Trees Along the Highways The conservation commission of Indiana suggests the planting of trees along the highways of the state. Two purposes would be served. The

beauty of the roads would be enhanced, shade af

forded for teams and tourists, and long stretches

of barren roads would be 'paralleled by rows of

beautiful trees; and from the ultilitarian stand

point, the rapidly diminishing supply of timber 'would be replaced for the coming generations. The suggestion of Richard Lieber, director of the commission, ought not to , be dismissed fwithout serious consideration. It has many fea

tures to recommend it to the thoughtful consideration of the people of this state. It will require a heavy outlay of money to accomplish the ambitious plan of the director. Citizens cannot be expected to pay higher taxes to provide funds to line the roads with trees. But progress toward the attainment of the ideal can be made if farmers will transplant young trees, especially walnut or yellow poplar, along the road sides. The advantages of planting trees are enumerated thus by the commission: Aside from their natural beauty, highway trees have many advantages. In heated seasons they serve to reduce the temperature, frequently enhanced by reflection of the sun's rays upon hard surface roads, thus rendering a service to traveling man and beast. In winter these same trees serve as a wind break. During long periods of drought, they materially cause the macadam or gravel road to retain moisture it otherwise

would not retain and thus much of the surface of the roadTpulverized into fine dust by repeated

churning of wheels, is prevented from blowing

away with every passing zephyr.

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK

I think It was Wells who once wrote in one of bis books: "Nature slays 1" The thought that he wanted to brine; out, I believe, was this that Nature knows that all of her forces are not able to be used one hundred percent efficiently in every instance but that they must ofttimes be changed and born anew. No good effort is ever put forth In vain. Much of what we look upon as lost is merely set aside for our benefit or the benefit of others later on. I recently talked with a woman who has been a teacher for nearly twenty years. She was discouraged and regretted that her life had amounted to so little. I congratulated her on her life's amounting to so much! If there Is one life that Is not lived In vain. It is that of the teacher. We lose a fight that we had hoped to win gloriously. And we are Inclined to lose heart but just remember that honest work and planning and thinking is never in vain. One of the great reasons why Nature Is so lavish In its ability to repair damage is that it recognizes that mistakes are the common lot of all. Tonight you may become inspired by the gleam of some star, lost and extinguished millions of year ago, but which still wanders in the eky along its endless road. Nothing Is ever wholly lost!

Dinner Stories

The 'Automobile Simplified By FREDERICK C. GUERRLICH, M. E. Make This Your Automobile Correspondence School AN Intimate talk on the working milts of the automobile discussed m such a way that the layman can easily understand them. If in reading these articles, as they appear in the Palladium each Saturday, there is anything not clear to you, ask Mr. Guerlieh about it. An answer will be published on the completion of the articles on the section of the automobile under discussion. CoprrlfbUMl. 1S1T. Br rredertek C. OaarrllelL

LESON NO. 47. The Ford Transmission. As there are in the neighborhood of 2,000,000 Ford cars in service, and as circumstances may arise, because of which many of our readers may at come time own a Ford, in addition to their present car, or alone, it is well worth while to study the special transmission used on it. The transmission of the Ford car is

movable gear B are where we want the pressure as at B of the safe. Then to evert a pressure of 500 pounds at B only 100 will be needed at C. The gears C might be regarded as a flat crowbar. It is but a step to change the portion of gears shown in Fig. 2 to full gears, as shown in Fig. 3, (and in Fig. 4, which is a side view). The point C we can convert into a pin and we can

. M 1

By observing Fig. 4, you will notice

mat wnen the drum K Is held station

ary by the band L, and the flywheel, and, therefore, engine is revolving,

that the gears F and O will roll about

D, and bo drive the gear E, which is

connected to the rear wheels through

the propeller shaft, etc. The gears

F and O might be regarded as a re

volving crowbar.

When, however, the band L is freed, then the drum K will be freed, and as

there will now be more resistance to

the revolving of the gear E than to the gear D, the gears F and G will now

roll on E and so simply drive the gear D and Its drum backward. Thus there will be no tendency to drive the car

by the runlng engine.

