TIRE MAINTENANCE.


Tire maintenance is the theme that
seems to be never-ending, due to the
fact that the cost of tire, like the cost
of oats, represents an item that must be
noticed in the cost Of transportation.
In the meantime, from the horse point
of view. the oats are kept in tight
bin, and they are measured out to the
horse with some care. When it comes
to tires, they are put on the wheels
with some care, and they roll along the
road. taking the .brunt of the work.
The great question, from the n,ainten-
ance point of view, is to give the tires
the best possible attention, initiating
them fully, which is not always done,
and keeping them as free as possible
from the little wounds that allow wat
err with mildew to enter and destroy
the fabric.

something entirely new instead of a
plan that had been tested in other
countries from time out of mind.
The forty-eight postal savings
banks estimated at second-class

months 1864 open accounts. The de-
posts footed up $13S,S69, or $21. 5J
per depositor. Only 259 accounts
were closed during the two months.
Each postal bank had an average of
seventy-six open accounts. Bessemer

Editor The News:
The terrible suffering and want of

that you will accept the contributions
and forward to the Red Cross Society.
Thousands have already died of star

within their means, to the relief of
these suffering people.

Rev. G. P. Bostick makes the follow

There are two widely separated
sections of China now suffering from
very severe famine-one in Human
province caused by the overflow of
the Han river last September, the
other in An Hwei and adjoining
provinces occasioned by the heaviest
rains ever known in that region in
August and September, resulting in
the complete destruction of the au-
tumn crops.

that 100000 people within seventy
five miles of their home are in real
suffering and that without heroic helI
from the outside world probably 1000,

He also writes that many people are
