A ‘brief explanation may be interesting: Chief among the difficulties expcnencedmthe use of the old types of starting and lighting batteries are the buckling of platés due to inferior materials and faulty construction, and the i deterioration of the plates due not only to the above causes, to an out of date method of combining What uknownastha oxide paste with the grid to form the plate. " More than any other ane factor this paste and its proper combination with the grid determine the life and service of & storage battery. Its action in connection with the acid soletion liberates the power stored in the battery, and this power is great crhttle,andthekfeofthebarttaylongorshmuflum is good or bad. If the plates ar¢ not compact, solid, homogenous, they will easily wash away or break down under shock, and the life of the battery will be only one month, two months, or six months, as the case may be. ' The Old Method of Construction Briefly, and without going into obscure technicalities, the common method of making battery plates is to “hand-paste” them. The workman rubs the oxide paste (which “sets” very quickly) into the grid by hand, on one side, and then turns it 1 AT g ¥ ‘We Want Dealers to Handle This Remarkable Battery.
