It happens on hot days
 PATCHES

Patching will make an.auto tire that has sprung a leak hold air. Patches don't cost much Putting them on is simple. But every hot day finds every highway strewn with motor cars held up because the heat has caused patches to loosen, And every garage has a string of patrons who are the victims of such mishap.
 The safest and surest way to fix a tube so it will stay fixed is vulcaniZ- ing whether you do it yourself will one of the little home kits that anyone can use or whether you take it to a garage.
 This isn't a wholesale condemna tion of patches. It's a. good thing to have something of the sort under the seat when you are away from home. But it's a lot more comforting to have a first class tube in good condition to slip in when the inevitable happens either by puncture or blowout or just old age.
 And when you put on a patch be sure that it extends far out around the hole you are patching l have made a friction patch do the business for pretty big blowout by putting a strip of the stuff inside the tube face up to meet the patch on the outside.

it was a new fangled idea, and that my horses were good enough for me My argument was that I could depend toss up whether the tractor would work or not. But l was open for proof and I made it q point to watch the iron horse work whenever I had a chance. 4 man from Iowa bought a place next to mine and with the ma chinery he bought was a small Avery tractor. He had one piece of about twenty acres right across the road from a piece of my land about the same size I had about five acres of mine plowed when he commenced. When he started in with his tractor I felt sort of sorry for him because the season was well along and I didn't figure it wise to waste any time ex . perimenting. l was using four horses on a riding blow, and just to show my neighbor how it ought to be done 1 put on an extra team. ] was beat. as the saying is, before I started He had his piece plowed disced and seeded before I had finished blowing.
 "I saw right then and there that that little old machine was better than six horse teams and I began to get down to comparing costs. We'll sir just sold myself a tractor right there as slick as a whsitle And now that l have used one for two seasons, I feel towards the man who is trying to farm without a tractor.

HUT WEATHER CAUSE IF MANY AUTO ILLS
 SAYS TIRE EXPERT

These hot summer days are the ones that cost motorists lot of money" is the declaration of D. w.. Sanford, manager of the local Good year Tire and Rubber company office
 Most motorists have a wrong inn precision about the increase of air pres sure in tires in warm weather" says MT. Sanford Tn fact thae belief is quite common that on hot days the air pressure may increase to the point of causing a blowout. There really is nothing to this belief. for the heat does not come from the temperature of the air outside, as is commonly sup posed, but from the natural flexing of the tire as it rolls over the road or street.
 As this heat is due to the bending of the tire the same amount of heat is created regardless of the outside temperature. Most tire users believe that to overcome this effect the pres sure must be decreased. and the com mon practice is to run tires at a lower pressure on hot days. But this in creases the bending of the tire carcass and the motorist actually aggravates the tire condition that he seeks to re- lieye when he decreases the pressure in his tires.
 Tt is true that on a very hot day the air pressure in tires that are used continuously increases slightly but never sufficiently to cause any injury to the tires. Tires are not as fragile as some persons imagine, and are able to stand three and four times the or dinary pressures used.
 There is more danger of decreasing the pressure than in permitting it to increase, for after the tires have rested

WESTERN FARMER |S QUICK ID FORESEE
 TRACTOR SUPREMACY

"No man can estimate at present with any exactness to what extent the tractor will modify existing methods of farming. But it is ap parent to all that methods are chang ing from animal power to mechanical power just about as fast as the manu- lecturers can turn out machines says Ernest G. Coan, advertising manager of the Pratt Gilbert company, dis tributors of Avery motor farming ma chinery.
 Just to cite an instance that hap pened in our state Q few weeks ago. A farmer purchased an Avery two row motor cultiyator. An expert was sent to help start the outfit and in struct the farmer in it's care and op- eration. Within an hour or so of the time the expert and the motor culti- vator reached the farm, the owners s fifteen -year-old son was running the outfit With ease, and doing about as good a job of cultivating as any man can do with a single-row cultivator and good team. The boy and machine were doing work that heretofore has been accomplished by two men and four horses. What is more, the machine can keep going longer hours than the horses.
 The other day we ran across man who is a real tractor enthusiast. He i has been farming with an Avery trac- tor for a couple of years. In many re- spects his story is typical of scores of others we have heard. Following is the substance of what he said: I used 1 to laugh when I read or heard about using tractors to blow, harvest crops i run the thresher, etc. I figured that

