GOOD
ROADS
PNEUMATIC TIRES ARE BEST
Offer Greatest Influence in Reducing
Impact Force on Surface OF
Various Roads.

Prepared by the United states Department
of Agriculture)
Impact-the force resulting when n
truck wheel strikes the surface OF
road-depends largely upon the kind
and condition of the tire used on the
wheel, the bureau of public roads of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture reports after series of extern
slye Investigations on the subject.
When roads were built to carry the
traffic OF n few years ago the actual
weight or speed of the load was only
generally considered. Much attention
was paid to the question of whether
the traffic was equipped with steel or
rubber tires, but definite analysis of
the surface and supporting conditions
of the road and determination of
destructive forces were not deemed
necessary. The transition from horse
drawn to automobile and truck traffic
has changed the surface and strength
requirements of the road of to-day.
When the realization came that this
heavy and severe traffic was here to
stay and that roads would have to be
built according to very careful and
thorough design in order to carry this
traffic 1t was found necessary to study
very definitely all the forces to which
road is subjected For two years
the bureau of public roads has been
working on the problem of obtaining
the value of the impact forces on
roads.
Some high points In their report re-
Gently made are
Thin or worn solid rubber tires, even
though they be very wide, produce very
high impact forces.
Pneumatic tires offer the greatest
influence In reducing impact forces,
and with their use the impact increases
only very slightly with the speed Of
the truck.
Cushion tires, that Is, tires having a
degree of softness and DETECTION be-
tween solids and pneumatics, offer cor
responding advantages In reducing i'm

TO MAKE SWIMMING SAFE.

"The old swimming hole" is all right
II you know all about 1t, but every
year many lives are lost because peo-
pie attempt to swim In uncharted
lakes or rivers with dangerous holes.
Out in Shelbyville, Ind, boy scout
lost his life in one of these treacher-
GUS gravel holes and the tragedy
nwoke the public to the dangers in its
own midst. The Rotary club immedi-
ately came to the front and enlisted
the willing cooperation Of the boy
scouts In charting and permanently
marking all the danger points In the
vicinity of the town. The scouts made
the signs and the Rotarians sold them
Under the slogan of "Buy a sign and
save a boys life." Wires as well as
signs were placed over these PREACHER
GUS holes by the scouts and trash and
dumpage were also cleared out.
How about your town? Any need
of this kind of safety-frst work? If
so, set your scouts to work. That
good old ounce of prevention of which
we have all heard so often is still re-
markably worth while as a substitute
for the pound of cure, which is, some
times. as it was in Shelbyville, a sad
business.

Although heavy inspiring weight
may give higher impact than lighter
inspiring weight, it cannot be said
that this Is the major controlling
factor.
The relative destructive effect pro.
duced by lightweight, high-speed
trucks and heavy, slow-moving trucks
has not been determined by these tests.
They do, however, indicate that equal
impact may be obtained under some
conditions.
Impact may be as high as seven
times the static load on one rear wheel
when solid-tire truck strikes a l.
inch obstruction at 16 miles per hour,
an average value being about four
times. For pneumatic tires the maxi
mum impact value is probably not
