'Reducer Of Friction
Only One Of Numerous
Functions Of Grease

Most car owners consider gear
grease solely as reducer of frie.
ton. But, according to the Joseph
Dixon Crucible company, this is bu,
one of many functions.
"The relation of grease to car eff
cheney is so close" says the engi-
neering staff of this company, "tha,

"Among other things it has been
found that of the numerous re-

Prices of Auto
Tires Low Today.
Makers Assert
Reduction by One Manufac'
turer Brings Cost to Is Per
Cent Below Pre.War
Schedule.

Prices of automobile tires are com.
,aratively low, according to the
Goodrich Rubber company, which
las issued the following statement:
A careful analysis of tire prices
indicates that they are actually low.
On May 2, the B. F. Goodrich Rub
Der company announced a 20 per
cent reduction. This reduction
brings Goodrich prices down to a
point IS per cent below the pre-war
schedules as represented by the 1918
level. According to Bradstreet's
index, general commodity prices
have risen % per cent during the
same period. 1t is rather startling
10 find that in 1910 tire prices were
rs per cent higher than today. The
lowest point in the history of tire
prices was in 1915. This extreme
low point was only 20 per cent be-
low present schedules.
Any discussion OF tire prices, how
ever, is incomplete unless compare
tive values are considered. The
question is: How many miles do |
get from my tires today? And how
does this compare with what I re-
ceived in 1915? Beginnisg with 1915
and the war Standardization move
ment, which extended over a period
of several years. tremendous strides
have been made in quality and in the
mileage service of tires. The extent
to which this is true is not realized
by the motoring public. Yet this
increase in service is actually meas
urable. In the first place, consider
the actual increase in size. For in
stance. cord tires made by the lead
ing companies are uniformly 10 per
cent over the rated size. Specialize
ton in the production and prepara-
ton Of raw materials has been of in
calculable benefit to tire quality. Re-
markable progress has been made in
the art of compounding rubber to
produce the maximum degree of
wear. These salient factors have
been supplemented by improved
methods of manufacture which have
resulted in a uniformity Of quality
and service absolutely unknown
few years ago. ....
A tangible expression of the
greater mileage service now being
built into tires is reflected by the
higher basis of adjustment generally
used by the leading companies.
Thus, if tire proves defective today
b b adjusted, under the Goodrich
plan. on the basis of 5000 miles if it
IS OF fabric, and 5000 miles if it is
of cord construction. Contrast this
with the adjustment basis in use a
few years ago, i. c., $500 miles, and
it is easy to comprehend the great
progress made in tire manufacture
II is not a far-fetched conclusion
TO say that tires today give from 50
per cent to 100. per cent greater
mileage than they did a few years
ago Therefore, if the tire compan-
les were selling mileage today at the
1915 price level, tires would actually
cost from S. to $25 more than at
present. The conclusion is obvious,
therefore, that based on compare
tive service tires cost less. today !
than ever before.

No Further Price Cuts
On Essex and Hudson Cars

The following wire was received
by Guy L. Smith from the Hudson
Motor Car company and Essex
Motors, of Detroit. last week:
Statements indicating that we
are about to reduce prices on Hud-
son and Essex cars are without
foundation. When we reduced both
cars last fall from 5000 to $3.50, we
anticipated market changes that
have since become effective. You
can use this message with your trade

Cotter Pin Fuller.

A very convenient cotter pin
puller may be made by bending the
end of a piece of IS inch rod into
the shape of button hook. On the
other end a T-shaped handle is riv-
eted. An additional convenience is
to drill piece OF l-inch round stock
and place it on the body of the puller
for use as sort of sliding hammer.
A series of taps with this hammer on
the end of the puller will loosen the
recalcitrant cotter pin.
