WASH GREASE OFF AUTO
TIRES WITH GASOLINE

Oil, when allowed to come in
contact with automobile tires, soft
ems the rubber and greatly reduces
its wearing qualities, is the asser-
ton made in bulletin No. 8, pub
lished recently by the engineering
extension department of Ames col
lege.
Many tires are seriously injured
by being allowed to stand in pud-
dies of oil, which has dripped from
the power plant of the car. When
ever a casing becomes covered
with oil it should be Immediately
washed with gasoline.
Whenever possible, freshly oiled
roads should be avoided. A few
miles on dusty road will general
ly remove most of the oil which
has been picked up on such strip
If any oil does remain, it should
be removed Immediately by wash
ing with gasoline. The use of one
of the many tire paints on the
market may afford some protec
ton from the Oil.

We have watched the progress

women's interests. and we see
that the General Federation has
become not only a powerful. but
a determining influence in the

with one preconcerted purpose,
unite in their efforts to do a
thing, something is sure to hap
pen. We saw this in the passage
of the pure food law. DR.. Wiley,
in his message of congratulation
to the General Federation. said,
THAT the passage of the bill
was due more to the effective
work of that organization than
any other" We might cite as
further evidence of acceptance
the passage of the Weeks Biz
for the preservation of forests,
the saving of Niagara from the
rapacity of commercial pirates,
the establishment of a "Child's
Bureau at Washington for the
conservation of child life, the in
vestigation of the conditions of
women and children in mines,
mills and manufactures. To the
Federated Women's Clubs of Cal
ifornia is due the passage of the
minimum work hour. They are
now working for a minimum
wage for women and girls, be-

improving the morals of the

be identified in such work as this,
to use our influence in urging
