PEASE FURNACES WESTON Phone 334 ‘.O. Box 259 CARE OF THE CAR WIEFN KING \VINTER REIGNS SCPREDIE To facilitate cold weather starting, priming frequently has to he resorted to. There are several good priming devices on the .market that can be operated. from the dash. On cars lacking priming cups the priming Champion spark plugs will be found a real friend in need. v A With the coming of shorter and cold days a, frequent complaint gar- age men and battery and electric SYS- tem experts of service stations have to contend with is regarding the bat- tery, though nine times out of ten the man-with the "kick" does not know that it is the battery. He will talk about the lights tailing every once in' a While, or the horn refusing to hank on demand, or the starting motor be- lieing its name. But in the majority ot cases it is the battery which is at fault. It is more difficult to keep the bat- tery charged at this time of the year than it is in summer. The reasons are: First; that the sun sets earlier, and just as our electric light and gas bills mount it comes because we light the lamps earlier, so it is with the automobile. Second, starting is hard owing to the cold. This puts a severe drain on the battery. Then, too, short runs are the order (little charg- ing results). .Thus the battery is starved and bled. "Watch it. Don't "let it get down. Have frequent hydro- meter reading taken, and if it shows a tendency to stay down around l,- 200, have it taken out and charged in a service station. A- battery will be loaned you at nominal rental while your battery is being charged. If you fail to keep your battery "up," yours will be the pleasure of having it "lie down" on you One of these fine days, 'sulphated or frozen, or both. Yours then to buy a new battery or to pay for an expensive overhaul, to say nothing of incidental inconvenience. It is Well to bear in mind that batter- ies are much less efficient in cold than in warm weather. F W. Have your garage heated by all means if you can/possibly arrange it. Many different types of satisfactory garage heaters are available, some at a very modest price, Car heaters for the comfort of drivers and passengers are not expensive, and are a real comfort. Anyone who has used them marvels that they are not in universal use. . Because Ws cold don't neglect ad- justments and lubrication-keep the tires up to pressure. During the cold weather it will pay motorists to have the old cylinder oil drained off and replaced with new oil every 500 miles. Going we? your tires and attending- to them 56W may iriii'ei mam a polar tht change on the road when the mercury drops to sub-zero points. The (river who tails to equip his car with some form of anti-skid chains for the winter months is ne- glecting a sane precaution. It is not necessary or Wise to clamp the chain tightly to the tire. The real object is to hold the chain firmly enough so that it will not strike the mud guard, and yet lightly enough that it can creep on the tire and irrstribute the wear over the entire “tread. Select those which "give" readily and can be easily stretched with the hands. Never use chains on a dry pavement. A top folded when damp deterior- ates rapidly and is soon cracked and discolored. Never clean the top'with gasoline, for gasoline will ruin any rubber which is present in the fabric or construction. 'When the top needs a good bath let it have it with castile soap and fa. Scrubbing brush. This ap- plies to the celluloid Windows also. If tires are to live their guaranteed life, there are many little points con- cerning their care with which the owner must become familiar. Damp- mess, particularly when permitted to attack the tire fabric through the small cuts in the tread, causes decay and consequent weakening of the fa- brie. Dampness can be excluded from the interior by filling small cuts as they appear with one of the rubber "putty" compounds found on the market. - _ Even when the car is standing, the; strain on the fabric is great. If the) car is to stand any length of time it should be raised by jacks or Blocked to relieve the tires of the weight, The viscosity of oil has a marked. effect on tlie'rapidity of acceleration of the engine and also on its horse- power. The viscosity, of course. is less for the lighter oils. It is, there- fore, quite evident that any oil will not properly lubricate your motor. Determine from the oil manfacturers or the car manufacturers the proper grade for your engine and use it re/ru- larly. Temperature has an important bearing on the viscosity of oil, and you will find that if your car uses a medium oil in summer a light oil for winter is usually to be recommended. “Then your car enters the, garage splashed with mud and water, take time enough before locking the Kar- awe door to go over the oar with the hose and remove the dirt before it cakes on. Then. it you are careful of the finish of the car, you will "cha, mois" it and not allow the water to dry on the surface. This is particu- larly important on a cold day. Water. when allowed to freeze over the varn- ish, injures it, causing cracks. and leaves the more) delicate underneath paint unprotected, Cleaning need not be limited to the outside of the car, and the enclosed cars of the cold months should re- ceive proper attention inside. 