Damn Insert Saves
Tires

Not alone do the springs
save the car, the passengers and
the mechanism from i'll effects,
bot by responsive action they
save the tires because If the
springs are stiff and inactive,
the blow which is sent into
them from the road is forced
upon the tires which are the sec
ond medium Of absorbing road
shocks. When the tire is OBJ
1iged to absorb such shocks as
are intended for the springs, 1t is
then that the tire is fractured
and greatly broken down. 1t is
SD h severe and unnoticed
punishment which tire receives
that results IN its short life.
When springs work properly,
the tires last much longer.

ALL STATES ARE
SHARING IN FEDER-
AL ROAD AID

Washington, Dec. 24.-All the states
of the Union have availed themselves
of the opportunity of participating IN
The benefits of the Federal Aid Road
Act, which appropriated s15,o00.0O0 for
the construction Of post roads and
SO. 900 for forest roads, according
to the report of the director Of the Of
fee of public roads and rural engineer
ing, United States Department of
Agriculture. That the passage of the
act has stimulated road building is
shown by the fact that in 1916, there
were approximately SAL ,000,090 of state
funds EXPENDED for all highway plr-
poses, and it is estimated that in the
calender year 1917, the aggregate ex-
penditures of State funds for this pur-
pose will be at least $50 900. 600. A num-
Der of the states have made specific
appropriations to meet federal aid

'SAVE FOOD--WATCH
WEATHER FORECASTS

Washington, Tee 24.-Immenso
losses of food products, occasioned by
freezing and other injurious weather
conditions, occur annually that may,
with proper precautions, be avoided
This is especially true of shipments by
rail during the winter season.. The
Weather Bureau issues forecasts daily
and special warnings as occasion de-
mands, giving information of expected
weather conditions, including frosts,
cold waves. high winds, and heavy
rains or SHOWS. During the winter
season, officials in charge of nearly all
weather bureau stations issue daily
what are known as shippers fore
casts" giving the minimum tempera-
ture expected to occur within a ship
ping radius of from "a to IS hours from
the station. These forecasts are pub
lished on postal cards, and will be
mailed to shippers on application to
the nearest weather bureau office
careful watch OF these forecasts and
warnings will often enable the shippers
10 avoid losses, either by expeditinG or
delaying shipments or taking extra pre-
cautions to protect goods from injury
More definite information as to eX-
rected conditions may be obtained by
calling up the weather bureau office.
No shipment Of considerable length
should be made without first ascertain
ing the expected conditions over the
route. The occasion demands the ut
most care to prevent losses of food not
only as a matter of self interest but
as a patriotic duty. Watch the Weather
