More than 240 new game laws were enacted during 1915-r-a larger number than in, any previous year except 1911, according to Farmers' Bulletin 692, Game Laws Tor 11915. Forty-three States held regular legislative ses sions, and in all of these States ex cept Arizona, Georgia, and Nebraska some changes were made in the stat utes protecting game. The largest number of new game laws passed in any one State was 01, in North Caro lina; but in California, Connecticut, Maine, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsyl vania, and Wisconsin the number reached 10 or more. Several meas ures were vetoed, including a general game bill in Idaho, the first bill ap propriating the hunting-license fund in Pennsylvania, a bill protecting lears in California, and three sections of the game bill in Washington. A number of bills were introduced for the purpose of harmonizing the Stte laws on migratory birds with the Fed eral regulations. In at least nine States changes were made which brought the seasons into substantia! agreement, viz, 'California, Connec ticut, Maine, Michigan, New Hamp shire, Tennessee, and West Virginia. In Illinois the seasons for all migra tory birds except coot and waterfowl, and in Washington for the smaller shore birds ,vere made to conform with the regulations under the Fed eral law. Uniformity was also se cured by provisions in the laws of Connecticut, Maine, New Mexico, North Dakota, Washington, and Wis cousin, prohibiting hunting between sunset and sunrise. On the other hand, Delaware adopted a resolution ontiosi-ig the migratory-bird law, and Ohio and Rhode Island, which had har monize their seasons in lul l, changed the seasons on waterfowl this year. As a result of the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States! on January 19, 1914, sustaining the alien hunting law of Pennsylvania, legislation prohibiting alien" from hunting or owning shotguns or rifles was enacted in at least four States Massachusetts. New Jersey, North Dakota, and West Virginia but cer tain exceptions based on property' eitialilieations were made in Massa chusetts and New Jersey. Close seasons extending for sever al years were provided for certain kinds of big game and also fbr game birds. Hunting mountain sheep was suspended in Idaho, Montana, and Washington, and goats were protected until 1918 in Montana. Moose were protected for four years in Maine, the iirst absolute close season on this species for ;!5 years since the sus pension of hunting from 1S7K to 1SS9. Antelone were given indefinite protec tion i i Now Mexico and .Montana. In Michigan, New Mexico, and Oklahoma prairie chickens were protected for sever:'' .us. Micbiga l extended complete protection also to quail, im ported pheasants, grouse, and wood ducks for live years. Minnesota pro tected doves, woodcock, plover, and wood durks until 191S. New Mexico gave protection to pheasants, bob whites, pigeons, and strains, Oklaho ma protected cloves, grouse, wood cluck; protected through the year. Oklaho ma gave such protection to pelicans, gulls, and herons. lennessee declared- ring-neck pheasants, bull bats, rob ins, and meadow larks to be nongame birds. In a few cases protection was removed from certain species nota bly the turkey buzzard in Delaware, Florida, and North Carolina, owls and starlings in New Hampshire, and cor morants in Illinois and North Dakota. For the first time in 12 years moose hunting is permitted in Wyoming, and for the first time since 1907 prairie chicken shooting is permitted in Indi ana. Novel Features erf State Laws. Among the novel features in the laws this year may be mentioned the declaration in the Florida law that ownership of game is vested in the respective counties: the provisic-n in the California law protecting spike bucks, or deer with unbranched horns., instead of a certain length; and the Wyoming experiment of allowing the killing of 50 bull moose under $100 licenses instead of an indefinite num ber during a limited season. Methods of hunting were restricted in Michi gan by prohibiting the use of auto mobiles in hunting partridges, and in Indiana by prohibiting the use of searchlights or other artificial lights attached to autos for hunting game on or near a highway. Several new restrictions on shipments appeared for the first time: Illinois prohibited importation from outside the State of any game excep deer legally killed; Pennsylvania prohibited shipment of game by parcel post; and Wisconsin, shipment under an alias. Connecti cut authorized the commissioners of fisheries and game to grant permits to bring in game lawfully killed out side the State, provided such game is not offered for sale. Quail. Notwithstanding the, agitation in favor of protecting quail for several years in some sections, no bills of this kind were passed this year, and !fl States still provide quail shooting. The seasons were shortened (! weeks in Oklahoma and 2 weeks in Nevada. Limits were established for the first time in Arkansas and New Hamp shire, reduced in Iowa from 25 to 15 per day, in Oklahoma from 25 to 10, m Minnesota from 15 to 10, and in creased in Nevada from 15 to 20. All but 14 of the States which permit nuail hunting now have a limit of 20 birds or less per clay. Waterfowl. All the States now allow water fowl hunting, but the wood dcuk is protected for several years through out the northern zone and in the south cm zone in the States of California, Kansas, and West Virginia. Daily bag limits were established for the first time in Arkansas and Connecti cut, reduced in Oklahoma from 25 to 10, and increased in Missouri from 10 to 15. Most of the States now have a limit of 25 or less per day. Open Seasons, Open seasons were lengthened i.i Montana on elk and deer 2-weeks; in Florida on deer and birds .'! weeks; in Minnesota on quail 20 days; and in Nevada on sage hens 4 1-2 months, cm grouse 1 month, and on quail Z cei: :. New Jersey reverted to ths former plan of hunting deer on 4 con secutive Wednesdays instead of 5 con secutive clays. Seasons were shortened in a num ber of States. In the case of big game Hie deer season was curtailed in Arkansas '' months; in Oregon and Washington 2 weeks. In New Mexico including the removal of protection in Florida, Nevada,' New Jersey, and Wyoming; establishment of a limit in Arkansas; and decrease in the lim its m Alaska, Michigan, Montana, and Nevada. Under present conditions deer hunting is permitted in 36 States, in about one-third of which the hunter is limited to one deer a season and in most of the others to two. Eighteen Sates protect does at all seasons and allow only bucks to be killed name ly, Alabama, Arizona, California, Geor gia, Idaho, Missouri, Mississippi, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Oklaho ma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Pennsylvania requires that deer killed shall have horns 2 inches above tlie hair, New York and Vermont at least 3 inches long, and West Virginia 4 inches long, while California prohibits entirely the kill ing of spike bucks.

