Know eurely that there is a good
ype brake lining, also that it is prop-
rly installed. Some linings are too
oft and some are too thick. They
my easily become matted and are apt
seneed constant adjustment. The best
Mugs are usually woven with plenty
f asbestos and copper wires. ,
It usually takes a good „auto
ine-
hania to properly install brake lin-
igs. It is necessary that the linings
e adequately stretched to avoid
/Tinkling. Also the rivets must be
Toperly sunk, so the metal of the
ivets will not score .the brake drum,
hereby causing the brakes to fail to,
old as they should.
AVOID SQUEAKING BRAKES.
Squeaking brakes are a nuisance
rhich can be avoided by proper ad-
astment. This annoyance can often
e .stopped by removing the :wheels
nd roughening the brake lining with
file, The brake mechanism should
e wiped off and oiled- once every 500
riles of driving.
Many accidents are due to faulty
djustment er apelication of brakes,
ensequently it is the duty of every
ar owner to make a systematic brake
ispection regularly. For instance, the
?se of so small an instrument as a
'otter pin may lead to• serious ac -
dent.

them gut unnecessarily and absorbs
a lot of the power of the engine. Nor
should they be too loose for then they
will not act...qua:lay enough to avoid
danger. On the propeller shaft brake
• there is a nut on the brakeband which
can be adjusted to make the bralteS
just the proper tightness. The rod
connecting the pedal to the brake can
be turned either to the right or to the
left to make it the right length for
efficient use of the brake.
ADJUSTMENT 01' EQUALIZER,
Regarding. an axle or wheel drum
brake where an equalizer is used, ap-
ply the'brake with the car jacked up.
Adjust the equalizer until it is parallel
with the axle, then tighten or loosen
the adjusting nut on the 'beakebands.
On the internal type of brake it may
be necessary to remove the wheels, ad-
just the cam plates and adjusting nuts
and equalize the length of the brake
rods. Where four brakes are employ-
ed, all four wheels should be jacked
clear of the ground and adjustment
made at each individual wheel.
When in doubt as to. whether eaeh
brake is doing its share of the work,
if there are only two of them, jack up
the rear wheels and apply the brakes
far enough so that it is just possible
to turn one wheel by hand. Then ad-
just the brake on the other wheel so
that the same amount of. energy ig
required to turn that wheel by .hand.
When four brakes are provided the'
other two are adjusted in the same
mariner..
Brake trouble will be avoided by
using this important part of the car
properly. When coming to a stop on a
straightway, close the throttle and
leave the clutch engaged until just be-
fore you come to a stop. This causes
the engine to assist the brakes in
bringing the car to a standstill.
In going down art ordinary hill
leave the cutch engaged and close
down the throttle. But in going down
a steep hill or a moderate hill with a
heavy load, put the- gear into inter-
mediate or low speed at the. top of
the hill and leave the clutch engaged.
Shut off the throttle; it may also be of
help to turn off the ignition switch.
When driving use the brakes as lit-
tle as possible. When an emergency
stop is necessary close the ihrottle
leave the clutch engaged, apply the
foot brake and pull the hand brake if
necessary. Do not lock the wheels
but ,keep them rolling to avoid skid-
ding.

Words With Histories.
When a housewife asks whether the
goods she is buying are cotton or wool-
en, she little thinks, that .originally
theywere one and :the same, for it was
to a woolen fablic ,made M Bristol,
England, that the nacos "Bristol cot-
ton," was Brat applied. ,
Bristlel used, to be the seaport of the
then seat of the woolen trade, the
West of England, and "Bristol cotton,"
a striped cloth, with a long napawhich
could be reshorn where the garment
got shabby, was woven at Bridgewater
and Taunton.
The word "blanket" has a peculiar
origin. In early times family names
often arose from the bearer's occupa-
tion, and for generations a family
named Blanket had been in the woolen
trade and had manufactured white
cloth. It is probable that this trade
gave them their name from "Blanc,"
(white), but it was' this family which
invented the comfortable bed -cover-
ing and their new products were re-
ferred to as' blankets.

