suggested that provision be made at
this session for congress TO continue
and enlarge the work the government
has been doing for experimental roads
by making an appropriation OF SbO,~
600 for experimental post-roads and
an additional $50, 900 for roads across
forest and Indian reservations and
other federalized areas where such
links form parts Of established routes
OF travel. Senator Thomas gave his
hearty endorsement to the proposal.
II Is unnecessary to say that Senators
FAN and Carton of New Mexico are
favorable TO the plan.
DR.. Johnson in commenting upon
the situation said: at would seem
therefore that so simple and sensible
a proposition ought to meet the ap-
proval of congress- the president and
the country at large. To refuse to
provide for the continuance of the
work which the government has al
ready undertaken, and which has
been crowned with signal success the
building OF experimental post-roads
would seem very unwise, inasmuch as
tentative work is pointing the way
to the solution of the general prob
lem To provide for the extension OF
the work along the line indicated
seems reasonable, in view of the fact
that In many instances, not only
through routes of travel, and also
market roads lie across federalized
areas, not open to entry or coloniZa
ton"
Another fact to which DR.. Johnson
calls attention Is that even In Char
lotte, N. c., the couhty seat OF Neck
lenburg county, which was the county
cited at the Atlanta congress as typi-
cal OF the value OF the market roads,
the sentiment is very strong and in.

Things More Than Passing Interest Tusas Auto Enthusiasts

Before the tires are put back, they
should be thoroughly cleaned, ana
any rust carefully removed; a coat OF
shellac is also advised.
IL the tires are to remain on the
wheels for O considerable length OF
time, never let the weight OF the car
rest upon them. Jack up the whels
and leave about five pounds or air
i'm each tire. If the weight of the
car in left on the tires for a consider
able time the tires are apt to flatten
out from standing too long on one
spot and consequently the tire is
weakened at that point
