The Secret of an Easy Riding Car

The automobile of today is a different machine to that of five or six years ago. Motors are more reliable, tires give two or three times more mileage, bodies are greatly improved in appearance and comfort, and they ride better —if you know how to look after the springs. I can imagine the averago motorist saying that there is not much to look after in the springs, all you have to do is to splash a little oil over them now and again. Now it may surprise you to know that it is just as easy to OVER LUBRICATE the springs as it is to not give them sufficient oil. The idea of the springs is to absorb the shocks when driving over rough or uneven roads. When your wheels pass over a bump, the leaves of the

bump the axles. You would not think of taking a heavy sledge hammer and giving the axle a few dozen heavy blows, yet the effect is just the same if your springs are so lively that they hit the axles every time you go over a big bump. In addition to this you will have large bills for broken spring leaves. If, however, you DO NOT LUBRICATE tno springs sufficiently, grit and water work in between the leaves and rust them up. You will then have TOO MUCH FRICTION between the leaves and they will have so little movement that they hardly act as springs at all, and eveiv time you go over a bump the shock nearly shakes your teeth down your throat and your car soon starts to rattle and bolts and nuts become loose in

every part. The springs' leaves should receive attention about once a month. If they are covered mud or gummy oil, clean them with a brush and sorrfe kerosene. Now tighten the bolts on the spring clips that hold the spring to the axle, as it is important they be kept tight at all times. Loose spring clip bolts are responsible for most of the broken spring leaves. The shackle bolts that hold the springs to the frame should have grease or oil forced through them at least once a week. If these bolts are not lubricated REGULARLY, the old grease or oil mixes with the road grit that works in and very soon the hole through the bolt is blocked up and the shackles squeak and rattle.

If you find you cannot force the grease through so that it oozes out at BO PH ends of the spring bushing, the best thing to do Is to jack up the frame to take the weight off the springs, then remove the bolts and clean out the holes. If there is very much play in the shackle bolt bushings, or if the bolts are worn badly, they should be replaced or they will make the car very noisy on the road. Examine each spring carefully to see that no leaves are broken. If any are, replace at once or the other leaves will break very quickly. \\ hen you have attended to the spring clip bolts ana the shackle olts. paint the spring leaves with cne of the special spring oils or ordinary lubricating oil. Do this about once a month. If you And that the springs are too lively, fit a pair of good shock absorbers and they will improve the riding qualities of any car and prevent spring breakage.

spring first take the shock, then absorb the rebound. Now here is the point you want to learn about springs. When the car passes over a bump, the shock depresses the spring, and as it comes up on the rebound. THE FRICTION BETWEEN THE LEAVES DAMPEN OR ABSORB IT. If the leave-/ of the springs are lubricated too often it makes them so smooth that there is practically NO friction between .them, then you have a car that shoots you up in the air every time you pass over a bump. When the springs are TOO LIVELY, it makes riding uncomfortable and is liable to do a great deal of damage, because the excessive bouncing flattens the springs and allows the frame to

BETTER HOUSES FORME Modern Dwellings Take Place of Squallor, Bv Times Special NEW YORK. June 25.—American bouses of the most modern type are being built in Palestine at the rate of 1,000 yearly, according to a re port received by Samuel L’ntermyer, president of the Palestine Founda tion Fund, from the Jerusalem headquarters of the fund. This building has been financed largely through long-time loans granted by the General Mortgage Bank of the Palestine Foundation Fund, to which American Jews have contributed $6,000,000. These American houses, most of them two-family concrete buildings, are gradually converting the ancient, run-down cities of the Holy Land into modern, spaciouss and clean towns and suburbs. The most remarkable example of building activity in Palestine is Tel-Aviv, which was founded In 1909 on a barren sand waste by a group of Russian Jews. It is now a modern, thriving city of almost 17,000 population and contains 1,500 building?. Larger Lamb Crop A larger lamb crop than last year’s is foreseen in reports from the native sheep areas, the increase in the com belt more than offsetting a decrease in Kentucky and Tennessee. General rains in the dry areas West of the Mississippi and warmer weather over the com belt, it is believed, will improve pastures considerably. Potato Exchange Minnesota potato growers, numbering 12,420, have organized the Minnesota Potato Growers’ Exchange, by w r hich their products will be sold under a single marketing plan. The trustees consist of six directors and a seventh representing the public. 1 Cooperatives to Meet A general meeting of cooperatives’ representatives is to take place at Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 11 to 16, at which the entire cooperative field will be canvassed and their problems discussed.

