"TsEo Your Tire" Sholrd 3e Ills So
gan If RE Wishes 10 Share in
Conserving Tires.

"Tukr your time is good motto
for the motoriSt these days if he wish
cS to do his share Of conserving tires.
More tires are worn out by careless
driving than one would at first think.
A car is started with a jerk by some
time-mad mOtoriSt and. zip, the tread
Is torn loose from the fabric and the
tread IS subjected to excess wear.
WhanE, he goes around the first cor
ner at Il terrific speed, and again the
fabric Is torn apart and the tread
comes in for its share of wear.
Tearing up to the next corner, he Is
compelled TO jam on his brakes to
avoid running into pedestrian or an
other motorist, and again the poor tires
suffer
All this could be avoided If the mo-
tOrist would take his time. A motoriSt
does not gain much time in starting or
stopping with jerk, but many of them
do it without realizing what an OK
pcnSe it is, and how unpatriotic il is
in these days of tire conservation.

ALL PUPILS IN LIES SCHOOL
Each Day Gives Opportunity to Learn
a New Lesson, Even Though
End Is Near.

We I'D not ask to be born and have
our names entered In the school II
rfe: but here we Nre-WiliinG or I'M
willing pupils. which is it? Are we
learning life's lessons chc"rfally, glad
". enthusiastically; or do we chafe and
fume and fret and worry? There are
so many lessons and life is so short.
Every day our wonder increases at
our Fathers never-failing goodness;
at the discovery Of new virtues and
rowers in some life where they have
long been dormant. or in some new
beauty of this wonderful world that
we had long viewed with unSeeing
eyes. We need hearing ears and see
Ing eyes If we would acquire knOwl-
edge IN the school Of life. We need to
open our hearts Godward every morn
ing and say, Lord make me teachable

My aged grandfather often said to
me, George, | learn something new

fresh page of life? Is It not half the
charm Of life to know that each dewy
morning is q door opening into Won
Qerful field where we have not vet
walked; where the flowers Of knowl-
edge bloom, and there are new tasks
awaiting us and new lessons to be-
learned ?-Eychange.

Feed Cows Leeume Hay.

In cooperation With the extension
department of Purdue university the
United States department of agricul-
ture last year made an investigation
of the cost Of producing milk in 16
dairy herds in Porter county, Ind. In
that study it was found that when
other conditions were the same the
dairymen who fed the largest quantity
Of clover, alfalfa, and other legume
hays used So per cent less grain with
out lessening the production of their
cows. That is, the dairymen who fed
legume hay obtained as much milk
from 90 pounds of grain as the others
obtained from 100 pounds of grain.
Such a saving Is certainly worth
while Patriotism demands increased
production; the high cost of living de-
mands economical production; both
those demands are met when all our
good cows are kept, and when their
milk flow is maintained ut low cost.

DEMANDS SKILL AND DARING
"Ground Flying" the Most Dangerous
Feat Which Air Fighters Are
Called Upon to Perform.

Ground flying" Is perhaps the most
exciting Of all the aerial tactics In
which the British airmeE are instruct.
ing their American pupils in northern
France. 1t demands Il high combina-
ton Of skill and daring, but It is a
game in which the British have during
the past year won Il marked superior
ity over the Germans.
The training Of ground flying" pi-
lots is particularly thorough, and In
cludes much necessary practice in
leaping hills, trees and telegraph poles,
etc, in n manner which promptly
leads the uniformed spec .ator to con-
denim the airman as Il reckless fool.
But failing this practice the pilot
would never acquire -" skill and con-
fldence necessary for this highly spe-
cialized type Of work. The machines
used are fast and difficult to fly, and
operating so close to the ground the
pilot knows that he has literally no
more margin for indecision or heSitat.

ATTRACTS BUYER
With But Little Thought and Care
One Can Keep Shine on EX-
terror of Car.
MUD ONE OF WORST ENEMIES
Great Care Necessary In Removing
Dirt From Polished Varnish-Ap-
ply Hose Literally, but Be
Careful in Rubbing.

