The French and British striking Oil the S0mme front have stormed Iaarly three miles Of German trench as. At some pl2ces they have driven L. . deGth of 300 t. 500 yards The most important gains were made by the British and French troops striking nCrth frcm the point where the allied lines .meet. Paris reports that Mau- rep2s and Clery, two of the most i'm

South of the Somme the French stormed German trenches over length of about three quarters e 2 mile driving forward in a southerly direction from Belloy-eH- | SaHterre. Palis reports that a COZ siderable number of prisoners WIS taken in these operations.
 For the first time in many days no important action is reported from the Russian front and the same dear Il of news prevails in regard to the Italian operations. The most intresting item of news regarding the Italian advance against Priest is contained in a news dispatch from Milan. which says that German troops are to be employed in the defense of the b'g Austrian port II corrCbOrated. this means that Italy and Germany will at last enter an act i've S ate of warfare

PROPER TIRE INITIATION
risk Rubber Company Expert Tell.
How Proper Pressure Gun
Rc Obtained.

About three out of every four tires
that pass on TO the scrap heap are
preinaturely aud ncedlessly worn out
through untIvfiiiiia ion. says Fisk
Rubber Company expert. In an un-
Terminated condition the tire is more
susceptible To cuts and bruises; rim
cuts and fabric blow-outs develop be-
cause of tho tremendous number of
different positions the tire assumes,
which tend To create internal heat and
dcS troy adhesive qualities OF the rub
berized fabric
The motorist who is careful as to
the air pressure will surely obtain
large tire mileage at small cost.
At the best, the tire IS only con-
taiuer of air on which the car rolls
Tn" amount OF air necessary TO carry
Will depend absolutely upon the amount
OF work that is to be done, and The
load carried.
The motorist should determine the
load for each tire and regulate his
air pressure so as TO carry that load
without injury TO The tire. To do this,
weight front and rear Of loaded car
separately, and divide by two which
will give the weight as carried on each
viii eel
Now that the weight OF load as car
ricl 10y each wheel is known, deter
mine the air pressure By using the fac
tor given opposite tire size 10 divide
the amount Of the load. the result be.
ing tho pressure required 3-iuCh tire,
divide weight OF load by s; 3l-2-inch
tire. by 10: 4inch tire. by IL; Alp
inch tire by IA: 5-inch tire, by IL;
l Pinch tire by 49,.
Example: on a +inch tire YOU find
the load to he 720 pounds. Refer 10
above table and note that on q 4-inch
tire - is the factor; 12n pounds di-
vidcd by l. equals 60. therefore i'm
nate the tire TO 80 pounds air pressure.
AS the load carricd by tho front tires
is usually less than on the rear, hy
using the method as suggested, it win
lie determined that less air pressure
is needed. -
The ideal load for the best all-aroriud
results under average conditions is as
follows: %-inch tires. 100 pounds: 3D..

view of the extraordinary difficulties
Of Mount Hood, a favoritc of the devo-

beyond anything that was considered
possible by those who understood the
the failure Of others who had made
similar attempts.
