VXyHY do we have Just as
"f many blow-outs and punc-
Wv lures as we did few years
ago? Does the present fault with
tires lie in material or workman
ship?" These are questions you
have often asked yourself They
are Of paramount importance to
motorists everywhere.
Azer thorough study of this matter we
discovered that the real reason for pre-
mature tire trouble is porous rubber.
Ordinary fires are built of rubber which
is distinctly porous in character. Its
toughness and elasticity are quickly i'm
paired with usage. Grease, sand and a
quantity of other harmful substances are
ground into the pores and attack the soft
cned surfaces. The result is a premature
breaking down of the tread and inner
fabric. .sew.i
Due to the discovery Of a remarkable
compound. these. common troubles can
now be greatly reduced. Crolide Com

Smaller Circuses
Moved on Trucks

Altho the motor truck has done
much TO Increase production and 20
tighten the work OF users OF them,
they may be destined to be The cause
OF the destruction Of one OF the great
est pleasures OF childhood Watching
the circus train come In.
All youngsters and many grownups,
have set the alarm clock for a. m.
in order TO be there when the canvas
covered cars come around the bend.
But II is predicted that those times
will soon be no more. The motor
truck already has started to trans
port some OF the smaller shows from
one town to another.
A great saving OF time Is one OF the
main features OF using the truck In
stead OF depending upon train serv-
ice. A manager of one OF the circuses
now using trucks, says that the ac-
tual cost of transport Is less by truck
than by rail- so that the saving on
transportation costs Is now clear
profits.
Immediately after the show closes
the trucks are loaded and a quick
start made so that twenty or thir-
~ miles may be covered during the
time which Is usually spent in wait
ing by the other shows which depend
upon railroad transportation.
This Is all well and good in states
where the roads are always good but
# will be some years before the prac-
tice will be common in all states.

a motor overheating.
Seven possible causes of motor
overheating are: fan belt broken or
slipping. gas mixture too rich. cylind-
ers choked with carbon, too little
water In coUiins system, "Itcsc
circulation stopped, which may
be due to clogged pipe or pump

A we'll taken care Of car needs but
little attention in the spring other
than those things which are neces-
sary in the change from cold to warm
weather driving. The oil should be
drained from the crank case. which
should be flushed out with kerosene
and then filed with the summer
grade Of oil. This is a good time to
have any carbon removed from the
grinders. Drain out the ant! freeze
solution from the cooling system and
clean it by putting in dissolved
washing coda. Use pound for a
small motor and two pounds for a
large one After a days run with
the soda in. drain it out, flush and
replace with clean water. Then clean
the gearset and differential and
change to the heavier summer oil.
These are the important things to
do IN the spring after all danger OF
freezing weather has passed. Filling
of grease cups, fabrication Of springs
and inspection OF tires are not only
spring but all-year round Jobs.

twenty trucks each, transported sup

Hints on DRIVING.

There is no need to tell the old
driver that railroad tracks should be
crossed diagonally to ease the jolt.
which is bad enough at best, but the
new driver will save himself some
shaking up by needing this advice.
Again, it will be found advantageous
to drive up long, steep grades in the
country, where traffic is light, in a
series of zigzags, as Transfers do.
This lightens the grade and helps the
motor.

NV most thrilling ride occurred IN
1905. We had had our auto aoo"'

where with out car ever since we
had Il, and finally got started July =
II had rained every night and AFTER
noon for a week, but the day We
started to Washington. lO3 miles as
tant, the sun was bright ana the
roads dry.
Going at the rate OF twelve miles
an hour, which was fast in those days
we found ourselves twenty-five miles
from home after two hours ride, when
the rain storm came. We stopped
Mt the side of the road near farm
house and were covering the car with
a cover when a farmer in wagon
drove up. The team didn't like the
idea of passing the contraption by the
side of the road, and the farmer
started to curse. He was glad that
the car had broken down. as ne
thought II had, never dreaming that
any self Prospecting car would stop
because of little rain.
The farmer finally consented to
take US in out of the rain, and we just
reached the house when the real
storm began. 1t rained all day and
all night. and continued doing so un-
til the fourth day. On the afternoo
of the fourth day, the sun came out
and we decided 10 so on our way. A =

we got started.

differential with a screw driver. as
the wheels were in a twelve inch rut
and the clearance of the wheels WIS

: We reached Cedar Rapt+s IT good
shape, and the next div started home.
Our car was STRIPPED for fast work,
no windshield, no top and no claims
and we made the fifty-r five mile till
in one day.

ASK FEDERAL REGISTRATION
TO ELIMINATE CAR THEFTS

The establishment of a Federal
Registration Bureau in the Depart
ment of Justice with registrars in
each State to certify transfers Of
passenger cars, trucks, airplanes and
motorcycles and prevent the theft Of
motor vehicles, would be provided by
a bill introduced by Congressman
Harreld recently in the House of Rep
resentatives at Washington.
The bill would establish Bureau
with a sum of $4,000, and would
give it authority over automobiles,
automobile trucks, automobile wag-
ons, motorcycles, motor boats, air
planes or any self propelled vehicles
not designed for running on rails.
The registrars in each State would
be appointed by the Attorney Gener-
al, and would receive applications for
and issue certificates of ownership
