cousin to the «corvlier. and both are
bound to become wiser as time goes
on. says R. O. Allen, writing in Amer­
en Motorist on the folly of driving
motorcars up steep hills In high gear
-olely for boasting purposes.
Continuing Mr. Allen says:
“I fully understand that the modem
automobile Is made to clliub almost
anything but trees. Rut 1 wish to
demonstrate that to climb a steep hill
on the high gear Imposes the hardest
kind of work not only on the engine,
but also on every other part of the
car. The low gear ratios are provided
for hill climbing and they should be
used for it.
Work of Automobile«
“It may be well here to consider a
little more carefully the amount of
work performed by an automobile
climbing a gradient on. say. a gear
ratio of three to one. A ratio of three
to one means that one revolution of
the rear wheels Is produced by three
revolutions of the engine shaft. With
the lower gear ratio, the Intermediate
■nd the low, the number of engine
revolutions becomes still greater as
compared to the number of road-wheel
revolutions.
“Il It not so difficult to compute with
exactness the distance which a car Is
propelled by one explosion In the en­
gine cylinder and the power consumed
In hill climbing. The circumference
of a 32-lnch wheel Is approximately
1(M) Inches, and In covering one mile
as fast us the road wheels. It will re­
quire l^flM) revolutions of the gear
shaft to propel the car one mile. Thus.
If such a car should proceed at the
rate of 30 miles per hour approximate­
ly 950 engine revolutions per minute
are required. With two power strokes
at every revolution there are 1.900
revolutions per mile and each explo­
sion propels the car one foot and four
nnd a half Inches.
The Stag is one of the latest and best additions to the famous
Deere Line of Riding Plows. la light in weight, aimple
and durable in construction—full of genuine merit,' and has
shown its mettle and utility in every test it has been put to.
It has amply demonstrated by its good work its right to be
classed aa a strictly u|»-to-date. high-class farm tool. It la
certain to suit tne most critical farmer and be a money*
maker and a labor-saver for hitu.
Radical police action to check holdup* robberies. assaults and killings. X
which It Is «aid. have reached a dangerous stage, has been taken by the
Philadelphia police department In the formation of a heavily-armed motor
corps. The car«, manned by expert riflemen, patrol nil parts of the city, day
and night.
The plan has already been tried with utiequaled success at
Ablngtmi. a suburb of Philadelphia. Chief of Police H. 8. l.ever of Abington,

and does its work perfect ease to the operator and team.
It la manufactured and sold as a tongueless plow—a tongue
not being necersary to best results, but one is supplied at
slight cost to those who perfer it that way. The Stag is the
simplest riding plow built,—anyone who can hook up a team
and drive 'em straight can operate it successfully. It pos­
sesses many superior features not found on other plows,

Federal Double-Cable-Base Cord
Tires are made extra durable by the
four twisted steel cables running
through the base of the tires, holding
them firmly to the rim.
This eliminates rim wear; prevents
the toe of the bead pinching tne inner
tube, thus preventing blow-outs and
rim cuts, and relieving the side walls
from undue strata.
Our method of moulding our cord
tires, with their separata layers of
cords thoroughly impregnated with
live, supple rubber, by air pressure
instead of tha old system of solid
moulds, adds greatly to the reaUiancy
and durability of Federal Tires.
Federal Double-Cable-Base Cord
Tires are saving money for those who
use them. They will save you money
