(Br ERWIN GREER, PrMldcnt Omr Col-la- c of Automotive Engineering. Chicago.) One of the modern and least under-stood parts ofthe car Is the vacuum system. The average owner knows nothing about Its Interior or how It works. The pipe running down the left of the tank goes direct to the Intake manifold (when the vacuum tank Is attached to the dash), the pipe to the right directly to the main tank. This draws the gasoline from the main tank, usually situated at the rear of the car, to the vacuum tank. The pipe at the bottom of the tank feeds the easollne to the carburetor. Repair Often Needed. Internal repairs to the various parts ef the vacuum tank are now often necessary. When the tank Is suspect-ed of causing any trouble, the fuel must be drawn from It. If more than one-sixt- h of a quart comes out, the tank is performing Its functions prop-erly. If the engine Is run at low speed with the throttle open for a long time, the vacuum may be reduced so fust that the tank will empty Itself. This condition may be produced by foreign matter choking the feed tube, from the main to the vacuum tank. Run-ning the engine with closed throttle for a few minutes will give suction enough to fill the tank. In case the float valve sticks, caus-ing an overflow of gasoline from the tank, the Inner shell can be removed by taking out eight screws In the top. The tank may be filled with fuel and used as an ordinary gravity system, so that the driver can got to the near est garage. If the vacuum tank ever becomes empty, It may be filled by closing tha throttle and turning the engine over a few times. If the tank has been emp--' ty for some time and refuses to fill easily, there Is probably some dirt or grit under-- the flapper valve. ' In this case squirt a little gasoline Into the tank through the plug In its top, which Is easily removed. Flush Tank Often. To save yourself possible trouble with the vacuum tank through neglect It is a good, pi an to remove the plug at the top and flush it out about once every three months, at the same time drawing off any sediment or watpr that may have collected at the bottom of the tank by opening the petcock at the bottom. Even then the vacuum tank will sometimes fall to work properly, and If the tank should happen to refuse , to function there Is still a way to get home, even though you cannot find the trouble. Remove the entire top of the vacuum tank, buy a can of gasoline and use It to fill' the vacuum tank. Then run the car on this supply. When It Is exhausted refill It again, and so on. $ Accidents Cost U. S. I $2,250,000,000 a Year f T Accidents cost Americana t J 250,000,000 a year.

A ROABL BEST WAY TO PLANT TREES ON ROADSIDE i (Br JENS JENSEM, Lincoln Highway Architect.) Roadside planting should be a part of the general character of the land-scape, so that the roads themselves do not appear as a definite line apart from the rest of the landscape, but a means to an end that Is in sympathy with Its surroundings. The highways are the points from which the traveler sees and enjoys the surrounding country. It Is. therefore, of Importance that the roadside plant-ing does not shut out adjacent lands. Out on the plains, the open country and the freedom of It Is a real charm and Inspiration. Even roadsides lined with rows of trees In the avenue fashion would be a mistake. This not only would change the broad expanse of prairie country but would tend to checkerboard the prairie landscape. The same Idea may hold good In mountainous countries where the valley is the object of beauty. Scattered trees planted promiscu-ously along the highway, as one sees them In the forest, are more In keep- - Ing with our landscape and with the" American mind than stately avenues of monarchies. It Is rather lanes that we want, or pikes, as they are called In the South, where trees seem to enjoy the roadside and each other's com-pany. There Is nothing stiff or set about It. A lane or a pike Is tolerant even to the shy but sweet violet that may be permitted to scatter Its per-fume along the highway. I have seen pikes in Kentucky that come as near to what I consider a beautiful American highway as any-thing I know of. They are serviceable, beautiful and cool on hot summer days. Native plants of all sorts find a happy home along these roadsides and give their beauty and their wonderful mes-sage to the passerby, and In them nest our birds that thrill us with their ongs. We want this expression of freedom along the open road. We want shad-ows and we want sunlight. We want the comfort of shady lanes, and we want the beautiful outlooks over the surrounding country. I have passed over prairie roads with nothing but wavy plains in green and brown before me, and way off In the horizon the purple riches on the crest of s prairie wave. Those are In-spiring things, and they stimulate a love for our native land. All roadside planting should be de-termined and based on the country and the native vegetation through which the road winds its way. In this way the roadside planting will become a part of the general landscape, and en-hance the beauty of Its surroundings as far as this Is possible for a highway to do. For Instance, swamp or lowland landscapes are of a widely different character than prairie or hilly country, and the vegetation fitting for these different types of landscapes are equally different. Every plnnt has Its proper place In the To find this place Is worth while, because here It reveals Its greatest beauty and gives us Joy In the fullpst measure. Trees adapted to their environs may grow to great age and nobility, and In this way high-way planting will become a most Im-portant tusk In the making of our rural landscapes. Roadside planting, the development of state reservations and rural parks are equal In Importance to city plnn-nln-and are far greater In scope and vision than the latter. A period of great cultural advancement Is always measured by the vision and the out-look for the future. Roadside planting belongs to such a period.

