That, especially during the
rainy season, care should be
taken to keep the tires as dry
as possible. Because rubber will
cut easily when the edge OF the
cutting surface is wet-as evil
denced by the fact that rubber
workers dip their knives In va
ter In order to facilitate their
work-glass OF even sharp
tones are far more dangerous
during or after a rain than they
are when the roadway is per-
fectly dry. For this reason, even
a comparatively short drive on
a sharp gravel road on a wet day
will cover the tires with small
cuts into which dirt will creep
and cause undue friction heat,
even IL the rubber is not cut
through to the fabric.
Water also presents another
danger to tires In that it tends to
rot the base on which the rubber
tread Is applied, weakening the
entire casing and leading to pre-
mature blowouts. Scraping
against the curb often wears
away the thin layer Of rubber on
the side Of a tire and leaves the
fabric exposed to the rain or wa
ter from the road, while sharper
cuts In the tread Of the tire will
have the same harmful effect.

POINTS ABOUT coTTER PINS
u 10 Not Necessary to Bend Ends Over
Flat Against Bolt or Rod, Says
Motor Life.

s
After having slipped the cotter pin
into place, do not bend the ends
over fiat against the bolt OF rod, adj
yises Motor Life. It isn't necessary
to do this, because the cotter will lock
just as securely IL the ends r spread
just enough to prevent slipping out.
When the ends are bent considerably,
It is harder to s%traighten them stuff.
ciently for later removal Of the pin,
and, further, the ends are very apt
to break off when the part is in serv-
Ice, with the very probable result that
the liberated cotter will slip out.
Thus, instead Of excessive end bend
Ing being an effective locking means,
1t is In reality no lock at all.

MOISTURE AIDS cARBUREToR
Applies to Differences in Attitudes at

Operation of a carburetor is affected
by changes of atmospheric conditions.
Although the reason Is not clear, mois-
ture in the air taken through the car
buretor and on into the cylinders with
the fuel seems to cause better opera
ton Of the engine. This would also
apply to differences in attitudes at

SORE EYES IRRITATE LAMBS
Complaint More Common Than For
merly and Caused by Breeders
Putting Wool on Faces.

-Gonp4atutor sore eyes in young
lambs is more common than it used
to be. This is because breeders have.
put more wool on the faces Of the
sheep. When a young lamb manifests
sore eyes the frst@thing to be looked
for Is the mechanical Irritation Of
hairs due to an inturned eyelid. Il
this condition is not found then it is
time enough-to put on boric acid.

NEGLECT OF CAR
MOST EXPENSIVE
Overlooking Little Details Almost
Sure to Cause Trouble and
Unnecessary Repairs.
GOOD POINTERS FOR OWNERS
Proper Care Of the Radiator and Reg.
ulation Of Water Supply important
Cellular Openings Should
Be Kept Clean.

There is always q day Of reckon
Ing for those who neglect details in
the care Of their car and that day is
just likely to come when you least
expect 1t. What you think you have
saved by neglect will be spent In ex-
pensive roadside repairs. Tending to
details Of thrice cheaper, and what
is more. relieves future worries.
One detail Of your a which you
should watch carefully is your radia-
tor. Trouble is sure to follow unless
1t is kept full at all times. Form
the habit of inspecting and reflling
the radiator before the q Is taken
from the garage. When on long tours,
especially If you have been doing
considerable hill climbing, keep q
weather eye peeled towards the water
supply.
Water Supply Important.
Remember that the proper amount
of water is as important as your sup
ply Of gasoline and oil. It is not a
bad plan to examine the water sup
ply every time that you stop for gas
oline or oil. Use clear water, and If
rain water is o%btainable, employ it, as
less scale and deposit will result.
The cellular openings always should
be kept clean. Keep mud from re-
naming in them, as it cuts down radi-
alton, and prevents proper cooling.
You should occasionally flush the en-
tire circulating system. This may be
done by disconnecting both the upper
and lower hose connections and al
lowing fresh water to enter the filler
neck, and flow down through the radi-
ator and out the lower hose. The
actor water Jackets car be flushed
ut in the same way.
Scale Should BE Removed.
- If hard water has been employed,
! scale deposit will be formed, which,
unless removed, will hurt the circula-
ton, and cause unnecessary heating
and frequent reilling. This scale car
be cleaned out by dissolving a half
pound can Of I've In about Eve gallons
Of water.
Then take a cloth and strain the
liquid, after which pour. it into the
radiator. Run the motor for about
Eve minutes, and then draw off the
solution through the radiator drain
cock.
