JUDGMENT NEEDED
In BUYING TIRES

When does it pay to re-equip a
truck with solid tires? Involved in the
correct answer to this question is a
consideration OF the real function
which tire is called on TO perform.
The purpose OF the rubber tire is to
absorb the shocks and jolts of the
road When il ceases TO perform that
duty a new tire should be put on. II
the old tire is kept on too long the
expense Of operating the truck will
increase unduly, repair costs will
mount up and depreciation Will pro-
ceed at too fast a rate.
After careful tests. the United
States Tire Company advises users of
its solid tires TO get new tires when
the old ones have worn to within one
inch OF the lip of the channel of the
steel base. The only exception is in
the case OF small sizes where the load
is not so heavy and where wear may
be permitted TO proceed a little closer
to the steel base.
There is need for discrimination in
the buying OF solid tires just as in the
buying of tires for passenger cars.
The ideal solid tire is one whose rub
Der compound gives a tough, resilient
wearing surface down to the last min
ute of its usefulness. Rubber that Is
too soft will wear away rapidly apd
send the tire bills soaring.

AUTOPURCHASE IN
us. SHOW INCREASE

An excellent idea of the tremendous
growth of the automobile and how 1t
has gradually become a part OF our
daily life can be seen from the fact
that since 1914 there has been an in
crease of 25S per cent in the number
OF automobiles purchased in the
United States.
In 1918 there were some 6.146,OOO
registered automobiles, compared with
100000 in 1914. This great growth
OF the automobile industry during the
last five years was obscured by the
war, but 1t is interesting to notice
how each year the number OF motor
cars in use las practically doubled.
For instance, in 1900 the most avail
able figures showed there were only
10000 automobiles registered. From
this year to 1905 there is some doubt
as to accurate figures. inasmuch as
automobile registrations are not avail
able from 1901 to 1905.
In 1906 there were $4,000 registra-
tions; in 1907 there were 100000, a
gain of little over so per cent; in

EIGHTY PER CENT

Eighty Der cent, an astounding pro- portion, of the population of Mones- sen, Pa, is of foreign birth. Every country on the globe appears to be represented in Monessen.
 Surely such an advanced situation of cosmopolitanitis demands special ist in Americani0ation to treat it, and Monessen has called in the doctor. In cooreration with the Bureau of Nat uralization of the United States De- partment of Labor, the Americaniza- tion committee, of which MT. O. W. Sadler, of the Steel Products Co.,, is chairman, has inaugurated a novel method. A man of each nationality in the Seel Products Go. was appointed to act on the Approximation commit tee. Certain qualifications were de- manded of the appointee. First, he must have been in his native State long enough to know something of its institutions; second, he must have lived in this country long enough to have learned to read and write; third, he must be a naturalied citizen; fourth, he must be an active, wide awake man, interested iii Americaniza tion work. It has been the policy to incite friendly rivalry as to results of Americaniation work among the rac- es
 An illustration of the effect of this work upon the men is given in the case of one of these naturalized citizen leaders who, although he himself did not need the instruction, decided to go to night school so he could better influence those of his nationality to go As result of these measures there has been a great impetus in na. turahzation. and most of the appH- cants for citizenship are preparing themselves for new duties and privi- leges by attending night school.

 The Dream Orchestra was on hand with their "jazz'', and later the drum mer from the Grand Theatre, MT. J. Grant Sutherland. took a turn at the drums and added some pep to the dance which closed shortly after one o'clock.

New Process of Wine
 Making to Save Grapes

California wines may be made in Canada. Japan or China, following the enforcement of the National Pro hibition amendment.
 This is the possibility brought about by the discovery of new process, by which dried grapes, with proper mixtue of water and yeast, can be coveted into palatable wines. The 7rocess is the discovery of Thomas I. Casey, Oakland mechanical engin- ger, and has been submitted to the '-;ticultural department of the Uni "ersity of California.
 Casey's experiments are being made n an endeavor to find a process by which California vineyards could be N"eservcd and California grapes turn ed into wine without breaking the pro- ''isions of the new amendment.
 In the new process. the grapes are artificially dried, care being taken to preserve the color, flavor and sugar content. Casey says the practice of making wine from dried grapes has already been fully developed in Eu- rope and results in marketable Nroduct.
 Professor w. E. Cruess of the Uni. versity of California, submitted to Casey report on the quality of wine made from grapes dehydrated by his process. Professor Cruess says the tests Drove that superior quality wine cah b emade' in this way.--San Fran cisco Examiner.
