Automobile Clu) of
Southern CalifCrnia.

! Some new angles IN the Southern
! California auto theft situation have
! DEVELOPED recently, say officials of
| the Automobile Club of Southern Cali
folnia, which throw an illuminating
! light on the whereabouts of some 1l5
stolen cars which apparently have
! Just disappeared" forever.
This part Of the west coast has
been particularly unfortunate in hav-
ing been selected as the ''happy
hunting ground of motor car thieves
| from all over the country, because of
the great number of machines avail
able for their handiwork, but an of-
fectve method of curtailing their ac-
| Invites is being worked out by the
clubs theft bureau.
Small private garages are pointed
out as the most likely hiding places
If the "disapneared' cars. Thieves
rent q small garage in the rear of a
private residence and store stolen
car there until the furry of the chase
! for it's recovery has blown over then
they take it out and sell it. say the
authorities.
This is true throughout the south
ern part Of the state, it is claimed
from San Diego to San Luis Obispo
and to San Bernardino. Everv small
privately owned garage is potential
''cache" for a stolen car. Therefore
the owners of the garages in which
cars are stored by strangers for any
great length of time are asked t.
notify an Auto club branch office on
the theft bureau headquarters, so that
an investigation NAV be made.
Thieves NAV saw that they "are go
ing east and wish to store their can
for a month or two" and thus secure
the haven Of Il private garage. nc
forstaIl this, the automobile club has
prepared an elaborate filing system II
which the records of all cars stoler
are preserved and held for reference
THIS has been extended to include cars
stolen in other states.
That car dealers can also be OF {
material help in telephonlng IN IN
formation regarding machines Offered
them for sale to which attach any sus
picious circumstances.
The elimination of EboOze haunts'
after July ! will have material et
feet on auto stealing, say the authorl
ties, in two WAYS. In the first place
so many cars will not be stolen fol
"ioy riding" purposes to road houses
and outlying 'joints." In the SECOND
Mace, however MANY stolen cars have
been recovered at the self-sam'
"ioints" and tho thieves have Otter
been unprecedented in them. :.
SO far this year in Southern Cali
fornia there have been 8O1 automo
biles stolen. of which 691 have beel
recovered. leaving no "outstandlng.
That many Of these are cached in pr
waite garages throughout the sonther
part of the state is t. theory bein'
worked upon by the automobile clu'
theft bureau in the interest Of looa
motorists.

Ire campaign against soaps inju-
iiouS to fine paint and varnish sur
faces gees on with increasing volume
and force.
Auto makers and the paint and var
nish houses are q unit in determined
purpose to stop, once for all, the
Wanton destruction Of their best eff
forts in decorating, through use of
"sclid" SOAPS containing alkalies, al
cohol and other luster destroying in
gradients They realize more than
ever that the only way their reSpec-
business conserved and promoted is
to ban all soaps and polshes that kill
the brilliancv of paint and varnish.
On the ether hard, they are equally
strong ir their support Of a scicntifi-
cally prepared cleansing agent, which,
while removing all dirt and grease,
leaves the surfaces with their origi-
nal fine condition:
To these influential and organized
forces is now joined the vast army
of auto dealers. They are doublv
interested, and are evincing the heart
lest cooperation. In the first place,
the dealer is just as keen as the man
ufacturer to promote the lasting
qualities of car appearance; secondly,
as a handler of auto accessories,
which, of course, includes equipment
for car washing. he is not going to
encourage the use of ruinous soaps,
by acting as q mediwm for their sale.
Furthermore, he is no longer at the
mercy of makers cf old Fashioned
soaps because science has come to
the rescue with its perfecting influ-
ence and produced the harmless, eff
fectivc and economical article.
Thus the shrewd, enterprising and
conscientious dealer will protect the
public and help himself at the same
time. The public, also will protect
themselves by refusing the use OF
only that which is best and cheapest
In this connection it is interesting
10 note that the Woodtite Lahorato-
reS, of Modesto, Calofirnia, have mel
the public, the auto makers, dealers
! and RANT and varnish people more
than half way. by evolving and mar
kcting kaufman Autowash, which
makes car washing, at either the
wash racks or at home, rs near per

more economical than any of the
old-faahioned products.

