THE NATION'S FREIGHT CAR
i In Rubber While Stretched, It I
i Indication That Tuba Haa
E
Outlived Usefulness;
"How am I to know when an Inner
1 tube Is 'done,' Is a question I am ask
j ed repeatedly," declares a tire dealer.
"It Is the natural Inquiry of a tire
! user who has several repairs made on
I his tubes and wishes to obtain the
I utmost mileage from them, yet wants
i to avoid the Inconvenience of .making
a tire change on the road, due to tire
J trouble.
I "la these times when economy Is
the order of the day, a tire user hold
I log an old tube la his hand, eun well
I afford to ponder a minute before cast
ing It aside as through.'
"It Is difficult sometimes to deter
mine just when a tube Is unfit for
further service. However, porosity In
a tube usually Indicates that it has
attained its three score and ten. In
this stage of use, very small cracks
can be observed In the rubber If It Is
stretched nnd examined carefully.
The next development Is splitting
when the olr pressure becomes too
great for the tube to benr.
"If the rubber In a tube Is live' It
may successfully bear as many patch
es as a beggar's coat But due care
must be exercised In the vuleuulza
tlon of the patch to the tube, thut too
large a portion of the tube around
the pntch Is not cured. If portions of
the tube have been overcured In patch
ing operations, disaster Is sure to fol
low. "I believe thnt the lack of proper
care of the tube is responsible for
most of the troubles tire users ex
perience. The observance of a few
precautions would help wonderfully to
eliminate these troubles.
"The absence of sufficient talc be
tween casing nnd tube allows the gen
eration of heat which vulcanizes the
tube to the fabric of the casing. Then
when you attempt to remove It, It
tears.
"Much tube splitting is occasioned
by the slipping of the tube between
the casing nnd tho rim, which soon
results In a 'pinch.' The remedy Is
careful applying.
"It seems to me that the whole
problem of obtnlnlng maximum tube
mileage resolves Itself Into the sim
ple matter of taking care of it properly."

KEEP TOOLS FROM RUSTING
Mixture of Vaseline and Gum Camphor
Used as Coating Will Prove
Satisfactory.
An excellent method of preventing
tools getting rusty Is to give them a
coating of vaseline In which a little
gum camphor has been mixed, after
which the mixture is melted over a
slow fire. The coating should be ap
plied to the tool with a soft rag.

"Road and traffic' laws vary in dif
foruiit localities, says P. O. Delano of
the Bulein Automobile Co., local dealer
in Chevrolet passenger ears and trucks.
It is, therefore, impossible to let down
a complete list of rules which may be
followed this Biimme when touring all
purts of the country. The following are
some of the rales which are practically
universal in all parts of the United
States.
"In meeting a verhicle going in an
opposite direction " to the right.
"Always Btop with the right ido of
tho cur next to the curb. If it is neces
sary to turn around ts do this, it should
be done.
"Never turn around or turn off onto
another road without holding out your
lu. ml to denote your intention.
'Mover eater utwn street car tracks
without making sure that no ear is di-
rtlv hithimt v.tii nn mutter how mire
'you feel, look and ace.
"Do not cross the street or steam
railroad tracks withdut making sure
that it is absolutely safe to do to.
"In crowded tratfie do not appiv tho
brutes suddenly unless it is absolutely
necessary, it may be that the vcuicie
following, ctmnot stop as quickly as you
eiwu. If this is the cam.', a collision is
sure to result.
"On wet asphalt or slippery mads do
not apply the brakes suddenly unless ab
solutely necessary. If the breaks are
applied suddenly jiuder those condition
a bad skid is sure to rtoult.
"When you have reached a point
i when you intend turning or stopping, al
ways Biakp your inteution knows to the
driver following before you reach that
point.
"Wbca you intend stopping, or. in
crowded truffic, slow up, always make
your intention knows to the driver in
your rear by holding your arm out from
the tide of the tar in horizontal poai-
tiuu." ' (
CET ABICYCLE
The man who said. "The world fan
toever repay the debt it owes the bi
ycle," gave birth to a statement that
carries with it a tremendous amount of
truth, for the bicycle has been the
world's greatest single agency lor bet
ter health.
There is a story of a mig who Is one
of America's most distinguished eduea
tors, a man who is more than four -score
ve&rs of age, who makes it a prr.etice of
woing with his wife far a bicycle ride
every morning before breakfast. That
this has kelped to kop him young ia
iliuM rated ia an episode that he delights
to telL
One morning when he and hit wife
were wheeling up to the kitehea door in
the gratifying aoiselew fashion of the
hieyelint, they overheard the eouk sty
I) the waitress. "Isn't it aaout time
the children were getting back for
breakfast?"
It is tho bicycle that is keeping alive
in those elderly (in years only) persons
that caused their cook to make the re
mark she did. Certainly, to the bicyclo
may be ascribed in large measure the
viifor that this eminent man displays.
Tho credit man of a large manufactur
ing concern fult himself slipping. Jiuth
er than a joy, his work daily grew to
be a "rater irritation. IIo was mani
festing smptoms of being a nervous
wreck. He saw a doctor.
"Lack of exercise, that's all," said
tho physician. "Get a bicycle. I al
ways recommend that as being the beat
prescription for fellows like you in my
entire list of cures."
BICYCLE WEEK MAY 3.
The Vnited Cycle Trade Directorate
have set aside the dates of May 3rd to
10th as bicycle week, which will be cele
brated all over the Vnited States. Spe
cial sales campaigns nnd races will be
pat on to stimulate the sale of bicycles.
