TIMELY ADVICE ON
THE CARE OF TIRES
Winter Is a Severe Season on
Tires and Neglect VIII
Be Costly.

Much Ia written In newspapers ana
magazines about tho care Of tires and

not give their tires the care That n duc
them. William l.. Stevenson, manage
of the service department OF the Re-
public Rubber Company, youngstown
Ohio. who for nine years has made n
consistent study of tires and the damag-
ing elements that cause them to prema-
turclv wear ont. gives some good ana
timely advice ~ follows:
Tho proper care of tires at the diff
fcrent seasons Of the year will greatly
reduce the number Of tire changes on
the road. or all seasons, no doubt, win
ter IN the worst. and productive OF tho
most discomforting and rufled feelings.
The hugbcar OF winter driving Is tire
trouble. which is caused by water work

and cause irregular breaks in the fabric
and eventually blow out.

ter tire changes hy the roadside. Many
know that continuous overlooking greatly
wcakcns the tire. However. the frst
overload produces the strain. which has
weakened the tire for all time. often

care OF the rim It Is surprising. the

Within a very short time engineers
have learned a great deal from the aero
nautic type Of motor. which. as a rule,
Is subject TO far greater strain than the
automobile motor. due largely to the
fact that the aeroplane motor Ia forced
to run at high speed at all lime with
scarcely any shutting of or coasting. as
Is the case with the touring car. which
shuts down its motor speed when In
traffic or in turning corners and coast
ing hills. Indeed. the aviation motor has
been largely responsible for the develop

engines-eights and twelves-which are
now rapidly appearing on the market.
