill the radi-
ator, the driver will have about a 80
per cent solution, which will not
freeze until the mercury gets down to
10 above Zero" says a bulletin issued
by the mechanical first aid department
of the Chicago Motor club. "This is
satisfactory for most conditions. even
If the thermometer may be hanging
around the zero mark, because it
takes some time for car to cool
down to the temperature of the air.
One and one-third gallons, however,
a 40 per cent solution, will give Inn
zero, and If the car is left In an I'M
heated garage over night this is safer.
OF course, If real old-fashioned cold
snap comes on, the safest thing to do
Is to see that the radiator contains
$3.50 solution Of alcohol and water.
Denatured Alcohol Harmless.
"In buying alcohol for the radiator,
only denatured should be accepted, as
1t is harmless to the radiator, hose
connections, or engine, whereas wood
alcohol usually contains free acetic
acid which is harmful to these parts,
and while it is a slightly better anti
freeze than denatured alcohol it Is
not enough to warrant its cost.
"The trouble with alcohol Is that
1t boils at somewhat lower temper
allure than water, and although this is
not drawback from the standpoint Of
heating, it means that it will evapor-
he has enough alcohol in his radiator
unless he makes a hydrometer test.
Regular hydrometers for testing
the specific gravity Of anti-freeze
solutions are on the market. In the
ordinary hydrometer sample is
taken in the usual manner, but un-
like the battery test, the desirable
thing is to have as low a reading
as possible. It is also important that
the reading be taken In place where
the temperature is not below 55 de-
grees Fahrenheit. If the reading is L.
600, then you have pure water, which
will freeze at 80 degrees above zero.
The presence Of alcohol will lower
the specific gravity, and also will
lower the temperature at which it
will freeze.
Find Gravity of Water.
with a hydrometer reading from
1000 down to 0945O or lower. the
specific gravity Of the water can be
found. If, for example, 1t is found to
be O.9633, then the radiator contains
35 per cent Of alcohol, and will not
freeze at temperatures above degrees
above zero. When the temperature is
10 degrees below zero the radiator
will require about 46 per cent of
alcohol, which will show 09498 spe-
cif1c gravity on the hydrometer.
"If the car has cooling system
the capacity Of which is two and one
half gallons, of which one gallon is
40 per cent, the addition Of one gal
lon of denatured alcohol to such a
cooling system should produce a n.y.
drometer reading of 0.9570 which will
serve as a protection against freezing
down to temperature of two degrees
below Zero"

JacOby-H Hutchinson.

The marriage of Martin JacOby and
Mrs. Frances Hutchinson last week
caused an unusual stir in our quiet
community. The serenade following
the homecoming from BOzeman,
where the knot was tied, was quite a
lively affair. Mr.. Jacoby was expect
ing something of the kind, and just
about dark put a fresh coat Of red
paint on the gate and fence, and when
his friends and neighbOrs gathered in
the twilight, with their musical in
struments consisting of tin pans and
horns, they found the gate locked.
After many vain attempts to open it,
they proceeded to climb over the
fance, very gracefully, no doubt, and
in so doing decorated their garments
in the most artistic manner. The
most fastidiOus were satisfied: After
a short parley and some back talk,
the crowd entered the house and the
newly married party treated them
right royalty to cigars and something
stronger than coffee. After a social
dance of two or three hours, the
crowd dispersed, leaving the happy
couple with best wishes for future
happiness and prosperity. Three

About the BOzeman Hotel.

The furniture, ETC., Of the Bozeman
hotel were sold at sheriff's sale on
Thursday to R. B. Turner for the sum
Of $4,000. It is reported that "Bob-
bic" and his father have q further
claim Of about 100000 against the
hotel company, and many Of our gen
erOus citizens are beginning to won
der where the $4,000 went which
they contributed towards the enter
prise.
To an inexperienced person in such
matters, the history of the hotel ap-
pears somewhat enigmatical. Accord
ing to the statements of those who
are in a position to know whereof
they speak, the hotel was stocked for
$4,000, all Of which is reported to
have been paid in full; then it was
m~ortgaged for 100000 which, with
the contributions of BOzeman citizens,
amounting to $4,000, would place the
Ostensible cost Of the structure and
furnishings at 1920 1000. At a liberal
estimate, it is admitted that the no.

Benham's Unique Menagerie.

W. B. Benham is getting quite an
interesting menagerie of his own. So
far it consists principally of mountain
sheep, of which he has quite an as
sOrtment, all captured and domesti-
Gated during the last IL months. One
of them is a large, noble-lOOking ram,
that casts a look Of proud defiance
on every stranger who puts in an
appearance, but which is sufficiently
tame, nevertheless, to come forward
when called and eat out of his keep
er's hands. Another is a full grown
eve which, unfortunately, lost her
lamb a few weeks ago. Then Mr..
Benham has n younger animal of
the same species, and as tame and
playful as a kitten. These, with a
big owl, a couple of magpies, a small
crocodile and two young ~terrapins
comprise his unique collection for the
present. He is waiting for someone
to bring him a pet rattlesnake from
some outside county, as none has
been found in the Gallatin valley since
it was first settled by Missourians.

