Every tire has embossed on the side
n serial number. 1t is important that
the car owner should have a record Of
thts number in each case and such rec
ord should be made when the tire is
bought.
A lap robe, a gunny sack, or even
some old newspapers will frequently
be enough to get car out of deep
sand or mudhole if placed in front of
the rear wheels to provide traction.
In inspecting the springs attention
should be given to the spring hangers
and other subsidiary parts. Lost mo-
tion. usually side play, often develops
in the spring hangers and shackles.
Motorists frequently overload their
storage batteries by the use of eleC
trical accessories not included in the
cars regular equipment and then won-
der what's wrong.
Many drivers do not know how to
take the bumps easily. A good way
is to throw out the clutch and apply
the footbrake gradually.
Watch the wires where they fasten
to the lamps, as the motion of the car
makes them sway and may cause n
break or short circuit.
Lack of attention to the way the
rear wheels are running is a source of
subsequent financial loss to automo-
bilists.
The total number of cars registered
in all of the states during 1919 will
probably be close to 6.500000.
1t is impossible to keep the hands
clean when making repairs on the ma
chine.

GETTING RID OF ROAD TAR
Must Be Attended To Promptly or
UnsightIy Streaks and Spots viii
Be the Result.

Unless washed off promptly with
soap and water, road tar will quickly
harden on a car, leaving unsightly
streaks and spots. There are several
good ways of removing it, however.
One consists in the application of but
ter or oleomargarine which will soften
the tar without injuring the varnish.
Another good solvent is cocoa butter,
which is used in the theatrical profess
sion for removing gfease paint. This
can be purchased at drug stores, and
is harmless solvent of all kinds of
oil and grease, as well as tar.

DAMPNESS IS. HARD ON TIRES
Water Inside of Breaker causes
Rapid Disintegration-Good Roads
Are Favored

Wet weather is very destructive to
tires that are partly worn out. The
average motorist is apt to think of hid
tires as being made only of rubber
and therefore waterproof.
A partly worn tire is a long ways
from being waterproof, however, and
the other materials that enter into
It's construction are decidedly subject
to damage from water. When water
gets inside the breaker strip Of tire
and into the fabric and friction gum.
it causes rapid disintegration. One
reason why our good roads make tires
last longer is that they dry quickly
after rain. About the only good thing
that can be said for our dry winter is
the fact that tires last longer.

AMERICAS LOW PERCENTAGE
Only ,z2 Per Cent of Present Mileage
Is lmproved-LittIe Built for
Heavy Traffic.

The American public, though fast
becoming awakened to advantages to
be enjoyed by improved roads, may
not realize the immense effort which
must be exerted to catch up with Eu-
ropean nations highway systems.
When Germany entered the war in
1914, Prussia alone had 10000 miles
of hard-surfaced highways. In pro-
portion to the size of the two coun-
tries, the United States would need
to have 1,611, ,914 miles. The present
road mileage in the states is 2,500,00O,
OF which 12 per cent is improved and
only one-quarter of 1 per cent con-
structed for heavy traffic.

FOR CLEANING VALVE STEMS
Simple Way Is to Inject Little kero-
sene-OI Softens and Washes
Off Carbon.

simple way of cleaning valve
stems which are under suspicion OF
harboring carbon deposits is to inject
a little kerosene in the air valve of the
carburetor while the engine is run
ming In this way little of the kero-
sene finds its way down the valve
stem and softens and washes off the
carbon. 1t is no bad idea to do this
once month or so.

TO GET CLEAR RAIN VISION
Nothing Is Better Than Kerosene and

1t frequently comes in handy to know
that little bottle of kerosene and
glycerin mixed in equal parts will clear

raindrops and give clear vision ahead.
This compound operates to spread the
rain drops in a thin even sheet all
over the surface instead of letting 1t
stand in globules.

When the cooling system is kept In

emergency crisis, have popularized this
method of moving farm produce to
market.
Survey Is Made.
The bureau of markets conducted an
extensive survey of sixty motor routes
to ascertain the defective practices and
as far as possible to suggest improve
ment which would stabilize the indus
try. The bureau found that rural
freight is hauled by the farmer who
owns a truck and handles his personal
marketing as well as that of his neigh
Dor by motor, by the local truck oper-
ators who haul farm produce as bust
ness, by the local automobile or truck
agencies that operate transportation
trucks as side line, by the city trans
fer company which also engages in
rural hauling, and by the large corpor-
alton which operates fleet of trucks
over wide range of territory. Natur-
ally with such a diversity in the haul
ing agencies there is a similarly wide
range in their methods of doing bust
ness.
