INEFFECTIVE REPAIRS

Attention should De given to pune
lures, cuts, snags and other injuries
even though they may appear to be
trivial. Small injuries of seeming un.
Importance often grow into serious
consequences. II is advisable to have
the repairs made by an experienced
workman. As usual thing. the ANA
teur does not reinforce the injury,
when needed. and is apt to vulcanize
repair, especially the rubber, too long
this not only makes IT hard and brit.
tie but burns the materials around the
repair.
Some repair men are not as expert
as they should be In the handling Of
rubber and fabric. Pieces OF fabric
OF different sizes placed inside of the
tire, regardless of the weave OF
threads, will wrinkle, separate and not
afford any appreciable strength or re.
Enforcement. All fabrics, for every
style of repair should be cut on bias
in the same manner that the fabric
is cut for the original construction Of
tires. Repairs that are hard and
bulge are generally a result of cutting
the fabric straight with the roll, l. e.,
lengthgise and with the warp.
Understanding the heat or temper,
AZURE for vulcanizing and the use of
minerals suitable for the style of re-
pair to be made are very necessary
to good results.
Cure-cut is special rubber for re.
pairing minor cuts and snags. 1t is
self yulcanizing and does not require
equipment or the application of heat
Quick repairs are possible without any

AMERICAN BUSINESS MEN
M0T0RIZE TRANSPORTATION

The rapidity with which American
businessmen everywhere are motor
izing their transportation systems is
well indicated by the tremendous
volume of truck sales made by the
Packard Motor Car Company through
it's dealers during January, 1917.
More than two millions of dollars,
$2,262, 500, to be exact, was invested
in trucks made by this company in the
first month of this year." said r. E.
Chamberlain, Packard truck sales
manager. Never before has this rec
ord been equaled or even approached
in the history Of the truck industry.
The figures quoted represent the
value of Packard trucks for the use
of. American businessmen only-no
foreign orders, samples or demonstra-
tors are included. Also every dollar
was for chassis only, most buyers hav-
ing bodies built by, outside firms.
This unpsecedfnt Endorsement OF
Packards CAME. from many lines of
business and from all sections of the
country, the major sales made in New
York, Chicago, Boston. Cleveland, De
troit, Pittsburg and Philadelphia Sub.
stantial gains also were noted in Min
neapolis, Portland, San Francisco,
New Orleans, Cincinnati, Rochester,
st. Louis and many other cities. 1--
Among the nationally known buy
ers were Swift & Company, Armour &
Company, Liquid Carbonic Company,
Chicago Telephone Company, Stand.
ard Oil Company, Anheuser-Busch
Brewing Company, New England Gas
& Coke Co., Edison Electric Com.
pany, Independent Oil Company. One
company alone bought 131 Packards."

QQlll)A'S BONUS
70 FARM lJ\BORERS
Offering 160 Acres to Farm
Hands.

Canada today. with the great T.
nand that Is made upon 1t for food
stuffs. finds itself almost In the throes
Of labor famine. A novel means Of
solving the problem has been evolved
BY the Canadian Government at Ottawa
on Wednesday last, when 1t was de-
cded to practically bonus every farm.
hand going to Canada. by giving him
100 acres free as q homestead. and to
allow the time he would be working out
for. the good wages offered. to count AZ
residence duties on the homestead.
Western Canada has been a big pro-
ducer Of grain and 1t Is estimated that
there IL q shortage Of over thirty thou
sand men, necessary to produce an av-
erage crop In 1917. This shortage has
been caused by SO many young men
having left the farms to 60 to war. and
1t is essential to make an unprecedent-
ed offer of this kind, to I'LL their places
on the land at once.
1t has been required In the past to
do three years. duties on hOmesteads
to get title, but an additional induce
ment has been offered by practically
reducing this term to two years. A.
explained by an official Of the Canadi-
an Government. Canada's need for
farm laborers is intense, and excep-
tional inducements are being offered
to get the needed farm workers at
once. 4 farmland will make his en-.
try for one Of the 160-acre farms, sat.

ply as residence on the land filed fol-.