WHAT PLACE IS 'THIS?
Signs Should he. Provided to
Inform Travellers of Local
Advantages.
Very soon now the tourist traffic
for the 1925 season will commence.
We should make things as interesting
and attractive as possible for our visi-
tors and also for the many travelling
Canadians who are going to explore
our highways and byways.
How often when motoring into a
cozily situated town or hamlet, we look
around the various buildings for some
indication of the name of the place.
It is probably a very interesting spot
to the passerby and he might like to
remember it particularly. No signs
are in evidence anywhere except those
advertising motor car tires and patent
medicines, and the interest aroused is
!apt to die for want of stimulation.
' There are many ways in which we
might welcome our tourist friends and
• make them aware of our hospitality.
' Place -signs, prominently posted' at the
approaches of the villages, with a few
concrete facts about the nature of the
locality and its commercial and indus-
trial possibilities will add greatly to
the interest •and employment of the
tourist and perhaps very materially
to our country's development eventu-
ally. The wayside market is useful
to the tourist, here he can purchase,
direct from the fernier, dairy produce,
fresh fruits and vegetabks on the cash
and carry system. • What is; better
than a cool glass of buttermilk, too,
on a hot, thirsty drive? The lovely
orchards by our roadsides could be

and the local organization is to do its
share in view of the large amount of
tourist trine expected along the' road,
during the 1925 season. There are
many scenic spots, splendid lakes and

Returning to perennials, we must
not forget the hollyhock, next to the
phlox the most valuable additien to
the garden. These seed themselves
so lavishly that a bed once made is a
bed forever.
Tulips may well be planted in the
garden which is to take care of itself.
They should be set seven inches deep,
and as the bloom each year is pro-
duced by a new bulb which forms at
the base of the old one, they should be
resat every third year, lest they worn
down to such a depth that they will
ultimately disappear.
As tulips are planted at such a depth
it is well to set annuals or perennials
among them. Thus after the tulips
are gone their yellowing foliage will
bo concealed by later flowers.,
Covering should be removed very
early in the spring. The frosts of win-
ter do less harm to the garden thaa do
the early thaws, which draw the
young plants out of the ground to be
destroyed by later frosts.
The plants once fairly started, weed-
ing is the chief eare. This may be
passed by during the busy seasons on
the farm, and this negligence made up
for by more diligent attention at con-
venient dines.
Watering, too, is. important.
Watering should be done heavily or,
not at all.
Unless you can water sufficiently to
sink far into the earth—and a little
excavation after a heavy rain will
show you how bard this is to accomp-

tendency of the seedlings to revert to

It should be divided every three
years., and this again affords new proof
of its,' indestructibility. Most plants.
can be divided only when the bloom is

Phlox Just Won't Give Up.
But phlox may be dug up, the roota

ruthless way and the plants met

Natural Resources Bulletin.
The Natural Resources Intelligence
Service of the Dept. of the Interior at
Ottawa says:—
Spring, from tinie immemorial, has
been "Imown as housecleaning time.
During recent years this period has
developed a popular slogan "clean up
and paint up." This is especially ap-
plicable to the protection and painting
of outside woodwork. Wood, when ex-
posed to the weather without protec-
tion, quickly deteriorates, it bears a
shabby and neglected appearance, and,
in a great majority of cases, is but an
index of the enterprise or carelessness
of the owner.
A statement was made a short time
ago by a prominent lumberman that
unless Canada exercised more care
with her forest resources, the day was
not far distant when we would bei
without our supplies of lumber. While
this statement referred particularly to
the protection of forests, it might, I
with equal force, be applied to the
protection of our buildings, fences,
farm implements, and other equip-
ment into the making of which wood
large,y enters. In the case of the
forests there is the timber only that
is lost, while in the decay through
neglect or carelessness of woodwork
there is a:so the loss of the human
energy that was required in the trans-
formation of the raw materials into
the finished product.
Well painted houses or outbuildings,
wagons, and other equipment create a
feeling of pride in the owner, while
the labor in applying and the expense
of the material, from its preservative
results, are fully warranted. Paint is
also a protection against fires from
without, as, by preventing the curling
and warping of woodwork there is
not the same opportunity for sparks
to lodge.
Canada this season expects many
visitors by rail and motor. They will
in large measure, form their opinions
of the country by outward appear-
ances. Well -painted buildings and the
tidy appearance of the grounds will
naturally create a_ favorable_ opinion
and evidence prosperity. Let us do
our part to advertise Canada as a
home for progressive people.
