Some Good Hints on Care Of Tires
Farmer Writes Advice AID General Answer Given With
Ideas On How to Save Tire Cost.

ION one side by driving in street car
tracks.
Driving in ruts grinds the rubber off
the side. walls where it is necessarily
thin, allowing water and grit to work
into the fabric which will soon cause
a casing te be beyond repair.
If in an emergency you. must use
chains, be sure there is play enough
/ to allow the chains to slide around the
tires SO as to equally distribute the
strair.
Wet Rubber Susceptible.
| Although rubber does not cut easily
when dry it : very susceptible to cuts
when wet.
Don't ignore cuts. BY allowing water
and grit to enter will eventually de-
yelop into sand blisters or mud boils
and separate the tread from the car
cass. Small cuts may be repaired with
Heal-a-Cut, but permanent repairs
should be made on large cuts by cul-
canizing as soon as possible.
A ,blow-o out is frequently caused
either by stone or other sharp object
rupturing the fabric of casing.
Bar Flat Tires.
| Don't ride home on a flat tire. It.
Expensive. If you have no spare case
and cannot make roadside repairs it is
far better to remove the tire and pro-
ceed on the bare rim. Even if the rim
is ruined, you have consolation Of
knowing new rim is far cheaper than
q new tire.
| When you travel on debated tire
both the casing and the tube are liter.
lally chewed between the eground and
tthe rim.
Apply sensitive brakes slowly. Quick
stops grind away treaeds.
When starting, don't try to get to
full speed in q few yards. Sudden ap-
plications Of power won't help to keep
down tire expense.
Adjust Brakes Properly.
SEQ thtat your brakes are properly
adjusted practically all of the terrific
bear the strain Of stopping and start
ing. When your brake. are improperly
adjusted practically all of the terrfir
strain of stopping comese on one wheel.
This will ruin the best of casings.
As the strain of the rear wheels
is greater than that on the front, it is
good plan to shift your castings, for
even though the rear tires are almost
worn out they should i've considerable
additional mileage on the front wheels.
As the right side Of easing is al
ways more worn than the left, due to
rubbing up against curbs, ETC., it is
also wise to change the tires on the
right wheels to the left and vice-versa.
Always carry some patches (either
the cemented with the necessary vul-
canizing cement or the none cement
type for making roadside repairs, also
an inner and outer sleeve for emer-
gencies.

IF YOU look at the ordinary country
road afte a shower, you will see
small puddles along the wheel ruts
and sometimes larger pools This wa
ter stays on the road surface because
it cannot drain away into the side
bitches. If you look closely You will
see said bitches which have grown up
with bushes and weeds in many cases,
and which are so far from The trav-
eled part of the road that the rain wa
ter does not drain into them That
part of the roadway where the wagons
travel S called the Travelled way. To
prevent water from standing on the
Travelled way, the road should be raised
in the center and should slope gently
into broad, shallow bitches. 1t is then
said to Eave crown. Ii it is ten feet
from the center of the road to the side
ditch, the surface at the side ditch,
the surface at the side ditch should be
at least ten inches lower than it is at
the center where the horses travel. The
road then has a ten-inch crown.
The rain that falls on road proper
ly crowned will run quickly to the side
and not soak into the surface or form
pools. Ihe side bitches for surface
water should run parallel to the right
Of way, and should be orcn at every
low point SO that the water can run out
of them into ncighboring brooks or
streams. If the bitches merely collect
the water from the roat surface and
it cannot run away, large roels will be
formed along the roadside, which viii
gradually soaA into the soil beneath
the road and make it so soft that the
wheels Of wagors will cut through the
road surface ana soon destroy it.
Surface Tat-r Trouble.
Sometimes water rams from land
along the road into the road, aad forms
little stream down the wheel tracks
in the middle, where the horses
travel. When driveways into farm,
yards are built across tn said bitches
they frequently form channels for wa
ter from the farm yard u run into the
road. The pipes under driveways be.
come filled with leaves or rubbish and
the water can no longer run away. Il
the driveways that stop the ditch water
were rebuilt SO that no pipes were neces-
sary and the ditch could be left open
much trouble from surf4ce water would
be stopped.

Don t forget new tire has ten

takes from ten to twenty days for a
easing to att. in its full dimensions, ac-
coriing to service. This means tina.
care should be given to initiation during
the first two weeks.
Air costs nothing, use plenty of it.
Use nothing but air to initiate tires,
gas, especially carbonic, Injuries tubes.
BE on the safe side and have your
tires more than large enough to carry
car and ell extras. You will receive
greater mileage mo easier riding quail
tiles in return for the slight cost of
oversize tires,
insufficient Initiation.
insufficient initiation and continual
overlooking destroys castings and tubes.
Remember that over loaded tires are
20 per cent more expensive to run and
5 per cent added to the weight of the
car adds is per cent 20 the wear on
tires
Be sure your front wheels run par.
allel to each other.
1t is possible for wheel7 out of aligl-
ment to completely grind the tread off
casing in the short space of so miles
Always have your wheels trued up
after an accident, no matter how slight
it will pay you.
husty Rims Hard
Rusty rims are hard on Tres. Keep
your rims clean.
| Rusty rims should be smoothed with
emery paper and painted with shellac