Strawberries VS.. Winter Wheat.

vs.. Winner WueaLs
Inquiring about strawberries the
other day, Montgomery Wisner, who
is n of Gallatin county's pioneers
in their culture, remarked about as
follows:
eyes, my strawberry crop bids far
to be a little better than usual this
year. I have in about two acres
from which 1 expect to gather about
5000 quarts Of large ripe berries,
such as only the Gallatin valley can
produce. Barring hail storms, I ex-
peGt to realize as much clear profit
from these two acres of strawberries
as l do from 120 acres of land I have
in fall wheat and from which I ex-
pect to harvest almost an average
crop this year. You see, there is not
much profit in raising wheat either
at present or prospective prices.
About IS cents per bushel is the price
the mills III now paying and I look
for a decline of perhaps five cents
per bushel On account Of the general
financial depression and the tightness
Of the money market. Besides, I
hardly think that our millers are do
ing as well as they could and should
do by US on the wheat proposition.
It seems to me they could afford to
pay about SO cents per bushel for
good winter wheat, that is, judging
from the general run Of the flour
market. At 40 cents per bushel
there is absolutely no margin in
wheat, and if 1 had to- hire any con.
siderable portion Of the work done
couldn't sell wheat at 40 cents with.

KRDI KRTPPIED

Abd- -El-Krim and his doughty tribcsmen have been experiencing sad misfortunes ever since the Franco-S -Spanish-Rifian peace par leys abruptly ended. The tribesmen seem to be tired of the warfare, and ever since lrim rejected the Spanish ultimatum de- manding he and his people &C., knowledge the sovereignty Of the Franco-Spanish puppet Mulai Yu- sci, of Fez, the Sultan of Moroc- CO.," they have about decided to re- turn to their flocks, their camels and their harems.
 "Thero is no justice in this world; I go back to resume com mand of my men" expostulated the Riflan foreign wazir, Si Mo- hammed Azarkhan, when the pour parler ended in disagreement. Wazir Azarkhan suited words with action, but the tribesmen, who had expected the benediction of Allah's peace rather than a continuation of the civilihng influence of the white mans bombs dropped from the devils airplanes, called a halt to martial discipline and struggled back 10 the normalcy of their sand dune homes.
 Krim and his warriors before they got sick of war, made a heroic stand. Defeat Of the Spanish, be- fore the French became identified with the fray yielded much pres tige-perhaps too much for Krim's wcll-being. That led Krim to make his first blunder - when he at tackled the French. His second bIunder was not to accept the re- cent peace terms while both the French and Spanish thought him stronger than he has turned out 10 be during these last days of swift finish.

SHORE PROPERTY

 The point is well taken; but un- fortunately the action of the Lcgis- lature already has been taken. It means the state, regardless of the possibility of procuring other shore property for it's purpose, is intent upon acquiring the McCook land. And nothing but a decision of the Supreme court can stop it from this time on.
 Perhaps the politicians in the Legislature merely desired to show how powerful they were; and at any rate. the owners of the Me Cook property seemed to have IIt- tie Influence.

POPULATION RACE

The most astonishing thing about the biz city population race as brought forward by the latest esti- mates of tho census bureau is that pertaining to Detroit now the na- Dion's fourth city.
 When it is considered that the population of Detroit means just what it says, and does not mean an adding machine process inyolv- ing thc populations of half a dozen other cities into one pool for popu- ltiou purposes, as is the case with New York.
 noroIf's population Of moro than a million and a quarter indicates fine fastest growth Of any large city in the country. IL also indicates what lhe automobile industry can do for d city,
 Philadelphia is another city that counts is own population cxclu- sivoly, and does not try to include everything between Trenton to the north and Wilmington to the south.
 Now York is really a cougIomcra- ton of several cities. and it is a fact well known that the popuIa- uon of New York City proper - l. c.. Manhattan - is decreasing.
 According to the census cstt- mates, Boston's population is now below that Of either st. Louis or Baltimore, T. Boston included every thing around her, as New York does in great part, its population would be considerably in excess Of either Sf. Louis or Baltimore.
 The census estimates show tha, New Britain gained more than 1O.- oaa population in five years There is small doubt that this rate of growth will continue. so that by the time he next official census ar rjves the cify's population will be S0,oo0

AN OREGON UPSET

Out in Oregon. from the Snake river to the Klamath reservation, from the butte region to the pearly Pacific, the citizens on both sides Of the Cascade range have spoken. Senator Robert N. Stanneld, Re publican, failed of renomination because he was one of those sena- tors who voted dry and sometimes acted wet. It will be remembered that a year and half ago he was arrested on a charge of intoXication after creating a disturbance in an Oregon restaurant, and he did not bother to appear for trial prefer ring 10 forfeit his bond. Since that lime the belief has been current in his state that anyone could beat Stanf1eld, and at the primaries just held six men and one woman tried 1t. Stanfield himself did not poll more than 25 per cent Of the Re publican voting strength, and one Frederick Steiwer will be the Re- publican candidate.
 But there is another angle to the situation. Stanfeld is the third tried and true stand by Coolidge" Republican defeated for renomina- ton so far this year; and he makes the third of those who voted for adherence to the World Court to go down to defeat, the other two having been Mckinley and Pepper By q peculiar coincidence, the only two Republican senators who have been renominated so far Watson and Robinson - did not vote for the World Court.
 Yet the World Court was not an issue in Oregon. The real issue was that Stanfield had been arrested on a charge of intoxication. Yes, the state is dry as dry as it's great Sandy Desert. Stanfield didn't stand very well in the political field after he had made a fool of himself.