You will note that no gears are shifted, the connecting of the engine to the rear wheels being accomplished by the tightening of the band on the

crum, as to hold it from revolving; while the disconnecting is accomplished by the freeing of this band.

If the gears D and O were ten inches in diameter, and. the gear E six inches, while F was four inches, then the leverage of the pin C would be 5 to 1,

but this will not be the engine lever

age. The diameter or the circle through which the crank revolves will be less than the diameter of the circle of the pin C and so there will be a resulting reverse leverage. Were the crank Qircle six inches, only six-tenths (6-10) of the pressure of the crank would be exerted on the pin C. Thus the resulting leverage would be but (6-10) six-tenths of five, or 3 to 1. I have assumed the crank circle as the same diameter a3 the gear E, to simplify matters. This will be found to be a fair assumption if the leverage is figured out in detail to the rear wheels. The cauculations will resolve themselves to this. Now as to the speed ratio. By referring to Fig. , you will observe that if the gears D and G are of the same diameter, or have the same number of teeth (which they must have if they are of the same diameter), then when the pin C has made a complete revolution, the gear G will have made a complete revolution about the pin, and the tooth A will again be in the position shown. Now the gear F has but forty teeth, while E will have sixty, and so when it makes a complete revolution it will have rolled around but two-thirds of E. In other words, the tooth B, will be in mesh with the tooth II of gear E. Now a3 the gears F. and G are one piece, when gear G has made one revolution, gear F will also have made one revolution, and the tooth B will have to be in the position shown. In order, therefore, for the tooth B to be meshed with the tooth H the gear E will have have to travel so that H comes to B, which will be one third of a revolution. Thus for every revolution of the fly wheel the gear E will make a third of a revolution, or expressing this differently, the engine will make three revolutions to one of the gear. As the gears F and E are brought more nearly to the same diameter, the greater will be the engine speed. Thus

if they had forty-five and fifty-five teeth, gear E would move for only ten of its fifty-five teeth and the engine speew would be 5.5 to 1. When the gears, that is, all four, are of the same size, there will be no car speed, while if F is made larger than E, thus crossing the neutral point, the car will reverse. How this principle is used far reversing will be shown next.

"So you really think vour memory

Is improving under treatment. You

remember things now, then?" "Well, not exactly, but I have progressed so far that I can freauentlv re

member that I have forgotten something, if I could only remember what

it is. The village photographer was losing patience with his woman patron. "Just a little smile, please," he said, dwelling Bomewhat on the last word. "A smile adds so much to the artistic effect," The woman shook her head.

"Of course, if you'd rather," com-S

menced the artist. , "I would not," came from the direction of the headrest. "Our one layin'

en died this morning, bacon's gone up tuppence a pound, mother's had a couple o fits, my boy George has just broken a plate-glass window, and my husband is In a military hospital with four or five pounds o' lead Inside him. If you think I'm goin' to grin like a Cheshire cat -when I'm up against that shower of blessings you're scratchln' the wrong pig. You git on with it, natural, mister." "Do you think eggs will be worth ten cents a piece this winter?" "I haven't taken up that side of the question," replied Farmer Corntossel. "I've been studyin a ten-cent piece an' wonderin" whether it's worth an egg."

Charles M. Schwab is boosting Wood, and wonders if Charlie is tired of iron and steel. A Yonkers stbre, according to M. H. Y,. Is advertising "Stockings 36 inches wide." This would be the kind to hang up for Christmas.

Good Evening BY ROY K. MOULTON

Discard Spoiled Canned Food; May Have Botalinus Botulinus poison is never present in foodstuffs that are sound when packed and proper application is made of the cold pack method, according to a bulletin received ty L. L. Miller, state food and drug commissioner, from the bureau of chemistry, department of agriculture. The bulletin confirms his original statement, Mr. Miller says, that there

was no justification for wholesale condemnation of the cold pack method of

preserving fruits and vegetables, because the ripe olives, which are said to have been the source of botulinus poisoning in Michigan and Ohio cities, had been packed In this manner. . Mr. Miller says that the evidence Jn the hands of the government's agents shows that all spoiled food does not contain botulinus poisoning, but any spoiled food, even though showing very slight evidence of spoilage, may contain it, and therefore any canned food showing unnatural color, having unnatural odor, swollen or showing evidence of a gas content, should be discarded, and especially where there is the slightest trace of decomposition.

