Look After Little
Cuts In Castings

"One thing to be remembered about
the proper care Of tires is this: When
a tire shows the slightest signs of CIV
ing away or develops a cut in the
tread take it Immediately to an ex-
pert tire repair man.
This was the advice given local
atFoists yesterday by P. T. Coe of
the Vasey Rubber company the Fed
eral distributor.
Everyone who drives a car should
examine the tires for the slightest
break in the tread he continued.
Very often If it has not penetrated
to the fabric, it may easily be made
as good as new by the tread gum.
But the cuts II not given the
proper attention allow sand and
water to accumulate under the tread
and work into the tire between the
tread and fabric. These are called
sand blisters and often end in a
blowout in a tire which is in perfect
condition otherwise.
Another mistake is to attempt to
repair cuts which have penetrated to
the fabric by cenlenting repair fabric
in the casing. We often see the re-
suits of this kind of repair work. In
almost every case the patch keeps
working into the fabric until it re-
suits in a ruined tire. The best way
is to take the advice of an expert
tire repair man and have him keep
your tires in good shapes In this
way he may add hundreds of miles
in service to the use you get by hav-
ing Your tires properly repaired at
the right time"

Closed Cars Gain
In Popularity

The enclosed car has recently
jumped into popularity as the "all-
purpose car according to Arch Dull
mage of Dulmage e. Dunbar. local
distributors for the Hudson and Es-
sess, in discussing the latest models
delivered by the Hudson Essex COM
pany
The new enclosed cars. said Dull
mage, (which have properly been
named coaches, the name being given
from the general appearance of their
lines, are being manufactured with a
well-pade top so that there is no
chance for the slightest rattle and
rumble, so often heard in many mo-
tor cars. The tops are now made
with material that makes them as
light as the tops of open cars, there
by doing away with the top heavy
feature that has troubled manufac-
turers previously of enclosed cars
The reason that these cars have
become so popular" continued Arch,

posure to dirt or dust or rain, and
in colder weather there certainly can
be no argument as to their constant
comfort. In summer time they can

open cars but With even greater pro-
lection from the suns rays, since the

and style will be maintained despite
the low selling charge is vouched
for by local distributor Bob Hunsick,
of the Franklin Motor Sales COM
pany.
This startling reduction was made
possible through capacity production
months ahead of the spring selling
campaign. All through this speeding
UP process of manufacture, every eff
fort has been made to make the.
Franklin more pleasing and better
equipped. Labor has been placed on
a new basis of efficiency in the fac
tory itself and greater production
has been made possible with less
actual work.
There is not the slightest doubt,
but that this cut win create an inn
mediate shortage in Franklin cars
said Mr.. Hunsick, because every
dealer in the country increased their
orders at once knowing that prospec-
tive buyers will be induced by the
new prices to make their purchase
without any further delay. mas
much as the new car is easily 100 per
cent more motor car than has ever
been offered before for the same price

FOREIGN TRADE
LOOKS BETTER

Foreign trade is upon the thresh-
old of better days, according to a
statement by the Cadillac Motor Car
company OF Detroit.
When Europe can afford to in
crease its buying. it is q pretty fair
indication that Europe is on the
road TO financial recovery. And
when orders come in from every Sec
tion OF the world. it is even greater
indication that the whole world is
getting back to its normal stride.
The Cadillac motor car company
announced this week that there was
an increase in foreign shipments
since the first of the year, ranging
from 81 per cent to 651 per cent
greater than during the same period
of 1921.
The following figures showing the
increase in Cadillac shipments to
several countries over the volume of
early 1921, indicate a wide spread re-
covery of the automobile business.
Buenos Aires, 2I3 per cent: Christi
lania, Norway, 81 per cent; Geneva,
Switzerland, 1S5 per cent; Havana,
Cuba, 315 per cent London, England;
13S per cent; Sidney, Australia, 420
per cent; Utrecht, Holland, 651 per
cent
Cadillac shipments have been made
to the following countries since jan
uary /, 1892: Egypt, Chile, Jugo-
Slavia, Argentina, India, Peru, Vene-
zuela, Norway, Turkey, Switzerland,
Manchuria- Cuba. Hawaii, Jamaica,
Bolivia, Honduras, New Zealand,
England, Spain, Mexico. Africa, Porto
Rico, Santo Domingo, San Salvador,
Shanghai, Stockholm, Australia and
Holland.
ITO us, this increase In foreign
business is most encouraging, con-
crete evidence that the whole world
is coming back financially" states
Lynn McNaughton. general sales
manager of Cadillac. 1T is natural, of
course, that this recovery of business
affects the top Of society rather than
the bottom of society first. We are
also pleased with this increasing
business from all parts of the world
as a tribute to Cadillac. which for
years has led in the American quality