ELECTRIC LIGHT GROWS_PLANTS Scientists Declare Art ; ficial Aid Is Successful, Times Washington Bureau, 1,122 Mew York Ave. WASHINGTON, June 25.—Pretty soon you may be able to work the hack-yard garden overtime by merely turning on the electric lights at night. Electric light and sunlight are all the same to plants, the Department of Agriculture has found in experiments which confirm its discovery that seasonal blossoming and fruiting are hastened and retarded by the length of the day. In the laboratory of the Bureau of Plant Industry here. Dr. R. A. Steinberg has just succeeded in growing more than sixty species of vegetables and flowers without the aid of the sun. In the dark room experiments with plants, light rays from an ordinary electric lamp are filtered through a layer of running water which carries away most of the heat without interfering with the passage of the light. By means of colored glass or colored chemicals in the water, sunlight can be stimulated or light of w'idely different colors or spectral composition obtained. Electric switches govern the length of the "day.” sVith all the plants tested the response to the length of the day has been the same as in sunlight. Qddly enough, the electric light turned on them is soft, as experiments have proved that brilliant lights are unnecesssary for plant growth. Quarantine Widened Quarantine has been extended in New England against the gipsy moth and the brown tail moth. This is to bring under control the additional farm areas reached by these pests | during the last season.

Police were told she had been ailing since November. A husband and 'ourteen-months-old baby survive. CAMPAIGN AGREED UPON A campaign to raise from $1,250,000 to $1,500,000 was agreed upon today at the annual meeting of the Methodist State Council at Roberts Park M. E. Church, Vermont and Delaware Sts. The Rev. C. E. Bacon, trustee of the local Central M. E. Hospital, spoke on the imperative need for immediate funds. The board of trustees and Bishop Frederick D. Leete, Indianapolis area, are to confer on the matter. Hospitals at Indianapolis, Ft. Wayne and Gary are under jurisdiction of the State council. Cows Fed Minerals Cows belonging to members of the Whiteside County Testing Association, in Illinois, are being fed mineral mixture to correct mineral deficiencies which may exist in their grain and hay rations. Equal

parts of ground limestone, raw rock phosphate and salt are mixed in the proportion of four pounds to 100 pounds of grain. Screenings Valuable Half barley and half screenings, formerly considered valueless weed seed, have produced nearly as good gains when fed to lambs as barley alone, in tests recently conducted

THE principle of conservation, through efficient management and rigid economy. is so ingrained in the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) as to be fundamental to the operation of this business. Years ago, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) learned that the only way to keep a big business on a thoroughly efficient plane is to plug up the small leaks. Accordingly, painstaking attention was given to ways and means of overcoming wasteful details, unimportant and inexpensive in themselves, but taken as a whole assuming enormous proportions. The practice of economy is thoroughly grounded in the personnel of the Standard il Company (Indiana) and has profoundly influenced the activities of the Company. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is the unquestioned pioneer of conservation methods in the oil business. Back of every important innovation made by this Company stand these questions: ‘‘Does this change improve the quality and service?—Does it effect a saving?” For example, the famous Burton Cracking Process now in general use was originated to conserve the supply of petroleum—to produce a greater percentage of gasoline from crude oil, without in any way affecting the quality of lubricating oils and other primary products. The Burton Cracking Process has increased largely the yield of gasoline from a barrel of crude, thereby exerting a marked influence in keeping the price of gasoline low. Conservation led to the erection of farms of steel tanks—to insure a constant supply of crude petroleum—to enable the refiner to reduce his cost by continuous operations—to store the finished product without undue loss from evaporation. Conservation again was back of the establishment of pipe lines, because they were the most economical method of transporting oil. The conservation idea led finally to the vast distribution system which covers the ten Middle Western States and carries petroleum products from the refineries of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) to farms, factories and individual users, everywhere. The practice of economy and conservation has been a potent force in developing the splendid system which this Company offers to the thirty million people of the Middle West.
