U. S. Gasoline Consumption.

Washington, d. CA continuation
of the decline in the production and
supply of gasoline is indicated by u
statistical statement just issued by the
United States Bureau of Mines, in
which it is shown that the nations
stock of this fuel on July 81 amounted
to 6S4, 1860 gallons as compared
with a supply of 75O,644,45O gallons at
the beginning of July.
Gasoline was produced to the amount
of 419,641,S15 gallons in July by 299
petroleum r~efinerles, having a daily ca
pacity of 1,721,550 barrels of oil. This
is a decrease from June of eleven
plants and 3S,225 barrels of daily ca
pacity.
The daily average production of gas
oline for July was 13,536,S33 gallons,
which is n decrease from June of S07,-
$50 gallons per day. This is, however,
an increase of 1862 gallons over the
daily average production for the year
1920.
Exports of gasoline for July amount
ed to 27,3S2,79S gallons; shipments to
insular possessions were 2,036,39S gal
Ions; imports were 1,127,704 gallons (;
and thed domestic consumption amount
ed to 457, 1886 gallons.
For the month of July the daily av-
erage production of gas and fuel oils
was 100000 gallons smaller than the
production of June. Stocks of these
oils were increased during the month
of June by approximately 10000, 900

CARE OF SPRING
WILL Save TIRE
Improper Adjustment of Brakes,
Careless Driving and Under
initiation Are Bad.
LUBRICATION IS NECESSARY
Oil or Graphite Between Leaves Will
Enable Springs to Take Up Shocks
of Road and Prevent Hacking
of Parts.

There is a very close relationship
between proper car of the springs in
an automobile and the mileage which
the motorist receives from his tires.
Properly adjusted, well fabricated
springs will mean longer life to tires
and to the entire car, while cracked
or neglected springs will cause rapid
deterioration of engine, body and tires.
Many motorists believe that If they
make a cursory examination of the
tread and outer sidewalks of a tire
they are taking ample precautions
against undue wear and tire trouble.
Yet there are many other things to
which the average driver pays little
attention which have a direct bearing
ON the service he gets from his tires.
Harmful to Tires.
Improperly adjusted brakes, care
less driving, overlooking, underinfia-
ton and, last but not least, bad
springs will all strip dollars of the
tires every time the car is driven.
Springs are placed in a car not only
to make it more comfortable to ride

of the road shocks and prevent rack
ing of the various parts. When there
Is a shock, such as IN when a
wheel hits a rough spot in the road,
the tires get 1t first. Then follow
shocks to the wheels, axle, body, &C.
cupants and motor, with the springs
in between to take up as much as pos
sible.
Springs Need fabrication.
When the springs fail to function
properly, all the shock has to be taken
up through the tires, both in the ini-
tial shock and in the natural rebound.
fabrication of the springs is not
difficult, and labor expended In this
task will pay big returns. One of the
best methods Is dlsmantling the
springs and l%ubricating them with
graphite grease. First remove all the
rust with an emery cloth. Another
iIethod is to lift the body Of the IA

A simpler method Is to take an oil

In the springs. allowing the oil to flow

them back and forth. permitting the
oil to work we'll back under each leaf.
