THE
LYONS DEN
By LEONARD LYONS

JAMAICA - The scrawny
chicken crossed the road, and
I knew why. It wanted to study
me. The road 1t crossed was
the high mountain path be-
tween Kingston and Ochos
Rios, lined with mimosa, tulips
and fields Of sugar cane.
Around the bend my youngest
son was helping our driver
change a flat tire. And I, using
a red silk handkerchief, was
waving traffic clear Of them.
The chicken kept blinking,
and no wonder. Only a few
hours earlier I'd presided at
a New York cafe table with
friends I'd gathered from Mos
COW, Hollywood, London. the
Middle East and Paris. And
now I was directing ox-drawn
carts, buses, burros and cars.

for once. Jones, who once sold
an encyclopedia set to a faro

speak English, found that his
talent for persuasion was use
less. Our bags had disappeared
at the airport and now, per-
haps like the machete wielders
and the women gracefully bal
ancing packages atop their
heads, the only clothes we
owned were on our backs.
My son signaled that the
flat was fixed. He'd enjoyed
this interlude. He's still young
enough to welcome such Incl
dents. In fact, he's still young
enough to enjoy travelling with
his parents The chicken
crossed the road again. Why?
Because I chased it.

fertile plains warmed by the
trade winds. "You will go raft

battery. 1t can devote its full power to starting
the engine. Don't forget to turn lights on again
when you start up.
7. Never pump the accelerator if you suspect
flooding. 1t only makes the flooding worse.
Instead, try this: Wait 2 Or 3 minutes. Then
press the accelerator to the floor once and hold
it there while the starter cranks the engine.
When the engine does start, gradually let the
accelerator return to idle position.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-02-27

ANY TIME you have trouble getting your en-
N CINE going, the first thing to do is check
the obvious.
For example, the fuel gauge. It's astonishing
how often an empty fuel tank is all that keeps
the engine from starting.
According to American Automobile Associa-
ton figures, motorists run out Of fuel more than
5000 times per day.
If you have an automatic transmission, make
sure you're starting in M and that the selector
lever is right at the letter. A fraction of an inch
either way can mean the difference between
starting and sitting there. NOTE: Some cars can
also be started in the "P" or park position.
Next step is to run through these seven tips
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-02-27

a. Get maximum value from your choke. IF
you have an automatic choke, give the accel-
orator pedal helpful tap before you start. This
sets the choke in the correct position-the way
it should be for easy starting.
NOTE: A small adjustment Of the automatic
choke can often cure cold weather starting trou-
bles Your Shell dealer can take care Of it for you
IF you have manual choke, remember to
use it! When you pull the choke out, you in
crease the proportion Of fuel in the air-fuel
mixture. Gould be all your engine needs for
start. After you've started and warmed up, be
sure to push the choke back in.
S. Wipe moisture off the distributor, ignition
leads and the ceramic tops Of spark plugs.
Condensed moisture on these parts could keep
you from getting started. And moisture can be
frequent problem in cars that are left outdoors
overnight.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-02-27

from Shell dealers. Any one of them could help
you get started.
1. Use the starter in short bursts. A long,
steady grinding runs your battery down dras-
tically In fact, if the car won't start in the first
few attempts, its good idea to wait several
minutes before trying again. This lets the bat
terry recover some Of its life.
2. If you have manual shift, keep the clutch
pressed all the way down when you're trying
to start. This bel ps to take some of the strain
off the battery, particularly in cold weather.
NOTE: An engine in good mechanical condition
should start in 3 OR seconds. Todays Super
Shell gasoline can help. During coolest months,
it contains an extra dose Of special quick-start
ingredient.
3. Tighten battery connectors. IF battery con-
nectors are loose, you may not get full battery
voltage when you try to start. With reduced
voltage, the engine is harder to start. Some
times the starter won't even turn the engine.
There's no trick to keeping the connectors
tight. All you need is suitable wrench (see
picture at Left. Even pliers will do.
IF you have repeated starting troubles, your
battery may be weak Your Shell dealer can re-
charge it-or install new one if needed.

be located in several different places, depend

Safety Council Notes

Ice and snow cause amazing in
creases in the distance moving
automobile requires to stop, the
Delaware Safety Council declared
yesterday. The actual differ
ences in stopping ability of cars
with regular snow tires with chains
as shown in tests on ice and snow,
will astonish many drivers" said
-. H. Tyler Mcconnell, president
of the council
Tests show the braking distance
OF regular tires on dry pavement
at 20 miles per hour is q feet.
This diSregardS the reaction time
= the time driver takes to get
his foot on the brake pedal =
which averages three-fourths of a
second and takes another % feet
at that speed. The 21-foot brak-
ing distance of regular tires on dry
pavement jumps to 195 feet on
glare ice, or to 60 feet on loosely
packed snow.
With snow tires the stopping
distance is ia feet on glare ice
e1iio ~ ICCt O1i lIlt SUoW. w I'LL
regular tire chains the figures
show SO feet on glare ice and 46
feet on loose snow With rein
forced tire chains the tests show
N feet on ice and 90 feet on the
snow. That is why the Safety
Council recommends reinforced
tire chains, said Mcconnell.
The figures quoted were pro-
duced after years of experiments
conducted by the Committee on
Winter Driving Hazards of the
National Safety Council.
The subject is covered in a film
on winter driving available
through the councils film library
Mcconnell recommends six basic
rules for safe winter driving. The
first is to have good tires and
chains and to remember that slow
er than normal speeds are must
on snow and ice
Second is "be able to see and
be seen. This means keeping the
windshield and windows clear, and
to be sure the wiper blades, heater
and defroster are working proper

Know The Score Before
You Make A Move

Putting lime or fertilizer on your
land without having a soil test to
show you how much of what
should go where is playing a
guessing game that may or may
not pay off, says Associate County
Agent Ed Ralph.
On your hay fields, for example,
Mr.. Ralph says you can get four
or five tons of hay, or hay equiva-
lent of grass, silage by applying
the right amounts and proportions
of fertilizer.
Be sure to indicate the propor-
tion or legumes and grasses in the
mixture form. This is important
because the fertilizer recommen-
dation is based on the amount of
legumes or grasses in the hay or
pasture mixture. In general, the
higher the proportion of grasses
the higher the nitrogen require
ment
Five years of research in Della
ware have shown a return of two
pounds OF crude protein for each
pound of nitrogen applied to grass
es. Other tests in Pennsylvania last
summer showed that 100 pounds of
actual nitrogen applied in March
gave yield increases of 3400 to
$500 pounds of dry hay per acre.
Ralph says you can get some
detailed advice on soil sampling
along with the how's, where's and
why's of soil sampling by writing
or calling him and asking for
bulletin called, Don't Guess, Have
Your Soil Tested.
This bulletin is the result of
joint effort of the Agricultural Ex-
tension Services of Delaw ware,

New Hampshire, New Jersey, New
York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island,
Virginia and West Virginia.
