TO BUELD THE TIRE SEHSATIOFi of '34!
Beyond Comparison In Qualify,
Construction, Appearance and Pric
With Any First Quality Tire Made
Tie vay to create a
TIKE SENSATION is to
give the people what they
want, and Firestone has
dene this with the new
Firestone Century Progress
Tire.
As millions of people
visited the Firestone Factory
at the World's Fair last year,
we asked this question
"What do you value most in
a tire?" They answered
"Give us Slow out Protection,
Non-Skid Safety, and Long
Wear at a moderate price."
This Yas a lug order, hut
Firestone has a habit of
giving car owners what they
want when they want it.
We knew there was only
one way to build Quality
and Value into a tire at a
r.iodcrcte price, and that
was by volume production.
We built the greatest tire
ever made to sell at these
low prices. Car owners are
profiting because we found
out what they wanted and
found the way to give it to
them.
TL e ne w Firest one Century
Pro?rrc3 Tire IS EQUAL
OR SUPERIOR to any first
quality tire built, regardless
of name, brand, by whom
manufactured, or at what
price offered for sale.
CHECK THESE AMAZING VALUES
Come in and equip your
car with this marvel of tire
construction, at the lowest
price we have ever been
able to make on a tire

construction, carrying a

to show better title to livestock in

An amendment 0f the brand law to

Secretary Broome said the live
stock industry may be said to be
prosperous in spite cf drouth and de
pression. "Prices are satisfactory,
considering everything, and feeders
expect them to be much higher in
the spring. Most of the cattlemen
have teed and are not complaining.
r.Icst of the complaint comes from
those who lea:: too heavily on the
government. About eight million
head cf inferior cattle have been
bought by the government and this
is bound to be better for those who
can keep the better conditioned ani
mals." ilr. Modiselt of Rushville, one ot
the oldest ranchers, said he has the
advantage of both a winter and sum

have a day of grace until next De

usually severe there.
The snow fences have been hurried

crew of men out on this work. The

interfering with traffic on the high
ways.