Ragland Writes Interesting Letter on This Subject Can you give the meaning of the terms applied to rear axles floating, semifloating, live and three-quarter floating axlesr Ordinary motorcar nomenclature gives us three types of live rear axles, call ed respectively floating, three-quarter floating and semilioatliig. Live axles are those which turn, such as those named, while dead axles are those used on double chain drive ears and do not turn. The floating axle Is one that floats that is. it turns around, but does not carry nny weight It is used to gain rotary motion only. The semi floating axle, however, not ouly turns the wheels, but takes some of thci weight of the ear. The difference be tween these two types of axles is in the position of the wheel bearings. In the floating axle the wheel bearftiga are outside of the housing. The rear wheels of the car rest upon these bear ings. It can be seen plainly that If the wheels rest upon the bearings and the bearings upon the housing the housing must support the weight of the car. The end of the nxle shaft has some form of jaw clutch which fits Into depressions in the wheel hub. In the floating axle this connection be tween axle shaft and wheel is flexible, but In the three-quarter floating typo the end of the shaft Is permanently attache'd to the wheel, being held usu ally by bolts. In the semifloating type of rear axlo the bearing for the wheel instead of being outside the housing is Inside The wheel is placed on the nxle and held there by a key. Sometimes the ends of the axle shafts are square and the Inside of the wheel square, so that no key is necessary. With the wheels on the axle shafts, nuts are screwed on the ends of the shafts to prevent I the wheel from backing off. The nuts are locked with cotter pins. My engine seems to backfire or ignite the charge as it goes into the cylinder. The spark plugs have been out recently and are in good condition. The bat teries are new and the breaker points are set up as close as necessary in order to give a road spark at the plugs. What is the r cf the backfiring and the remedy . It appear.-! to he a case of a carbon ized motor. .Misfiring and overheating usually are good iniiieutions that there is n carbon deposit on the cylinder head and piston. Small protruding particles of this carbon become rod hot an. I ignite the charge the moment It enters the combustion chamber. When the car is moving rapidly the misfiring may not be so aggravated, hut when operating slowly or possibly idling the misfiring will bo in evidence, (.'heck up on the carburet'ir adjustments. Al though carbon will cause- heating, a rich mixture will show the same results. ascertain wneruer or uoi you nave any leaks around the Intake manifold that is, between the engine aud the manifold and also between the mani fold and the carburetor. When the cur is running idle see that there is no gasoline leaking. Should you find that there are no leaks it is advisable that you use an cxhiTust sleeve or drum around the ex haust manifold flexible tube running to the air bend in the carburetor, as by using this hot air you are able to keep the heavy gas from precipitating on the walls of the manifold and from running back to the carburetor when the car stops. With the extremely heavy gasoline which we are now get ting, in order to assist In the vaporiza tion and to hold this heavy gasoline in suspension, It is desirable to use hot air through the low speed air opening. If these adjustments are followed and there are no leaks there should be no further trouble. Madison Heights, Va. Mr. Chas. A. Ragland, of this place, writes; "I hava oeen taking Thedford's Black-Draught for indigestion, and other stomach troub les, also colds, and find it to be the very best medicine I have ever used.

Does an overhead valve motor give more power than a T or L head 7 Is it possible to get more miles per gallon out of gas with an overhead valve mo tor? It is claimed that a valve in the head motor of a given size, weight and man ufacture gives more power than mi I. head or T head of the same size, weight and manufacture. However, this is not always true. !t is elKliotili to get two motors In I. head or T head and a valve in the head which show the same design with tlie exception of the valve arrangement. It is possible that n T head motor of a certain size has incur power than n valve in the head of the same size, owing perhaps to the inlake inntip'ol'i desi ,n. the bearing design and webji! of the various reciprocal- lug parts, etc in ontor to answer yonr question cbcndlo- it would hp i:ece s'lrv to make aciual tests of three sii' h cng'nos.

Can a vibrator be converted to a non vibrator coil for use with a low tension magneto? A vibrator coil could he used as a noiivibrtitor cod by removing the vi brator mechanism entirely unci taking the primary and secondary terminals and attaching them to their proper places. Another way would be to short circuit the vibrator terminals. The coil then virtually becomes one of the nonvibniior type. This practice Is not recommended, and in connection with a low tension magneto It might result in considerable trouble. There would be little gained, us the magneto already has an Interrupter and Is de signed for use with a nonvihrating coll. Why is it advisable to space the pis Jon ring gaps in gas engines diagonally f It is advisable because the escapage of gas is hindered more than if the rings were cut straight.

Iiy shimming mi the cylinder casting you would tend to do just the opposite that is, you would increase the size of the combustion chamber and thus decrease the compression and power. A one-fourth inch plate would be too thick, if you use any at all take a one-eighth inch plate of light material, such as aluminum alloy. ion would put extra strain on the parts by increasing the compression but the motor you have can stand a little excess.
