wings to pre-
“Pinioning”
In clipping a chicken’s
vent flight, feathers of one wing
should be cut so that when the chick
en starts to fly it will fly unevenly.
This should be repeated every year |
after the chickens have molted. If |
the feathers of new chickens are |
plucked when the chicken is only a |
few days old it will never grow long
foathiols This is culled pinioning.

Meteoric Temperatures
According to experts, falling meteor-
ites are fused of white heat on the
outside as a result of air friction, but
inside they are extremely frigid—more
than 400 degrees below zero, which
is approximately the temperature of
outer space.

Is Old Superstition
Just when the groundhog idea start-

that the weather on Candlemas day
is an indication of the weather for
the rest of the winter is old. It has
prevailed in Europe for centuries. The
Germans still have a saying that “the
shepherd would rather see a wolf in
his stable on Christmas day than the
sun.”

ONE of the first things you
will notice when you drive
the new Ford is the quick,
effective, silent action of its
six-brake system.
This system gives you the
highest degree of safety and
reliability because the four-
wheel service brakes and the
separate emergency or park-
ing brakes are all of the
mechanical, internal ex-
panding type, with braking
surfaces fully enclosed for
protection against mud,
water, sand, etc.
The many advantages of
this type of braking system
have long been recognized.
They are Brought to you in
the new Ford through a
series of mechanical im-
provements embodying
much that is new in design
and manufacture. A particu-
larly unique feature is the
simple way by which a spe-
cial drum has been con-
structed to permit the use of
two sets of internal brakes
on the rear wheels.
A further improvement
in braking performance is
effected by the self-center-
ing feature of the four-
wheel brakes — an
exclusive Ford de-
velopment. Through
this construction, the entire
surface of the shoe is
brought in steady, uniform
contact with the drum the
instant you press your foot
on the brake pedal. This
prevents screeching and
howling and males the Ford
brakes unusually silent in
operation.
Another feature of the
Ford brakes is the ease of
adjustment,
The four-wheel brakes
are adjusted by turning a
screw convenienily located
on the outside of each brake
plate. This screw is so
notched that all four brakes
can be set alike simply by
listening to the “clicks.”
The emergency or park-
ing brakes on the new Ford
require little attention. How-
ever, should they need ad-
justment at any time, cons
sult your Ford dealer for
prompt, courteous, and 2co-
nomical service. He works
under close factory supers
vision and he has been spe-
cially trained and equipped
to help you get the greatest
possible use from your car
over the longest period
of time at a
mum of wreuble and
