Warm Weather Battery Hints.

With the pleasant days of summer
comes a tendency for every motor
car owner to overlook the necessary
care for certain parts of his car whlch
can't, be seen.
one of these parts is the storage
battery and because of the important
part it plays in starting, lighting and
ignition, too much emphasis cannot
be laid upon its care.
on this account the willard Stor-
age Battery company is instrucung
all of its $50 service stations to ad-
wise car owners throughout the coun-
try on the essential points of warm
weather attention to batteries. Prob
ably the most important of these is
water. During the summer storage
battery should receive pure distilled
water at intervals Of week or ten
days. This is necessary because of
the evaporation of the solution which
gives the battery its life. If this so
luton is allowed to leave a portion
of the battery plates exposed to the
air. these plates will deteriOrate and
the life of the battery will be greatly
shortened.
Another point to consider is the
hydrometer test to determine specific
gravity of the solution. This test
should always average 1880. If the
battery is allowed to go below this
gravity it will gradually run down
and refuse to turn over starting mo-
tor or operate the electric lights.
BY watching these two important
things any car owner may expect the
very best service from his storage bat
teries.

In stopping at the curb the car should
not be allowed to strike IL or the
ures 20 rub in Contact with il. A sud
den depression OF the tire at the point
where 1t meets the curb puts a tre-
mendous tension on the fabric. The
rubbing Of the casing against the curb
may bruise II and tear the narrower
portion Of the tread at the sides, thus
causing permanent injury.
continuous strain upon certain
parts OF the tire produces the same
results as como from the sudden
blows and extreme shocks, only by
slower action. For this reason a mo-
tor car should not be driven along the
rails of car tracks, as many drivers
are in the habit OF doing. The edge
OF the rail will press on the tire at
the same place all the way around
and after a while will spring the in
ner ply of the fabric. Speeding has
similar effects on tires Racing ma
chimes use up tires Of the highest
quality and obtain but a minimum
mileage from them. The effect of
fast driving is to wear the tires, In
some degree. more than the average
The advice proffered by the various
tire manufacturers for the lengthen-
ing OF the life of the tire may be
summed up as follows;
Careful Driving.
First-AVoid ruts as much as posi-
BILE They affect the side walls of the
tire; since the rubber at this place is
considerably thinner and less year re-
sisting than on tho tread, 1t will soon
be worn through the fabric. After
this happens the fabric Is exposed and
is likely to deteroirate very rapidly.
Second When brakes are applied
too suddenly and the wheels arc
locked tho car will often continue IN
motion, with the result that either one
or both of the rear wheels slide. Since
rubber is considerably softer and
moro yielding than tho road surface

Fourth-If you notice one OF the
front tires beginning to wear down

wheels measured up for proper align
ment Immediately.
II the two front wheels do not run
exactly parallel, one OF them is al
ways subject to a drag or a diagonal
grind which soon wears down the
tread excessively.
The Care of Tubes.
The principle thing to watch about
tubes is the application. Whenever
YOU insert a tube in casing be sure
that there are no wrinkles In IT, The
best way to do this is to initiate the
tube slightly so that all wrinkles will
be taken up before II Is put in the
casing.
There is always a certain amount OF
heat generated between the casing
land the tube. To take care OF this
heat it Is customary To apply light
coat Of tale to the tube before II Is
inserted into the tire. This coating OF
tale. however, should be light. Nhen-
ever It is becomes too thick 1t is det-
rimental to the tube.
The Care of Rims.
1t is a good idea to keep the rims
| OF the tires as free as possible IRON
all rust, because rust Will affect the
tube. To do this II is necessary once
| in about every six months To remove
the tires and tubes and to clean the
rims with n wire brush. After that
has been done it "a n good plan to coat
the rims with graphite. OF course
this means considerable work. How
ever, II is bound to help prolong the

Toledo, Ohio, Was the

c. r. Bosworth and Joseoh de

Worklng with a company of nearly
twenty thousand actors each one
going about his daily tasks without
posing was a new sort OF studio TO
them and one that proved fun of

This fact is apparent when one con-

The difference between the tire
mileage of different drivers depends
quite largely upon the care used to
avoid sharp substances in the road.
small, sharp -cornered stone will
often make break in the fabric and
a broken bottle will sometimes cut
large hole. Tire wear also increases
in a fourfold ratio compared with
speed. Almost any good make of tire
will run 5000 miles If used carefully.

Among the necessaries when tour
ing should be supply of tire valves
and caps. A slight leak in valve
will cause as much delay as a blow
out. A good valve is often hard to
obtain when on the road and con-
siderable annoyance can be avoided
by carrying these accessories. A valve
tap and die should also be added.
