Feuy motorists realize that half of ordinary 
oil is wasted by excessive evaporation 
O UT OP OIL! 
Yet you started 
with a full supply 
—more than enough, 
you felt sure, to bring 
you safely home again. 
If you take the cap 
off the oil filler you 
will see the oil evap¬ 
orating in a thin 
cloud of smoke. The 
intense heat of the 
engine—200° F. to 
1000° F. —causes or¬ 
dinary oil to evap¬ 
orate rapidly. 
How to prevent watte 
Only an oil that resists heat will prevent 
rapid evaporation and waste. In labor¬ 
atory tests, as well as in road tests, some 
oils make a very poor showing, their losses 
by evaporation running twice as high as 
Veedol, the lubricant that resists heat. The 
average loss in ordinary oils is 40% more 
than in Veedol. When measured by the 
number of miles per gallon, Veedol is more 
economical than ordinary oil, because of 
this reduction of evaporation. 
Ordinary oil not only evaporates rapidly, 
but also breaks down under the heat of 
the engine, forming a large part of its bulk 
in black sediment which has no lubricat¬ 
ing value. 
Sediment crowds out the 
good oil on the metal-to- 
metal surfaces and pre¬ 
vents it from efficiently 
lubricating the fast mov¬ 
ing parts. Loose bearing® 
are almost always the re¬ 
sult of using poor oil. 
Engine knocks, broken 
connecting rods, scored 
cylinders, slapping pistons 
are an inevitable result. 
After years of experimentation, Veedol 
engineers evolved a new method of refin¬ 
ing by which a lubricant is produced which 
resists heat. This—the famous Faulkner 
process—is used exclusively for the pro¬ 
duction of Veedol, the scientific lubricant. 
How Veedol, the scientific lubricant, re¬ 
duces the formation of sediment by 86% is 
shown by the two bottles illustrated above.

Various Hog Questions 
(Continued from page 702) 
veloped a frame that can be easily cov¬ 
ered with flesh when the grain ration is 
increased, you will have established a 
healthy pig with an engaging appetite, 
and the bulk of the flesh, being put ou 
rapidly, will be firm and palatable. 
2. Garbage cannot take the place of 
tankage in a grain ration, although it will 
supply considerable protein to supple¬ 
ment a purely corn ration. If you cannot 
secure the tankage, oiltneal may be substi¬ 
tuted. Ten pounds of oilmeal is equiv¬ 
alent in feeding value to about 0 lbs. of 
tankage. 
3. If you desire to raise two litters of 
pigs a year, then it would be prudent to 
wean the pigs at au earlier age; say when 
they are seven or eight weeks old. Dry 
up the sow, and she may be mated agaiu 
two or three weeks after the pigs are 
weaned. I prefer to have the brood sows 
farrow iu March and September. 
An Example of Milk Costs 
Now that the war is over and no milk 
strike is ou at the present time, the dairy¬ 
men will figure up their bank account and 
see if they cau find the enormous profits 
that milk dealers, city fathers and a large 
share of the people of the city of New 
York gave the farmers credit for making 
from the high prices of milk rhe past 
Winter. As the fifth Liberty loan will 
be on very soon it will be a good place to 
invest the said profits. We hear much 
said about profiteering in many lines of 
business. The dairymen have been 
charged with everything, but it slips off 
like water on a duck's back. Do you 
really think the farmers are profiteers? 
We often see statements of the amount 
some farmers have turned off their farms. 
Just wait and see them buy the bonds. 
Now we have the Borden's statement that 
they paid out $70,000 to the farmers for 
milk. We want to know where this 
money goes to and who gets it. Does the 
farmer get his share of this amount? 
Some of the big corporations that buy 
milk control the feed business. With 
the advance in the price of milk, up goes 
the price of feed, two points to one. Then 
again, dealers watch each other. One 
dealer who had lowered the price on cer¬ 
tain lines of feed received a telephone call: 
“You are a fool for selling feed at. that 
price. You can just as well get the price 
we are getting as sell it for less.” And so 
it goes. The Dairymen's League is trying 
to get the cost of milk for the farmers, 
but where are the profits that every busi¬ 
ness firm must get above cost or they will 
go up the flume? How long can the 
dairymen stay iu the business with the 
present price of feed? Many of them 
have stopped making Winter milk, and 
only milk cows iu the Summer. What 
will city people do then? Auction sales 
of cows are on every side. The high cost 
of labor and the scarcity of help on the 
farms will have its effect on the milk 
business in the near future. We want 
Hoover to take charge of the feed busness, 
and let him say how much profit the 
grain sharks shall have. The Warren 
formula on the cost of milk and how it is 
determined has been thoroughly consid- 
| ered. Let us get right down to cost of 
milk at present prices. 
By the sudden death of a tenant I 
took charge of and milked 32 cows from 
January 1(5 to March 1. .74 days. These 
cows were grade Holsteins. one-third 
strippers, some farrow, balance fresh 
since last Fall. An accurate account was 
kept of the cost of feed and help during 
this time. The cows were fed a grain 
ration of four quarts twice a day consist¬ 
ing of gluten, middlings, ground oats, 
hominy and oilmeal, at $3.25 per 100 lbs., 
with plenty of early-cut hay. 
The following was the milk yield : 
January. 10 days— 
9.121 lbs. at $4.23.
