Many people comment on the big
mileage that Maxwell cars obtain in
day after day performances. There
are thousands of automobile drivers
who do not understand how the
Maxwell drivers get from twenty to
fifty miles bn one gallon.
In order to get the greatest gaso-
line efficiency from a Maxwell car.

the motor in perfect working order.
Clean oil is necessary. The car-

The bearings should be kept clean,

Tira* are to be filled to full capac-
ity, about sixty-five pounds pres-
sure being required. When driving
the windshield is best tilted back,
so as to offer as little resistance
as possible to the wind. Brakes
are not to be allowed to drag.
It is best to maintain a speed of
about twenty miles an nour. or
thereabouts. The driver in keeping
the feed pressure even and steady
assures greater economy as fluctua-
tion uses up more gasoline than a
steady flow Coasting is legitimate
and is highly important in the sav-
ing of fuel. Where the grade is
long it is best to shut the engine
entirely off if the grade is short,
better results are had if the engine
is kept barely turning over. The
gasoline consumption is not as great
by this as it is in starting the
engine.
, Evening is the best time to make
long drives, as the gasoline lasts.

By following rules which have ,
proved efficient any Maxwell driver
ma v make big mileage. It is neces-
sary to take the best of care of a
car at all times to gain the benefits ,
of gasoline consumption. If the di-
rections are followed any driver will
get results that will be a surprise
to him.