EXAMINE WHEELS
ON YOUR CAR
Sound Advice for All Automobile
Owners

The average autoiSt seems to al
most willfully neglest the wheels OF
his car. This means rapid deprecla-
ton of the value of the machine and
proportionate loss to the owner, be-
sides much annoyance, expense, neon
venience and possible danger. All OF
this is unnecessary and easily avoid
able by frequent, close inspection OF
wheels and timelv remedy.
Wheels are the very foundation Of
a car. Thier neglect causes more
than 90 per cent of all accidents not
directly attributable to careless driv-
ing. 1t matters not row or of what
wheels are made Any and all must
wear and weaken soon or late with
steady use. Derangement may occur
at any moment If neglected, it be-
comes a serious matter. If taken at
the first sign and given prompt, in
affair and all will be well.
A wheel with one weak spot cam
not function properly, and but one re-
suit Is then inevitable. Undue STRAIN
is produced. and proper adjustment
and alignment is thus upset. The
condition grows rapidly worse. The
aXel is wrenched and weekend at
evry turn. The rims twist. Tires and
tubes operate at disadvantage with
extra stress. The chassis is tortured
out of shape. The solid foundation
for the motor is impaired. The joints
of the body are distorted. The doors
refuse to shut snuglv. There is the
dickens to pay generally.
All this because the careless mo-
torist has not the forethought or the
thrift or patience to devote minute
daily to the close inspection of his
wheels.
The Woodtite Laboratories, of Mo-
desto, California, makers of the IA
nous Spoketite, have proved all this
at a great care and expense by testing
more tEan $4,000 ears under steady
use in various parts of the country.
They have .heerfully disclosed the re-
suits for the benefit of the public,
stating that they believe that much
ard lasting good will come Of it. OF
this there can be no doubt, and the
Woodttc people deserve the thanks
of every automobile owner There
fore, let this be the moral of it all:
Look to your wheels!

BURNING OUT WEEDS.

National Crop Improvement service.I
Dirty fence corners and fence lines
are the spots from which weeds are
distributed over the farm. Cleaning
the corners by hand, pulling the weeds,
takes care Of the corners, but the ex.
tensive fence lines cannot be handled
In this way.
Anyone who has tried cleaning fence
lines erected on wooden posts, by
burning, knows the danger and anxi-
ETY. of the work. However, when the
fence has steel posts, there is little
danger in burning.
To burn fence line select a day
when the wind Is blowing across the
line, and fire the vegetation when dry.
from the windwnrd side.
IF there is large accretion of dead
vegetation along the line the fire will
be very hot and may damage the wire.
so remove any brush heaps, ETC., be.
fore burning. The burning of the &C.

MOSAIC DISEASE THREATENS
SUGAR CANE INDUSTRY

Tn mosaic or Noting disease Of su-
gar cane. which threatens to cause con
siderable LOSSES 10 the cane industry Of
Louisiana. is most apparent ON the
vourr leaves of the plant, lscc iIlu,tra-
tion). The leaves of The diseased plants
instead OF being dark green "a, are
those on healthy plant. are Of q yellow
ish green color The leaves also have a
notified apprcancc due to the presence
of white or light yellow stripes of
green tissue. Sometimes these hight co
lored stripes are few in number and
large but more frequently they are
small and narrow and 50 abundant tat
the whole plaut has a light yellow ap.
perance as compared to healthy plants.
"While our knowledge of the disease
is yet limited, there are several recon-
mendations which we can make which
we beIive will help TO check the disease
in the state, and possibly in the end
will eradicate il or keep it in control, -
says c. w. Edgerton, plant pathoiog 81,
Experiment Station, Louisiana tuivcr-
sity. Tle measures for control recon-
mended by DIR. Edgerton are as follows:
l, If there is none of the disease in q
neighborhood, do not ship in cane from
other localities for planting purposes
This disease SCENE to be spread larglv
by shipping in new cane for seed pur-
poses. As all carieties at the Sugar Ex
pertinent Station at Audubon Park are
at present affected, it is probable that
no cane shipments will be made to
those sections where the disease is not
present.
If the disease occurs on one or two
small plots only on plantation, it Is
advisable to destroy this cane immed-
lately. On a number of plantations in
the state, small shipments of diseased
cane were received last year, these in
most cases planting only a small part Of
a row. If plants from tlis seed are the
only ones that show the disease, 1t
would be advisable to destroy them.
