With the coming of Spring and the increase in traffic, that is a question which should receive consideration from every motorist, according to Mr. E. D. Bottom, Ford Motor Company, Atlanta, Ga. The increased speed of today’s cars has in some respects been paralleled by increased braking qualities, especially through the ap plication of brakes to all four wheels, he pointed out, but in spite of the fact that acceleration is ap plied only through two wheels and braking power through all four, quicker stopping in an emergency Is a vital need. “The words ‘stop’ and ‘go’ are learned today before the ABC’s,” he said, “but many motorists pay too much attention to the ‘go’ and not enough to the ‘stop.’ “First * of all, eygry motorist should make sure that the brake? of his car are properly adjusted but his responsibility should begin with the purchase of the car. Has It efficient brakes? That is more important than the question of horsepower. ;“The true index of braking ef ficiency is the amount of braking surface per ppund of car weight. The less weight an inch of brake surface has to stop, the easier it will be, to do, it, and the less wear there will be on the lining. The Ford V-8, has an unusually large braking surface—186 square inches, This is equivalent to approximately seven and one-third square inches per 100 pounds of car weight and is greater than the average of all cars.” Asked whether mechanical or hydraulic brakefc are the safest, Mr. Bottom said: “Let me suggest that you name the first five large and high-priced cars that come to your mind.

The bonds of the Federal Farm Mortgage Corporation have found very ready acceptance by farmers and their creditors in the Columbia District of the Farm Credit Admin istration and a recent survey made throughout the United States shows that almost without exception the bonds are accepted instead of cash. Simplified Ignition Timing- Hairbreadth accuracy in timing motor ignition, heretofore a job for a trained.expert, is made so simple that anyone can do ii in a few min utes by an ingenious application of stroboscopic principles developed by Chevrolet engineers. As a re sult* tej'owner of any ,1934 Chevro let"'cafor truck may roll it into an official service station and have his timing perfectly adjusted with even less trouble and delay than are involved in having his battery checked; in fact, without even stoppng his engine. An accuracy in timing to one-half of one de gree is readily obtained. The Chevrolet arrangement is to use a polished steel ball, pressed into the rim of the flywheel, as a marker, instead of the usual faint groove; and to provide a simple and inexpensive means of making the ball clearly visible and seemingly standing still every time the spark Dlug of No. 1 cylinder fires, while ;he engine is running at idling speed. This stroboscopic effect is ch ained by using a special Neon lamp connected to the spark plug. With he engine running at 500 r. p. m.. :he lamp illuminates the ball for in instant 250 times a minute. If he timing is correct, the ball ap- 3ears directly under the fixed jointer. If it doesn’t, correction is effected by loosening the distribu tor clamp and rotating the unit gradually until the ball and pointer line up exactly. Locking the dis- ,i ibutor in this position ends the operation. Chevrolet engineers have found h?t the ability to time an engine ’ Mle it is running brings better re sults than even an expert job with the engine stopped. Ordinarily, timing is checked only during infrequent engine tune-up jobs at service Stations. By simpli fying the Job, Chevrolet enables owners to keep their engines at maximum performance capacity by frequent timing. Ask the children what kind of meat they would like and the ans wer nine times out o^Tten" will be, “Meat loaf?" So a variety of meat loaf recipes comas in handy.
