DRAG DISABLE ED CARS
WITH RIGID TOW-BAR.
Piece Of Rope or Tire Chain Are
Not Suitable.
In Case Of Sudden Stop lowed Ma
chine Runs Into Rear End Of
Pilot and Both Vehicles Are
Unnecessarily Injured.

Invariably when I'm automobile has
broken down in the streets or on the
road, the owner of a small garage will
send the first available car, equipped
with a piece of rope or tire chain that
he may have on hand, to the scene
Of the breakdown to tow in the dere-
lict. The driver of the towing-car has
frequently an exciting time, especially
when 1t is necessary for him to drag
the brOken-down car through city
streets with much traffic. When he is
compelled to make sudden stop the
towed car will often run into the rear
end of the pilot and both cars are
damaged.
All this can be avoided If the owner
of the garage is provided with
rigid tow-bar for dragging the disabled
vehicle through the streets. A rigid
bar Is by far the best means, as 1t
keeps the two cars at a fixed distance
from each other. Regardless Of the
conditions of the brakes of the dis
abled car, 1t will come to a stop when
the towing-car stops.
In the accompanying illustration a
tow-bar Is shown which can be made
from a six-foot section of one-inch
wrought-iron pipe, two short pieces of
chain, two bolts, and two tire-chain
snaps. The pipe is flattened at each

Child Critics Wreck Show.

The modern child had it's innings the
other day in theater at Halle,
Germany.
A company had been brought from
Munich to give matinee performance
Of fairy play and the theater was
packed with children. They, however,
considered the piece silly and the
scenery and dresses inadequate. Making
tremendous uproar, they demanded
their money back.
NJ BY the time the police arrived and
cleared the theater, the children had
broken up most Of the seats.

Good Use for AirpIanes.

Thirty-three per cent of the 1866
forest fires sighted and reported last
year by airplanes operated from Sac
rament0, CAL, by the United States
forest service, were located within a
quarter of a mile of the exact place,
as was later determined by actual
surveys on the ground. Ten per cent
Of the total number Of fires was dis
covered by the air patrol before the
rangers were aware Of them. Forty
two per cent was reported by radio,
while planes were in the air. Besides
acting as reporters, the planes were
used to direct fire fighting operations
and to patrol fire lines which were
built but needed watching. II the
planes reported a line to be clear,
the fire fighters were kept at work
elsewhere, but If the observer. re-
ported that the fire had broken away,
force Of men could be rushed to the
spot at once.

careful in the use Of the spoon, and
not to dip it into their tea, but to

had come to dissolving this coat in

In the city of .Monteyideo, Uruguay,

Five chauffeurs and two footmen are

keep the boys on the farm" is the
cry from public speakers, magazine
writer's and welfare workers all over
the country. I'VE must stop this
wholesale exodus to the crowded cit
ies"-etc, but in most cases these
well-meaning people overlook one Of
the fundamental causes Of this drift
to the cities. Farm boys would stay
on the farm II there was not some
thing radically wrong, and IL you in

Very often 1t is the drudgery which
he was forced to endure because Of
antiquated methods in the farm build
ings, and very frequently It is the
farm home that is directly RESPONSE
bic. Too often this important factor
In farm life has been neglected, too
often 1t has been merely a shack or
shelter with little convenience and
comfort. If more farm homes were
built on a modern basis there would
be little need for propaganda, articles
land speeches to exhort the boy to
stay at home. A comfortable home
would be the most powerful attrac-
ton that could be offered.

ural light and fresh air. 1t is con-
nected with the dining room by an
open doorway. The dining room is
about the same size as the living
room. It is connected with the kitch-
en- at the rear by swinging door
and also opens into a side hall at
the right.
The kitchen is one that will delight
any housewives heart, for it is small
end compact, but ample for every
need. At one corner is small pan
try, Immediately adjacent is the wash
room which can be used as a laundry,
II so desired. The bathroom, modern
in every detail, is located off the hall
which runs from the kitchen to a rear
bedroom. OF the main central hall
running along the dining room is an
other large bedroom, 16 by 10 feet
6 inches. All Of the bedrooms, OF
which there are three, have excep-
tionally large clothes closets. The
front bedroom, II by Is feet, Off the
front reception hall, also opens out on
to the sleeping porch, which is 8 feet
6 inches by 10 feet. This sleeping
porch has window walls on three sides
and should be an excellent place to
sleep in the warm, sultry summer
months.
A home like this should be the rule,
not the exception, on the farms Of the
country today. Gradually this type
is gaining foothold and we look for
ward to the time when such thing
as propaganda to keep the boys on the
farm will be unnecessary. Home
comforts are being emphasized in both
city and country because the impor-
lance Of the home in community life
is recognized. More and better homes
are what the people want .rf This II
certainly the case Ia rural eeet6rs.

Although separated from Mexico by

of the Seventeenth century, says
John Chapman Hilder in the Ladies'
Home Journal. Prior to this time there
were two important voyages Of dis
covery in the North, but such were the
difficulties and SO great the distances
that they ended in failure. The first

Monster Gray Wolf
Raising Havoc With
Cattle Is Killed

MACKAY, Idaho.-Bert Coates
killed monster gray wolf in the
Thousand Springs valley last week,
which it is believed has been raising
havoc with the cattle in Custer
county during the past year or more
and which resulted in government
trapper being sent in to exterminate
him.
1t is estimated by those who have
seen the pelt and head that the ami
NAL is about twelve years old. Those
who have had experience with ami
mails Of this kind assert that twenty
five cattle per year would be a con-
sentative estimate Of the damage he
has caused. At this rate 800 head
of cattle is the toll that has been
taken by this one animal. Taking a
mean average Of $40 per head over
the twelve year period, the damage
has amounted to $4,000.
In all probability this old wolf
has fathered at least fifty pups, Of
which the great majority lived and
are now running in Custer county,
or at least in this section Of the
state. Not taking into consideration
the possible number of pups they, in
trun, have raised, the possible dam
age done by them would be in the
neighborhood of $4,000, figuring
them capable Of making their own
killings when two years old.
Directly and indirectly then, this
one wolf has been responsible for
damage to the extent of $4,000
These figures are not too high, nor
are they imaginary. They are con-
servative estimates of the probable
damage wrought by this one animal.
