BEST ALIGNMENT OF WHEELS
Tires on Front Of Many Cars Worn
Out Before Driver Finds Out
Real Cause.

Many motorists completely wear out
the front tires on their cars before
they find that the wheels do not run
parallel. In the ordinary car front
wheels are toed in 3-16 to 3-8 of an
inch to take care of their spread IN
der power. In the opinion OF tire
men failure to properly align the
wheels is responsible for the prema-
ture scrapping of tens of thousands OF
tires. Wheels of new cars require less
toeing In than the wheels of cars al
ready limbered up.

You Auto Know

That the slightest lack of
alignment in the steering wheels
will cause tires to wear out long
before their allotted mileage
has been secured. This trouble
is usually due to slight collisions
or even failure to avoid holes
in the road. The strain bends
the equalizing rod and the
wheels are thrown out of true
possibly not enough to be seen
with the unaided eye but ap-
parent when measurements are
taken. AS a result Of this, one
or both tires "grind" with every
revolution of the wheel and the
wear comes on the portion of
the tire which is not protected
by the heavy tread.
The remedy and also the pre-
vention Of this is to have the
front wheels inspected regularly
and to keep a constant watch
upon the tires to see that they
are wearing evenly and that
this wear is being taken up by
the tread. Reputable tire manu-
facturers guarantee their prod
uct for the minimum and not
the maximum number Of miles
which they ought to deliver and
the vast majority Of failures to
secure this mileage are due to
the carelessness Of drivers, rath-
er thap to faults in the tires
themselves.

Most Machines Are Nearly Alike
and Only Experts Can Distin-
guiSh Different Makes.
TURN ATTENTION TO DESIGN
One Good Way Is to Observe Name
Plate on Front of Car-Hub Caps
Offer Means of Identification,
as They Are Marked.

"How can tell the different makes
Of automobiles" is a question often
asked by the man who walks, observed
a New York Sun writer.
The best answer to the question it
seems is, you can't"
There was a time, some years ago,
when there were comparatively few au-
tomobiles, and these were readily dis
tinguishable.
Those were the days when the au-
tomobile manufacturers were concen-
trating their efforts on the improve
ment of the engine. 1t would make no
difference how beautiful cars were
made if they refused to go. Their eff
forts were successful; the automobile
engine today is as near perfection as
human products can get. SO the manu-
facturers, the last year or so, have
turned their attention more and more
to design.
1t was natural that there should be
extensive adoption of some Of the fea-
lures of foreign made automobiles, for
design to American-made cars, a great
deal of hard work being involved in
their manufacture. It was also natural
that American manufacturers should
take the opportunity to carry out their
own ideas of design. The one result
has been to make all cars more alike.
Tell by Name Plate.
The one best way to tell one car
from another is by the name plate on
the radiator front of nearly every car.
This is nearly always small and incon-
spicuous, and when a car is passing at
a speed of 20 or 30 miles an hour it is
almost impossible to identify all cars
In this manner. Hub caps offer anoth-
err means Of Identification, as the hub
caps of virtually all cars are. not only
! distinctive, but are also usually
marked with some simple mark Of
Identification.
There are cars that are distinctive
enough in design to be identified in
glance. There are cars of the sport
ing" type, low and "rakish" and sug-
geStive Of speed; the sight OF such
car suggests only two or three posi-
bilitieS.
Cars of Homely Type.
There are cars of the "homely"
| type, of squat and serviceable appear

| sight of only two or three names come
| UNl.o oh yinY IcIxy
3ensive cars, cars which suggest lux
| Try In their every line, in the aces
| series, In the flash Of nickel mount
ings. A car of that description might
be any one Of half-dozen cars, the
| aristocrats of the automobile world.
| But outside of these distinctive
| types there are many cars, mostly of
the middle price range, that are ex.
tremely difficult to identify.

New Type Of Power Shovel.

New Type OF Power Shovel.
1t has long been recognized that, to
meet certain conditions, gasoline
driven power shovel would have ad.
vantages over machines using other
forms Of power. Many atteRnts have
been made, patterned mostly after the
steam shovel, to adapt gasoline power
to this type Of machine. but all Of
them have been open to criticism.
Now, however, new type of gasoline
power shovel, described In Popular
Mechanics. has been placed on the
market which Is a radical departure
from the accepted designs. In this
machine, which has successfully
passed Its preliminary trials, all DOW.
er is supplied from one slow.speed
gasoline engine, and there are no mo.
tors. engines or clutches on the boom.
The dipper can be put through any
motions possible with the steam shov.
el, even to the shaking of the dipper
to free It Of sticky material. The
boom may be raised or lowered In tho
usual manner, while the swing is con.
trolled by separate clutch. The
