this sway pneumatic tires for trucks
need to be built especially heavy IN
the tread and side wall. To solve
your problem we can offer two recon-
mendations: One is that you use on
the rear wheels 35x5 pneumatic truck
tires which will fit your present rims
or that you cut down the rear wneeis
to accommodate a 24-inch instead or
25-inch rim and equip them with SIX
inch rims and 36x6 pneumatic truck
tires. The five-inch truck tire with
its heavier construction will give much
better service than passenger tires OF
the same size, although there Will
still be an overload OF $40 pounds per
tire. The six-inch tire, however, mas
a carving capacity Of 1900 pounds
and would more than pay for Itself
in service under the conditions.
From a firm of general contractors
in Kentucky-We operate truck
rated two to three tons hauling tWO
cubic yards Of gravel weighing b,4oo
pounds a distance of ten miles. Part
of the road is rutted macadam and the
rest is we'll packed gravel and good
dirt road. We have 36x6 pneumatics
on the front wheels and 3Sx7 pneu-
mates on the rear. We are having
no trouble with front tires, but tne
rear ones are not holding up. Are we
using the correct sizes on this truck,
and which type would you recommend
for rear wheels, pneumatics or SOLOS
Reply-The weight carried on each
of your rear tires Is 4,025 pounds, anu
on each of the front tires, 1,725 POUNDS.
The maximum carrying capacity OF
six-inch> pneumatic truck tires Is 100
rounds; seven-inch pneumatics, 3,0oo
pounds: eight-inch pneumatics, 4,Ooo
rounds, and seven-inch solids, 1901
pounds. The seven-inch pneumatic
tires now on your rear wheels are
overloaded approximately 900 pounds
each. We believe that is the main
cause for the failure OF the seventeen
pneumatics to stand up. To carry the
load, you should use eight-inch pneu-
rnatics.
Taking into consideration the road
conditions, which appear to be nara
roads for the full trucking distance,
we do not think pneumatics are az
economical as solids for your rear
wheels. 1t would appear that solids
would get plenty of traction under the
road conditions. II this IL true, the
remaining advantages which a pneu'
matte tire would have for rear wheels
would be speed and cushioning. Part
of the roads over which you operate
are rough, therefore speed Ii not pos
sible over a considerable part or the
distance. The effect Of pneumatic
tires for cushioning the rear end Is not
as important as for cushioning the
front end as far as truck upkeep Is
concerned, especially when operating
at low speed.

DUAL VALVE SURVIVES
|. SLEDGE-L|KE BLOWS
Pierce-Arrow Engineers Subject
Truck to Most Severe Test
Ever Imposed.

The most destructive test ever APP
piled to a motor truck recently was
completed by the Pierce-Arrow Motor
Car Company Of Buffalo, N. Y. The
truck, a standard five-ton dual valve
unit, was subjected to 1900 front and
rear-end collisions. No breakaze Of
any part resulted; in fact. at the con-
clusion Of the test the truck i'm
mediately was started on a long test
run.
To produce the 1920 shocks the
truck was placed in a steel cradle and
run back and forth under It's own
power, so that It struck steel blocks at
either end. A load of seven and ono
half tons was placed on tho truck
The force Of the blows was 30 severe
that four men alternated In driving the
truck. changing every twenty minutes
THE force Of tho blow which the
rear wheels struck can be compared
to a pile driver" said one of the com
pany's experimental engineers. 1T
would be equivalent to one-ton pile
driver dropping height Of thirty feet
striking pile which moves three
inches at each blow. 1t would require
$500 such blows to equal the total
punishment which the truck with
stood"

FRENCH EVOLVE NEW
ROADWAY PRINCIPLE
Departure In Construction
Promises Material Aid in Solv-
ing Highway Problem.

