PAGE SIX | - TSPARE TIRE IS ___ BiG NECESSITY Years Ago It Was Four but To- \f day an Extra One Is of Much Importance. SLIPPED ON WITHOUT DELAY Investment Is Due to the Growing Observance of Old Adage That an Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure. How many tires are required on an automobile? A few years ago this question would have invoked the sarcastic _ retort: “Four, of course, ‘you boob,” but not so nowada, Today motorists are thinking In terms of five tires as complete equip- ment for a car. The day of “four-tire” equipment has passed for good. Mo- torists have learned that the purchase of es” is a sound investment which is sure to pay big dividends, Spare Tire Necessary, Notice the ears that pass on the roads these gays, ' Virtually every one hag at least one spare strapped in the holder at the rear, ready to be slipped on a wheel without a moment's delay in case one of the “working” tires col- lapses. most universal acceptance of tire asa part of a car's nec- ary equipment is not due to belief that tires are not as good as they used to be. Motorists know that the tires they buy at pr nt are superior in every way to the tires they used to buy. They are built from more e- fully selected material by improved methods-which give them many extra miles of life, ? Purchase of spares is due to the growing observance of the old adage that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, Motorists have learn- ed that aceidents may happen to the best of tire: the safe s If they have.a spare tire handy they are spared lots of tiring work in re- pairing the old | lots of cause for cussing, and spar lots of annoying delays. The old tire | can be taken off and the spare put on | In half the time it used to take to | begin the repairing process. Save Motorists Money. In the Idng run the motorist is saved money by buying spares, even id the original investment is considerable. With a good spare handy which: he ean put on without much trouble, the car owner is»not likely to delay havin tire injuries repatred, or to ruin a tire by running it back’to town “flat.” He puts-on the spare; ‘has the old: tire-re- paired, and no serious damage ts done. and they want to be on Provision for carrying spare tires ‘ig |. now being made by the designers: of practically all cars. The spare tire- (| holder is being considgred as necessary a part of the car as the headlights, fenders, upholstered seats or top. The spare, tires are being recognized as an, Anetieatpe which cannot be dispensed with, OIL GAUGE VERY IMPORTANT Guardian of Lubrication System Kéeps Tab on Proper Functioning of That Feature. There are quite a number of motor- ists who would refuse to buy a car that did not have all the fixings on the dash, including an oil. gauge of some sort. Once they are sure that the thing is\on the instrument board, how- ever, they forget all about it and never pay any attention tocit.¢°Watch the little gauge just as-carefully as you Jo any of the Instruments, for it is guar- dian of the lubrication system to in- form you of any improper functioning of that very important feature of the engine. 7 REMEMBER THESE POINTS Cut this out and save it as a reminder of how to keep your automobile in“ the best possible condition : 1.

In 1920, about $1,000,000. In 1921, about $2,009,000 of ‘work should be done and In 1922, ‘about $4,000,000 of work should be done to take up all the fed- eral aid allotted to the state, to catch up with the federal aid program and to be ready for further federal aid for 1921, 1922, 1923, ate. The allotments of ‘federal aid to|~ date to North Dakota under the ex- isting, federal laws. amount to about $4,222,000 for the 5-year period ending Sine 30, 1921. The’ counties of the state (43 in number), have made spe- cial ‘levies or set aside county funds to more than equal this amount—or about $100,000’ per county to meet fed- eral aid. Applications for which no federal aid is now available have had to be filed untik Congress provides further federal aid ‘appropriations. The Federal Aid Road Act requires the assent of the state) to the prcvi- sions of said act. That assent has been given twice for; North Dakcta. once in’ 1917 by the 15th session and again:in 1919 by. the 16th session. Hénce it appears that the word of the state has been given. to the federal government to go ahead with federal aid. 6 The federal government requires adequate supervision (by the state), of work under construction. It also requires adequate maintenance for all time of completed projects. The pen- alty in failing in either case is that all payments of federal aid to the state will be stopped.
