Franklin air cooling not only equals water cool- ing but in addition has virtues not possessed by water cooling. The water-cooled motor consists of two separate mechanisms—the engine and the cooling system. If one gets out of order the other is disabled. o The Franklin motor is one mechanism—the en- gine. The cooling system is not a mechanism; it is not anything separate or distinct from the engine. It utilizes the fly wheel, the engine boot and the hood but does not add mechanism. There is not a single condition of water cooling the Franklin can not meet, but there are a number of conditions in which the water-cooled automobile can not meet the Franklin. The Franklin can meet the water-cooled automo- bile in any road test fast or slow, mud, sand or hills, and if the work is severe enough the Franklin will outdo the water-cooled automobile every time. The Franklin cooling system is unaffected by cold or hot weather; it does not require any attention. Model H, $3750. D, Model $2800.
