'Phone 1042 {| J How Smith Cut His Oil Bill Saving At The Spigot And Wasting At The Bung SMITH WAS A THRIFTY CHAP and a close figurer on all business and even pleasure expenditures but, one day, while cleaning up his garage, his mind began to dwell on the pile of empty five gallon Socoline cans, piled up in one corner, and he commenced to wonder If the high repute of this oll was justified, whether he was not paying for the big advertising campaign this company was putting on snd for a lot of tin with loud lithographing on it and whether he wasn't a fool to buy in such small quantities. He made a resolve to apply his keen business intellect to saving money on his motor oil, in future. At the club next day, while talking "oil" to a friend, the conversation was overheard by a genial gentleman, who introduced himself as an oil salseman. "There's no use paying 80 cents for engine oil, when I can give you practically the same thing in barrel lots at 85 cents a gallon. Ours'is refined from the same crude as the oil you've been using, but we don't boost our price by a lot of publicity and fancy packages," the salesman began.' "Look at this," and he held to the. light a bottle holding a liquid as clear and golden as "first run" Vermont maple syrup. "Let me send you over a barrel and I'll make you a discount of 5% for eash with the order." Smith gave his address and handed over his check for the required amount. The barrel arrived duly, but Smith could find no brand or manufacturer's name on it. Still it Igoked all right and he filled up his engine with it. For the first few days driving around town his engine ran all right, and it even performed satisfactorily dur ing the first part of the long business trip, which he soon had to mak®, but after a time it got hotter than it usually did and failed to take the hills with its customary ease and silence. Soon it began to knock per ceptibly and at last vehemently. Nevertheless, the car pulled through and the next morning its owner, with his suspicions of the new oil AR -- As MADE IN CANADA BATTERIES RADIO We have a new line of Radio A and B Batteries at very attractive prices.

A lot of dirty, muddy sediment dripped out first, followed by a liquid about as thin as water, with some sudsy stuff following it. Smith replaced the mess with some Socoline he had left over and then went after his friend the salesman, but he could not find the business card he had given him and the directory did not contain the name. Worse than all else, Smith's engine did not run with its old-time pep and smoothness until he had it overhauled at an expense of §54.62. That barrel of oil is still back of Smith's garage.

L. G. asks: What is, meant by *'supercharging," which I have seen mentioned in connection with @ recent auto race. Answer: It means forcing into the cylinders of an engine larger charges of gasoline vapor and air than the cylinders can draw In un. der the existing atmospheric cond!- tions. Increasing the weight of the charges increases the power de- veloped, just as opening the throt- tle does. It is the gaseous pressure at the carburetor air-intake, which forces the charges Into Jengine cylinders and the higher this is, the larger the enterfng charges are. The operation of wsupercharging consists in artificially creating at the intake, a pressure above that of the atmosphere--a compressing pump, blower or some equivalent means being employed. On airplanes engines, superchargers have been used for sometime to compensate for the loss of air pressure experi V. A. M. writes: , My engine has been spitting and missing for the past few months and will not pull the car, in high, on grades. I have to run with the choker pulled out or it misses and will not pull and it gets "re hot" after running awhile in high. Is the trcuble in the ignition timer, the carburetor or where? Answer: If we knew the make of this car, we could answer you more helpfully. It may be that there is dirt in the spraying nozsle of your carburetor, thus reducing the gasoline feed and making it ir- regular; or the carburetor may be adjusted for an altogether too lean mixture. This would account for your inability to make the engine run without pulling out the choker. If your spark is set too late, the engine would spit. give very little power and become very hot.
