A new and seemingly economical device for heating motor cars has just been put on the market. It utilizes the hot gases from the engine, taking them from the exhaust pipe before they reach the muffler and making them turn a rotor in the beater valve.
A radiator is heated, in a way simi¬ lar to heating by steam or hot water, and so quickly that the hot air begins to flow ^ moment after the motor is started. Only the lighter and cleaner gases are used, the heavier gases pass-

Ing direct to the muffler and so oat to tbe air.
It can be attached by any mechanic, t>elng inserted in the exhaust pipe be¬ tween the engine and the muffler, while the radiator can be inserted In the floor, under the seat, or wherever be mofit convenient And the heat can be regulated by raising or lowering a rod.
Advantages claimed for it are that it is odorless, noiseless, costs nothing to operate, and materially reduces the back pressure in the exhaust pipe.

Advice to Drivers. While the prudent driver seldom. If ever, removes his foot from the clutch podal while the car is in motion, it is advisable for him to learn to keep it in position without exerting pressure against tbe throwout mechanism. Resting the weight of the leg against tbe pedal not only tends to cause the clutch to slip, but produces friction between the stationary yoke and the rotating collar of the clutch. This, in time, produces wear and sometimes leads to more serious results. Be¬ cause of this risk some drivers never place the foot upon the pedal except when about to disengage the clutch, although always keeping in readiness to And it quickly in the ever-possible emergency.

A Good Roads Story. i A story is being told of an automo- I bile man who appeared before the gov¬ ernor of a state which has been some- i what backward in the promotion of ex¬ cellent thoroughfares. 'Good roads," he said, stepping forth from a delega- j tion, "are a blessing, and not dis- 1 guised, either, your excellency. They I promote industrial activity. They are a boon to the isolated inhabitants of I the rural districts—" "How are they?" asked the executive. "Why," said the automobile man, caught up in the middle of a thought and stam¬ mering, "it leads them to go to church oftener—because the trip is pleasant- er." After the laugh, the speaker con¬ tinued and made an excellent impres¬ sion, it is said.
Steering Wheel for Bicycle. A steering wheel instead of the usual handlebar is a feature of bicycle construction that is coming into vogue. The steering wheel Is 16 inches in diameter and is mounted on a special steering post. It is said to add to the-eomfort and convenience of the rider in handling his wheel.— Popular Mechanics.

