Avoid Overlooking.

Many motor truck owners have the
idea that there is no limit to the abil-
ity of a solid tire to bear loads, and
SO pile their cars high with cargo"
without any regard for their tires.
Solid tires, however, are as sensitive
TO overlooking as pneumatics, and the
head of the motor tire department of
q large company sounds a warning of
that tire abuse. The immediate re-
suit of overlooking solid tire" he
says, SIS the appearance of bulge,
called a traction wave in the rubber
just in front of the point of contact
between tire and street This wave
with the enormous weight back OF 1t,
works through to the very base of the
tire No tires are made of pure rub
Der. The gum must be compounded
with chemicals TO give the desired
wear-resisting qualities. The traction
wave lessons the cohesive power of
the compound and if not guarded
against, eventually will tear the tire
away from the steel rim. Not only
does the wave ruin the tire, but it also
affects the truck as though it were go
ing up hill, involving 3 constant loss of
power"

KILLING THE POULTRY LICE
Hiding Places for Vermin in Nests
and Houses Should Be Cleaned
Out-Recipe for Powder.

One of the best ways to fight lice
on poultry is to keep the nests and
roosts clear Of hiding places for them.
Thus it is wise to have all the build
ings just as simple as possible. FIRE.
quently, however, lice will bother no
matter how well the place is kept
cleaned up, and it is necessary to dust
the birds with powder. Here is a
good insect powder used at the New
York experiment station:
Mix three parts of gasoline with
one part of crude carbolic acid of 95
per cent strength-one part of cresol
will do, if the acid is not available
and gradually add, with stirring,
enough plaster of paris to make, when
the liquid is uniformly mixed a dry,
pinkish-brown powder having fairly
strong carbolic odor and rather less
pronounced gasoline odor. AS a gen.
eral rule, it takes about four quarts of
plaster of paris to one quart of the
liquid.
In using this powder on the birds,
remember that the eggs are not killed
by one busting, and as these probably
are present at the time of the appli-
cation, more than one busting, should
be given. Repeat the applications
once or twice, at intervals of from
four days to a week.
For a spray to be applied to nests
and roosting places to. kill the insects,
mix three parts of kerosene to one
@c L. asI &c
cent. strength. Stir this mixture be-
fore it is used. It also may be used
as a paint as well as spray.

1.-The farmer has, however. become
more or less imbued with the spirit
of commercialism-wit the idea Of
farming solely for money. He raises
big crops of corn, oats or feeds many
cattle to sell. And he sells them at
the other fellows prices, hurries them
on a glutted market and then turns
around and buys many things that he
could have easily produced on his own
farm, at the other fellows prices. In
this way he puts himself in the en-
emy's hands twice-once when he
sells and once when he buys.
'It seems to me that the first thing
you should do is to surround yourself
in farm homes with everything that
will be conductive to your comfort and
welfare.
Produce first the things you need,
be it fruits, vegetables or meat; then
after you have fortified yourself on
your farm fort, let the other fellow
have any surplus, If he will pay your
price for it.
You can solve the problem your.
self in the simplest way imaginable
Special meetings, 1ong-winded reso-
lutions and profound magazine arti-
cles are of no avail"

Broken piston rings will attract at

by an excessive amount of oil in the
combustion chamber and on the spark

When you can't get gasoline use sui
phuric ether and kerosene. One pound
of the sulphuric ether to five gallons
of kerosene will make mixture that
will cause the engine to run. The
ether ought not to cost more than so

Keep dish of equal parts of oys-

pigeons can help themselves.
Watch the naples and keep them
clean. Use plenty of soap and hot

Squads should be in prime condition

Dispose of them as near this period

The duck house should have an

Pigeons keeping is remunerative and

like the work, which is one of the first
requisites of success.

New arrivals in the pigeon loft
should be well busted with insect

(By W. E. VAPLON, Poultryman Colo

1t is not too early to select the hens
you intend using next season as breed
ers. 1t will be too late about the time
you are ready to set the first eggs if
raising early and productive stock is
your object, Then you will not know
which pullets matured quickly and
laid early and persistently, nor the
hens that hurried through the mott
and came back to business quickly;
now is the time to select these.
Visit the henhouse occasionally and
band the pullets found to be laying;
you will soon learn to know those

Cause of Roup.

1t is a noted fact that where roup
has become epidemic among fowls
they were crowded in tightly built
houses when the weather was very
cold and these houses allowed to re-
main closed all the next day. This
creates moisture which generates
danlpness and the house becomes
va,llt.
