IRON THE TIME that the patricians, during the
early building of Rome, had to go out and induce
the plebes to return to their abors down through all
the ages, Capital and Labor have been in constant
controversy to see which should have the best of it.
But neither was he then, nor has the farmer since
been, party to this controversy, for he is neither
patrician pZebe, neither capitalist nor aborer-
though perhaps he is BOTH
The farmer has always stuck to his job of keeping
the world going He has always been the constant
known quantity. He has always been the great sabil-
izer-and is today. You are not anxious about his
attitude toward anything, because you know always

that indescribable something called "atmosphere"
We know that it is sort of composite of all

atmosphere, is the why Farm Life is the fast

Good Tire Must Haze

There are two good reasons for the
steady increase in mileage guaran-
tees on tires states D. o. Snodgress,
manager Of the Snodgress Racine
tire company. 'The most common
is education OF car owners by tire
companies. Propaganda put out by

owners the extra miles that may be
secured with proper care The week
" checking up plan adopted by many
tire owners in connection with guar
antees is nothing more than an edu-
cational precaution. The tire dealer
corr ects carelessness in this manner
and adds 10 tire life.
Another phase is the Improvement
in processes by which tires are made.
The Racine Rubber company illus
trates this. Extra tests are made on
all materials before manufacture Is
begun Again many different tests
are made at various stages OF making

REMEMBER TIRE
HAS TWO PARTS
Pays Motorists To Give
Proper Attention To the
Tubes, States Carpenter.

1T takes a casing and a tube TO
make a tire" is the observation Of L
E Carpenter. local manager for the
Goodyear Tire and Rubber company
1T has become a common practice 10
refer to a casing as a tire. forgetting
that a tire is made up Of two parts
a casing and a tube. Thousands Of
persons refer daily to their tires
when they mean their 'cIsings-' So
good an authority as Noah Webster
tells US in his well known dictionary
that a tire is a flexible tube usually
Of rubber. inflated with air and pro-
tected by an outer covering. used on
motor cars to reduce vibration and
shock
You may have a casing which has S.
10. or even Is thousand miles OF wear
built into it. and succeeded in get
ting but half that number Of miles
from it Many motorists have had
this experience and have attributed
their troubles TO a poor casing when
the whole fault may have been in the
tube
You cannot expect a casing to hold
up IL it does not have proper support
from within, and this Is why / am en-
phasizing that both the casing and the
tube are the tire
Even If a tube leaks Just a little
Il permits the sidewalks Of the casing
to bend back and forth excessiV ely,
and the heat so created burns the life
out Of the rubber and the casing is
soon ruined
Some tubes are squeezed out OF a
machine and. Of course. they are more
easily made and therefore cheaper.
Flaws, sharp sand grains. pin holes
OF dangerous air pockets may go
nearly all the way through the tube
and not be seen Such a tube may
look good from the outside. but we
know that our heavy tourist tubes are
good all the way through.
Nowhere is a good tube appreciated
more than on the race track. The
big racing drivers, such as De Palma.
the Chevrolet brothers. Vail, Sarles,
Milton, Boyer, Durant, Hearne. Coop
er, Wilcox and others who use rae
ing cars, pay particular attention 10
their tubes used with their castings
No racing driver ever uses a repaired
casing or tube. They will risk their
lives only on the best that can be
had
NO users OF tires are better quail
fled 10 judge them than are these big
men Of the speedways. With them
a tire is casing and a tube and both
must be as nearly perfect as good ma
terials and skilled workmanship can
make them"

the seating capacity Of the 6,OOUO0U

Separation OF freight highways and

near future. according to George c
Diehl. chairman Of the good roads
boards Of the American Automobile
association
There will never be a time when
all roads are Of equal durability and
carrying capacity" said Mr. Diehl
Highways and railroads are anal
ogOus, in that they are both designed
TO carry traffic, and general rules
which have been developed through
scientific management Of railroads
apply as well, almost invariably. 10
highways. The heaviest locomotives
roads like the New York Central and
Pennsylvania and Union Pacific.
Their use over lighter constructed
railroads would ruin the roads in a
comparatively brief period
There must come a classification OF
highways. over class I the heaviest
motor trucks and trailers would be
permitted: each truck should have
large figures, couspicuously placed on
the sides to indicate the total weight
that II is. permitted TO carry: opera
tors and owners Of the trucks should
be prosecuted for using the heaviest
trucks on roads designed for lighter
traffic It would be comparatively
simple to enforce such provisions, as
there seems to be no defense Of the
proposition OF permitting one or two
heavy trucks to ruin an Investment OF
many thousands Of dollars on the
lighter constructed highways.
At road intersections the highway
capacity could be indicated. as the
highway department should, I be-
lieve, have q traffic department un-
