SOW -LEGGED WHEELS,
One of the very surest way to scrub
out your automobile tires in record
timeis to permit your wheels to get
out of alignment.
There area number of conditions
which will tend to throw a wheel gut
of line; and the great trouble is that
the driver sits where he cannot see his
wheels when the car is in motion and
so may not realize just what the
trouble is until much damage has
been done. If a motor -driven vehicle.
is run up 'against a curb so that the
immovable stone construction is con-
siderable, somthing has to give, and
that something is naturally the part
which holds the wheel in place. Care-
less driving over rough roads deeply
indented with ruts is also liable to
throw a sudden strain on to some rod
or bearing that will wrench a wheel
outo f dine. A driver should realize
this and be particular to drive care-
fully, not permitting one wheel to
drop into a rut suddenly, but, if pos-
sible, to steer the vehicle so that all
four wheels will have a fairly smooth
or level surface to pass over, or one
or two wheels will take the change
of surface necessary very gradually.
Sometimes a slight accident, or a
sudden strain caused by the force of a
heavy blow or impact, or the careless
rounding of curves, or descending
steep, rough hills at a high speed will
bend an axle, knuckle or steering rod.
When demountable rims are used
precaution must be taken to see that
the rims are put on perfectly straight,
for if they are carelessly placed the
tire must take unnecessary diagonal
grindand wear.
INCREASING LIFE OF SPRINGS.
If you would increase the- life of
the springs on your car, take them
apart at least' once a year sand place -”
graphite between the leaves. This will
keep them flexible and will afford the
car the protection for' which the
springs were designed, instead of
them getting rusty and stiffening'
very perceptibly. r
ELIMINATION OF VIBRATION
LENGTHENS LIFE 09' CAR '
The number of forms of vibration
on a motor car are legion. Some of
them can be eliminated; others can
only be lessened; `most of them are
unplgasant and some are destructive.
1
If vibration ' could be eliminated en-
tirely, the. car's life would be consider-
ably lengthened. To dream of such a
thing, however, would be like chasing
rainbows; interesting perhaps, but
with no chance of success. The (Mect,
then, of both the designer and the
user is to geep unnecessary vibrations
on the blacklist.
KEEP BATTERY. UPRIGHT.
Always keep the battery in a ver-
tical position in taking it out or re-
placing it in the sar. Sediment may
be in the bottom of the jars, and tip-
ping,i:hem may cause it to get between
the places and short-circuit them.
TIRE SPREADERS .OF WOOD.
Tire spreaders cap be made of vari-
ous sizes to meet the demands of the
tire repair shop. For this purpose
wood will serve best, maple being pre-
ferred. These shouldbe about ten
inches long, three inches wide and
one inch thick. The step-down for
various tire sizes man be made to any
length that may be found convenient
for the work.
Airplanes Should be Equipped
With Radio Sets.
The army aerial world tour will be
attempted without the use of radio ex-
cerpt on the last leg, across the Atlan-
tic' from Huil, England, due to the con-
servation of weight, the chief of the
army air service has announced.
Radio experts andsome fliers be-
lieve that this is an unfortunate de-
cision, since through the use of radio
in connection with aviation greater as-
surance of successful fiighte and the
safety of pilots has resulted generally.
But the projectors of the flight do not
consider radio essential.
Weather conditions; orders'. and
emergency craps can be reoeived im-
mediately by pilots • on radio equipped
craft, and they in turn can send mes-
sages as to progress', ' position and
changes in routes, as well as requests
for assistance, posdtion reports and de -
aired information.
One plane, it is now planned, will be
equipped with a transmitter and 'a.re-
ceiver set at Hull, England,.. but what
would happen if that plane •should
crash. is not announced. The radio
telegraph n i
grap tra smt,tt ng self is a 200.
watt nonsynchronous rotary spark
with a plane to ground range of about
a hundred miles. The antenna will be
a singleweighted trailing wire, mad
thewhole suet will weigh approximate-
ly 100 pounds. Six hundred metres
will be the wave used.
A superheteroyne receiving set will
also be carried- in the communication
plane, but no radio oomplass. The
transmitting set is capa'ble of beiing
transferred to another.plane if neoes'-
sary. Spares and some replecesnent
apparatus will be carried across the
Atlantie.

