EXHAUST MANIFOLD BIG
FEATURE AT REO EXHIBIT
Tests On New Device Proves An Add
ed Horse Power of 27 7-10 Per
Cent. With 18 Per Cent. Less Gas
oline
One of the •greatest features ex
hibited at the Arena show in the Reo
exhibit is the double exhaust manifold.
The large majority of the general pub
lic do not fully realize the importance
that this double exhaust manifold is to
the modern automobile. The exhaustive
tests made by the Continental motor
works, the largest automobile motor
works in the world, and the Strom
berg Carburetor Company, to deter
mine accurately the exact difference
made in the developed horse power be
tween a car equipped with a double
exhaust manifold and those equipped
with the old type of single exhaust,
are very interesting. These exhaustive
tests were completed this week and it
was positively proven 'beyond a doubt
that the added horse power to a car
equipped with a double exhaust mani
fold was 23 7-10 per cent, and that
j the gasoline consumption to produce
j this added horse power was 18 per
cent, less than is used with the old
I type of manifold.
Thife manifold feature as equipped
j on both the four and six cylinder Reo
j puts the car far ahead of the general
line of automobiles and is another
| proof positive that the Reo Motor Car
I Company are not only up to ever other
car but in a great many cases have
[ beaten the other fellows to it. Their
exclusive steering gear, one that is just
as safe after five years of service, is
another exclusive feature.
In the Reo are embodied a lot of
expensive features in construction
that are not duplicated in any ear un
der two thousand dollars. The Reo
drive pinion and shaft is made out of
a solid billet of steel. The strain on
both ends being carried by two Tim
ken (bearings all in a space of about
six inches. Ordinarily the pinion is out
separately and keyed to the shaft. An
unusual strain frequently shears off
the pin leaving the driver helpless. In
Reo construction this important part is
made out of one piece of steel, posi
tively eliminating any danger of any
breaking from the most extraordinary
strain. This and dozens of other fea
tures have made the Reo car so strong
and sturdy that the old 1910's are
still giving active service. All these
and many others can be seen in the
fine cabinet of parts that is displayed
at the show.—Adv.*
IS COLLECTING EVIDENCE
AGAINST BUTTER DEALERS
City Sealer of Weights and Measures
Reel Warns Fanners to Acquaint
Themselves With Laws Concerning
Goods in Packages
Dealers and farmers who attend the
city markets would do well to acquaint
themselves with the laws governing tho
sale of commodities in package form,
since City Sealer of Weights and Meas
ures Reel is collecting evidence which
will be used against those who do not
comply with the requirements of the
law. This applies especially to those
who sell butter in pound prints ami
lard in pound packages.
The consumer should refuse to ac
cept a package of any commodity uuless
it is plainly marked on the outside with
the net weight of the contents. The
dealer, whether he be from this city or
from the country, must see that his
goods are marked to comply with the
law, as follows:
"If in package form, the quantity
of the contents shall be plainly and
conspicuously marked on the outside of
t'he package in terms of weight, meas
ure or numerical count.
"The penalty for the first offense is
not more than $25, for the second of
fense not less than $25 nor more than
SIOO anil for the third and each sub
sequent offense not less than SIOO nor
more than $250."
The words "if in package form"
mean that if commodity of any kind is
placed in a box, basket or container
and sold by the box, basket or con
tainer it becomes a package and must
have the quantity of the contents
marked as provided by the law of
1913.
