reaches the required thickness. There may be a dozen of these layers of pure rubber in the larger sizes of tubes. The purpose of this is to counteract the natural tendency of rubber to be slightly porous, and it's other tendency to "grain" like wood.
 When the tube has been vulcaniz- ed, through the action of heat, pres sure, and the presence in the gum of certain compounds, a chemical change takes place which changes the tube stock from a series of layers to one integral piece of tough non-diffusive rubber.
 Not satisfied with this, the Good year factory some time ago broke away from the old process of rolling out the tube stork in long sheets, turning up the sides to form a cylin- der and scanning the edges together. All Goodyear tubes are now rolled up o ra, fnandrel, or sort of metal pipe, the sheets of rubber being wide enough, to go around the. mandrel com pietely twice. This avoids a seam, and is double reinforcement against leaking"
 It is plain then that a tube, built of pure stock ,and on correct scien- tific principles may be great deal lighter in weight than another tube, and still be much stronger than the other one.

is largely used in practically every form of transportation, in surgical goods, footwear, trains, aeroplanes, buggies, gas engines, automobiles, electric apparatus, radio, building construction, otilet articles, household wear, etc. And the uses of rubber are growing daily.
 "How fast the rubber industry is taking it's place as one of Americas industrial leaders may be judged from the fact that in last month our sales increased 150 per cent over the month of April, and our May and June busi-, ness, compared with May and June of last year, nearly doubled. Sales of cord tires since January of this year have been double those of the first five months ,and at this moment our sales are running higher than ever before in the history of Goodrich"
 "And the future never looked brighter. I am sure that it is not too optimistic to look forward to the time when every industrious and intelligent working man will be able to afford a modest automobile. Production of the low-priced cars was never greater than it is today and scientific com petitio his so healthy that no one is able to predict how cheaply car may be put on the market tomorrow. The greater the output of cars the greater, of course, the demand for rubber tires and other automobile equipment. Prosperity in any one line means equal prosperity in all the related in- dustries. So you can see, I'm sure, the sort of hopeful, encouraging mes sage l am gladly carrying from the United States to England, France and Germany"

OPTIMISTIC TONE TO
 RUTHERF0RDS MESSAGE

Before sailing for England, Paris and Germany on the s. S. Mauretania, Mr. w. o. Rutherford, Vice President of The B. F'. Goodrich Rubber Com pany, who is accompanied ou his trip by MT. L. D. Brown, Treasurer of the Company, explained to the news paper men who gathered to see him eff. that his trip was not a va:ation. "I haven't had vacation for many years," he said. q have to make my work my recreation, though am mighty careful to see that every Good rich employee under my direction takes an annual vacation. No, the Goodrich Company has a large sub sidiary factory just outside of Paris and one. of the reasons of my trip abroad is to spend some time at that plant"
 The Mauretania carried away with it a radiant optimist as to American bushes conditions, when it carried MT. Rutherford away. A full tide of unprecedented prosperity is setting in throughout the United States" he says. q have never seen a brighter outlook nor more hopeful conditions. The minor disorders we have been having in the way of strikes will soon be satisfactorily settled and forgotten; the air will be the clearer; the straight road ahead that is leading us to pros perity will be unimpeded.
 "Of course, while speak generally of conditions in all lines of business, it is the rubber business I know best and about which am the most com- >petent to speak. But l think you can take the Goodrich Rubber Company as a very fair indication of what is going on, perhaps in minor way, in great majority of industries. We, for in stance, have been so busy supplying an ever-increasing market that we find the twenty-four hour day all too short. We are obliged to have three sets of employees working in three shifts of eight hours each.
 Competition in the rubber industry is keen but fair; and it has resulted in vastly improved industry; an in- dustry that cannot afford any lost motion but which is constantly, by scientific management, cutting costs of production and thus effecting a tremendous saving for the buying public. And should like the public to realize what a tremendous basic industry the rubber industry is. How largely it enters into the life and in- dustry and convenience of the nation is evidenced by the fact that rubber

USE OIL FREELY

Oil is the only remedy for squeaks in the car. Friction between the body and the frame, mud guards, springs and spring clips, tire carrier, hood, radiator supports and many other places will cause noise. Squirt oil in- to all the likely places and most of the unlikely places and the annoying ,"birds" will be finally suppressed.

OPENING OLD MINES

Many old silver mines in the Sil- verton, Colorado, mining district are being taken over by wealthy mining men and it is expected that operation will be under way on them shortly. The mines were among the old time producers of the Centennial state, having produced millions of dollars during the palmy days of silver min ing. Colorado in all it's old-time dis tricts shows new life, many of the mines being in the hands of young and energetic mining people.

The Sioux Falls Press paid the fol-

Hundreds OF basket ball fans boost

support and they gave it unreseryedy.

White had an ambition and seven of
its nine students set out early in the
season and worked hard under ali
kinds of handicaps TO make thai am
bition a reality. Their ambition was
the winning of the state basket ball
championship.
White had no gym, it had no trained
coach and no second team to use in
practice games. An old college ath-
lete, named Lockhart, not skilled in
basket ball threw in his lot with the
White team and worked with them
during their training period. He
whipped into shape a wonderful team.
They went through the season playing
brilliant ball, only being defeated
three times, won the district chan-
pionship and came to Sioux Falls.
Here they fought valiantly and up in
to the finals.
They were defeated yesterday after
noon by Yankton, the state champs.

CROP RESERVES LOW

The current report Of H. o. Her
GRANDSON, Of Watertown, agent in
South Dakota of the bureau of crop
estimates, United States department
of agriculture, shows that the re-
serve stock of cereal crops in
South Dakota on March 1 were rela-
lively smaller than one year ago.
Starting with the largest corn crop in
the states history, the unusually
heavy farm demand has reduced the
present reserve to 10 per cent below
what was on the farms Of South Da-
kota n year ago.
The report states that the very
heavy feeding of hogs, which has been
common over the state, is no doubt
one important factor, since the amount
that was actually shipped out was
nine per cent less than was shipped
the previous year. One noticeable
feature of this report is the high quail
ity that the last years crop attained,
81 per cent being marketable.
