Tire Repairs Should Be
Made Permanent Cures

Amateur tire patching ruins thou
sands Of automobile tires each year.
1t is common practice among auto
mobile owners when receiving cut
or puncture in a tire to insert patch
on the inside of the casing at the
point of injury, thinking that the
damage is permanently repaired Such
a repair will in time ruin any tire.
1t is good practice to apply patches
in such cases, but tire sleeve should
always be placed on the outside of
the tire opposite the patched portion
at the same time. The sleeve serves
to bind the tire, hold the torn and in
jured parts OF the fabric in place and
prevent further chatting and rupture.
The tire sleeve and patch are mere
ly first aid" appliances and should
- removed at the earliest possible
moment. 1t will pay motorists to
drive to the nearest repair man i'm
mediately after the injury occurs.
If allowed to run without repair, every
time the wheel makes revolution the
tire quickens its pace toward the
scrap heap.

Spraying or busting to
Control Harmful Worms

The tomato fruitworm, also known
as the bollworm (not boil weeviD Of
cotton and the corn earworm, causes
heavy losses Of early tomatoes in the
Southern states by eating into the
fruit and destroying it's market value,
says the United States Department
Of Agriculture.
A large amount of damage can be
prevented by either spraying or dust
ing the tomato fruits with an arsen-
ical. If a spray is desirable, use two
pounds of lead arsenate to fifty gal
Ions of water or bordeaux mixture
The dust should be used at the rate
of one pound of lead arsenate to five
pounds of hydrated lime or one pound
of paris green to twenty pounds Of
hydrated lime. Calcium arsenate can
be used at the rate of one pound to
five pounds Of hydrated lime. The
first spraying or busting should be
applied when the earliest tomato
fruits are beginning to form or when
the first worm damage is noticed and
the arsenical applications should be
repeated at weekly intervals for about
seven weeks. All sprayed fruit should
be thoroughly wiped before it is mar
keted or consumed.

Uninterrupted Supply of
Fuel in Carburetor

It sometimes happens on cars where
fuel is fed by pressure supplied by the
exhaust gases that 1t becomes increas-
creasingly difficult to maintain the
pressure at the requisite figure. AS a
rule pressure does not drop quickly,
but seems gradually to ooze away. The
first thing to do in a case Of this kind
is to examine the filler cap of the tank.
A leather or rubber gasket is used
at this point, and often the rubber be-
comes spOngy or the leather gets hard
and caked, or a small bit of foreign
matter may have lodged between the
cap and its seat. On the other hand,
it sometimes occurs that the pressure
in the system is built up to point
where the small valve operated by
the carburetor float will be unable to
restrain the fuel and flooding of the
instrument will result. AS a rule a
pressure of one and half pounds Is
ample to insure an uninterrupted sup
ply of fuel in the carburetor.

SUGGESTIONS TO
AID TIRE OWNER
Much Loss Caused Because
Motorist and Repairman
Fail to Inspect

The stretch your rubber campaign"
initiated by Secretary Of Commerce
Herbert Hoover, received instant sup
port from leading associations in the
automobile trade and among the mo-
toring public. In line with this policy
the Chicago Motor club, in recent
bulletin, "More Tire Miles Through
Management" makes number of
suggestions that will aid the car own
er to combat the high prices which
have been established by Great Brit
aims rubber monopoly.
4 Thousands Of tires are ruined be-
cause the repairer and the motorist
fail to inspect the inside of casing
for breaks, nails and pieces Of glass;"
says the bulletin. Frequently some
piece of foreign matter works it's way
through the shoe, but it cannot be seen
by the eye. The repairer should in
pect the casing with his fingers.
Inspect the Tread.
after a tube has been repaired, it
Is also advisable to inspect the thread
for breaks and foreign matter. What
ever the motorist extracts from these
breaks In the way of glass, tacks, or
nails, is insurance against trouble.
1t is advisable to fill these breaks
with rubber putty to prevent the ac-
emulation of additional breeders of
punctures.
another source of trouble comes
from wheels out of alignment. The mo-
torist who wants to get the greatest
possible mileage out of his tires will
see that his front wheels are in per-
feet alignment, he will keep out of
car tracks, he will keep his spare
tire covered, and he will change his
rear tires to the front wheels before
the tread is worn down.
Trouble With Novice
u "Still another source of undue tire
wear occurs when the novice driver
uses his car in traffic. He uses his
brakes too much, causing the rubber to
slide on the pavement. The motorist
who seeks to cut the cost of his tire
bills throttles down when he sees that
he must come to stop in traffic,
and brings his car to standing posi-
ton withlittle wear on tires or brakes.
eff motorists will watch their tire
wear as closely as they watch their
gas consumption" concludes the bull
letin, millions of dollars would be
saved in this country"