I Grouters Assist Trucks in Soft or Muddy Field Frequently a motur truck may be used In an emergency to do some sort of field work. One Oregon rancher, who had occasion to do some hauling from a soft field, equipped his rear wheels with removable "grouters" similar to those used on tractors, but Grouters Attached. made especially for the truck wheels. They consisted of pieces of anglelron, cut the correct length, and bolted to-gether, so that when applied there was no slippage of the wheels inside the grouters.

Greasing of Rear Axle Can Be Done Very Quick Here Is a method of putting lubri-cant Into the rear axle In double quick time: Put a common funnel In the tiller hole of the axle. Remove the cap and nozzle from the end of the grease gun, opening the whole front end of the gun. Put the end of the grease gun in the wide end of the funnel nnd hold It firmly while screwing up the handle In the ordinary way. The grease will shoot Into the axle In Jig time, and a rinsing with kerosene and wiping with a bit of waste will remove all traces of the operation from the funnel. Every Link in Chain of Anchor Must Be Perfect The terrible effects which might re-sult from carelessness In a black-smith- 's work are well lllustruted by the great Importance of every link In the chain of a ship's anchor. The anchor chulns of the Lusltanla were 800 fathoms, long nearly 2.000 feet with a weight of 125 tons. Every link has to be carefully welded at the proper temperature. Such work re-quires Infinite cure, for in no case Is the saying truer than the chain Is only as strong ns the weakest link. On every single link In such a chain the safety of a giant vessel and the lives uf perhaps 2,000 persons may depend. The earliest blacksmiths' forges known were holes In the sides of hills, culled boomerles. The Romans In-vented the first bellows about the year 3T0, using a Madder of goat skin. Nowadays enormous Ingots of steel are heated In furnaces, nnd the forging press Is taking the pluce of the blacksmith's hammer and anvil. The hammer wielded by the strong arm of the village smithy instead, a hammer equal In weight to one of thousands of tons. Repairs Responsible for Additions to Scrap Heap Amateur tire patching ruins thou-sands of automobile tires each year. It Is a common practice among auto-mobile owners when receiving a cut or puncture In a tire to Insert a patch on the Inside of the casing at the point of Injury, thinking that the dam-age Is permanently repaired. Such a repair will In time ruin any tire, says one expel t It Is good practice to apply patches cases, but a tire sleeve should be placed on the outsld" of the lire opposite tile patched portion at the same time. The sleeve serves to bind the tire, hold the torn and Injjred parts of the fabric In place and pre-vent further chafing and rupture. The tire sleeve and patch are mere-ly "first-aid- " appliances, and should be removed at tbe 'mrllest possible mo-ment. It will pay motorists to drive to the nearest repair man Immediately after the Injury occurs. If allowed to run wltnout repair, every time the wheel makes a revolution the tire quickens Us pace toward a scrap heap. "Bottle Books" About a century ago "bottle books" were made In the south of France. They were used to carry liquid re-freshments and were popular with Judges, lawyers and the learned folk generally. The legal profession was given to carrying Its authorities back and forth under the arm. Hence these bottle books, which were made of lus-trous, decorated dirk blue faience, were In appearance not unlike tooled levant leather. The contents were wholly liquid or partly literary, with a liquid compartment. When the own-er felt the need of a nip lie opened his little book. Detroit News. 4 !
