CARE FOR TIRES IN WINTER
They Should Be Partially Debated II
Car Is Used oceasionalIy-Re-
pair Any Cuts.

If an automobile is used occasion
ally during the winter, 1t will not be
necessary to remove the tires, but
they should be partially debated, ac-
cording to the department of agri-
cultural engineering of the University
of Nebraska. The wheels should be
supported by jacks.
Tires should not be left standing on
greasy or wet floors. Grease is in
furious to the rubber and moisture to
the fabric.
If the car is stored for the win
ter 1t should be lacked up and the
tires removed. If there are any cuts
in the rubber they should be re-
paired so that the moisture may not
enter the fabric.
During the winter, after the castings
have been wrapped in paper or bur-
lap to keep them as dry as possible
and to protect them from the SUM-
light, they should be placed in a dry
room with temperature ranging be-
tween 40 and So degrees. Inner tubes
should be removed and either be de-
f1ated or rolled loosely with a slight
air pressure left in them. The tubes
should then be given the same care
as the castings. Carefully avoid any
contact with oil.

ANTI-FREEZE AGENTS
FAVORED FOR WINTER
Most Motor Makers Recommend
Alcohol and GlycerIn.
Three Substances In General Use
Which Can Be Prepared by Owner
Without Consulting Any Pro-
fessional Mechanic.

This IS the open season for anti
freezing solutions, and car owners win
save themselves much annoyance and
considerable expense if they will but
heed this warning and take ordinary
precautions
There are three substances in gen.
eral use for making anti-freeze solu-
tions, each of which can be prepared
by the owner himself and used with
out having to consult the professional
mechanic. Alcohol is probably the
most popular of all anti-freeZe agents.
Glycerin has proved very effective, but
its cost during the war made its use
almost prohibitive to the ordinary own
er. Calcium chloride is perhaps the
most easily prepared solution of all
and, for that reason, is widely used,
but 1t is a dangerous solution to use.
The commercial product sold in solid
form or Ia aqueous solutions as an anti
freeze mixture, is highly injurious be-
cause of the action on the compOnents
of the cooling system. Such alkaline
solutions are productive of an cleo
trical action wherever two dissimllar
metals a=e utilized, such as the brass
tubing o. radiator and the solder
used at the joints, the iron water jack
cts and the brass or copper plates.
SUMMARY of the opinions of motor
car manufacturers as to the value of
various anti-freeze solutions shows
decided preference for alcohol and
glycerin. Neutral alcohol does not act
on metal or on the rubber connections.
But the alcohol in the solution will
evaporate more rapidly than the wa
ter.
