Watering The Battery Bummer Service Calls For This Attention Very Frequently LIKE ALMOST EVERYTHING ELSE, including humans, storage batteries are thirstier and require water moye frequently and more of it in hot weather than in cold. During the winter, with its short runs and low. temperatures, only occasional refillings are generally re- quired, especially as overcharging rarely takes plice, but in the sum- mer, with its long continuous runs, high temperatures and the likeli- hood of protracted overcharging, several times as much water will be needed. Unless the plates of each cell are completely covered with Hiquid at all times, they and their separators not 'only deteriorate rapidly, but the ability of the battery to do work is greatly decreased and if the liquid level gets down to the tops of the plates, it drops very fast and large plate areas soon become: exposed to the air, for the reason that the spaces for liquid among the plates themselves are very small. The liquid present in the Space above the tops of the plates, represents a large fraction of all liguid available and is a sort of reserve supply. Roughly speaking there should always be at least one-quarter inch of liquid above the plates and there is usually no objection to filling almost up to the bottoms of the openings int» which' the caps screw, but liquid should never be carried higher thas this or liquid will be forced out when the cell gases. The usual rec: ommendation is that the level in each cell should 'be inspected and re~ plenished, if necessary, once a week in summer, but this is not often enough if the battery is on a car that is in continuous touring service. (f the weather is hot and the car is kept going nearly all day, with- out the generator being put out of action or the lights kept burning, especially if the charging rate is fairly high, the liquid level in each cell should be inspected daily and brought up to normal if it has be- come appreciably lowered. A week of continuous touring, under the above mentioned conditions will sometimes cause so'much water to be boiled away as to expose a large part of the plate area and con- centrate the acid to a point at which it works destructively on the plates and separators, at the high temperatures that will be attained. It goes without saying that distilled water only is to be used for filling purposes although filtered rain water, caught in the open in glass or crockery receptacles can be used, if distilled water is not available. SECOND SPEED IS NOISY CHANGING CYLINDER HEADS 2 oes my car make such a grating noise, when thrown into second speed? It runs quietly on high gear. Answer: Is the transmission case supplied with a good quality of lubricant, not too thick to pre- vent its flowing fairly freely, but of sufficient body to form a cushion between the gear teeth and In quantity 'sufficient so that the low- est gears in the case dip into it rather deeply? Unless this is the tase, there will ® unnecessary noise. If the lubrifation of this transmission has ever been neg- lected, it is probable that the gear-shaft bearings have worn so that the gears are not rigidly held in correct mesh and this always results in noise. Wear of the bear- ing which supports the forward end of the sliding gear shaft in the clutch shaft, is almost certain to make a transmission run very noisily in second speed. If correct C. A. M. asks: Can I use a 1918 model cylinder head on the engine of my 1922 car? I un- derstand that this 1918 head does not have so large a clearance space jas the one on my engine and that its' use 'will increase the engine's power. Is there any danger that it will make the engine heat up worse? Answer: This earlier model of cylinder head can be used on your engine, but we doubt if you will find its use advantageous, unless you use high test gasoline or gaso- line treated with some anti-knock material. you put on one of these high com- pression heads, you will be troubled with detonation of the fuel and a loss in power rather than a gain, if you used ordinary gasoline, The increased clearance space | the 11922 cylinder-head was a tendency to knocking, which had been pronounced with the high- It is to be feared that if vided in order to eliminate the | $7.30; medium weight, $6.95 to $7.- 30; light weight, $6.45 to $7.15; light light, $5.60 to $6.85; cattle, er- treme top matured steers, $10.85; practical top, $10.60; best long year- lings, $10.15; beef steers and year- lings, $8 to $9.85; stockers and feed- ers, $5.50 to $7.50; beef cows, $4.25 to $6.25; beef heifers, $6.40 to $7.- 50; canners and cutters, $2.35 to $3.25; veal calves, $8.25 to $9.50; fat lambs, $13 to $14.75; cull na- tives, $8 to $8.50; yearlings, $10 to $11.50; wethers, $8; light and handyweight ewes, $5.25 to $5.75; heavies, $2.50 to $3.50; feeding lambs, $11 to $12.