Big Increase In OIL Inspection.

During 1915 and 1916 James Duce,
state oil inspector, inspected 45,867,-
COS gallons of gasoline and refined oil
as compared with 29,250.4s1 gallons
for the two preceding years. These
give some idea of the expansion of
the automobile industry In Colorado
They were given in report submitted
to Governor Gunter by the state oil
inspector. The revenues from inspec-
ton increased from $29,254 during the
first biennial period to s45,867 in the
last two years. The expenses for the
last two years were $15.293, leaving
a balance to the state Of $30.537. The
consumption OF gasoline in 1916 was
19,253,00O gallons, an increase of Sc
per cent over 1915. The kerosene con-
sumed last year was 5.518,000 gallons
against 5,994,O00 gallons in 1915. The
production of crude oil in the state
during the last two years was 16,G05,-
900 gallons in the Florence field and
$4,000 gallons in the Boulder field.

Tho Scale on q Map.

Distance on map is measured by
its scale" by laying a rule on gov
efnment map and ascertaining the
number Of inches between two points
the number OF miles between them can
readily be calculated. Nearly all maps
are drawn TO scale representing one,
two, three or more miles to the inch,
as the inch Is the common unit of meas
urement in the United States by which
the eye Is accustomed to judge dis.
tances on paper.
A scale Of 800, used in the well
known United States geological survey
typographical maps, denotes that one
inch on the map represents G2,oOO
inches on the ground, which is the ap-
proximate nImlAr Of inches in IL mile.
Therefore the scale is, almost exactly,
one inch to one mile. A scale of
1:125,00O Is approximately two miles to
one inch, ana scale of 1:1,OOO,OOO rep
resents siX.een miles to one inch.

Voice of tho Tiaer.

The tiger may be "shod with silence
but he has voice that is terrifying.
1t is said the voice of the tiger, Won
derful thing in its way, is not only the
most mounful, but the most terrifying
of jungle sounds, aud that it is Il power
full aid to him in his hunting, The ma
tives believe the deer, hearing the
tigers voice and unable from the re-
verberating nature of the sound to To-
cate the position of the enemy, stands
still and so gives him the chance of
stalking them. SpurtsmCl hold there is
probably some truth in this, for unless
one is following the tiger and has seen
him it almost is Impossible from the
sound alone to tell with any certainty
where he is.

Monday
TEACHING DISCUSSED
BY TWO LECTURERS
Dean J. V. McMillen And
Miss Mary F. Schaeffer Are
The Weeks Speakers

| The 18th annual session of the Knox
County Teachers institute was open
ed Monday morning by X. l.. Jones,
president of the association
The speakers for the week are Jes-
SO V. Mcmillan, dean of Marietta col
lege, and Miss Mary Frances Schaef-
fer, who is director of the Morrow
County Normal school at Germantown.
The musical part of the program is in
charge of r. A. Chubb.
Prof Hemer conducted the devotion
then spoke on "The Function of the
Teacher He said that teacher
should never ask children to do things
to which she herself would not like
to be subjected. She should be ready
to seize all opportunities for growth
and not be content with the old ways
of doing her work, but always try to
find new and better methods.
The speaker said that teacher is,
or should be, a transmitter of know
ledge and culture to the child, an inter
prefer of life and an inspirer who
can lead the boy to do something that
he otherwise would not do.
Miss Schacffcr's talk was on Some
New Types of Schools" She began by
comparing the old schools with the
ones Of today and showed that the
child is becoming more and more the
center of the modern school with the
work of the school adapted to his in
terests and capabilities. In contrast
to this Is the fact that in the old
schools the child was expected to
adapt himself to the work.
She mentioned a number of the more
modern schools In our country and
told how the work is done through the
medium of play, stories, observation
and handwork, thus appealing to tho
natural instincts and interests of the
child.