The French, ever to the fore in
matters Of highway development.
have Just announced a new tpe Of
highway, which gives promise Of
solving some of the difficult problems
of those who build our roads. The
surface Of the road Is composed Of a
new material compounded of con.
crete, iron and cement. The first
completed section of this type Of con-
struotion was recently inspected by
French, British, Belgian and Ameri-
can highway engineers and the chorus
Of unqualified praise augurs we'll for
the future, though we must remem-
Der, of course, that tho proof OF a
highway is In it's continue use.
In construction a great trench IL
first constructed and In this a layer
OF concrete is placed, Approximately
five inches thick. On top of this 10
placed another layer of pure cement
of the same thickness. In tho cement
are placed large iron studs, twenty
five to the square yard. This mass 10
then covered with layer Of fine
concrete, which is laid on before tho
cement below Is quite dry. Tho
whole Ia then thoroughly cured by
the water process and the result Ia
claimed to be the best road seen in
Europe since the highway builders Of
the Roman empire threw up their job.

EXTRA LOCKOUT FOR VINO
DIvIDERS IS ADVISABLE

When using calipers, or dfviders on
repetition work. or II they are to be
put away and the setting is to be held.
1t is a good plan to screw on an extra
nut, preferably Of the split spring nut
variety, using this as a iocknut. Extra
nuts can be obtained at most hardware
stores carrying a line OF standard calf
pers. The regular nut should ps
countefsunk slightly at the large end
to take the taper end Of the lockout.
OF course this makes two nuts to be
adjusted and the calipers will not open
to their full capacity. but In many
cases the means of locking the setting
is a great convenience. as this 10 oftan

Earring.
At other times the extra nut may be
quickly removed by unscrewing the
ball on the end of the adjusting screw.

HELDFALLACY
Many Ways Suggested by Which
Auto Can Be Operated
With Comfort.

The idea that car ought to be
stored away during the winter
months must have had It's inception
In the mind Of some motorist who
many years ago drove an open car
over the Recovered paths around
the arctic circle, says Stephen Flynn.
jr., in Motor. Since his time, how
ever, we have learned many things,
principally that we can operate our
cars with a degree of comfort for the
passengers even though the Their
mometer hovers around the zero
mark, and that II necessary we can
make Of these same open cars type
Of enclosed vehicle.
Then, Of course, we have fairly
high percentage of regular enclosed
vehicles which can be fitted out to
be as cozy and comfortable as your
living room at home. This is not to
say. however, the mere ownership
of an enclosed vehicle implies cold
weather comfort. There are certain
needed preparations. not only for the
passengers, but to make driving safe
and to keep car depreciation at
figure no higher than normally.
Must Counterfeit Freezing.
Most OF the cars on the market
are water cooled. and. as we all
ought to know. water freezes at 30
degrees F. 1t therefore becomes
necessary to use something in addi-
ton to water to prevent freezing.
1t il not the mere freezing that
hurts. but the fact that 1t may con-
tinue long enough 10 split the cyl
inders open or tear the radiator
apart.
Even slight freezing blocks the
water passages and causes overhead
ing because of impeded water flow.
Any substance tending to lower the
freezing point Of the water may be
used, but not all such substances
are desirable. They must do this
and they also must not be damaging
to the system, nor must they cause
trouble on q moderately warm day.
Proprietary compounds and solutions
have been recognized as fulfilling
the need Of an efficient anti-freeze.
but only when the compound II
marketed by some reputable con-
Germ. Some Of these prepared COM
pounds are not as good as they
might be. owing to impurities. free

tor, congealins characteristics, etc.
II you choose an anti-freeze COM

been used successfully in years past
or one that IL guaranteed by
reputable manufacturer. There are
various kinds. some being in the
form Of salts, others in liquid form,
tho latter having alcohol principally
as q base.
Can Mako Own Solution.
The motorist may make his own
anti frseze solution. Some fear the
expenditure of . few dollars and
provide the engine with kerosene in
stead Of water. mix oil with water
and use any and all sorts of sub
stances. Common table salt will lower
tho freezing point of water, but there
are certain disadvantages in using
these salts when not chemically pure.
The best salt to use, II you wish to
mako your own anti-freeze, is cal
cium choride as pure as possible.

Apart from protecting the cooling
system, the motorist should attend to
other important matters. There Is
