(By Erwin Greer, President Greer College of Automotive and Elec trical Trades, Chicago, 111.) Many people believe that climbing hills in an automobile is merely a mat ter of changing gears and “steppin’ on it.” What they don’t know is that every engine has its best speed—a certain peak in its range where it develops maximum horse-power. The driver who studies his engine and finds this “peak” is to be congratulated1, for he gets the most out of his car—all the time. The average will stay in high gear on a 1 x 111 until the engine nearly knocks its head off. Why, we don’t know, though it is probably that he believes his car can make that hill and he intends to do it or break up the bus. But when he does drop down to second or low gear, and he must eventually, the car has lost its mo mentum and! the poor old engine must recover sufficiently to pick up proper ly and carry the car over the top. All of which is mighty tough on the en gine and sooner or later results in a repair bill. There are only two things to remem ber when climbing a hill: first to change into intermediate or first speed early and quickly, dropping the clutch back instantly; second, retarding the spark without waiting for the engine to knock. Now this speed changing on hills is extremely easy to do—on a type writer. In a machine it is difficult,— : until one gets the knack. Hence hill climbing is an art. Once 4this art is mastered there is nothing to it. Good gear changing consists in equating the peripheral velocity of the wheels about to be engaged while the gear lever is in neutral and then en gaging the gear. If by good judgment, you gage it right, the gear goes in silently, but if not quite right it goes in with a little grunt. To minimize this grunt, you gently | nress the gears together and feel them—tickle them, so to speak—so that when they do mesh the lever falls in. That is the secret. What might be a successful climb can be sp'oiled by a clumsy change of gears. Every second of time is very important if the grade is steep and the car is los ing headway. If you wish to be an expert in hill climbing you must practice. It is not au uncommon sight to see a driver fail at his first attempt in go ing over the top, while at his second attempt the grade is easily made. But it is the driver’s fault—not that of the car. Better practice now because sooner or later you will want to make a tour to the west coast and then you'll dis cover that what the natives call hills out there are the biggest mountains that you ever saw. t !A E QUALITY OF OUR SERVICE We never measure the quality of our service by the amount of compensation we are to receive.

Advance copies of an apple survey of the United States and Canada by Ralph W. Rees, horticultural agent of the New York Central Lines, deals iwith this fruit crop in an exhaustive manner and is certain to prove profit ably interesting to consumers as well as those actively engaged in the in dustry. In this survey Mr. Rees calls attention to the five outstanding fea tures which have affected the apple industry during the past twenty-five years: the development and wide use of refrigerator cars; the development of cold storages; the decrease in home orchards; the centralization of the apple industry and the increase of citrus and other competitive fruits. Mr. Rees, who for five years was extension professor of pomology at Cornell and previously with the facul ties of the Massachusetts Agricultural College and Oregon Agricultural Col lege, makes a careful study of the ap- i pie industry. Mr. Rees personally vis ited practically all of the apple grow ing territories and his reports on each section, including selection of varie ties, phases of growing, marketing conditions and other details, occupies a book of more than sixty pages re plete with graphs and illustrations. Ne':v York state as a whole will show an increased: production in Bald win, Rhode Island Greening, McIntosh and Delicious. There will be a de- The Lown Dry Goods Co • 9 Inc.
