FREIGHT RATES ON COAL TO
NEVADA ORDERED REDUCED

Rules were laid down to bring
about proportional reductions at
other Nevada consuming points
" hich were not specified in the de-
scriptions given.
This reduction in rates came as
the result of a petition filed by the
Nevada public service commission
over a year ago. The hearing was
held in April, 1921, with the Reno
Chamber of Commerce participating
in the case with the public service
commission
The present rates to Reno Is $712
per ton; to Winnemucca $675 per
ton and to points east of Winnemuc-
ca $G.37 per ton.
According to the dispatch there
will probably be reduction on
branch line roads which will not be
known until copies of the decision
of the commission are received
| This is taken to indicate that Gold,
/ field and Tonopah will be given pro
portionate reductions, according tt
Il. H. Walker.

CAREOFWHEELS
AND RIMS VITAL
Many Motorists Fail to Give
These Parts Proper At
tentiOn.

Automobiles can do just about any
thing and get along with or without al
most anything. They will navigate along
some way or other without tires, fend-
ers, hood, body or top, but there is one
thing they just will not and cannot DO
and that Is to run without wheels. This
is why motorists growing more and
mora careful Of the attention their wheels
receive, according to the manager OF the
Indiana Wheel and Rim Company, 40
w trth st~nat
"Some wise old sage, rich In motor
car ls s. 4 .ta!.D .4l.ed that an auto
mobile is just as rood as lis wheels he
said, land there Is lot more truth in
this than most persons Imagine. Few
motorists realize just how yitally i'm
portant it is to take good care of these
parts of the machine. They will pay
every attention in the world to other
parts, to the care Of the tires. TO the con-
dition of the paint and of the body, and
yet they will neglect their wheels.
They take these parts too much as
matter Of course and utterly fail to
realize that no part Of a car is subjected
to harder usage, more strain, ana more
pounding that are the wheels. These
wheels may become the source Of endless
trouble and great expense to the motorist
who fails to give them the attention they
deserve or at least fair share Of 1t.
They get out Of line ami by the uneven
ness Of their road surfaces cut tires to
pieces In short order. they get banged
aUult, develop all sorts Of distressing
squeaks and creaks to drive the m"torist
wild. and all because of the failure OF the
car owner to give them a little timely at
teEtion.
me Indiana Wheel and Rim Company
was organized for the express purpose OF
correcting. preventing and curing the rim
troubles and wheel troubles Of car own
ers. Among some Of the things our
company can do Is TO take the nerve
racking squeak out OF wheels, avoid the
cutting the tune valve stems by the in
sertion OF proper wedges IN the rims, In
addition to this, we are in a position TO
replace all broken and damaged parts.
think can say with perfect truth that
we carry In stock parts for practically
every known make OF wheel, wood, wire
or disc.
I'VE make a speciality or our paint
work and on three days notice are In a
position to paint wood wheels any de-
sired color We carry in stock rims and
wheels for every make Of ear from 1912
models down. The only Information we re-
quire of the customer IS the model Of
his machine and make and size OF rim
and we then can give him service.
"The vital necessity OF paying atten-
ton TO rims and wheels is becoming more
generally accepted among motorists. and
they realize that the old alage about q
stitch In time saving nine holds good In
respect TO wheels and rims with three

NOVEL PAYMENT
PLAN SUCCEEDS
Heating and Plumbing install
latiOn Made Easy for
HOuSehOlders.

PAYMENT plans of purchasing about
everything from homes, automobiles ana
talking machines have been in effect Tor
years, but ii has remained for the firm OF
August Buschmann & Sons, wholesale
plumbing and heating supply dealers,
College avenue and Eleventh street, TO
work out the details of n plan whereby
householders may have their heating and
plumbing systems installed on the part
payment plan.
The details of this system are thus ex-
planned by Alfred w. Buschmann, presi-
dent Of the company:
THE plan, known as the Buschmann
payment plan, operates in much the same
way as the deferred system used by deal
ers in washing machines, Photographs and
automobile and although II has been In
operation relatively short time 1t has
demonstrated beyond question its FEAST
bility ard success.
We have found that the system has
opened a hitherto unexplored field Of work
in the plumbing and heating industry IN
this locality, which when developed, Is
going to mean a big thing for the com
munity In the past many persons nave
been compelled TO put off much needed
plumbing installation or heating lnstalfa-
ton because OF the expense connected
with it,
This always seemed all wrong to our
company, for we felt that somehow
plan could be worked out to cover the
situation At last we hit upon solu-
ton so simple that it really seems
strange no one ever thought OF It be-
fore II home. furniture, automobiles,
washing machines, vacuum cleaners anu
other household devices, many OF them
not really essential, can be handled on
the deferred payment plan there seemed
to US no good reason why heating and
plumbing work could not be taken care
of In the home by the same plan.
When we first announced It we were
told that 1t was revolutionary, radical,
foolish and about everything else We
were told that we could not possibly
hope To succeed, but we went ahead,
and thu success with which we have met
in carrying ont our idea was proof
beyond a doubt that we were fully JUS
tilted In it. In fact. It worked even
better than we had hoped.
.IIouseholders everywhere. all over In
dianapolis, were not slow to take advan
tage Of the opportunity to have necessary
work done Some of our customers
frankly told us that the work in qnes-
ton should have been done long before.
but that because OF the fact he had 70
be paid for in one lump sum. they felt
they could not bear the immediate ex-
pense OF having the work done. But by
cur system this was made possible
through the deferred payment play.
which makes Il possible TO pay in small
amounts scattered over a long period OF
time.
