More solid tires go to the scrap heap
prematurely because of overlooking
than for any other A good
solid tire is constructed to give its full
value in miles, and a quick and sure
way to cut down mileage Is to put
too heavy a load on the truck. A team
of horses may occasionally be called
on to carry a load which seems too
heavy for them and not be injured.
Mistake Of Owners.
Some truck owners think they can
call on their solid tires to carry an
o~ver-heavy load occasionally in the
same way, but in this they make q
mistake. When once a solid tire is
battered out because Of overlooking,
1t is ruined. The overlooking may oc-
cur the very first time the tire is used,
and instead of giving the thousands
of miles which a well constructed solid
should give, the tires usefulness IL
snniled at the outset

Many men of moderate means who
have bought motor trucks during the
war period and have gone into the
transportation business have had little
training or experience in truck oper-
alton and, because Of this fact, stand
In a position to incur heavy expenses
unnecessarily expenses which the
experienced truck owner would be sure
to avoid.
Business Attracts.
Attracted by the possibility of get
ting established in a paying business,
these men have invested in trucks
with the thought that they could
quickly acquire the knowledge neces-
a to a proper handling Of their ma
chimes.

SIX BANDITS ROB BANK
Obtain $4,000 in Cash and
Bonds at Minneapolis.
Good Description of Holdup Men Has
Been Secured by Police and
Dragnet Is Out.

Minneapolis, April 10. - Fortified
with good descriptions, the Minneapo
lis police are directing a search
throughout the Northwest for the six
bandits who held UP Silver Kolstad
cashier in the Peoples State bank, and
made their escape with more than So,
600 in cash and Liberty Bonds.
Mr.. Kolstad looked through the po
lice rogues' gallery and identified pho
tographs as resembling two of the
bandits, according to the police. Their
records show they were implicated in
several bank robberies throughout the
country.
The police have telegraphed serial
numbers of most of the Liberty Bonds
to every bank in Minnesota and to
the police and sheriffs in counties and
cities throughout this section of the
country. Descriptions of the six men
also were sent broadcast.
J. P. Ernster, president of the bank
completed a check on the loss. He
said the robbers obtained $3.50 worth
of Liberty Bonds owned by the bank
and about $1,000 cash. The envelopes
which they took containing Liberty
Bonds owned by bank patrons, prob
ably were valued at $4,000, Mr.. ErnsteT
said. The bandits left $4,000 in cash
on the street, when the satchel they
were carrying to a waiting automobile
broke. The bank carries $4,000 theft
insurance.

Agriculture Department Officials
Forecast Enormous Crop
of Wheat.
PRICE is GUARANTEED
Government Is Obligated to Pay DIFF
ference Between the Fixed Price
of 1926 Per BusheI and
World Market Figures.

Washington, April 10.-The depart
ment of agricultures forecast that the
nations winter wheat crop would total
So7,OO0,OOO bushels, he biggest crop
ever grown, aroused immediate specu.
lation as to the cost to the govern.
ment of such a yield.
Under the bill passed by congress,
the government is obligated to pay the
difference between the guaranteed
price Of 1926 bushel and the world
market price for every bushel of win
ter and spring wheat produced
The total value of the winter wheat
crop on the basis Of an S37,00O,00O-
bushel crop forecast would be $751;
$4,000. The spring wheat crop can
not be estimated at this time but de-
partment Of agriculture officials today
predicted it would range between 1885,
100000 and 300,000,000 bushels, which
would increase the total value of the
nations wheat crop to approximately
two and half billion dollars.
Refuse to Make Prediction.
The part of this two and half bill
lion dollars that the government must
pay to maintain the guaranteed price
was matter upon which officials here
declined to comment 1t was said that
the factors influencing the world mar
ket price were too numerous to make
any prediction. The Department of
Agriculture has no information as to
estimated wheat production in the
other Wheat-groWing countries.
Officials believe there will be a good
foreign demand for American wheat
which will take care of the nations
surplus and while the loss to the gov.
eminent through it's price guarantee
may run into the millions of dollars, it
simply will be taking money from one
pocket and putting it into another.
Officials believe the forecast indicates
farmers will be more prosperous and
possess greater potential buying power
than ever before. The enormous sums
farmers will receive for their wheat,
1t was said, should find it's way back
quickly into circulation, thus adding
to the general prosperity of the nation
Greatest Surplus in History.
The forecast indicated that America
will have a greater surplus than ever
before. The United States requires
for its own yearly consumption about
5.3 bushels of wheat for each person
With approximately 100000 peo-
pie in the United States and approx
mately 100000 bushels of wheat
which is necessary for feeding pur-
poses, the demands of this country
this year are estimated at more than
650,000,000 bushels.
