CARE AND ATTENTION
 REQUIRED FOR TUBES
Owner Wants to Avoid lnconven-
 fence of Changing on Road.
When Small Cracks Can Be Observed in Rubber While Stretched, It ls- Indication That Tube Has
 Outlived Usefulness.

"How am 1 to know when an inner tube is done is a question I am ask ed repeatedly" declares q tire dealer.
 Tt is the natural inquiry of tire user who has several repairs made on his tubes and wishes to obtain the utmost mileage from themAyet wants to avoid the inconvenience of making a tire change on the road, due to tire trouble.
 'In these times when economy is the order of the day, tire user hold ing an old tube in his hand, can well afford to ponder u minute before cast ing it aside as through
 Tt is difficult sometimes to deter mine just when tube is unfit for further service. However, porosity in a tube usually indicates that it has attained its three score and ten. In this stage of use, very small cracks can be observed in the rubber if it is stretched and examined carefully The next development is splitting when the air pressure becomes too great for the tube to bear.
 
 If the rubber in a tube is live it may successfully bear as many patch es as beggar's coat But due care must be exercised in the vulcaniZa- tion of the patch to the tube, that too large q portion of the tube around the patch is not cured. If portions of the tube have been overcured in patch ing operations, disaster is sure to fol- low.
 T believe that the lack of proper care of the tube is responsible for most of the troubles tire users ex- perience. The observance of a few precautions would help wonderfully to eliminate these troubles.
 The absence of sufficient tale be- tween casing and tube allows the gen eration of heat which vulcanizes the tube to the fabric of the casing. Then when you attempt to remove it, it tears.
 Much tube splitting is occasioned by the slipping of the tube between the casing and the rim, which soon results in q 'pineh.' The remedy is careful applying.
 Tt seems to me that the whole problem of obtaining maximum tube mileage resolves itself into the sim pie matter of taking care of it prop erly."

Worlds problems are being solved by the motor truck, according to Will liam Fulton Melhuish, president of a large motor truck concern. Care ful gathering of statistics by MT Melhuish. consultations with authori- ties, have shown eonclusively that 50 per cent of the perishable products of the American farmers do not reach the market.
 Motor trucks will ultimately fill the bill and enable every farmer 10 get to the market 100 per cent of his produc- tion of perishable foods" said Mir Melhuish. As America promotes its road building efforts and improves the highways the farmers will see the light by millions and motor truck mak- CTS will never be able to meet the demand for their product.

FITTING NEW KEY TO SHAFT
Not Good Practice to Fit Larger Key to Shaft in Which keyway Is
 Badly Worn.

It is not always good practice to fit a larger key to a shaft in which the keyway is badly worn and has been cut to take the new key. The trouble is that it is sometimes necessary to remove so much metal that the shaft is seriously weakened. Any welding concern can fill in the old slot and then cut a new keyway.

who is in charge, said this morning.
I She said that 1t was impossible for
her to make tests for the different
cases with the supplies which she
had at the present time.
! For tho past month sne has been
making tests for tuberculosis, typhoid
and blood counts, but she has done
! It with supplies which she brought
from Iowa City with her. DR.. KEEL.
man said that the delay in getting
proper materials to work with here
is due partly to labor conditions and
to the congested traffic in transpor-
tation facilities and slowness Of ex-
press companies to deliver goods
when they are received.
How Public 10 Served.
DR.. Kelman Is anxious for people
to understand about the laboratory
and how it serves the public. The
city work consists of tests made for
tuberculosis, typhoid, and diphtheria
cases. It is done for the nominal
fee of Atty cents which just covers
cost Of the test. These tests are
made for anyone In the state, who Is
closer to this laboratory rnan the one
at Iowa City. At the state institu.
ton the work is done free OF charge.
but here 1t is necessary to ask the
small fee OF fifty cents.
The private work for the doctors
! is paid for according to the nature
of the work done. DR.. Kelman and
her assistant, /. B. Akerson, make
any tests for the doctors which are
required in the diagnosis OF case.
DR.. Kelman is still planning to
have a formal opening OF the labora
tory to which the pubirc will be In
ivited. just as soon as the equipment
finally arrives. There will be some
lout-of-town speakers here for that
occasion besides some local persons
who will assist on the program.
