We've been nil over the west before and the scenery didn't attract us. Certainly the ronds hold no appeal. I've never been east of Detroit and would like to see New York, but until they have auto camps I'll spend my vacation in the west." N It's tho same with all of them. They don't stop at a garage and ask yro best ; route to such and such a place. They ! look on the wall and read the list of ("swell" auto camps, or they ask their i camping neighbor what such and such ;a city has in auto tourist accommoda tions. And the "accommodations" would i open the eyes -of the eastern tourist. I All of the parks have jtroperly drained i camping grounds, running water, eov i ered dining shelters, open-air ovens land stoves with firewood provided and ) an attendant who sees that you- are properly placed. ( I Camps Are l-Mrst Class.

You pay for nothing ; except your supplies, and you are wel : come to stay as long as you like. ; And it is not because it is the ! "cheap" way to tour that auto camp ing has jumped into popularity. It is j the comfortable -way and the pleasant iway. In any western auto park one I will find beautiful car3 of the most j expensive makes with trailers contain ing luxurious camp equipment parted among the camping parties who start out with a tent and a few cooking utensils in the family flivver.

Riloy. local resident. as he displayed two bean pods on one stem. One pod was 3t 1-4 inches long and the other 33 3-4 inches in length. And Mr. Riley does not claim to he a champion bean raiser. ' ft THE next time a friend comes to you all excited about some i wonderful tire bargain ask him how much value he ought to get for each dollar of tire money. It's astonishing that any car owner today should not know all the tire service he is entitled to. Nor how to check up between the economy of par quality On one hand and big discounts, surplus stocks, discontinued lines and retreads on the ether. For two years U. S Tire makers have been telling the American people all about tires. They. have laid open the tire, business from every angle. They have always led the fight for better tires. . They have consist- LsFn' enjly maintained quality first standards with certain economy for the tire buyer. . x They have established 92 Factory Branches all-over the country. Perfecting U. S. distri bution so that you get a fresh, live tire every time you buy a U.S. Tire. So when a man once decides on U. S. Tires he knows what he is getting in quality service economy. - In support of his own judg ment he gets the pledged word ahd reputatiort of the largest and most successful tire concern in -the world.

Saturn And Its Rings Now let us turn aside from Jupiter ana taKe a look at Saturn, which Is the most wonder-inpirina; of all the Planets. Thoug-h a little less than half Die size of the Jovian globe, it Is six nundred times as tilgr as the Earth. Its material, however. Is only half as ne.ivy as mat ot which Jupiter is com posed, relatively to volume, and thus Hie total wclsht of Saturn Is but one hundred times as jjrrat, as that of the 0H1 nn which we dwell. Salurn, In fact, Jtceiphs little more than tn o-ihirds as much as a jttlobe of walcr of eijuiil Hize. ,A solid sphiro of equal siz and weight would float on JJut unquestionably Die planet is largely jmnous -1 Iioiir Ii quite Con ceivably the core of its mlithty bulk, may be ns danse as any materials that SO to compose the Karth. , Saturn Is certainly very hot, but not hot cnouKhto give for'h light of its own. IJk.- the other plane!, t hln merely by rrnr:cd suniUM. When viewed through the telescope, tho globe shows quite black whee the shadow of Its ring Is cast upon It; which would not be the case if it re tained any of its original luminosity. Since time Immemorial the ring of Saturn has been to stargases a mar vel and a puzzle. As a matter of fact, it has throo rlnps, the outer one be ing 11,846 miles wide, with an ex-' ternal diameter of 173,118 miles. In side of. this is a second ring 17,181 miles wide and 145,828 miles In di ameter; and further Inside Is tho so- called "crepe riruj," 11,683 miles in breadth. Between the inner edge of tne, crepe ring and the ball of the Planet Is a space 1,730 miles wide. , Those figures (given br Prof. T. .T J. See, of the U. S. Naval Observatory) convey a sufficient impression of Im mensity. But whatt Is to be said about the -nature of these rings l-the mate rial or wntcti they are composed? Hintrs Of Star Dust Only within very recent years have the astronomers found an answer to this question. Thry say that beyond a upuot tno rings are composed of particles of meteoric matter slur auot it might be called which revolve about the planet In obedience to the same jaw that Kov.trns all natollltcs. l'trhaps tho tiniis of Salurn. will some day coalesce inlo moons, of the hitler, ono might think, he already Immwcssc a KuUirient numtfer. Ue has ciclit. one of tlitin. Titan, Is much biBKcr than our moon, being S.3uu' miles In diameter. The others are lapetus (1.SD0 mile), Rhea (1,200 miles), Mimas (i0 miles), Dion ana Telliyi (earn too miles), Rni) i;n,.,. I-Mlitn snd Hypericin, very little fellows. Beyond A Gap Of Space The four little planets Meroury, Venus, Earth and Mars are relatively close to the Sun. We are 93,009,00(1 miles distant from that, luminary Jlarg half. again as far away. Theo comes a great gap of empty epacebe," fore Jupiter, the innermost of the four outer planets, is reached. As already stated, the Jovian orb, la more than live .times as far from, the sun as we are. .. . T But those tour outer, planets ar the giants, the really worthwhile m'embers of the Sun's family. Uranus, 85,000 miles in diameter, is more than sixty times the size of tha Earth- Neptune is one hundred times as hi us our own globe, or thereabouts... Been from Uranus, the Sun looks only one 400th as large as It does to u. It is a hot and vaporous planet. the bulk 'of It In a seml-llquld state solid perhaps In the middle, but with. no permanent consistency at or near the surface. On Uranus the Sun rise's In the west and sets in the east. It four little mens Ariel, UmbrleC TW tenia and Otieron rise In tha north and set in the south. As it makes lta long Journey around the Sun, the lat ter shines almost perpendicularly first upon one pole and then upon the oth er. Measured, by our time standard, forty years of continuous daylight are followed by forty years of tinlnter. rupt-d night. Neptune Is nearly J.000 million miles distant from the Sun. It Is fbV outermost of all the planets, occupy lug the remotest frontier of the Hnii. System, Like Uranus, It Is hot and vaporous, and It has about th earn denElty. .,...11 What Is to be th future tit fhsaCea four giant woflds, compare wits) which the four planets ot th Innol eroup are mere pigmies?
