second was possibly through a know-

WAR CONDITIONS WILL

Big Rubber Manufacturers Advise
Motorists to Give Tires Every
Possible Care.

A threatened scarcity Of tires dur,

least have the effect of making the
motorist heed the advice of the large
tire manufacturers in the proper care
Of their tires
1--WE have never advised, from a sci.
fish point of view, that motorists give
their tires every care and attention" "
said Mr. w. o. Rutherford. general
sales manager of the b. f. Goodrich
Rubber Company "All of the vast
amount Of literature which we have Is.
sued on this subject has been done
with the idea of educating automobile
owners in the proper care of their
tires so that they might get the very
maximum of service from them. This
applies to all other tires as well as
Goodrich. The seriousness of this ad-
vice will be brought home to thOua-
ands of motorists during the present
year, for the approximate waste of $50
per car owner during the 1916 season
has been COnseryatiyely estimated q;
.S15O,O0000O for the entire country.
And all Of this has been due TO negIi-
gence of the car owner. The tire
manufacturers see hundreds of living
examples of this negligence every day.

this eXtrayagant waste cannot con

for the tire manufacturers to keep
pace with the production of new cars
and at the same time meet the de.
mands of the cars already in use. An
actual shortage in certain sizes ey-
lists at this time. Due to the alertnes,
OF a great many dealers it may be two
to three months before the consumer
feels this shortage but it must conc
and when it does, it is then that motor
car owners will be more impressed
with the idea OF giving their tires the
care they should have and thereby adj
much to the service they will give.
The average manufacturer is LOOKING
for all the business he can get, but
the problem of meeting the present
demands rather than anticipating
large increases IS the one that all
rubber companies are facing today

USES FOOT GEARS

For while It looked as If he was
up against it, because he only had
one arm with which TO shift gears
and steer the car, but man who had
been champion broad jumper was
not to be stopped by little thing like
that.
He had heard a great deal of talk
regarding the easy gear-shifting quail

to take a ride in one and find out for
himself just how easy they actually
were.

This feat of Mr. Heath's is an inno-

he uses this method continually-ev-

TO PRESERVE BEAUTY
OF MOTOR CAR TOP

The service and beauty of many a
motor car top, states the last tech
uical bulletin of the Haynes Automo-
bile Company, may be permanently
retained with only passing attention
by the owner to this part of the motor
car
The top is in greatest danger when
it is folded for spring and autumn
driving. Often the material is pincheI
by the bows or top fasteners, and the
fabric stretched out Of shape. This can
be avoided by care in lowering the
top. An occasional brushing. inside
and out, will keep the top in good con.
dition and prolong its life
The top may be washed with soap
and water to remove the accumulation
of dust and grease spots. Gasoline,
however, must never be employed for
cleaning the rubberized cloth. since it
dissolyes the waterproof preparation