Rarely, rarely cornea thou,
Spirit of delight!
Wherefore hast thou left me now
Many a day and night?
Many a weary night and clay
'Tis since thou art fled away.
How shall ever one like me
Win thee back again?
With the joyous and the free
Thou wilt scoff at pain.
Spirit false! thou hast forgot-
All but those who need thee not.
I love snow and all the forms
Of the radiant frost;
I lave waves, and winds, and 'storms,
Eveythfng almost
Which is Nature's., and may be
Untainted by man's misery.
I love tranquil solitude,
And such moiety
As is' quiet, wise and good;
Between thee and me
What differenoe? but thou dost :pos-
sess,
The thing's i -seek, not lone then] less.
I' love Love—though he has wings,
And like light can .flee,
But above all other things,
Spirit, I love thee—
Thou are love and life!. 0 come!•
Make once more my heart they home!
—Percy Byisshe Shelley.
"He Refused to Quit."
On the campus of one of the large
universities in 'the Middle West of the
United States a monument has 'beet'
set in honor of one of the students who
died fighting in France. On it is this
simple but appealing inscription: "He
played on the scrub three years; he
refused to quit."
Day after day the boy—Hanson. was
his name—went out and played with
the "scrubs" to help .the "varsity."
Then came the summons* to play a
"sterner game en the fields of France,
and he took his plane.
On the battlefield he exhibited the
earns fidelity as on the football field.
One day his officer celled for volun-
teers for a hazardous bit of scouting.
Hanson went out with the party but
he never returned. And to -day that
little inscription en the monumient re-
oalls to . the hurrying students the
story of a man who refused to quit.
"He refused • to quit!" What finer
tribute can be given to any man?.
When Jesus- named for .his disciples
those qualities which he regarded as
most essential in a Christian disciple
he put at the head of the Iist steadi-
ness; and heclosed his discourse with
these solemn words ' that carry the
same sense, "No man, having put kis
hand to the plough and looking back,
is fit for the kingdom of God."

Prevention • of Losses Among Chicks
By S. W. Knipe
Recent figures show •that there are
only about 55 chicks raised out of
every 100 hatched, and this is on
farms where there exists a better aver-
age of poultry conditions,. Many
poultry raisers try to reduce their loss
by "doctoring", sick and weakly chicks.'
They lose sight of the fact that for
the previous 9 or 10.in nths the stock
these chicks were raised from had -not
the care and attention necessary to
produce sturdy chickens, and so care
of breeding stock results .in chicks'
hatched with weak constitutions, un-
able to live under ordinary farm con-
ditions. A strong, • vigorous chicken,
with 'good brooding system, clean and
proper feeding, should be easily raised
to •maturity. The greatest loss is ow-
ing to lack of vitality; which may be
caused by poor 'parent stock, poor
care of eggs. before :they are set, or
poor incubation. On farms, where the
fowl are allowed to forage for them-
selves most of theyear, there are
many mistakes made in breeding, the
fault often being due to both male and
female. The males, often late hatched,
lack vigor and are small in size. Be.
cause such birds give a high percent-
age of fertility in eggs does by no
meths warrant the assumption that
the chick's hatched will -be < sturdy.
Good hens are almost as important' as
good males. For best results it is not
wise 'to mate the 'entire .flock, better
pick out only the best females and
mate them
to the best males procur-
able.
u
roe r-
able. Never mate cockerels and pul-
lets. Never use hens which have been
sick and out of condition. Bowel trou-
ble and diarrhoea are sometimes
,caused by infection of the eggs,.there-
fore the nedessity of not breeding from
any birds thus infected. The best of
eggs inay be ruined' by faulty incuba-
tion, not only artificial, but when
broody hen is used.. If the hen is
-flighty she should not be used. Nests
should be in a place easly accessible,
where water and food are conveniently
obtained. Incubator chicks are gist
as strong as hen hatched if they are
properly hatched.. . Too high or too
low a temperature, not enough fresh
air, and wrong ]moisture conditions,
are the most common 'faults of weak
chicks from artificial incubation. Do
away with these causes and you hatch
good, vigorous, healthy chicks. Good
incubators are usually obtained by
poultry raisers,' yet a great number of
these peoplemake the "penny wise" and
pound foolish" mistake of thinking
they can make a brooder at home quite
good enough to brood the small .num-
ber of chicks they raise. Too often
these home-made brooders do not keep
the proper temperature nor supply the
ventilation necessary. Again, if the.
brooding system is too entail for num-
ber of chickens hatched there is apt
to be "crowding," causing loss through.
suffocation, Coops without doors for
hen -hatched chicks often result in
chilling the little birds, Chills usually
bring along bowel tro•uble.'
The close confinement of baby chicks
is often Claimed to cause leg -weakness,
something which rarely- Is seen in
chicks which are allowed on outside
run, ever for a few minutes, after they
are about a week old. ' Of course, in
gtor
myor wet weather this is impos-
sable, therefore for such occasions
keep' sand or fine litter oai the floor.
Feed grain in dry litter to induce ex-
ercise. Keep brooder house well 'vele
dieted. Supply green feed such as
sprolttecl oats, lettuce, green alfalfa or.
clover cuttings,.
No matter how brooded the chickens
must be kept free from vermin, must
be kept dry, must have plenty of exer-
cise, and small birds Should not be
allowed to run with half-grown ones,
as the little chaps (don't have a chance
to get the proper amount of food if