Tomato Willis Prevented
With Resistant Strains

The willis of tomatoes, of which
three forms are known, are caused by
moldlike fungi or by bacteria, which
live in the soil and infect the plants
through their roots. Whiting and vel
lowing leaves indicate the presence Of
these diseases.
Fusarium wilt, the form most wide
~ distributed, causes the plants to
wilt and die slowly, while bacterial
wilt is frequently more prompt in its
action. Efforts should be directed to
the prevention rather than to the
cure of these diseases. The planting
of wilt resistant strains or varieties
is advisable in order to control the
Fusarium wilt. A variety of tomato
known as Norton is highly resistant
to Fusarium and well adapted to sec
lions where the disease Is prevalent
Fusarium wilt should not be con-
fused with another tomato disease
prevalent in Rocky Mountain and
Pacific Coast regions and variously
known as blight, western blight and
western yellow blight. This disease
and Fusarium wilt frequently occur
in the same fields. The Norton tomato
is resistant to the Fusarium wilt but
varieties markedly resistant to west
ern yellow blight have not yet been
developed.

w-Growing Fruits
Require Protection
Burning Oil in Heaters Has
Proven Satisfactory.

prepared by the United States Department
fs. Of Agricu1ture.)
Burning fuel oil In lard pail neat
ers has proved a successful meth
cd of obtaining a rise in temperature
on the cranberry Dogs near the mouth
of the Columbia river in Washington.
Local weather bureau officials as
sisted in making test of the efficien-
cy Of these heaters for the purpose.
The flooding of the bogs for frost pro-
lection as is done in Wisconsin ana
the Atlantic coast cranberry sections
is not practicable in Washington.
The heaters are set on metal tripods
forced several inches into the ground
so that the strong winds which some
times blow in this district cannot over
turn them. Forty ten-quart lard pail
heaters were used on a half-acre plot.
They were equipped one. night with
"soot-arrester" or spiders" and used
one night without them.
The frost on the two nights of the
test caused about Is per cent damage
in a check plot 300 feet distant, not
equipped with heaters. There was no
damage in the test plot. Both plots
were similarly situated with regard
to topography and atmospheric con-
ditions. The fuel Oil burned cost
cents a gallon in barrel lots, and the
cost of the heating was SO cents an
acre per hour with the soot-arresters
in place. Without them the cost was
So per acre per hour.
1t Is believed by the weather bu-
reau men who made the test that sim
liar good results can be secured in
protecting other low-growing crops
such as Strawberries, tomatoes and
potatoes.

Windbreaks to Protect
the Crops and Orchard

That windbreaks are, as whole,
an asset, particularly in regions with
little rainfall and where strong, dry
ing winds are frequent, is shown by
studies made by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. Windbreaks
protect grain crops and orchards from
mechanical injury by the wind, reduce
evaporation of moisture from the soil,
protect farm buildings from the ex-
tremes of winter and summer weather,
and may also be source of wood for
farm use or sale. The ideal wind
break would have the tallest trees
planted in the central rows; on either
side rows of shorter trees; and out
side of these, low bushes or cedars.
