Beet results will he obtain ed if oil level is maintained between "half full" and "full" marks on gauge. To get a correct reading ol the oil level gauge, the automobile should he approx imately level and t bfl engine not running When engine is running, the oil pre sure indicator on dash hhouldshow pros sure which will varv with the speed and ' temperature of the engine. lino pres sure is registered, the indication is lack ' of oil ;it crunkca.se, oil pump not work ing properly, or some obstruction or break iu oil passages. The engine should immediately be stopped and the trouble located anil remedied. At regular intervals, as recommended by manufacturer, or, iu the ahsence of such instructions, every 7 U miles, the oil in the crankcase reservoir should be entirely renewed in the following man ner : Fiusr, remove drain plug in bottom of crankcase, allowing all old oil to drain. This should preferably be done when engine is warm, as the old oil when iieated will drain faster, and less of it will adhere to the inner surface? of the crankcase. Next, replace drain plug and pour four iiiarts of ("alol Mushing Oil into crankcase through Idler pipe. Then start and operate the engine under its own power at a moderate idling Bpeed for from one to two minutes, by which time all oil passages and inner surfaces will have been cleansed by the action of the flushing oil. Again remove drain plug and wnen certain that crank case is thoroughly drained, replace plug ami refill crankcase reservoir with Iresh Zcrolene oil as specified. Apprnximat ely five quarts of oil are required. When Idling the reservoir through filler pipe, care should he taken that no dirt or other foreign matter is carried into the engine with the fresh oil.

The re cently adopted license laws and pro visions for a heavy bond on motor truck owners, according to local senti ment, placed an exhorbitant burden on motor truck operators in general. Or chardists, many of whom own such vehicles, utilized in the transportation of their fruit crops, declare that the law will prohibit them from operating their own vehicles, many of which are old passenger cars converted into truck service. Mr. Nesbit says that numerous local truck owners are withholding applica tion for 1 922 licenses until they secure more definite information on the new laws. Recause of the involved techni calities, Mr. fNestiit says, many ' me local truck men who have already ap plied for licenses for the current year, have had their applications returned.

Mr. Winans, who 1 says a quarry of excellent building stone is available at the very scene of the Miucture. thinks the stone bridge 1 can be built cheaper than a wooden span as now proposed by the county court. Mild "HtT Hits Town While no cases have resulted in aeri- ous consequences, an epidemic of mild 1 RS has Hood River in its grip. Memtwrs of the working force of JW per cent of the Homl River business bouse were absent from duty Monday. Many children are afflicted. I'.unty Health Officer Edgington. while he urges all affected to remain at home in bed, if possible, says no quarantine steps will be taken. The installation of big bunkers, which hold a total of 500 tons of coal enables the Taft Transfer Co. to i handle fuel with a maximum of econ I omy. Coal cars which carry f0 tons of j coal are now switched on a trestle track, where they are unloaded in a maximum of an hour anil a half. Cars have been unloaded in 10 minutes, j Formerly, utilizing old hand methods, two men required two days to remove ; the fuel. The coal is loaded out from the big bunker onto trucks or wagons by gravity. This results in- a saving. 1 The installation of the labor saving devices enables the Taft company to supply its patrons with the smallest possible cost. The Tift company, utilizing its big i storage building east of Hood river on ; the wharf read, is able to buy feed in such quantities as to effect a saving that is passed on to consumers. "We are endeavoring to so conduct our business, says L. E. Taft, "as to eliminate all posible expenses. Our saving will be effected and passed on as much as possible for the benefit of our customers.
