Queries and Replies Covering Matters of
Importance to the Man Who Runs a Car
Is your land infested with prairie dogs? Is your range damnged nnd your crops endangered
with this pest? For thirty-five years I have been killing these pests with n method of my own that
does the work quickly and surely. My outfit will operate In western Nebraska during the coming
season.

The principal reason for discarding

ia It easier to pump up a tire with tha
wheal jaokad up whan tha waight of tha
ear Is ratting on the whaelf
Theoretically It Is slightly easier to
2Xuuip up a tire when the weight la re
ssuoved. but the .difference Is so small
ithat It la doubtful whether any or
dluary gauge would measure It. The
-xtra work iHMjalred represents the
amount of work, to lift the weight on
'that wheel through the distance that
'the inflated tire" lifts the rim off the
ground, this distance being approxj
tanately three Inches.' But this Is divtd
d up among bo many pump stroke
Chat the extra work is not felt, and It
Vs probably Just as economical of ener
gy to do It this way aa to Jack the
wheel up.
"What ara tha apaolflo advantages of
ix eylindar ovar four cylinder motor f
The advantage of greatest Importance
Is that the six has a more eveu torque,
or turning effort, than the four, because
there are three explosions to each rev
olution against two per revolution In
the four. The averape six will throt
tle lower than a four of the same size.
Kindly inform m how to determine

ment. With the wheels pointing a

tance In-tweeu the two wheels, at the

quartcr Inch nearer ut the front, but

rod.
Plea tall ma how to place old ahoe
var new, and i it a practical thing
to dof
To use the old tires do not cut the
bead off. You have to take the c:iing
off the wheel and force tt Into the old
easing and then apply both to the
rheel at once. Many claim this gives
practically puncture proof tire and
one that lasts longer than the single
hoe. It Is desirable to have good in
Iter tubes on account of Its being too
much trouble In changing in case au
old tube gives way. So far as heat
and sand are concerned, many claim
they do not seem to auiouut to any
thing, though others declare they ren
der the idea Impractical. The old cas

ud It protect the good tire from road
tieat. Some drivers, however, cut allts
lu old caslugs arouud the whole tread
from bead to bead. They say It makes
them easier to apply as well aa to al
low ventilation. These slits are cut
bout every four Inches and about one
half Inch of the material taken out
Authorities disagree ou the practica
bility of the scheme of using old shoes

Plea toll ma how to prevent water
leaking out of the grea cupa at either
aide of the water pump?
You ure using too light a grease In
these grease cups, with the result that
when the motor gets warm the grease
becomes very lluid and allows the wa
ter to leak. In hot weather you should
use u heavy grease. Probably the hard
est that you can buy will be the most
satisfactory. However, as soon as cold
weather sets in substitute a lighter
grease.
On my car a universal Joint la used
betweon angina and transmission, this
universal consisting of a cross floating
in tha yokes of clutch and shaft. The
assembly, unleaa kept carefully adjust
ed, la noiay and doea not retain oil for
any length of time. Could I aubatituta
a leather universal?
The Joint between the engine and
gear box Is designed to take up uny
misalignment between the clutch and
the gear shift, but It often happens
that the gear box drops, throwing the
shaft out of alignment to such an ex
tent that the drive becomes noisy, and
this Is probably the cause of your trou
ble.
It Is doubtful If the fitting of a leath
er universal would be wise, because, al
though It would alienee the drive. It
would take care of the misalignment.
the noise which shows that there Is a
faulty alignment would be gone, and
there would be no warning to enable
you to know when to correct this. It
occasionally uapx ns that u sudden Jolt
will cause a drop In the level of the
gi-ar box due to n looseness In the bolts
which hold It In position. This can be
remedied by restorlug the gear box to
Its proper alignment
ll Is nlso very probable that the rear
axle gears are badly out of adjust
ment and that the vibration produced
ns a result of this Is transmitted to the
Joint between the engine and gear box
and given off nt that KlnL You should
not only have the engine and gear aet
aligned, but also have the rear axle
lusiH'ctcd and the gears readjusted.
should It be necessary.
I change the oil in my crank case
about every 500 or 600 milea. Would
tha oil I take out bo all right to use in
the transmission or would it wear the
gears?
It Is a good Idea to use the oil from
the crank case In the gear box. After
use for considerable time In the motor
the oil takes on a gummy consistency.
which renders It unfit for good motor
lubrication, but good for use In lubri
cating the gears In the gear box on ac
count of its tendency to adhere to the
gear teeth. It Is better to strain It for
use In the gear box.
My motor heata too much and the
thermo-siphon ayatem doea not do ita
work properly or the heating is caused
by another aourca. I believe my car
buretor ia adjusted properly, there ia
no clipping fan belt or loas of com
pression, but atill the angina ovorheata.
Aa the car haa not been run over 3.000
milea tha carbon cannot bo the cauaa.
Can you explain thie?
It Is most likely that your trouble Is
due to driving with the spark retard
ed too far, although It Is Impossible to
say with certainty that this Is so. Try
driving your car with the spark ad
vanced as far as possible at all timet
without the motor knocking.
There are many other things that
might cause your motor to overheat,
however carlsmlzed cylinders, poor
water circulation. Incorrect timing of
motor, dragging brakes or Kssibly ex
cessive friction. Just as you state, it
Is not likely that the trouble Is caused
by earbou. but In looking for the cause
It Is not wise to neglect this possibili
ty, for the reason that motor troubles
are often caused by the most unex
pected circumstances. Note whether
the water Is circulating freely, and if
not try to find where the trouble Is.
whether It Is due to dirt, loose pieces
of rubber obstructing the passages or
what not. Uemeniber that with a
thermo-siphon system the water will
uot circulate at all us soon as the level
drops below the discharge header tu
the top of the radiator. Circulation of
water lu the thermo-siphon system Is
dependent ou the fact that the column
J of water, considered as such for sim
Jllclty. in the plje8 and water Jackets
is lighter than the column lu the radi
ator lecause it Is warmer, and water
expands aud grows lighter as It Is
warmed. Therefore If the level of wa
ter drops below the outlet pie clrcu
lation must stop. It Is well to note
whether you have not lieen running
with the water below this point Or
It Is kiss I hie that you have a slow
leak and that in the course of an aft-
I eruoon enough water leaks out to low
er the level enough to stop the clrcu-
lullou. as descrtlHHl.
if there Is dirt lu the radiator flush
It out thoroughly, and if there Is auy
grease In the water wash It with
hot solution of sodium carbonate In
water, one handful of carbonate to a
pall of water. See that the rubber boae
connections are lu good condition.
a last resort check up the valve
timing by tbe marks ou the flywheel.
end If there are no marks you bad bet
ter write to the maker for Information