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Yeart Ago Today

Announcement was made of the Institution of a local order of the United Commercial Travelers' Association. Colonel C. E. Wiley was named chairman and John E. Pelts secretary of the county Republican committee

lor the 1910 elections. William McCoy, 87 years old, former resident and well known in Richmond, rled at his home south of here. During the month of fanuary 63 arrests were made by the police, which was said to be a record for one month.

STIFF NECK, LUMBAGO Aches and Pains of Rhcumctltnv, Sometimes Almost Unbearable. There are weather conditions that make rheumatism worse. They are not the same in the cases of all per' sons. Some victims of this disease suffer more in dry warm weather than In moist, cold weather, but all suffer more or less all the time. The cause of rheumatism is an excess of uric acid in the blood, affecting the muscles and joints. Hence the blood must have attention for permanent results in the treatment of this disease. Hood's Sarsaparilla has given entire satisfaction in thousands of cases. Do not fail to give it a trial. If a laxative is needed, take Hood's Pills they don't gripe. Adv.

SHOULD A WIFE BE A HOMEMAKER OR A HAYMAKER? Dear Roy: My mother wanted me to marry a rich young college girl when I

was 24, but I turned her down for a pretty stenographer, who worked with a big insurance firm downtown, and we had a happy married life. At the declaration of war I volunteered, and was assigned to the flour section of the quartermaster's department. My wife had higher ambitions for me, and it pained her not to have me made a general right away. So she became head of a nursing section for sick horses in our community, and spent all her time at the stableR during the war period. I didn't mind that then. But after I was mustered out of my permanent station In Arkansas, and returned to my home in Jersey, I found that my living room and my library had been turned into a veritable barnyard for sick colts and things. My wife and I had never disagreed to speak of. But this was too much. And I tried to insist upon her giving up her activities. And then I remembered a boyhood friend, a veterinary surgeon, and I fought him out for advice nnd counsel. On my way home from his house I carried a small vial in my pocket. It contained a deadly poison deadly only to horses, however. At night I managed to administer this to the animals in my first parlor. They died ignominiously, despite my wife's nursing. This performance I repeated a number of times. Till my wife, realizing that her nursing abilities were failing, resigned from her position and came back to me her lawful husband. ICHABOD HANKS. OLD IRVING DAVIS SAYS: Those who are well-to-do, are generally hard-to-do! Many employes who have a good employer, and really can't do too much for him, are foolish enough not to ! Don't become a contractor, if your specialty is Debts! Fashion put a taboo upon large hats, because they emphasized the emallness of one's cranium! Don't spend money recklessly, especially if it's your own! Evidently Samuel Taylor Coleridge had January 16 in mind when he wrote the famous passage in "The Ancient Mariner"; "Water, water everywhere, End not a DROP to drink!" We trust it was the latest mode of hat that Lucy Page Gaston threw into the presidential ring, because, if it wasn't, the feminine vote will be sure to talk about it.

'.known as a Planetary Transmission, fbecause the various sets of gears are always maintained in the same plane, they never being shifted, as are those Used on most other cars. On the Ford the clutch and transmission are built together, and it ,miglit also be said that the foot or (Pervice brake is built into the transmission, the brake, clutch and transmission gears being In one unit. The purpose of the planetary transmission is exactly the same as that of other transmissions, namely, to give the englno a leverage and different Bpeed ratios, and to give a means for driving the car backward. Let us see how the Planetary Transmission accomplishes its purpose. Suppose we wanted to move a safe which would require a pressure of 600 pounds at the point B, Fig. 1. If there were an obstruction, or fulcrum, on the ground as A, we could take a crowbar and, by using it as shown, move the safe with but a 100-pound i pressure on its end, C. Thus we have i a lever of 5 to 1. Now study Fig. 2. Let us take the teeth of the stationary gear A as the (obstruction or fulcrum as above, and Jet us assume that he teeth of the

As we will want to release the gears, the same as the sliding gears are brought into neutral, there will have to be some means furnished to accomplish this.
