TO HAVIE: TIRE LAST
Precautions Owner Must Take
When Putting Car Away at
Seasons End.
KEEP IN COOL, DARK PLACE
Best to Wrap Them In Clean Cloth or
Paper--Mild, Even Temperature Is
mportant-WiII Add Many
Miles to the Life
of Tires.

The head of the service department
of prominent tire company suggests
the following precautions to auto own
ers:
When you are through with your car
for the season, jack it up, remove the
tires from the rims and wash them
well with soap and water. Be sure to
remove all traces Of oil or grease.
The rims, too, should be sandpapered
to remove all traces Of rust accumula-
ton and painted with liquid graphite.
For the best protection the tires
should be wrapped in clean cloth or
paper and laid fiat in a cool, dark
place. If possible, store tires where
they will not be subjected to streams
of heat and cold. A temperature of
forty to sixty degrees is most favor
able for avoiding chemical action in
the rubber.
All the best tires are encased in
heavy paper at the factory, by spe-
cial wrapping machine, to protect them
from the deteriorating influence Of
light until such time as they are ready
for use.
A very efficient way is to wrap them
in strips of muslin or burlap about
three inches wide. Wind these strips
around the tire and have each wrap
lap over one inch
Inner tubes should be Debated,
placed in a box or wrapped in a clean
cloth or paper and laid fiat in a dark
place with no weight resting on them.
If they are left in the tubes they
should be partly inflated
Never let the weight of the car rest
on the tires when laying up for the
winter months. Jack it up and allow
the axles to rest on supports. The
constant weight on one part of the
tire will cause it to flatten at that
point, creasing the fabric and greatly
weakening it. If the tires are left
on the rims they should be thorough
ly cleaned and repaired and only
enough air pressure left in the tubes
to keep them well rounded. This pre-
vents them from wrinkling or crack
ing
While the car is not in use is an
opportune time to have necessary re-
pairs made on tires. 1t is the repair
shops slack season, and, as you are
in no hurry for the return of the tires,
they can devote all the time neces-
sary for your job and do it right.
Examine tires well and have all
cuts in the tread extending through to
the fabric repaired.
By following these suggestions you
can add many miles to the life of
your tires.

A Trauic Coincidence,

In 1865 a German predicted that he
would be a victim of a war that would
take place in 1866. The war occurred,
but did not affect him. One day forty
two years later he was laughing at his
old time prophecy and boasting of his
good health. In his happy mood he
bought an old cottage from a friend
and straightway went to inspect it. In
the garden there was quantity of old
iron and among it a shell dating from
1866. He picked it up and was exam
lining it when it exploded, and he was
killed on the spot. The prophecy had
come true.

take all the money for the trip, and
after you return, if you have saved
enough out Of the 500. you may use
it for whatever you like. AS for your
! going alone, we can arrange that Mr..
Burns tells me that another boy is go
/ ing from another state out this way.
and you can join him"
So it was arranged. and week later
Sam and the other boy who had won
state prize set out on their visit to the
capital of the United States.
They were both wanting to save as
much money as possible. so they didn't
ride in the Pullman or take their meals
on the train. When they got sleepy
they slept leaning back in their seats,
and when they got hungry they bought
sandwiches for 10 cents each. When
they arrived in Washington they had
not spent more than 81 each above
railroad fare.
1t would take long time to tell all
about Sans visit to the capital. But
it was by far the most delightful and
instructive visit he had ever made. He
and his comrade were met by a pro
fessor from the agricultural depart
ment, and soon afterward they were
introduced to nine other boys who had
just arrived. These boys were WIN
ners of state prizes also, each one be-
ing the best corn raiser in his state.
First they were taken 10 see the sec.
rotary of agriculture; then in a body
they visited the president and after
ward were shown all the wonderful
sights Of the capital. They visited con
Eress and Mount Vernon. the home OF
Washington and all the vast buildings
of the departments and the Congress
sional library and the ZOO. where they
saw all kinds of animals, and the bo-
tanical gardens. where Sam was bewil- !
dered and fascinated with the thou
sands of beautiful and strange plants.
When Sam returned home he had $40 |
left out of the 500. With this be could |
buy a pony for Florence's Christmas |

had made from the crops. As for his I

Joy a years vacation after being en-
gagged in missionary work in Argent
ma, South America, for about six
years, is giving the people of this
country some first-hand information
about the way the gospel is received
in South America and the big oppor-
Etunities for missionary work.
Rev. MI. Justice returned last week
from the central part of North Caro-

preaching, talking and delivering adj
dresses regarding the missionary
work. Since returning from the mis-
sion field he has delivered ffty-four
sermons and he continues to. talk, for
the people are glad of an opportunity
to hear more of the work in which he
has been engaged.
He delivered two sermons at the
Carolina Baptist association Last week.
He occupied the pulpit of the First

West could raise cattle and sheep
cheaper than they could, so they
sold their herds and focks and
bought cattle and sheep to feed or
sold their grain. Elevators sprang
up at many railroad stations. In
recent years there has been some
complaint. Feeder cattle and
sheep cost so much that the BUSH
ness of finishing them is risky. The
land does not yield such crops as
it used to when father farmed it.
This county is not held up as a
horrible example. livestock went
out because other sections could
produce it cheaper, a natural and
perhaps a good business policy
then. But isn't it time for this
county and others like it to con
slider once more the question OF
raising things that go on four legs

HOW ONE FARMER GOT
HIS BUTTER CUSTOMERS

According to the Farm and
Fireside, of Springfield, Ohio, a
butter producer in Mount Jack
son, Virginia, allowed his name to
be quoted on the Washington, ID
c., Food Products Bulletin which
the post Office authorities of that
city issue, and within a few days
had received three inquiries from
housewives for prices. Following
is a brief extract from the account
of how he handles his business:
Immediately he replied to the
inquiries, quoting a price of q
cents the pound for butter-tha
customer to pay the postage. This
in spite of the fact that he knew
several of the fancy groceries OF
the national capital were asking
38 cents a pound. He received a
few trial orders, packed the but
ter neatly, and shipped it prompt
ly back. A worth while trade
grew up. He received orders for
so pounds in a single week, and OF
course followed his customers up
with offers of other kinds of fresh
produce. A prominent Southern
hotel added it's patronage to the
Washington housewives-and the
produced found to his surprise
one week that he had so many or
ders that he would have to buy
cream from his neighbors to salts
fly the demand.
SAT this point he might have
fallen down if he had not taken
thought. But he did. He ex-
amined every quart of bought
cream with a careful scrutiny, and
turned back a good deal that was
not up to. the mark.
"tOf the hundreds of pounds OF
butter that / sold,' he wrote the
postmaster at Washington, CT
have never had a dissatisfied Gus
toner. I kept the bars of high
quality up"
