ROBERTSON. UTOMOBILE owners, as a rule, in discussing their costs generally A name the great item of expense as being tires, and in that connection they are quite inclined to arraign the makers of pneumatic tires as being responsible for this condition. These statements are an individual | expression of opinion based on more or! less experience, and doubtless justified | in part by the records of bills paid by those who buy tires. There are three prime factors respon- | sible for short tire life. First, exces-| sive speed, especially during the warm | months; second, changes of direction at | a high rate of speed; and third, exces- | sive and unnecessary use of mechanical | brakes. My experience has gone to} prove that, punctures excepted, the life! of tires is enormously prolonged by | avoiding the above three chief enemies of the pneumatic tire’s longevity. So! much for the direct money cost, but if these three cardinal principles are insisted upon by owners the liability of accident will be reduced to a minimum, and all the high costs incident to property and personal damage.
