Air Cooling.

At first one is inclined rather to pooh-pooh air-cooling, as there are several minor disadvantages, such as the smell of burnt oil and the great quantity that one has to use ; also in place of the radiator, the open space protected by wire, which leaves the cylinders exposed, makes the engine more noisy than one hears with a nicely fitting bonnet. On the other hand, one does away with the water arrangements, which, of course in certain countries, is an immense advantage. The time has not yet come for dogmatising on the point. For the present it is certain that some very reliable runs have been done with the air-cooler in rough country.