not feed chicks before they are 48.
hours old. The yolk of the egg pro-
vides food for at least that length 'of•
time. 'Additional food is over -loading

troubles.

for the great loss of chicks is "pre-
vention." "Eternal vigilance" is ..the
price which must be paid; . to reduoo
the loss to a minimum. Careful feed

Deal Promptly With First •
Offence.
A certain municipal council was
asked to favor a Juvenile Court to
deal with youthful delinquents, and
they opposed this on the ground that
the Police',112agistrate was very len-
ient:with boys and dismissed most of
them :with, a warning. Had they
known it the councillors were advanc-
ing the very ,argument: that proved
the need of a specialist in preventive
social 'work. Magistrates who simply,
say "go away and be a good boy," and
then forget all about the ;lad until he
comes up a second, third, and fourth
time, are not helping to reform his
character. The first offence is an in-
dication of moral -disease and should
receive prompt treatment, the patient
being kept under observation until
the disease,., is entirely eradicated.. It
is the inefficient method of dealing
with first offenders that encourages
boys to continue In wrong doing until,
they have passed -the stage where they
can be influenced by moral considera-
tions. In no. department' of social or
business activity is it more important
that there should be a specialist than
in dealing with the youth when first
starting out on 'a career of wrong
doing.—J. J. Kelso.
How Not to Eat.
Table manners in the seventeenth
century must have stood; in need • of
considerable improvement, if we may
take seriously the advice that Hannah
Wooley gave'to.young ladies in 1675.
It must be adniiltted that 'Miss Wogley
"wield„ed'a trenchant pen."
"Gentlewomen discover not by any
ravenous gestureyour•angry appetite.
nor fix your eyes too greedily on the
meat before you,. as. if you woliiri de-
vour more that way than your throat
would swallow. In carving avoid elop-
ing your fingers' in yews , mouth and
licidng them. after you have burnt
them. Close your Lipa when you eat
and do not simack like a pig, Fill not
your mouth so full that your cheeks
shall swell like a pair of Scotch bag-
pipes. It de very uncomely to drink so
large a;dxlaught that your breath is al-
mosst gone and you are forced to blow
strongly to recover yourself."
A brave man, were he seven times a
king, is but a brave man's peer.
If I were asked to name the three
things which were retarding civiliza-
tion most, I should 'say: ignorance,
self-indulgence and selfishness. -0. S.