URGE ENACTMENT OFFEDERA[ JAW
 ASMEAN5 IF HALTING AUTO THEFTS

the automobile industry Will result Tn federal legislation being enacted. The industry itself can spell the doom of the motor car thief
 No one sees an opportunity of ln- turing anyone in the enactment of such a law, unless it be the organized gangs of motor thieves. Police departments in all large cities would welcome such a law It would be folly to quote the amount of money that is involved year ly in car thievery: that it would ex- tend yearly into eight figures and pos sbly nine is conjecture. Close to a million dollars of that sum is spent yearly in tracing stolen motor cars; a large number of men are engaged in this business who could be doing some thing more profitable for their com munity.
 Motor car stealing has increased in surance rates and there is every in dication that unless something is done the insurance companies will be forced to still further advance theft pre- miums.
 Prediction for the future indicate that there will be a shortage of man power in the country, so much so that the national government will be forced to suggest ways and means of cur tailing unnecessary labor. Men de- tailed to hunt motor car thieves would fall under such a ruling; federal law would reduce the number of men en- gagged in such work and give a man that kind of protection for his motor car that he is entitled to.
 Congress has devoted a great deal of attention to the third largest indus try when they were in need of rev. enues. Some congressman will es tablish himself as the champion for the large number of motor car owners in this country today
 Who gets the honor is something i'm partant politically, but what the gen eral motoring public is interested in is | assurance that motor car thievery will | be halted if not stopped. If federal 1 law is the solution, and this thus fal seems to be the answer-then federa'
 law is what we want quickly.

Cyril Arthur Player, editorial writer on the Detroit News, formerly auto mobile editor of the Seattle Post h. terigencer, proposes a federal law that would protect the motor ear or truck owner from this colossal evil against society motor car thieyery. He sug- gests federal status which would compel the registration of motor ve- hicles, passenger cars and trucks with the federal marshal, attorney or other official who deals in the enforcement of federal laws. Mr. Player would have the manufacturer cast numbers on his various units. It would be an Offense under federal law to steal a car or truck; to try and efface or disguise such numbers; no cars could be sold without it, was accompanied by federal certificate of registration, which would be in effect the registra- ton of a bill of sale with the federal government.
 Something must be done to halt or stop the theft Of motor cars. Ii is costing millions of dollars and a large number of men to trace stolen motor vehicles. It increases the first cost and increases the yearly maintenance cost of motor cars. Insurance prem iums have been placed at excessive figures because of such stealing and the future indicates that unless some protective measure with teeth in it ap- pears they will still further increase Motor car thieves are occupying too much time and causing too much wor- ry for police departments It is teach ing crime, because it has been an easy matter to steal and dispose of mo tor car with punishment prospects light even in extreme cases.
 Steps are under way in Detroit to have the Detroit Automobile club and the Detroit Automobile Dealers Asso- citation get back of a movement foi such federal law. Both organizations will discuss it at their next meetings A. l.. Zeckendorf, Cole and Chandler dealer and president of the Dealers organization and c. Edward Bliel, Re public truck manager, director o the Automobile club, are both strons for the enactment of such legislation
 Over 5000 letters are leaving De troit addressed 10 the automobile deal. CTS throughout the country urging tha they exert their influence for the en- actment of such federal legislation They are urged to take it up with theil local dealers organization, with thu National Automobile Dealers Asso citation and their congressman

a while the air pressure will drop. and there is always the danger that the motorist will omit to put in enough air to bring the pressure up to the re- quired point.
 There is no condition in which tires are subjected to greater variations of air pressure than in automobile rac- ing on our speedways. Yet even on the hottest days the terrific grinds of the race tracks. with tires revolving 20 times a second do not cause them to blow out And there is certainly no condition in ordinary driving that even approaches those of the speedway.
 ''The recent races at Indianapolis were held on one of the hottest days that racers have ever experienced. yet thirty eight per cent less tires were

Racingl drivers have learned that after a tire, becomes heated to a certain point, the. radiation of heat from the tire is as. great as the generation of heat-all of. which means that any increased ail'i pressure due to heat is negligible in is

 There is no question but that motor ! ists will profit greatly by keeping up

Perhaps MT. Repairman would cons demn the idea as foolish. But some of those patches hump up most dis tressingly if not reinforced.
 Be sure the tube is CLEAN before you apply the cement and the cement is DRY before you apply the patch. To many a repair has turned out bad be ] cause of haste in putting on the patches. and it's no fun to work ;t hand pump on a treeless road with the sand blowing in your eyes.

The favor of the prohibitionists of
the world is apparently turned from

president advocates the manufacture
and sale of beers and light wines. and
the prohibition forces take exception
to this divergence from strict prohibit
effect of the prohibition amendment
to the constitution.
In fact Ex-Governor Frank B. VIII
lis of Ohio, the principal speaker at
the prohibition meeting in the audi
torium Tuesday night made state
ments to that effect. He declared that
the present congress will not be intim-
that 1t is his personal hope that the
president gets all the credit due him
for his stand"
Willis was in Topeka acting CO.

The tourists are delegates to the con-

in their several nations. The tourists
are Canon John Howard Bertram Mas
