So well has this fact been Impress ed upon designer s and manufac turers that now such cleaners are standard equipme nt upon mo!;t tractors and motor vehicles . Recent continua tions of these tests as to the effect of the location of the air Intake of tractors show that when the carbure tor air inlet opening faced forward , three and one-hal1' times as much dust was taken in as when it faced toward the rear. This Is a very striking fact and one that tractor, truck and auto purchas ers should take Into consider ation In selecting an outfit. No doubt even bet• ter would be the plan of lifting the carbure tor air Intake above the worst of the dust by means of a vertical pipe extendin g several feet abo\'e tbe tractor. The opening of this should be turned back instead of forward , or possibly might be fitted with a revolvin g cap which would always face away from the wind.
