When fitting an inner tube it is
a good plan to dust a small duantl-
ty of tale or French chalk inside
the envelope Just sufficient to
cover the interior surface is all
that is required. Too much tale,
SAYS the Michelin Tire expert,
gradually accommodating into solid
Jumps is a frequent cause of pune-
lures. On the other hand insults
cient tale will not prevent the in
ner tube from sticking to the en-
velope.
Inner tubes should always be
perfectly clean and dry when fit
ting. Even the slightest moisture
should be avoided. 1t is COM
mon practice to lay tube on the
step of the car or even on the
ground previous TO fitting. This
is a very expensive habit. There
is always place to hang the tube
where it will be free from moisture
or dust Hang it over side
lamp or tire holder but never lay
it down where it will some in con-
tact with foreign and injurious
matter.
Inner tubes should always be
carried in waterproof bags such
as can be bought at any garage for
quarter. They should never be
kept in the original cardboard
boxes. says the Michelin Man. These
boxes are sufficient for the gar
age but not for storing tubes kept
in a car. Waterproof bags keet
the tubes away from water, oil ana
grease, but are not intended to
protect the tubes from sharp tools.
Always keep spare tubes in bags
and keep the bags away from met
al objects.

MAMMOTH WALL TO HIDE
USSTGHTLINESS AT NIAGARA
Highest Rubble-Stone Barrier
Almost Completed Below the


| Cataract.
Niagara Falls, N. Y. June s.
What is believed to be the highest
rubble-stone wall in the world Ii
nearing completion at Niagara Falls
and is expected to be finished by
the first of September. 1t is 40t
| feet long, and rises a sheer zoe
feet against the almost perpendi-
cuIar bank of the gorge through
which the river rushes, half mile
| below the cataract.
| The wall is under construction
| by one of the electric power COM
panfes on the American side, and
| was suggested by the scenic COM
mittee appointed by the president
| of the United States to cooperate
with existing agencies to make the
surroundings of the Falls worthy
of the cataract itself. For many
years both banks of the river were
VIGOROUSLY unsightly, but thanks
to the recently developed Queen
Victoria Niagara Falls park on
the Canadian side, the New York
state reservation on the American
side, and the assistance of tbs
power companies owning property
along the water front, the environ
nent Of the cataract will soon be
abcve criticism.
The wall in question. is made out
of huge pieces of stone of the
same as that which goes to form the
cliff itself-and originally blown
out of it. The wall is fourteen
feet thick at the base, entirely
concealing the pipes through which
water rushes to the turbines below.
In order to carry out the project
for improving the gorge, the power
company bought out five small and
unsightly factories, replacing their
variegated and unlovely architect
lre by it's uniform and impressive
front. 1t is expected that the wall
will eventually stretch all the way
rom the power plant to the state
thus overcoming the
principal remaining defect in the
of Niagara Falls,
Effort toward improving the en-
ironment of the stupendous cat |
aract is the final step in the cam
,aign to preserve the spectacle in
as one of the great nat
lral wonders of the continent.
Protection of the cataract itself has
already been secured through the
Canadian American waterways trea-
ty, which limits the water which
may be diverted for power pur-
poses to 10000 cubic feet per sec
ond on the American side, and
$4,000 cubic feet per second on the
Canadian side.
This treaty cannot become fully
operative in the United States until
the expiration of the Burton law
next spring. The allowance of 20,
| 900 cubic feet per second on thu
American side is only 400 cubic
feet more than the amount nov
actually in use. According to Gen
Bixby, chief of engineers, United
States army. the slight additional
diversion allowed cannot lower the
American Falls more than eighth
of an inch, which means that its
present splendor is permanently as
surcd.

PACIFIC COAST LABOR WAR
INDUSTRIAL WORKERS OF THE
WORLD MAKE TROUBLE IN
WESTERN CITIES.
Union Men In Pacific Coast Cities
Demand the Recognition Of
Their Organization.

San Francisco.-With the events OF
the last week, the struggle between
the employers of the Pacific coast
and the Industrial Workers Of the
World has narrowed down to two is
sues.
A manifesto issued by the San Die
go Free Speech League is making the
fight to spread the open shop propa-
ganda. The question Of higher wages
and shorter hours has been eliminated
at least, temporarily, in the North
west-by the stand of the strikers on
the sole issue Of recognition of the
Industrial workers. organization.
San Diego has been beset by the
free speech agitators since January l,
and the announcement was made that
an army numbering 10000 industrial
workers would mobilize at San Fran
cisco, Sacramento and Stockton and
