LESS AIR IN THE
BIGGER CASTINGS
One Tire Concern Reduces the Pounds
of Pressure Recommended for
Tires Five Inches and Over.

Of Pressure Recommended for
Tires Five Inches and Over.
Several changes are noted in the
table Of recommended tire pressures
issued by a tire and rubber company
for 1914. The recommended pressure
for six inch tires has been changed
from 20 to 100; for five and one half
inch tires, from 10 to 100; for five inch
tires, from 100 to 80. Considerable
scientific testing preceded this appar-
ent concession to lower initiation and
easier riding"
Tire makers recognize that the des-
truction Of an uEderinfIated tire IS
brought about by an excess OF fleXings
or bending. A soft tire has its side
walls bent almost together and re-
leased to normal position every time
the wheel turns over. This generates
heat and the bending itself breaks
down the tire fabric. A tire properly
inflated is not the victim Of as much
destructive fleXing in year as an IN
derlnflated tire may be In week
Then, too, an uuderinflated tire, strik-
ing a stone or street railway rail, may
have top and bottom brought together
in a blow hard enough to crush or
break the fabric at once. The smaller
the tire, the sharper the fleXing angle
and the shorter the distance between
top and bottom when blows are en-
COuulereQ
Careful investigation convinced that
In five inch tires and up, the angle
Of fleXing under ordinary initiation is
small enough to allow for a lower
prOpOrtiOnate air pressure than rec
commended for small tires. and the new
figures are included in the cOmpany's
latest tables. One experiment to il
lustrate the principle involved. is this:
Take a small wire three inches long.
and another six inches long Bend
ca ch in the middle to the same angle.
Then bring the ends of each wire an
inch closer together than at first and
then compare the sharpness OF the an
giles at the center.
Consider that the three inch wire is
three inch tire side wall, and the six
inch wire a six inch side wall, and the
reason why underinflatiOn destroys
. tires is made entirely clear

GOOD ROADS IN
GRANT COUNTY
Don Kedzie Recites some of the I'm
prOVements That Have Been Made
in the Past Few Years.

prOvements That Have Been Made
in the Past Few Years.
Don H. Kedzie. editor Of the Lords
burg Liberal, relieves himself of the
following relative to Grant county
roads:
When sheriff McGrath bought his
Iirst automobile, baby Buick, some
years ago he found it a hard road
between Lordsburg and Silver City, on
the old Travelled route by way of Gold
HILL The road was hard to negO-
tate, and very rough. The rough
places racked the car, and he, not
knowing how good a car he had, was
afraid it would rack to pieces. He
went out on voyages of discovery, and
finally found the road by the way of
Separ, Cow Springs and Whitewater,
and pronounced it much better than
the old road, and since then has been
travelling it exclusively, as has every
one else, on his recommendation. A
week or so ago he was over in his new
six Cylinder, powerful Buick
On going back he concluded to do
some more discovering and started
north, going to the west of Gold Hill,
and going into the mountains on the
old Wood Canyon road. passing Charlie
Miley's old place, and got to the top
of the divide in less than an hour.
He figured on getting to Silver City
in less than three hours. but he ran
into snow and the only thing he had
spring that he had been using for a
tire iron, and it was after night be-
fore he got to Silver City. but he
found it was a good road. If it had
rot been for the snow, and the snow
never lasts long in the Burros
Last week he concluded to have
some work done on the road and so
came over with bunch of prisoners
in his car showed them the road, and
told them what ought to be done.
There was no snow in the road, ana
they made good time, excepting that
they stopped several times 20 show
the men what to do. Saturday morn
ing he started from here with them
to work on the road. The road crosses
the valley on the old grade, and goes
into Silver city on the Leopold road.
The sheriff made the following log
Of the road when he came over: To
Oak Grove, 11.5 miles: to Morton,
White Signal, 1S.5 miles; to Curetons
\ ranch, 26 miles; to top of the divide,
29.5 miles; to Lordsburg, 47.5 miles,
which he made in three hours and fiji
teen minutes. He says the trip may
be made either way in less than three
hours Several times he had to go in
to the intermediate speed, but never
in the low. This IS a saving of PAS
miles over the Cow Springs route, and
more than an hour of time, and a bet
ter road for travelling.