0sual- ly this consists of a good, thorough brushing which effectively removes the dirt. Glass is easily broken on a morning' when the thermometer mercury is trying to creep down into the bulb, The cold makes the glass more brittlr and a sharp jerk on the windshield to change its position will often crack the glass. It is high time to give thought to a non-freezing solution for the radiator. Freezing in any part of the system causes serious damage. such as cracR- ed water jackets, breakage of pipe or radiator leakage. Many different 1i- quids may be used in combination, with the waterto lower the freezing point. Several proprietary tton-treez- es are highly spoken of and guaran- teed. However, many motorists pre- fer a solution of water and wood alco hol. \Vhen alcohol is used. a better cooling effect is obtained by adding no more than is necessary to prevent freezing at the lowest winter tem- perature usually reached. The follow- ing table will help to determine just what the proportion should be: A mixture _of 20 per cent. wood sl- cohol freezes at 10 degrees above zero. A mixture of 30 per cent. wood al- cohol freezes at.5 degrees below zero. A mixture of 40 per cent, wood al- cohol freezes at 30 degrees below zero. _ " of shorter and TIMES & GUIDE, WESTON zero A mixture of 50 per cent. wood al- cohol freezes at 35 degrees below Alttohol should be added from time to time to make up the loss which will occur from evaporation. In some cases kerosene has proved an eminently satisfactory non-freeze. The radiator should, of course, be covered when the car is allowed to stand idle; and if it is to remain in the cold for any length of time, let it face the wind, and not back up' into it. It left in the latter position, the wind has a' clear passage under the car and above the drip pan to the motor. Hood and radiator covers are worth many times their cost. Turning from the winter motorist to his more timid hibernating breth- ren who "put up" their cars for the winter in "depd storage," a word of advice may prove serviceable. The prime object to have in mind is protection against cold and damp- ness, two factors which do more in- Jury to your car than 20,000 miles of driving. The first and obvious thing to do is to look over your garage and see if it is weather proof. If it could be hermitically sealed it would be ideal, but as thisis impractical, do the next best and see that all cracks and openings are closed up, doors fit properly and generally prepare it so that your car will be snug and warm as possible. Now as to the prepara- tion of the car itself: _ Wash and thoroughly clean the car and jack it up from under the frame. Do this by placing four wooden tres- tles under the frame, the best points of support being close up against the two front shackle bolt brackets of the front springs. Supporting the chassis in this manner relieves all weight from the springs and wheels. Remove all tires from the rims and completely exhaust air from the inner tubes and rut/them down well _with soapstone, sprinkle with French chalk, fold them up perfectly flat, care being taken not to crease them, and place in innerr-tubtr bags. The tires should be laid down flat. Store both tires and tubes in a dark, dry, cool but not cold place. Cover with burlaps or paper or old bags. Light is deleterious to rubber. Clean and paint all rims. Drain off water rom the radiator and cylinder block. Flush out the radiator with hose. To in- sure that all water has been emptied from cylinder' block and water, start up motor and run slowly for a min- ute. This will convert any water into steam which might have collected in the water jackets. Replace any plugs removed to drain oft the water and close drain cocks. Empty gas tank and drain carburetor. , tylse6hnec't eiecfrica], cables at bat- tery and remove the batfery‘ Smear ends of cable with vasglihe. (Battery should be taken 'tty a charging station and recharged every month or so in order to preserve it if less than six months old, otherwise have station "dry" store it for-you.) Wipe all exposed metal and ma- chined parts of motor and transmis- sion clutch, springs, steering gear, etc. with oil-soaked rag. Put the top up and cover the whole car with a dust sheet, which will completely cover the car on all sides and attach tape or cords to the ends and tie together un- derneath the can .Also write the following reminders on a tag and tie to the steering wheel, so that you will be. sure to do these things when you want to again drive your car in the spring: _ Fill radiatov with water. See that drain cocks are closed. _Emptsr oil sump arid i‘efill with fresh oil. _ Thoroughly oil and grease as per oiling chart Have battery installed. Flush out carburetor with gas. List of Headlights Which May be Used Under New Law., Secretary w. G. Robertson, of the Ontario Motor League, states that the following headlights have been approved by the Ontario Government for use under the new headlight law: Sun-Hay, Holophane, Sills, (green- top), and (clear); Denzer, Primolite, Violet Ray, Sunlite, Kopps, Liberty, Macbeth, Clamert, Patterson, Lee- Knight, MacBride. Levelite. Raydex, Conophore (clear and novial); Me- Kee, ngoode, Shaler Roadllghter, Legalite, Alvo. stopglare,' Johnston, National and Ryan. ISSUES STRICT ORDER REGARDING HEADLIGHTS Some hundreds of new 1921 motor vehicle licenses were, issued yesterday by the Motor Vehicle Branch ot the Department of Highways, at 18 Queen's Park. The department of- ficials are again following out their policy of issuing licenses first to big firms which have a number of cars. This year the American style of em- bossed plate is being used. From W. A. McLean, Deputy Min- ister of Highways, came the state- ment yesterday that notices are soon to go out to municipal authorities throughout the Province, informing them that the law with respect to headlights on motor vehicles is in ef- feet, and should be enforced. The statute provides that every car must have an approved form of headlight device. _ Opportunity is but a doughnut with the rim in someone's stomach. Ask anv man who has made good, and he will tell you that opportunity is but a date on the calendar-a time when an individual woke up. Opportunity is a while Work, with arr probable chance. Opportunity may be a chicken house, it may be a saw mill, or it may be a violin, but who ever heard of a chicken house, a saw mill, or a violin making a success, all alone? Opportunity is as useless as monkey fat. as hopeless without work as try- ing to stop up a rat hole with com- mon cheese. The man who depends on an oppor- tunity alone, the fellow who refuses to work with an opportunity, is as useless on earth as a buttonhole with- out a button. The man who sits down and says he is waiting for an opportunity to turn up is as unwelcome in society as a looking glass to a woman who has just recovered. from a severe case of smallpox.
