WOOD SHORTAGE LOOMS, GOOLIDGE WARNS COUNTRY Grow Lumber Like Any Other Crop, President Recommends. 7! v United Press WASHINGTON. Nov. 19.—President Coolk.se today recommended as the one way to combat the growing timber shortage in this country eventual use of one-fourth the nation's area for growing of timber. In an address to the national conference on utilization of forest products the President asserted, ‘ the time is at hand when our country is actually threatened with a timber shortage.” “The era of free wild timber is reaching its end as the era of free wild food ended so long ago,” Coolidge said. “We must face the situation that we are not far from timber exhaustion.” “Grow Our Wood" The President advocated "growing our wood from the soil like any other crop.” “Strtnge as It may eem,” he said, ‘ the American people, bred for many generations to forest life, drawing no small mea-ure of their wealth from the forest, have not yet acquired the sense of timber as a crop. Those immense stretches of cut overland, mostly too rough or -too sterile for tilling, have not awakened us to their vast potential worth as growers of wood. “Fully ono-f urth of our land area ought to be kept in forest —not poor dwindling thickets or scrub, but forests of trees fit for bridges and houses and ships.” The President called attention to the following facts about the timber industry. "Os the old forest the first explorers met. we have in area cr.lv one-six:h left and in bulk timber less than one-third. “From over-cutting and fire we have left something like fifty million acres of denuded lands, most of it unfit for fatm ng. l.ong Freight Hauls “Three-fourths of our cut is still from virgin forests, difficult and distant of access, so their products must pay for long freight hauls tc market.

TIMEL'

If you go out to the garage some morning and find that the engine will not start, do not immediately jump to the conclusion that there is something wrong with the carburetor or ignition. The trouble may be caused by some water that has frozen in one of the gasoline lines. If you have a special gasoline filter between the gasoline tank and the carburetor, you will have noticed when cleaning it out that there was usually a small

amount of water drawn off with the sediment. Now during the summer months, this water does not trouble you very much, but during the cold weather it may cause a great deal of trouble by freezing in the line and blocking the flow of gasoline from the tank to the carburetor. Sometimes the water collects at the bottom of the vacuum tank, sometimes in the line between the vacuum tank ind the carburetor and sometimes in the float chamber of the carburetor. To project yourself against trouble from this source draw off about half a pint of gasoline from the bottom of the gasoline tank and the same amount from the bottom of the

vacuum tank and the carburetor. This precaution taken about every six weeks during the freezing weather will practically eliminate any possibility of blocked gasoline lines. During the warm weather the temperature of the air is hot enough to vaporize the gasoline mixture, but during the cold weather it is necessary to heat the mixture in some way. This is usually done by means of

HEATING THE GASOLINE MIXTURE a.

heated, it enters the cylinders in the form of big blobs of gasoline and Is not completely burned. The result of this is that the motor loses power ! and the oil in the crankcase is destroyed by being diluted with this unturned gasoline which is drawn down into the crankcase past the piston rings. In addition to this, you will find that the engine carbons up ver.u ; quickly and you may also have trouble with the spark plugs sooting up and ; causing misfiring. To make starting easier it is usually necessary to adjust the carburetor so that the mixture is made slightly richer for The cold weather but before I doing this it is wise to make certain that all Joints between the carburetor |and the intake manifold are air tight. A slight air Dak during the warm weather will not be noticed, because most carburetors are tuned up so | that they are a little richer than absolutely necessary. During the col i weather however, even a small air leak will make the engine very hard to start and will make it practically impossible to get the engine to idle slowly, i The easiest way to test for air leaks is to fill an oil can with gasoline th. ri | while the engine is running, squirt a little gasoline around each of the joints between the carburetor and intake manifold. If you notice that the c-nßine speeds up a little when you squirt some gasoline around one particular joint, then you know that It is allowing air to leak in. Try tightening the joint. If this does not cure the trouble, you will have to remove th- manifold and fit anew copper gasket. Sometimes if th** leak Is a very small one It can be stopped by painting the joint with some shellac. It is better, however, to fit anew gasket and cure the trouble permanently. N> xt week I will show you how to overhaul the Ignition system an l tune up the carburetor so that the engine can be started easily. << op;, right, 1924, by the S. N. I. Technical Syndicate.)

There is a band on the air intake ng the carburetor that covers or uncovers a series of holes and enables you to control the amount of hot air taken into the carburetor. When this band covers the holes, all air being taken into the carburetor is heated, but when the band is turned round to un cover the holes, cold air is taken In Now that the cold weather is here, the band on the air intake must be turned to cover the holes so that the air being taken into the carburetor is heated.

Bv United Press WARROAD, Minn., Nov. 19.

THE Bureau of Mines (Washington, D.C.) places the domestic consumption of gasoline for August, 1924, at 819,467,892 gallons, an increase over July consumption of 22,001,302 gallons and the highest monthly consumption of gasoline ever reached in the United States. Notwithstanding this unusual demand, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been able to keep the motorist of the Middle West constantly supplied with gasoline. 1 his is the direct result of strict economy in production and the uninterrupted operation of a modem system of distribution. The new high gasoline consumption record of August tells of hundreds of small business organizations made efficient by means of the automobile and an abundance of standard quality gasoline. It tells of thousands of families who have enjoyed healthful outings at minimum cost. It tells of hundreds of thousands of city children benefited by country air, because motor transportation carried them into open spaces at a trilling charge* Giving people what they want, at a price they easily can afford to pay, is in itself a valuable service. This service is rendered to society by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). Few of the hundreds of thousands of people who profit daily by the abundance and the wide distribution of gasoline, consider the intricate industrial problems solved before this service could be rendered. They are apt to think of gasoline as yielded freely by nature; a generous, unceasing gift to man. On the contrary, no matter how freely crude oil is produced by nature, without the aid of science it does not yield the tremendous quantities of gasoline needed to supply the demand. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) by originating processes which vastly increase the percentage of gasoline recovered from crude oil, serves mankind by helping to keep the supply equal to the demand. By devising a comprehensive distribution system and maintaining it in the face of every obstacle, this Company is able to make gasoline available to millions who could not afford to have the fuel shipped to them individually. Gasoline is as accessible to the farmers of the Middle West as it is to the city dweller* Standard Oil Company ( Indiana ) General Office: Standard Oil Building 910 So. Michigan Avenue, Chicago