It came to her not as toll but play She lived
in land OF fairies and giants and gnomes.
In explaining her system, Mrs. Stoner starts
out with the assumption that every child Is born
with distinctive tendency or talent and that this
will always bear fruit. If discovered and cult-
vated in babyhood. It is the mothers part to dis
this in infancy and to try to develop it just
much to keep its body clean and see that
it has the proper food The mothers obligation
begins before birth and imposes upon her the
duty Of keeping herself so healthy and serene
both mentally and physically. that the baby will
not have to start out with handcaps on its very
first day.
Not being able to sing, Mrs. Stoner chanted
the lines from Vrgil's Aeneid to put the baby to
sleep and taught the childs negro nurse to do
the same. She declares that the meter is very
soothing and that she has seen many another
child yield to the somnolent influence of "Arma
virumQue cano, Troiae Qu primus alb oris."
When Winifred was six weeks old her mother
began reciting selections from the English poets.
The baby's favortes seemed to be Tennysons
Crossing the Bar" and Macaulay's "Horatius at
the Bridge" BY the time Winifred was year
old she could repeat Crossing the Bar and
scan the first ten lines OF the Aeneid. The mother
invented a game in which she would roll ball
to the baby and say "Arma." Winifred would
roll II back and say "Virumque" and in this way
the Latin words and meter were fixed In the
babys memory.
From the very beginning the mother would
carry her baby about the house, point out chairs,
tables. etc, and pronounce their names carefully.
She found II was Just easy to teach the baby to
say train" to say "choo-choo car" and just as
easy TO teach her to say dog" to say "doggie."
She surrounded the baby with coored pictures.
To teach her colors Mrs. Stoner would take a box
of varousy tinted yarns She would play she
was Mother Red" and baby would be Mother
Green" and they would look into the yarn for
their children those OF green tnts, OF course, be-
ing the babies OF Mother Green"

until the child speedily came to know whether a

up and come down. She was never permitted TO

mother was not fincky about vigorous expressive
slang.

man would have been we'll content to
have John for a son-in-law without
asking any questions. He knew that
John was cold-shouldered by the King
ston aristocracy, that he was omitted
from invitations to the governors balls
and dinners. But he did not care. John
was good manager, and Haidee loved
him.
So, four years after Johns arrival,
they became engaged. The marriage
was to take place in months time.
Then IL was that something hap
pened.
John Charlton received an invitation
to the ball at the government house.
He stared incredulously at the en-
graved invitation note, for IL was the
same governor who had always cold
shouldered him. However, he went.
Perhaps il was because he wanted
Haidee to take her rightful place in
Jamaica society; perhaps it was mere
ly his longing to look upon the faces
OF his own kind again. John went,
and when he entered the ballroom and
saw the men of his rank, and the
women in evening dress, his heart
leaped in his breast. Hatdee suddenly
seemed like somebody very distant
and remote from him.
And the governor shook him by the
hand. Afterward John danced. He
danced with English girls. with the
bloom OF the moist English summer
still on their cheeks. And then the
governors secretary drew him aside.

man officially-"there will be some
more guests later in the evening. A

John assented. His thoughts were
back in his own country. and IN his
heart he saw the busy streets OF Lon

boyhood. the placid countryside and
smooth lawns OF his fathers home.
"The fact is," continued the secre-
tary. Il don't know II you have heard

body knew your address, and We were
asked to find and notify you. Your

John listened. apparently unmoved,
for his mind was still playing that
curious trick. and he was living over
the past with his father again. He re,

him when he was little boy, how they

FORGOT THE PAST
Ey JOHN ECcLES.

Copyright. 1914 by w. G. Chapman)
AT first John Charlton had eaten
out his heart in loneliness then, as
the weeks slipped into months. he
grew reconciled TO his fate. He could
never hope to return to England He
had been accused OF forging his fathers
name to a check.
His elder brother. the heir TO the
estate, was the culprit. His brothers
wife had come TO John and pleaded,
with tears in her eyes, that he assume
the guilt. Everybody would suspect
him, she said frankly, because of his
recklessness and improvidence. There
was a girl-Amy Nairn; she had looked
favorably on the young man, and he
had been wildly in love with her. But
then John Charlton was never able
to resist a woman's pleading. And
his sister-in-law had taken him at
weak moment.
The upshot was that John went into
exile. He had pleaded with Amy TO
share his lot, and she had laughed
first; then, when he told her that he
was accused OF forgery, her pretty
brows contracted and she had indig-
nantly dismissed him.
So John had settled down to farm
ing in Jamaica, with the small sum his
father gave him. John often fancied
the old baronet understood but, If he
diG. he gave no sign. He shook hands
with Jonn; and 30 they parted in
silence.
That was four years ago, and at first
Johns heart had overflowed with
anguish Time and again he had been
tempted to write * Amy, explaining
matters to her. But he refrained. And
at last he ceased to think of the past,
except in the desolate hours OF mid
night.
