Scorch upon cotton and linen some
times can be removed if the fibers are
not actually burned. Wool and silk
are disintegrated at a lower tempera-

be restored to their original condition
after being scorched.
For removing slight scorch stains
from cotton and linen, use one Of the

MICE THREATEN DISEASE

Immense stores of wheat have ac
cumulated in certain districts in Aus
tralia for several years past because Of
the lack of shipping to carry it to the
foreign markets. This wheat is placed
in sacks and stored in great piles. The
presence of these quantities of readily
available food led to such rapid multi
plication of mice, that control of the
rodents and saving the wheat threat
ened to become a serious problem. The
mice, however, were attacked by vir-
ulent skin disease, which reduced their
numbers rapidly. The damage already
done to sacks and wheat necessitated
the rebagging and shifting of large
portion of the grain. Men employed in
! this work and women engaged in mend
ing gnawed and torn bags were in many
cases attacked by a skin affection, ap-
parently of murine origin.
The United States has been import
ing considerable quantities of Austria
lian wheat. The question arises, is
there danger that men engaged in ths
handling and milling of the wheat may
become infected with this skin diseased
In an attempt to answer this query GER
tain studies have been made at the
hygienic laboratory of samples of wheat
and of mouse skins collected in Aus
tralia by agents of the United States
department of agriculture.
The following is reported by R. E.
Buchanan in the journal of the Amer
lean Medical association:
Samples of Australian wheat were
examined. One contained parts of the
dried skins of two mice. The latter
were so dried, dusty and adherent 10
the cotton in which they were wrapped
that satisfactory examination proved
difficult. 1t is possible that the mice
examined had been infected, but there
was no microscopic proof. Many at
tempts were made to infect mice and
guinea pigs from these skins and from
the wheat. All were without result.
No fungus like the one in question was
secured as the result of numerous cul-
ture attempts. If present originally,
in the wheat samples or the mouse
skins, the fungus probably had died as
a result of the prolonged desiccation.
It is not improbable that under cer-
tain conditions there may be an occa-
sional appearance of this disease among
those handling Australian wheat in the
United States. The possibility of the
spores being present in flour and cars
ing infection in bakers is very remote.
Careful studies of the thermal death
point of the spores of this fungus ap-
parently have not been made, but re-
lated trichopytes have been shown to
be readily destroyed by heat. 1t is not
at all improbable, however, that some
of the mill by-products used as animal
feed may infect mice or possibly other
animals or man occasionally.
1t is not probable that the danger
from the disease is great enough or the
disease itself serious enough to war
rant interference with the importation
of the wheat from Australia.

26O STYLES OF TIRES ARR.
MANUFACTURED IN u. S.
Rubber Firm Undertakes Policy of Better
Understanding Between Maker and User
Industry Being Improved Constantly.

Tire troubles in general may
never be entirely eliminated. but
John w. Mcguire. president of the
Midwest Rubber Association. has
undertaken a policy of better un-
derstanding between tire manufac-
turers, tire dealers and tire users
which should work out to the ma
terial advantage OF all three parties
concerned in this vitality important
industry.
The automobile industry and the
tire industry have grown to such
enormous proportions in such n
short space OF time that it is only
recently we have been able to work
out the details of it's operation in
many important respects" said Mr..
Mcguire. in discussing the industry
of which he is an important factor.
Mr.. Mcguire is vice president and
general manager of the Portag"
Rubber Company of Akron. and con-
sequently is nationally known as Il
tire manufacturer, who in his own
plant has established sound rela-
tions between the factory and the
consumer through the dealer.
ITO make the best possible tire,
taking advantage OF the latest de-
velopment of formula, process and
manufa cture. using the best obtain
able material and putting conscien-
tious endeavor into his product is
the first aim OF a successful tire
manufacturer" continued Mr.. Ma
guire. ITO get that tire to the con-
'sumer in the easiest. cheapest. most
convenient and most serviceable waE

crude oil base. with q tank OF this

owners have made a practice Of
using ether for winter starting. but
this has obvious disadvantage.
Either the 76 degree gas or Pc
troleum ether will be the best
starting medium.

manufacturer really wants only one
thing when he has high quality
of tire. He wants as many auto
mobile owners as possible to take
advantage of his product, and for
this reason he tries to give the max
imum amount of consideration, serv-
ice and convenience TO his public
This aim is general among high
grade tire manufacturers, and II is
the backbone of the business to work
out the best possible machinery for
serving this purpose. This is the
task to which We are setting our
selves. and in which we are improv-
ing rapidly. We iLtend to still fur
ther improve. now that the indus
try is becoming stabilized and stand
ardiZed.
AT present. there are manufac-
tured in America more than 30
styles and types Of tire. The war
showed us that eight were enough.
and We are going to endeavor TO
apply in peace that lesson which the
war gave MS. 1t will mean a bless
ing to the manufacturer and a cor
responding benefit to the consumer.
because it will mean simplicity, sta
bnity and convenience. There are
many other respects in which manu-
facturers can better organize the in
dustry as a whole, and which sew
eral of US have found advantageous.

leap three feet into the air and
