turned their attention more and more
to design.
how
It was natural that there should be
extensive adoption of some of the fea
tures of foreign made automobiles, for
these cars had always been superior In
design to American-made cars, a great
deal of hard work being involved In
their manufacture. It was also natural
that American manufacturers should |
take the opportunity to carry out their
own ideas of design. The one result |
has been to make all cars more allke.
Tell by Name Plate,
The one best way to tell one car |
from another is by the name plate on |
the radiator front of nearly every car. |
This is nearly always small and incon |
spicuous, and when a car is passing at |
a speed of 20 or 30 miles an hour it Is |
almost impossible to identify all cars
in this manner, Hub caps offer anoth-
er means of identification, as the hub
caps of virtually all cars are not only
distinctive, but are also usually
marked with some simple mark of
identification.
There are cars that are distinctive
enough in design to be identified In a
glance. There are cars of the “sport
ing” type, low and “rakish” and sug-
gestive of speed; the sight of such a
ear suggests only two or three possi
bilities,

Two general rules may be laid down
for the selection of beef,
United States Department of Agri-

cuts when meat Is to be prepared by
such methods as brolling or roasting.
Second: Buy the less tender cuts in
all cases for stews, bolled or braised
meat, pot roasts, Hamburg steak, meat
loaves, and soups. It should be re
membered that tender cuts of meat
are best not overcooked, also that