The Blair Connty Motorcycle club cf Altoona, Pa., is planning to affiliate with the Federation of American Mo¬ torcyclists.
Irving Janke, winner of third place in the Savannah 300-mile classic, was guest of honor at a recent meeting of the Milwaukee Motorcycle club. He gave the club a vivid description of the Savannah race.
Two clubs recently afflllated with the F. A. M. are the Charleston (S. C.) Motorcycle club and tbe Hopklnsville (Ky.) Motorcycle club.
"I am much pleased with It," writes Louis M. Duval of Saki. Nigeria, West Africa, who recently received a motor¬ cycle from this country.
Employees of the Pennsylvania Water company of Pittsburgh use mo¬ torcycles to go to small repair Jobs, for Inspection of distribution mains, service lines and hydrants, and for answering hurry calls when a break is discovered.
"Abandoning the use of motorcycles would mean doubling the forces In the departnlents In which they are used." This is the declaration of H. C. Mor¬ ris, general manager of the gas com¬ pany of Dallas, Tex. The gas com¬ pany use? motorcycles In its inspeo- tion, distribution and collectioa de-
(Prepar«d by tha United StatM Depart¬ ment of Agriculture.) The length of time ice may be kept depends upon the character of insula¬ tion provided. This will naturally vary with the location of the tee house and the method of construction. An¬ other importaqt factor will be the cost of constmction.
The simplest type of ice preserva¬ tion conslBta in stacking the cakes in a compact mass on a well-drained site, as well protected as possible by nat¬ ural or artificial barriers from sun and wind, and covering the mass with sawdust, shavings, fodder, marsh hay, or any otber good Insulating material. Such a crude method is not to be rec¬ ommended except as a temporary makeshift for ice which is to be used early in the season. An Inexpensive Ice House for North- em States. An inexpensive Ice house that will give satisfaction in places where the temperature approximates that of New York City and localities to the north may be constructed as follows: \s a site for the structure choose a well-sheltered location convenient to the place where the bulk of the ice will be used during the season. If the area is not well drained naturally, crade the surface so that no surface water can ever flow into or through the building and so that the water from the melting of the ice will be quickly disposed of. In some in¬ stances it may be necessary 'o pro¬ vide tile drains laid 15 or 18 inches below the surface to care for this water.'
Having properly provided against water, both from without and from within the ice house, set a line of squared or flattened poles four feet apart, eo as to form a square of the dimensions desired. The height ot the poles should be the same as tbe length of the side of the square. If the greatest economy of space and the best keeping conditions for the ice are desired, i. e., a building 14 feet square should be 14 feet high. A house of this size will provide storage for a cube ot Ice 11x11x11 feet, which, without allowance for voids. Is equiva¬ lent to about thirty-eight tons. (A cubic foot of ice weighs approximate¬ ly 68 pounds, and one ton of ice oc¬ cupies nearly thlrty-flve cubic feet.) To complete the Ice house,, cut the posts.to a uniform height and nail a double 2x4 inch or 2x6 inch plate on top of theqi. Tbe sidea may be Inclosed by board¬ ing both inside and outside with rough lumber. To give a neat outside appearance tbe outside boards may be planed and ship-lapped, or ship- lap siding may be placed over the rough sheathing. The space between tbe two board walls may or may not be packed with sharings or sawdust. Tf packed, the packing material should be perfectly dry. The roof may be either a simple even-span one-third pitch roof, with the gables boarded up. or a hip roof.
In order that the house may be filled without unnecessary labor a continu¬ ous door should be provided In the middle of one end. Tbe door should be made In two or three sections, and RS the house is filled, loose planks of proper length should be at hand to place across tbe opening of the door to hold the packing material in place as the heap of ice grows In hel^cht.
The ice must be placed on a bed of Bswdust, shavings, or other packing material at least 16 inches deep, and the rick of Ice should not approach the side walls closer than 16 or 18 inchea, the inte^\,')ning space being filled with packing Wnaterial and thor¬ oughly rammed.v..i A
Masonry iceVHouaea. Instead of the cheap, temporary con¬ struction Just described. Ice houses of
; of ice should approach as closely as possible a cube in form. If the ma- ! aonry house is to be used in the same I manner as the temporary house no I inside lining will be necessary. The I packing used about the mass of Ice I may be allowed to come in direct con- I tact with the wall. A 13-inch brick I wall or a 12.lnch concrete wall will I provide the necessary strength. The masonry walls are not as good non¬ conductors as timber walls. It will I therefore be necessary for the protec- tiou of the ice to rely on the packing material rather than on the wall Itself. If the house is to be used for storing ice without the use of sawdust or shavings the construction indicated in the accompanying figure must be followed. The lining must be as com¬ plete on the floor and ceiling as on the side walls In order to provide safe insulation.
Masonry houses may be constructed entirely above ground or partly below the surface, as convenience or neces¬ sity may dictate.

Not Much Attention Paid to Them on
Account of Quarrelsome Nature—
They Are Wide Rangers.
The reason more guinea fowls are not raided is doubtless because of their quarrelsome nature and harsh cry, which render them objectionable to many persons. However, properly cared for, they can be made a source of profit. They are now selling in the markets of Poston, New York and Philadelphia for $1.25 to $1.40 per pair.
In Washington, they bring from twenty to thirty cents a pound. Guinea fowls are raised to considerable ex¬ tent In the South, but northern poul- trymen have not paid much attention to them. They are wide rangers, and if raised for profit, should be confined within reasonable bounds. They are hardy and will eat anything that an ordinary chicken will eat.
