Recognizing Low Grade Gasoline How To Detect Unduly Involatile Fuel GASOLINE TAKEN ON at different filling stations in different sec- tions of the country, is of rather a wide range as to grade. By low grade gasoline is usually meant, a fuel carrying a large proportion of constituents, which vaporize only at relatively high temperatures and a small proportion of hydrogarbons which vaporize at low temperatures. Naturally, high grade gasoline is just the opposite of this. In order to prevent excessive oil dilution and high fuel consumption and to secure smooth engine operation and snappy acceleration, low grade fuel is to be avoided as far as possible. Differences in fuel quality are not so . noticeable in the case of modern engines, with the best hot-spot mani folds, but the engines of less modern cars, with little or no intake heat- ing, are very sensitive to them. The following are some of the signs that the gasoline being used 1s of a more than usually "keroseny" gual- 4 [ ity: The engine idles irregularly and stalls easily until it becomes f fully heated, and excessive use of the choker is required to keep it 4 running for a considerable time after starting.

Upon stopping it, after idling, an unusual amount of fuel may be seen to drip out through the carburetor air intake. Inspection of the crankcase oll may indicate that it has become thin much faster than it normally should. It'is very difficult and sometimes practically impossible to start a cold engine on some very low grade gasclines, but others have just emough highly volatile constituents to insure starting, but consist otherwise of hydrocarbons which vaporise only when highly heated. With the circulating water hot and any sort of intake heating arrangements, low grade gasoline usually gives fair results when a car is at speed, but under cool conditions and close throttling it gives less satisfactory results.

I have had the gear replaced, but this dtd no good. What can you suggest as & remedy ? Answer: Possibly the fork, which shifts the second speed gear, has become bent, so that, even with the full motion of tue lever, the lock- ing-plunger does not enter the siot in the slide and thus no locking o6- curs.

'The chicks should not be fed until the twenty-fourth day, counting from the time the eggs were set, Feed Sparingly At First. Until the chicks are able to run about in search of food, they should be fed sparingly. Overfeeding at this period, even after the yolk has beem completely removed, will cause serious digestive troubles. The external indication of overfeeding is usually shown by a more or less pronounced diarrhoea of varying r, but usually grayish white, If chicks have been chilled and diarrhoea, or "pasting up behind", appears it is safe to assume that they bave been overfed.

Next, give them a feed of fine chick grit, dropping a few grains at a time on a smooth board, slowly at first but much more rapidly after a few minutes, until the chicks pick up what they require.
