Motor Truck Tires Are Being Shown in Special Designs Special design of truck tire for each and every type of car, site of lead and condition of service. Such has been tha cireani of tlie truck industry that hat sud denly became a reality. When you add to this the fact that each of the big dls Unct types is backed by a definite and specific guarantee, you can realize- what a stir has been created in the truck in dustry Xot an inkling of the carefully guarded secret has leak. J cut until the announce ment was ready. It has been common knowledge for mo'iulu liit the truck tire industry wa In aa lu.scttied state, but no one e&pccled uc'.i a radical step on the part of its ptoac.T.. The impuit;tnce of this move can be Judged dura the lait tiiat tha Firestone company has ir.ide a laige percentage of truck tires for the last ten years. There new factory building Is now in operation, giving them the largest building ef Its kind In the world. They have a sales and service organization of more than 109 service stations on motor truck tires, giv.ng .tiiem unequaled facilities. In tires on electric trucks and pleaaura velubles there Is a choice between a special electric tire of standard design and the new cushion tire. Tha latter has a double tread and Internal cavities to make easier rid.ng. It Is made In tha regular side wire type and its rims are interchangeable wi;h pneumatie rims without altering the felloe. Both tires are made of rubber that has long been known for its eay riding and economy of current consumption. For heavy, trucks there Is, In addition to the regulsr line, a new line with a hard rubber base. It Is vulcanised In the standsrd endless rims, but has no 1 cross bars or side wires. ' 1 JOHN LIONBERGERl r ' pmaha has become the big center In the ' vnsstern territory for tha automobile ao ', cesaary Industry. Nearly every tire com fitny has branch houses In the c'ty be dsides the numerous other houses. Automobile dealers In the western sec tion of the country formerly sent to Chi cago and other eastern cities for all their supplies, entailing a large expense for ex press, besides a long wait before' the shipments were received. " , Vol the last few years Omaha has bee steadily advancing along this Una until today It la tbe greatest accessory center 1r this section of the country. Dealers are saved great expense and waste at time by buying from Omaha supply "'houses. The express expenee la far less than It is from Chicago and the teagth ef time It takes to receive the shipment after the order baa been sent le net nearly so Ions, Another greet advantage ta the deilere by O'dertnf f'tii Urns ha hove Is found In tha rcsnntr which their o-ors are herdltt As seen at a supply house receives aa order It la proT.pt'y filled and stilinwd, and l Omaha housei have tbe risht line ot peed to please the dt:tr Tha Omaha supply houses are Daunt Iroa works, Omaha ltubber company, Powell Supply company, tHori Aute Bun ply company and tha Western Automobile Supply oempany.

A new oar now oomea thoroughly fitted out with all manner of accessories and once they art Installed the owner wants to keep them In the best posilble condition. Tha saving ot time to owners by buying their rupplle in Omahs. Is one of the mo'i Important features, for When a man Is used u having his car for dally use he objects most strenuously to .having It tied up for a longer period than possible. The Omaha market does away with this delay, as three or four days Is saved In buying hers In preference to sending to Chicago or New York for the parts needed. The key in success In buslneea Is the Judicious and persistent use of aewspepet advertising. - w fr n rz The Delivery Car Now Used by 50 Omaha Firms A When purchasing a commercial car it is well to consider the standing of th firm be hind the car, and tho service given car owners.
