WORLD’S LARGEST TIRE
SHOWN IN O’NEILL
The largest tire in the world arriv
ed in O’Neill last Friday morning
and was on exhibition at the Mellor
Motor Co. garage and on the streets
of the city until the following morn
ing when it continued on its way.
This tire, built by Goodyyear,
would carry a load of 25 tons when
inflated to six pounds pressure, but
carrying its light load, it is inflated
to but three pounds. However con
sidering the size of the tire, it would
be some job to pump up that much
pressure by hand. It takes 45 min
utes with an air hose to put in the
necessary three pounds.
The tire is 12 feet high and four
feet wide. The total weight of the |
casing is over a half ton and the tube
weighs 125 pounds. The tire is
mounted on a wheel weighing t’>00
pounds and the yoke with which it is
fastened to the special truck which
pulls it, weighs about a ton. The tire
is valued at $5,0000.
Three of these huge tires were
built, two of which are being hauled
over the country. It is expected that
it will run several hundred thousand
miles. Most of the wear noticeable
on the casing is due to spectators
who wanted a piece for a souvenir.
This tire was built as an experi
ment by the rubber company, and
some authorities believe that similar
tires will be used on huge airplanes
of the future. A larger size was or
iginally planned but too many bridg
es on the highways will not accom
modate a higher one. In one instance
a ditch six inches deep had to be dug
to let this monster of the road pass
under an obstruction.
TWENTY MILLIONTH FORD
WILL STOP IN O’NEILL
The Twenty Millionth Ford car, |
symbolic of one man’s contribution |
to world history and the develop
ment of American industry, will vis
it O’Neill, Wednesday, August 19th,1
emoute from Detroit on a transcon
tinental tour.
Expected to arrive about 4:45 in
the afternoon, the Twenty Millionth
Ford will be met at the city limits
and escorted to the Mellor Motor
Co. garage where it will be placed on
exhibition. During the evening there
will be free showings of a motion
picture of the Ford Motor Company.
Assembled in the presence of Hen
ry and Edsel Ford, the twenty mil
lionth Ford left the Ford Motor Co.’s
Rouge plant in Dearborn, Michigan,
on April 14th.
Following the brief ceremonies at
the linal assembly line, and with j
Henry Ford at the wheel, the car j
was driven to Mr. Ford’s home where |
its meeting with the first Ford, pro- j
duced in 1893, was recorded for fu
ture generations in motion pictures.
The twenty millionth Ford will be j
met at the edge of O’Neill and es-1
corted about the city; the parade will
be headed by the Mayor, C. E. Stout j
and representative citizens; the par
ade will stop at the Mellor Motor Co.
garage where motion pictures of the
parade and the signing of the log
book will take place. Pictures of the
crowd and the parade will be shown
at the Royal Theatre at some future
date.
A very interesting talk will be
given and a number of rolls of films
and pictures of the manufacturing
plant of the Ford Motor Company
will be shown at the Mellor Motor
Company garage. The different mod
els of the Ford cars will also be
shown.
Its tour of the country completed,
the twenty millionth Ford will be re
turned to Greenfield Village for pre
servation rear the first Ford—the
“gasoline buggy” in which Henry
Ford astounded his neighbors and
demoralized traffic when he chugged
noisily through Detroit’s cobbled
streets at the dizzy speed of nearly
20 miles an hour.
The first Ford—built in 1893 and
one of the first three automobiles the
world had ever seen—odd. indeed, by
comparison with its 1931 descend
ant, resembled a buggy mounted on
bicycle wheels and its little two-cyl
inder engine boasted four hor.-epow- j
er. its gasoline tang neid tnree gal-1
Ions and its uncomfortable seat held
two people. Mr. Ford was given a
verbal permit by the mayor, thus be
coming the world’s first licensed
chauffeur.
Such was the percursor of the long
line of Fords that have since revolu- j
tionized the automobile industry, ■
made the automobile a common-place;
within the reach of almost every
family and tremendously aided the
development of good roads systems i
everywhere.
In December, 1915, more than one
million Fords had been produced.1
Thereafter, as a result of the devel
opment of Ford manufacturing meth
ods and processes which have since
been adopted as standards of effi
ciency and economy for industry the
world over, the total production
reached two million in June, 1917:
five million in May, 1921; ten million
in June. 1924; nnd fifteen million in
May, 1927.

THE
GREATEST
VA L UE
EVER BUILT
INTO A
Ford Car
The Beautiful
Ford Tudor Sedan
(F. O. It. Detroit, plus freight and delivery.
Dumpers and spare tire extra at low cost.)
% Y 7"HEX you buy a Ford rar today, you buy what is
Vf unquestionably the greatest value in the history
of the Ford Motor Company. Never before has so
much beauty, comfort, safety and performance been
offered at such a low price.
The low price of the Ford is something to think
nbout because it means an immediate saving of many
dollars — always an important consideration. But far
more significant than price alone is what you get for
that price. When high quality is combined with low
price, you may justly take pride in having found a
most satisfactory purchase.
See the Ford — ride in it — learn something about
the value that i built into every part. The more you
know about it, the more certain you will be that it is
the car lor you. V1 i literally true that when you “get
the facts you will get a Ford,”
