If your car has exhaust gas pressure for the gasoline feed, it is advisable to make an examination of the feed strainers and other cleaners, through which the gas passes on its way to the tank. If a car is in continual use or is using excessive amounts of oil and gas, the dirt accumulated in the strainers will naturally be heavier and the in spection should he made more often. TO HOLD SCREWS. The screws used in various places about a motor car often work loose. It is possible sojnetlmes to hold them se curely in place by using a small staple, such as is utilized in fastening up wire netting. The staple is driven into the wood, so that it lies in the slot in the screw head, effectively locking it. | "wr rnrrirrnwnwrrwnn —n um—i ■iw«MiMßMmMiu»juiLkjiLiLUj-_L_i_LjiLwjju-.-. lxllijl o. . ■ $1985 Fully Equipped Electric Self Starter, Electric Lights, all of the latest improvements that have been tested and found to be good.

Only Concern Maintaining Service Stations m Atlanta SJfflffl KICKS Oft COST Os ITS HIGHWAYS SAVANNAH, GA., tham county is looking for a new lna . terial to keep its country roads in con dition. The road commisisoners want to discover a material that can l„. put down as cheaply as gravel and that will wear longer. The roads of the county now cost S3OO a mile each year to maintain, even when they are kept up with convict labor. Most of the roads in Chatham eountv arc paved for a width of 16 feet, it has been suggested that It might be a good thing to put iA a roadway 12 feet wide of some more lasting and durable material than gravel. Brick has been considered and discarded be cause of its initial cost. Asphalt block has also been given consideration, but it has not been adopted so far be cause of its cost. There is a compo sition made up of asphalt and granite, but this is not entirely practical here, because of the great distance the stone would have to be transported. i n lo calities where the stone is easily ac cessible this style of road paving has been adopted with much success. It has been suggested that it would be feasible to have a narrow roadway of say 12 feet in the center of the thoroughfare, flanked on either side by a’ good gravel paving.
