GETTING OUT OF A BOG
Sometimes when a heavy car gets bogged considerable difficulty Is experienced in getting it out of the soft ground, and all the usual methods of dealing with such an emergency prove abortive. In such a cas e an excellent scheme is to join the spokes of the
front and rear wheels by a strong rope in such a way that when the rear
wheels turn they pull th e front wheels also. Thus the advantage of four wheel drive is obtained, while, as the front wheels are seldom in tiie mire so deeply as those at the rear, they may serve to pull the car on to firmer ground.