Secondhand car dealers know that
they can take an old car and repaint
1t and secure considerably more for 1t
than they could if the car kept its
shabby appearance. They know that
the average car buyer VIII first eX-
anime the appearance Of the car, and
then aftprwurd ask how it runs This
is not because higher value is placed
upon exterior appearance than upon
mechanical excellence, but simply be-
cause owing to the psychology of the
buyer the car will never be tested for
its mechanical ability unless it first
attracts by IFS appearance.
Pride in Appearance.
A car owner is not genuine, dyed
in-the-wOOl fan unless he takes pride
in the appearance of his car. How to
keep the finish as long as possible and
how to restore it when it grows dim
through wear are two great points in
his mind The city man who keeps his
car in a garage generally has to de-
pend upon the garage washers to do
his work for him, and it must be said
that very often they are unskilled and
the result is that a new car will soon
look like an old one.
Another great harmer of car finishes
is the bad body polish. Very often
these will brighten i car temporarily
and then the surface becomes dul!
and it is difficult to restore it. On the
other hand, there are some very good
polishes on the market which do the
work well. Some of these place sort
of veneer over the paint and varnish
work, which really preserves the fin
ish admirably.
CoTorinq and Surface.
Before going into the methods for
the owner to pursue in keeping the
car in condition, it is necessary first
to obtain a glimpse into the makeup
Of the surface of car. There are in
reality two parts of the surface. First,
there is the color material which gives
the body its color and furnishes the
foundation Of the appearance; and
then, over the color there Is pro-
tecting armOr of varnish, which is
transparent, allowing the color to be
visible, but protecting it from wear.
The varnish is much harder than the
color, and if the varnish We're not over
the cOloring material it would soon
wear away.
When the paint is applied it is put
Oh in a great many coats, each one
being rubbed smooth before the next
que is put on. These coats will fire.
Quently number twenty or more on
high-class body Jobs before the varniSh
is placed on. The final coat of finish
ing varnish is hard, glasslike coat,
which allows the color to be seen
through it, but which in itself is
greater resiSter of wear.

PUTTING UP CAR FOR WINTER
Get Below 20 Degrees Above Zero
Clean Battery.

"When putting up the car for the
winter two courses are OPEN" says an
automobile service manager. THE car
can be stored where the temperature
never gets below 20 degrees above
zero, and if the battery is charged
properly there will be no damage. The
second one is to remove the battery
from the car, clean 1t carefully, and
titled water; then, while the plates are
still moist, seal the battery up tight,
and you can store it for at least a
year without hurting it's efficiency"

WARM WATER FOR RADIATORS
Great Care Should Be Exercised When
Filling After 1t Has Become Hot
in Winter.

Great care should be exercised In
not using too hot water in the auto
mobile radiator when filling it after
it has become cold. During the very
cold weather especially, if too hot wa
ter is put into the radiator the rapid
expansion of the metal is liable to
cause the joints to separate, thus Civ
ing much trouble with leaking. Use
warm water in which the hand may be
comfortably held.

Eeedina Racks for Sheep.

Combination hay and grain racks
are probably the most convenient for
feeding small lots of sheep. The open
end rack is suitable for use in barns
where feeding can be done by passing
directly from the feed alley to the
rack, thus cbvlating the difficulties
which follow from entering pens filled
with sheep. Some shepherds prefer a
rack with closed sides instead Of Stats;
such a rack requires that the hay
be eaten through an opening at the
bottom

depended upon. There is no efficient
automatic system of yentilating sheep
buildings, though some of the wind
battles" which have been devised for
poultry houses might be adapted.
WeII-Draned Floors.
Level and well-drained clay-surfaced
floors are satisfactory and economical.
Sheep pack the surface very firmly,
and if there is proper drainage the
only objection to this floor is that 1t
for alleys and feed rooms are neces-
Sary, but will seldom be called for in
the pens.
Arrangement of Building.
The main features to be provided In
the floor plan are minimum of waste
space, convenience and ease in feeding
and in cleaning the pens, and climIna-
ton of the need of moving or disturb
ing the sheep. Pen partitions should
be movable. BY using feed racks to
make divisions in the pen space the
size of the pens can be varied as
needed. ana in special cases the racks
can be removed to permit the use CT
the space for other stock.
Locating Sheep Buildings.
The site for permanent buildings for
sheep should first of all be dry and
well drained. Ample yard space that
is dry and sheltered should be avail
able adjacent to the main barn or shed.
A southern slope with sandy soil Is
especially satisfactory for this purpose.
On most farms 1t will be advantage
Gus to have the buildings and yards
easily reached from the regular pas
lures or from fields used to grow for
age crops for summer pasture. As the
flock requires attention many times
daily during part of the year, con-
venience of location in relation to the
farm dwelling and to other buildings
will effect an economy Of time in the
performance of routine labor.

BUY EWES IN FALL

Many farmers make a practice
of buying ewes In the fall, breed
ing them and selling the lambs
the following summer. Such
ewes can be carried through the
winter on wheat and rye fields
if not pastured too closely, or
on clover hay with some roots
and q little linseed meal. If
the clover hay is not available,
corn fodder may be used as
rCughage, in which case it
should always be supplemented
with bran or linseed meal.
Lambs should come early and
should be taught to eat as soon
as they are old enough. Give
lambs access to corn by prOyid-
ing q creep through which they
can go without allowing the
ewes to follow.
