Show T'l" mvn?-M- NEWS Cmnada Institutes Bird Sanctuaries With the progress of settlement the Canadian prairies are losing those special characteristics generally asso-ciated with them. Their Isolation, their treelcssness, their lack of social amenities, are becoming things of the past. Tet certain developments need to be regulated. For example, the De-partment of the Interior has Just set aside a number of public shooting grounds, and has added eleven bird sanctuaries to those already estab-lished. These regions contain tho most Important breeding grounds on theAmerlenn continent for wild fowl, which; from time Immemorial, have found In marsh nnd reedy lake food and security.. The advent of civili-zation, with Its attendant draining of swamps, tends to reduce the size of the breezing grounds and this, to-gether with Increased facilities for sport, has reduced the number of birds to on alarming extent, some spe-cies, indeed, being threatened with extinction.

There Is some lit-tle difference of opinion among tire users as to whether the two best tires should be placed on the front wheels or on the rear. One group claims that the best tires should be on the front, to eliminate or minimize the danger of lotting control of the car In case of a blowout while traveling at a high rate of speed. Experience proves that the danger from this source Is negligible and Is In every case tlie fault of the driver In losing his bend. fclllclent operation of a car requires good traction nnd for this reason the best tires should be on the renr wheels. The tires thut are more worn should be on the front wheels. In the case of a new or practically r.ew spare tire this should be used In the following manner: At the end of several thousand miles of driving ex-amine the rear tires and select the one that shows the most 'wear and remove It, replacing It with the spare. Repeat this operation. On new cars where usually there i Are five new tires they may remnln In their original positions until several thousand miles have elapsed, then the front tires should be put on the renr wheels and vice versa. The fifth new tire should have Its regular turn on the car. In chnnglng tires nrnund on the car, the motorist should be certain that the air pressure In one tire corresponds with thnt In the snme tire ou the other wheel. Convenient for AutoUts With every car sold a Paris auto-mobile dealer supplies n pot of special paint and a sprayer, about the size of a fountain pen, so thnt scratches and mars can be touched up at once to keep the body looking new. Pressure for applying the paint Is obtained by blowing through a tube connected with the sprayer. While the prepara-tion Is specially adupted to covering metals, It nlso may be used on fabrics and leather. MACHINE MARKS BUMPS IN ROAD Confirms Belieif Gravel Can Be Smooth as Pavement in Fair Weather. rtecords of the number of bumps In a mile of road are now being kept by the Minnesota highway department, according to a recent bulletin. The record Is made with a "roughmeter," a device attached to an automobile In such ,a manner that when the car ulrlkes a bump which depresses the front springs one Inch, one "point" Is recorded on t ho dial on the Instru-ment panel. Humps may record from of a point to two or three points, Many Bumps Recorded. On a recent test run made by O. L. Klpp, construction engineer of the le-- I partinent, und F. C. I.ung, engineer or tests, one piece of pavement was found on which 528 points were re-corded. This, however, bad been built before the state trunk highway system was established and has car-ried several thousand vehicles per day for several years. The minimum on pavement was Ml points In n mile, and most of the pavements built by the state showed from 80 to lfil) points per mile. Some of this wnij on new oonstructlon, where the expulsion Joints hud not, yet been ...n)oot lied down. The minimum on gravel was HK" points and the maximum recorded was 415, hut the latter was on a road so rough thnt It wus necessary to slow down and dodge around holes. A much higher record would have been made If the average speed of 35 miles per hour had been maintained as was done on the pavement and the better gruvel roads. On and recent ly leveled gravel road, the "points per mile" usually ran from l.ru to 'JOU. Smooth Gravel Roads. ' "The record confirms the popular Impression that some of our gravel roads are 'smooth as pavement," Commissioner C M. Uabeock snld "The only trouble Is thut It Is Impos slhle to maintain that surface In all kinds of weather or under heavy truffle. We have some gravel road that cost us more than W.PUO per mile per year for maintenance, and still . their condition Is far from good. "The abundance of gravel In Minne-sota, however, bus made It possible to get the state out of the mud yeurs ahead of some of our neighbor states. There ure some states whlcch have much more pavement than we have, but their smondnry roads are still mud roads. In Minnesota these sec-ondary roads, and the trunk highways with lighter trafllc, which we cannot afford to pave for many years, If ever, can nevertheless be kept In good con-dition In any ordinary weather, and passable In almost hn.v weather." Say Mass in Honor of Spirits of Elephants A Buddhist mass was recently held In Tokyo for the spirits of all ele-phants that have supplied Ivory for Ivory carving In Japan. Members of the Toklo Art Objects Dealers' associ-ation nnd Ivory carvers assembled nt Kokoku temple for the ceremony. Fif-teen prizes opened the service with the reading of Ruddhlst prayers. A large monument was nlso unveiled In honor of the spirits of the departed elephants. The president of the as-sociation said: "We who obtnln our living from this Ivory cannot help feeling grateful to the elephants which have been furnishing materlnls for us to work with. It Is for this reason that we comfort their spirits by hold-ing a mass for them. We think we also do honor and comfort to the spir-its of our nncestors, who were like-wise In the Ivory trade. We wish all artists and dealers In Ivory objects to visit the monument as a shrine when they .come to Tokyo." Pathfinder Magazine. Air Drill Very Useful , to Start Auto Engine In the motor-repai- r shop, where nn air drill or motor Is used, It can be applied to starting motors that have had their bearings readjusted, nnd are consequently stiff and hard to tart by ordlnnry methods.

If the engine refuses to turn over, leave the air turned on nnd push down on the electric starter button. The combined efforts of the two will usual-ly start the engine, and the air mo-tor alone will be able to keep the engine turning until the Ignition Is switched on. Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Good Ideas Sometimes May Become Quite Silly Frequently It Is necessary to put un end to good Ideas that gain so much headway they become foolish. (! ner-ou- s tappet clearance Is n udvuntiigi' in hill climbing and does give a snap-py motor, but there Is great (lunger In carrying the Idea toe far. If there Is too much noise, It tuny mean there Is a great sacrllice In power. Also much depends upon the make or type of eng'ne. Where valves Hre of cheap metals with a tendency to excessive expansion, loose tappets will intike for power, but only when the engine Is warmed up Since most en-gines are hot when they reach the real struggle on hills, excess tappet clear-ance Is proper for engines of such con-struction. Where valves are designed to coinpensnte for their own expan-sion, however, noise may be a real loss of power. The danger lies In applying the noise-pow-theory to the wrong engine, to the wrong conditions or by overdoing the Idea. If valves do not lift fully. they will not let In enouch gas nor ex- - ' baust burned gases quickly enough, This means power loss. Some drivers do most of their hill climbing when their engines are cold. The less tappet clearance the better under such clr-- cumstanees. War Is Being Waged on Many Kinds of Covers There Is a determined effort on the part of experienced mechanics to dis-courage the use of covers of all kinds. Most owners have come to appreciate that It Is not good to cover a new tire unless such covering Is taken olT after ruin storms to allow the rubber to dry thoroughly. Many, others are discov-ering that while spring covers keep dirt out they also keep rust and dirt In. and are less than ." per cent effi-cient ns luhrlcators of spring leaves. Now the repairers are condemning the boots thnt are Intended to protect oth-erwise exposed universal Joints The Argument Is thnt since unlversals must throw gases through centrifugal action such grease accumulates inside the cover and causes It to "belly." Soon the cover Is fl rotation weight thnt tends to unbalance the propeller shaft. ' NFW v?
