f 71 /TY use of Goodyear Cord Pneumatic Truck Tires shows me 
x that pneumatics not only travel better on our clay roads but 
also are better for the roads . Solids have a hard time in the soft ruts 
and they are hard on the roads . I have observed that others here are 
taking note of this — A . J. Emmerton, Farmer, Bloomer, Wisconsin 
T HERE is scarcely any work 
done on the Emmerton 
Farm,near Bloomer,Wisconsin, 
that is not aided directly or 
indirectly by a motor truck on 
Goodyear Cord Pneumatic 
Truck Tires. 
Their traction enables this 
truck to haul fertilizer over 
plowed ground, to carry feed 
to livestock wherever located, 
to deliver oil to tractors and to 
distribute fencing. 
For the same reason the truck 
easily transfers corn from binder 
to silo filler and grain from 
separator to bins—all off-the- 
road work. 
Mr. Emmerton’s experience, 
however, equally emphasizes 
the advantage of the Goodyear 
Cords over solid tires on the 
local clay roads, noting that the 
pneumatic-shod truck over¬ 
comes conditions impassable to 
solid-tired trucks. 
Still another important signifi¬ 
cance attaches to his statement 
that the pneumatics are 
regarded with growing favor in 
the surrounding community 
because their cushioning action 
saves roads. 
It prompts the observation that 
this particular virtue of the 
pioneer Goodyear Cord Pneu¬ 
matic Truck Tires also is a fac¬ 
tor in their rapid and broadcast 
rural adoption.
