AL 2331 SATURDAY EVENING, States Fuel Administration, of the needs of the Allies. With the thou sands of motortrucks that have been bought and are now coming forward in fleets; and the thousands of aero planes now in course of delivery, the needs of the Allies will increase tre mendously. It is imperative for the individual owner, if he is to get gas oline in the future'at all, to be ever mindful of extravagant use and.pos- Hiblo waste and to uso every effort to save in the essential operation of the commercial vehicle; whilst for the pasenger car, its use should be confined to a reasonable, thrifty en joyment if used in any way that could be. classed as nonessential. Practice conservation as an act of pure patriotism, that the supply of gasoline and oils may meet all de mands. Coming now to tires; the govern ment demand for cotton ducks has made It necessary for the mills to Set aside a large portion of their equip ment for government needs, and there is now a rumor of threatened commandeering of the cotton sup ply. The quantity of cotton and cot ton fabrics suitable for tire construc- tion hVs been heavily curtailed which has already resulted in a de creased production of tires and high er prices. The demand of the gov ernment for a large part of the pro duction of pneumatic tires for. am bulance and other fast service great ly reduces the supply of tires for seneral use. it is. extremely prob able that still higher prices will ob tain, as stocks are bound to suffer rapid depletion under normal de mand. the wise, thrifty, economical and patriotic owner should be prompted to do all the things necessary to get the utmost in mileage from tire equipment To do so, carry proper air pressure at all times, keep the pressure up by constant attention, daily gauging is not too often. This watchfulness Will prevent many blowouts, by prevent ing stone bruising. It is a fact that a hard tire will rise and ride over an obstruction while & soft tire may be indented and the rupture of a single thread will spread until a blowout will occur. Often the owner is in doubt as to the cause, be cause the injury was not severe enough to cause the blowout when originally received. Soft tires waste gasoline and cause abnormal wear on the treads, as a greater portion of the tread is on the ground and more power is necessary to propel the car. Soft tires weaken the side walls as the tire assumes an ab normal shape and often cause the tread to loosen from the carcass, and many authorities hold to the opinion that the tread on a soft tire cuts from contact with small stones more readily than does the hard, properly-inflated tire. If a tire is always run under proper inflation presure, and made of standard ma terials, it is reasonable to presume that if can be economically given a new tread; Just as a shoe may be half soled. Why waste a valuable cotton carcass when it can be con served, retreaded, and thus do dou ble service and practically cut down tire cost by twenty-five per cent. In Rhops properly equipped and with skilled operators, a retread of the highest class approximates but one half the cost of a new tire. But as retreading is ain to manufacturing the owner should exercise discretion in selecting the shop to which he en trusts his now valuable tire carcas. In the use of the tire of "cord" con struction with its higher investment cost, now rapidly coming into gen eral use, • retreading is especially economical and in line with thrifty, judicious conservation. There is prevalent an alarming disregard as-to inner tube cost. The inner tube is the burden bearer ot the car and load in pneumatic tired equipment. The owner talks of and buys "tires;" the manufacturer more frequently calls them "castings;" while our foreign users more com monly call them "envelopes." This Quotation is used to impress on you the fact that you really ride on the air in the inner tube, thu3 one can see al! the more reason for proper inflation so as to avoid tire trou bles previously referred to as -.veil ns 'he annoying tube "pinoV Sparc tubes should be carried in proper bags or cases to prevent oil gctlint, on them and to prevent possible chafing on the folded edges whicti greatly weakens the tube in spots In changing tubes do not neglect a proper application of mica or soap stone to allow the tube to properly .'eat itself inside the tire as i.; is inflated. Always use the floating strip to keep the tube from conta?: with the steel rim of the wheel and to prevent forcing the tube under the bead of the tire and a conse quent annoying "pinch." Tubes are more often repaired than tires. The puncture demands attention In the tube, while it is often neglected or unnecessary in the tire. If you are not an expert on rubber, do not dis card a tube on age alone. Submit it to the inspection of a competent specialist and be guided by his opin ion, and get the most you can from it. Keep the thought of conservation uppermost in your everyday use of your car. whether it be fuel, tires or general wear and tear of the car as a who!** "A stitch in time saves nine" as the old saying goes, and thrifty conservation in all the com ponent parts of the motor car will play an important part in the elmi nation of the fiun.

Oil Preparation Protects Motor Cars on Driveways During the automobile shows throughout the country, now drawing to a close, many visitors who ad mired the spick-and-spun beauty of the Paige Larchmont and other mem bers of the Paige family were much surprised to learn that—ln many in stances—the cars had been driven from the factory to their show des tination. Not a mark or blemish of the minutest kind marred the origi nal beauty of the cars, which had been driven through slush and mud hundreds of miles over the worst pos sible roads. The wondering visitors were informed that the secret of the matter "was very simple, merely the application of a well-known product —white paraffin oil. As the Paige, like many of the other big factories, has been doing its utmost to help the Government relieve the freight congestion by de veloping the driveaway to its utmost possibilities, the employment of some means of protecting the glossy new bodies of the cars was inevitable. White paraffin oil serves this pur pose admirably. Purchased at any drug store, a gallon of it when ap plied with a cloth covers the body of any car. If, however, it is sprayed on—as is done at the factories be fore a driveaway—a gallon will be sufficient for four cars. The spray of white paraffin oil forms a protecting film over the body of the car and catches the mud and dirt of all kinds which can no longer be absorbed by the body fin ish. When the car reaches its des tination a thorough washing is suf ficient to remove all signs of travel, the oil causing the dirt to scale off. A thorough cleansing with warm water and a good car soap, a cold douche and a rubdown with a pol ishing chamois leave the body of the car as fresh and unscathed as when it left the hands of Its makers. The success of this treatment has done much to enthuse dealers over the drive-away idea and they are now flocking to the factories and driving their cars away by the hun dreds.
