A chain is no more at the mercy of its weakest link than a tire is at the mercy of the tube in it. The best beginning is to start with Good rich casings. For Goodrich gives you the standard by which you can gauge the true value of any tire. Square its price and adjust ment mileage up with Goodrich List Prices, and the Goodrich More-Mile age Adjustment—6,000 miles for Fabrics; 8,000 for Silvertown Cords— and you see why the wise tire user buys Good rich casinrs for the great est outer strength.

An earnest plea for more beauty In building is submitted by a writer In the magazine' Touchstone, who says In part: ; "Building a home should be ap proached with reverence as well as joyous enthusiasm. Ther^ Is no ad venture in life more fraught veith ro mance than the creating of a home. We are apt to turn to the past for precedent 1^ architectural styles, whereas we should concern ourselves chiefly with the honest expression of our needs and surroundings. “Love of beauty was almost a re ligion with the Greeks. To build an ugly thing was a misdemeanor punish- would be a much more delightful gnd much more agreeable place to live in if our home builders were guided by wise architects who took as mucli thought for beauty as they do for economy and profit. Every home is an investment, and a beautiful home returns far more Interest on the money expended than does an ugly one. “Would It not be well for us, now that we are facing an era of home building such as the world has seldom known, to pause a little and approach our task with greater carefulness! We should remember that we art- building for the future as well as for present delight and that our descend ants may turn to our work with re spect, as we look into the past and bow before the genius of the ancient master builders.” TRELUS EASY TO CONSTRUCT Twisted Wires Support Sweet-Pea Plants In ji Moat Satisfac tory Manner. s. A very satisfactory sweet-pea trel lis can be made by stretching wires on a frame of two-inch hard wood or one-inch pipe, the length of the frame being the same as the length of the rows. The wires should be placed loosely about the frame, as shown, then tightened by twisting them with a spike. A trellis of this kind can be used for several years, and If desired can be removed at the end of each season.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. Red Raspberries on Town Lot last a small patch of a good variety of red raspberry will afford fresh fruit for the table for many weeSlT Some of the new varieties are ever-bearing. Perhaps one of the best is the Erskine Park. In setting out the plants first manure and spade the bed as for a garden. If the plants are trained to a wire trellis they can be set two feet apart. Six or eight plants will be sufficient average family and ought to produce at least a pint a day from ea<ft plunt. By having so few plants, tney can be watered and well cared for. Hand weeding about the plant is always the best way to cultivate raspberries.— Thrift Maglzlne. Do You Think It Paid? St Joseph, Mo., employed a full time expert garden instructor last year who organized the pupils of the elementary school Into garden clubs. About 3,000 pupils reported that they were doing garden work before the schools closed iff June, says their su perintendent. Of this number 2394 entered their names for membership in the United States school garden army. The school children gardened 32 acres without help and helped their parents work an area of 394 acres. Although the season was very unfa vorable, a conservative estimate of the food produced by the pupils would be 315,000 at market prices. j-" Keep the City Clean. With springtime usually comes a “clean up” campaign, and a movement in that direction is general in ciyes and towns throughout the United States. Appeal is made to civic pride, and people are urged to make their Idealities better places In which to live. This Is good and desirable. But why not keep cleaning up all the year round? If things are not thrown into the streets, particularly bits of waste paper, they will not have to be picked ■ up. Receptacles for refuse, If placed In back yards, and used, will help much in maintaining a condition of nuatnesa.

Those who can afford to spend the time tkiid money need experience no difficulty in having window boxes well furnished s with handsome plants throughout the entire year. In win ter hardy dwarf evergreens, such as boxwood, young pines, spruce, arbor- vitae and junipers may be used in the body of the box with English ivy to trail over the edge. In early spring various bulbous plants—tulips, crocus and daffodils—are available. Double English daisies or pansies may also be used. There is, of course, no difficul ty whatever in obtaining plants to oc cupy the boxes during the summer. There Is a large number of plants that are suitable for window and porch box gardening. Among them may be found those that will thrive In sunny, shaded or partly shaded places. Plants for window boxes can be^ roughly grouped In three divisions— trailers, plants' of medium size for the second row and taller ones for the back row. There Is nothing hard and fast about these divisions. In small boxes !t is advisable to dispense with the taller kinds, and sometimes an ex cellent effect can be obtained by us ing one variety alone. Some of the petunias by themselves, because of their strong growth and sprawly hahr it, furnish adequate height and at the same time trail sufficiently to hide the front orLhe box. FRUIT TREES IN THE CITY KKtjjjn;: iliiililHill!!: Suggestion That Would Seem to Be Worthy of Serious Conslderatibn by Authoritiee. I have often asked why we could not have In parks, along our boule vards and along our streets apple? peach and cherry trees. The answer given was that hoys would climb the trees and eat the fruit. The robins, too, would eat the cherries. « When a hoy I gathered hazelnuts on land now included Id Lincoln park and they tasted fine to a boy with a torn straw hat, one 'suspender and not much else for clothing, writes a corre spondent of the Chicago Daily News. But park commissioners rarely give that kind of boy a thought nor the*nee that could he made of the space now used for ilms and sickly shrubbery. What tree more beautiful than an apple, peach or cherry abloom? Wal nuts, hlclory nuts snd others are 100 per cent American and would tend to make 100 per cent Americans of egery boy and girl who eat of their fruit or enjoy their shade.

The first essential In advancing city planning everywhere Is to get a defi nite plan, then make It known fp order to get the necessary legislation and financial support to put It through. Cities should make a plap and de velop It piecemeal. That is. It should be like a building with a solid founds- tion with five or six stories on It, but solid enough to carry 20 stories. The plan should be complete, hut need not all be presented at once, nor should the efforts In carrying it out he sporadic or haphazard. An author ity recently urged the securing of ex pert talent to direct city planning for the interest of all, and not for a class of citizens. Describing Him.. “Public-spirited, is he not?” “Very! Why, he keeps so continu ally busy telling the rest of us what ought to be done for the advancement of ths town that he never has time to do anything himself toward that snd.’*—Kansas City Star. ill se! m Smokers realism that the value is in the cigarettes and d* not expect premiums or coupons !

You’ll have to make a decision— perhaps right now; perhaps later; but, in any event, in tho near future. We want to help you all we can in making your decision. The best way we know of is to remind you of ^hat is happening to tho roads. On 90% of the country roads of today the automobile makes the track. In a short time this will increase j to more nearly 100%. Tho automobile with its / standardized 55 inch width has come to stay. Con sequently the “auto” track farm wagon has also come to stay. Maybe your own automobile is help ing to make this standardization permanent, on the roads. Isn’t it, then, the logical thing for you to buy wagons* that will tracITperfectly and smoothly in the path or ruts made by the automobile? - Do you want the wheels on one side of your wagon to follow the rut while those on the other side ride on rough ground, jolting and wracking your wagon, putting an extra strain on your horses and spoiling the road far your own or other autos? * \ - * * When everybody uses “auto” track wagons—as we believe everybody will in the near future—all this road trouble will be ovenjema. Wagons and automobiles will run smoothly in tho same tracks, saving wear and tear on wagons, horses, autos and tires, and making better roads. Come , in and talk it. over with us.
