THE ANDREWS ADVERTISER We are in receipt of the flmt Issue of The Andrews Advertiser. * / a neat four-page, five-column, all home-print newspaper, edited and owned by a brilliant WaiterborUn who secured his newspaper train ing In Walterboro. Editor D Cly-le Howell has fho^ yncrgy and deter mination to make this paper jo. if the people of the town and sur rounding communities will give him half r.. chance llhe purpose of the newspaper Is given thus ITy the edi tor: "To record accurately, simply fnd accurately the moral, Intellec tual, industrial E.nd political prog ress of Andrews In particular and Oeorgetoun and Wllllatnehnrg counties in general ’’ The editor very pertinently suggests that e Intends to mc-ke the paper a •‘Howelllng’’ success. Here’s hoping he may exceed his fondest expecta tions. 1XVKHTMiATE BY ALL MEAN# Flnce the election there have been numerous whispering* that things were not as clean Id Col leton at the first ’ primary as they should hare been. We have heard of several irregularities «. a num ber of polls, such as minors voting, repeating &nd improper influencing o" voters. We do not know if these irregularities were wide spread,-but there seems to hare been too much of such practices. Then, in the matter of making proper returns by managers there have been- many technical violations of the rules, to say the least. Very *0w club rolls were sent in, and some poll lists were also left at home. It would not be a bad Idea for the county executive committee when j it meets Thursday of this week to i tabulate the returns of the secotvd primary to go into he matter of the proper returns for the first primary in so far as the State box es tCTe concerned, as these boxes are intact. If there is nothing wrong there cmi be no objection of know ing It beyond the shadow of doubt, and If there Is something "rotten in Denmark” the State sub-committee should know it, so that we iptght be given our medicine along with the rest of the State. It will be a mistake to let the matter go as It stands, and for the county ex ecutive committee to appear indif ferent. Let the light ahioe. LOST. / LOST—Wednesday.

No more high- toned. campaign could hove been conducted than has been that off this county, aD.l .those responsible, for it are to be praised Of course every candidate could not be suc cessful—the majority of them hivl to lose out, but there are no wounds ♦o heal, as might have been the cans if bitterness In the campaign had prevailed. Notable has been the expression of appreciation by those who rtfn, nnd those who "also ran." Tbey have thanked the people who voted for them and they have thanked those who did not—at least they bsve said they cherished no ill will. In other words they do not feel as do some office seekers high er up that because a person voted against them such persons are persons enemies We congratulate the gentlemen who ran for office in Colleton.

South Carolina has no law regulating the quality of gasoline offered for sal*». and the farmer must sometimes accept Inferior gasoline or do without. The low grade gasolines contain cheaper, less volatile oils, and do not va porise easily, especially in cold weather. Pouring hot water on the corburetor will help to get the en gine started In ccee there is this trouble, and the heat from the en gine itself will usually vaporise the gasoline after the engine warms up. Cere should be exercised In ap plying hot water into the csrburo- tor. If gasoline l contair« water it may be removed by straining through a piece of very fine wire cloth or through a piece of chamois skin. Regarding cylinder oil, on account of the very high temperature of the interior of the gasoline engiDe cylinder a special oil having a high burning point should be used In the cylinder. Ordinary machine oil or steam engine cylinder oil, should rover be used as the heat of the gasoline engine cylinder chars these oila and covers everything inside the cylinder with a deposit of car bon that soon prevents contact in the sp&rker and stops ignition. The writer has observed the case of one gasoline engine which was in excellent condition being discarded by the operator, on the ground that It could not be depended upon, when the only trouble was that the operar tor,"despite repeated advice to the "contrary, insisted on filling the lubricator with any oil that looked black and thick. Use a good grade of gasoline cylinder oil and not more of it than the manufacturer’s directions call for If ignition is by means of a bat tery otie secret of successful oper.> tion is to know your battery. Ev ery gasoline engine operator should have a battery ammeter which may be bought for a small sum, and with this the battery should be tested fre quently A good quality of dry cell I suitable for ignition should read from twenty-fif# to thirty am peres when new, and a cell should be thrown away when it will read lower than six amperes. One dead cell in a battery greatly reduces its power and should be replaced as soon as discovered. Ba-ttery connections should be examined frequently, as t^ey are very disposed to work loose, especial ly If the battery box is subject to any ahaking. A source of tronbl# In gasoline engine operation is the occurrence of the spark at the wrong time. When the spark occurs in the cylin der the gaseous charge is ignited and burns very rapidly, producing the pressure in the cylinder. Since a small amount of time is requir ed for the maximum pressure to he established a.fter Ignition occurs it is necessary for ignition to oernr slightly before the piston reaches the end of the compression stroke Id order that the piston may he started on the working stroke with the greatest pressure acting on it If Ignition occurs any after the end of the compreslion stroke, a very great loss of power results. When It is necessary to change the time of ignition it can be best LEGAL SUMMONS FOR RELIEF. CITATION. The Bute of'South Carolina,' Colleton County. COMMON PLEAS. iH. D. Padgett, Esquire.
