MONTGOMERY GETS NEW PLANT.
Has Just Installed Fine Up-to-date
Vulcanizing Plant.

H. B. Montgomery, proprietor of
the Motor Supply Co. of this city
has just installed an Akron Williams
Vulcanizing Plant, one of the very
latest and best plants on the market
today 1t cures the patches on tires
and tubes by steam, driven through
the iron moulds under pressure.
Tire fabric cuts and blow-outs are
cut down to the firm fabric, buffed
clean on an electric buffer, then
built up with overlapping layers of
fabric and cement, clamped in the
steam heated moulds, and cured a
specified length of time, depending
on size and depth of repair.
The Akron-Williams people have
perfected the air bag" method of
tire repairing. The "air bag" cure is
best because there is no chance to
overcure or burn" a tire. An air
bag similar to an inner tube in
shape and sixteen inches long is
placed inside the casing then placed
in the steam heated mould, and
when clamped down, is inflated to
fifty rounds. The combination of
heat and pressure melts the cement
on the fresh patch, and forces it into
the fabric, making a patch that is
a permanent part of the tire, and
a patch laid in by this method will
| outlast the balance of the tire.
The Akron-Williams lVulcanizers
are used by the largest tire manu-
facturers, and are recommended by
them for repairing their tires. Mr..
Montgomery has spent considerable
time in the Goodyear factory at
Akron, Ohio working both on fabric
and cord tires and has learned the
| business from start to finish. Mr..
Dana Brother, who has been with
Mr.. Montgomery for two years, work.
| ing principally on tire work, spent a
month this winter working under
Goodyear factory experts.
This plant is one of the finest in
stalled in this section of the state
and the Motor Supply Co. will be in
position now to give the auto
owner most complete service. "a
visit to the plant is worth anyone's
time.

When the Farmer Built His House

When the Farmer Built His House.
Here is a little story told by a
lumber yard man: Four years ago a
farmer built house costing $4,000.
In order to pay for it he sold $50
hogs averaging $50 pounds each at
$3.50 per cwt., or $4,000. A few
weeks ago his neighbor, who is go
ing to build the same house, called
at our office, and after quoting him
on the millwork, summed up his
figures and said the house would
cost him $4,025.O0, or SO per cent
more than the house his neighbor
built four years ago. That seems like
quite an increase, but now just stop
to compare the present price of hogs
with the increased cost of the house
The farmer also had $50 hogs aver
aging $50 pounds each. He sold
them for $3.50 per cwt., or $685.
90. In other words, it took only 81
hogs to pay for his house, leaving q
balance of $5,3S7,90 for which he
could build another house and still
have enough left to buy good sizet

LAREDO. Texas. Sept. 6.--(P)-It is stated here tonight that many American citizens have been refused the permission of the Mexican gov ernment to enter the Tampico sec tion. The reason given is that the Americans have declined to waive the responsibility of the Mexican gov ernment as to their safety should any bodily harm befall them. In this district this is taken to mean that the Mexicans will not attempt to protect Americans in Mexico beyond preventing them from entering un- less they absOlve Mexico from any blame should anything happen to them.
