The two gas engine schools that are to be held in this county soon are not going to be any cure-all hos pitals wherein some one can wave a magic wand over any old wreck of an engine and make it take on new fife. Tlje farmers who attend the school will spend a few minutes each day looking at some charts that em phasize the simple principles of gas engine construction and operation. The rest of the time will be spent on the engines that farmers bring in: Mr. Oberlin who is coming from Lincoln to take charge of the school, does not want the farmers to ' fool away their time on engines that have been worn out and thrown away years ago. Nor does he want any farmer to bring in. an engine, drop.. it on the' floor, and sayV "there she is, i let's see you make her run." eH does expect the farmers to bring in en gines: that have, not been workintr properly but 'whiChX are still iWorth-i repairing and adjusting. He also wants. the farmers, to have on hand all the repairs he thinks will be need ed to put the engine into first class condition." It . will be - necessaryfpr the farmer' 1 to get-the nedessary" re pairs himself anyway if he expects to take home a good engine at the close of the school, so he will-savej time if he can get the repairs ahead of time.
