Valve Aids Tire Safety.

An automobile tire valve which acts as a safety valve has been patented. The purpose of the invention Is to relieve a tire automatically of ex- cessive pressure caused by weather conditions or high speed. This valve is in reality an especially designed cap which fits on any standard tire valve stem in place of the ordinary dust cap.
 A rubber gasket is used to make the connection air tight. The valve can be set for any desired pressure. and when changing conditions increase the tire pressure to the point designated. a sufficient quantity of air will be released automatically to bring the pressure down.
 The adjustment can take place while the car Is running. The device by Its operation tends to prolong the life of a tire and to prevent accidents resulting from blowouts which occur while running at high speed.

Anti-Giare Law Drawn.

The features they want incorporated in an anti-glare automobile headlight law for New York state have been agreed upon by the State Federation of Automobile clubs and the State Au. tomobile association. It Is expected that the next legislature will adopt the measure, the principal difficulty here tofore having been to get parties in- terested to agree. The features aIe similar to those of the Massachusetts law and require that the direct rays from an automobile headlight shall not travel at a greater height than 42 inches above the ground at a distance of 100 feet. The New York measure has been drawn to agree with the anti. glare regulations in other states.

Lock to Prevent Car Thefts.

With a new lock the mixture of gas and air is cut off as 1t leaves the carburetor and enters the intake man. fold. At the same time the ignition circuit is broken, a simple movement of c switch accomplishing both results. In other words. you cannot stop the engine without locking the car. Even If a thief were to go to the trouble of saving through the steel housing of the flexible shaft which connects the lock head with the intake manifold attachment, he would be no better off. as In this event the gate which shuts of the mixture becomes perma- nently closed until the entire locking mechanism Is removed.

HINTS FOR DRIVERS
We'll Considered Remarks That Are Worthy of Most Care-
 full Attention.
KNOW AND OBEY THE LAWS
Autoist Who Is Not Familiar With Traffic Regulations Is a Nuisance on the Road-Proper Regard for Rights of Others
 Essential.

4 knowledge of the traffic regula- tions in your nearest market town may save accidents and embarrassing tines. As the number of motor cars are increasing in farming communities 1t becomes necessary for every driver to obey the laws to insure his own safety as well as to protect the lives of others. writes R. G. Kirby in Mich igan Farmer.
 Two miles from our farm an expen- sive touring car spent two days in a ditch 20 feet deep. It did not get there because of careful driving and observance of the road rights of oth- CTS. Another car skidded off the road and broke an axle and no one blamed slow, sensible driving for that acci- dent. Probably the roads of this state are not modelled after the 1ndianap- oils speedway and it is too bad that many fools may have to die before finding 1t out.
 Heavily loaded milk wagons and hay wagons deserve some consideration from the motorist. Often the horses
  side of the road to give passing room and as farm products must be market ed, a little judgment on the part of some drivers is doubtlessly appreciat- ed by the farmers.
 There Is a state law requiring dim mers on automobile headlights and aft CT stopping by the road in narrow places on many occasions to wait for the dinners to act, l am Inclined to think that the law needs some rigid enforcement in some communities. Some drivers refuse to dim their lights until nearly parallel with 6 passing car and in that way serious accidents may occur.
 When passing another machine 1t is no reflection on your efficiency as a driver If you slow down and allow the other car plenty of room. This is es- pecialiy necessary at night when there are deep ditches on each side of the road and careless steering may result fatally.
 Steam cars and interurbans demand a wholesome respect from the motor- ist. They travel many feet per second and 1t is difficult to calculate how fast they are coming so 1t pays to wait by the track and only pass when the way Is safe.
 A loud horn is an asset to a motor ist in an emergency such as warning children who are playing in the road, but it can be abused. Don't drive rp behind horses and frighten them, or delight in producing shocks on your neighbours nerves. A moderate pres sure on the horn will usually be effec- tive and will not disgust the passing driver.

Repairs Won't Stick.

Trouble is often experienced in get ting the tread to stick on small re- pairs. This might be due to any one of several reasons. the most common of which is applying cement over wet fab. ric. The moisture in the fabric, even if very slight, will blow the tread loose from he fabric. Another com mon cause for loose treads is the fail. ure to roughen up the old carcass sui. ficiently. In this case the cement will not hold properly and after a few miles of running the repair will sep. arate. It Is also well to make sure that proper pressure Is being applied to the repair wher 1t Is cuztrg.
