Instead of listing it at a high price, to enable the dealer to attract you with a so-called long discount," we list it as low as we profitably can. You can see from the figures below that its advertised price is lower than the net price you are asked to pay for many "long discount" tires of unknown value. We believe the average man would rather buy tires on this frank and open basis, and assure himself a product of recognized worth. The new Goodyear Cross-Rib Tread Cord is made of high-grade long-staple cotton, and it embodies the patented Goodyear method of group-ply construction. In design, materials and manufacture it is a representative Goodyear product, built to safeguard the world-wide Goodyear reputation. It has a different tread from the famous All-Weather Tread Cord a new tread with a deep, clean-cut, cog-like pattern and it sells for substantially less.

Neb. MURRAY GARAGE Murray UNION AUTO CO Union WEST NEBRASKA HAS BEST CORN IN MANY YEARS Secretary of Agriculture Stuhr Finds Potato Crop in Northwest 'Will Be a Eecord Breaker. Elank bocks at the Journal Office. Western and northwestern Ne hraska will have the best corn crop this season for thirty years, and the potato crop will also be a record breaker, Agriculture Secretary Leo B. Stuhr predicts after a week's tour thru twelve or fifteen counties in those sections of the state. Both the irrigated territory in the North Platte river valley and the dry farming districts of the west will harvest big crops of these com modities, says Mr. Stuhr. He found fields looking especially 1HRDL. FF fields looking exceptionally good in Dawes. Sioux. Sheridan and Cherry tounties, but the entire western half of the state promises a yield that will eclipse the production of any past season. Sugar beets and alfalfa are also doing well, Stuhr reports. Wheat in certain sections was a little light, due to the drouth in early June, but in general it has made a satisfactory crop. , Low Prices For Potatoes Because of the huge potato crop, Less Trains For Union Union and the Lincoln branch as well :is the main line wiil tret alrn:r with less trains tor the present as the ' two flyers have been taken off and 1 what is known or was known as j trains No. GIT and No. C4S. the day passengers running between Union and Lincoln, have been discontinued for the present.

Distributor of Goodyear Tires not only in Nebraska but over the country generally, prices have de clnied to very near pre-war levels. Farmers in the Kearney district, who sold their crop last year at from $1.50 to $2.25 per hundredweight, according to grade, are now offered only SO to 85 cents for No. 2 grade at their home stations. No. 1 potatoes would bring a little more, but the demand is not strong enough to fur nish much of a' market for them. At this date last year, the bulk of the potato crop In the Kearnej re gion had been shipp'd: but ;:!- a small part of it has be n nmv d tl.i season. For the most part, lari-e'''-are holding back and !! t i ntj their potatoes stay in the gruim I. hoping to see prices go hichtr before coll weather conies.
