To avoid battery trouble Geerr B Herd, local battery distrtbotor, advises keeping the battery fuEy cbarged. "The normal ' battery, "when folly charged, will net frees enitU tbe tem- pes-atave is S9 degrees oetow to, said. A tettery when tfiscnaraed will freeze at five degrees Abov. - Emrtng cold weather freqaent hs'flroweter read ings should be taken to be sura the ceil is well charged. "Above all, -don't add water unless yea run the engine and then take tbe car out for a abort spin. If you don't. tbe water will not mix and will remain on top, where K will freeze. "Remember that the discharge from a battery is heavier In cold weather because of tbe greater trouble in get ting the motor started, the shorter rams and also bsea-nse the lights are used far a longer period of time." Eadiator freexlne can be eliminated ty two methods. One is to drain ft. bat this Is an inconvenience, especially if the car is to stana between runs. Ami -freeze preparations can be added to the water that greatly reduce the freezing point. One of these la wood alcohol. A mixture of 80 per cent water and 20 per cent wood alcohol will re sist freezing down to 10 degrees above zero ; a mixture of 70 per cent water and 30 per, cent wood alcohol reduces tbe freezing point to 5 degrees below aero.
