The RURAL NEW-YORKER

AFTER doing much of the market hauling of thirty-two farmers around Eden 
yl Prairie, Minnesota, with a motor truck on Goodyear Cord Pneumatic Truck 
Tires, Mr. C. P. Page states: “I would not use solid tires again under any considera¬ 
tion. Hills, mud and storms don f t stop the big, tractive Goodyear Cords. Their 
cushioning is saving truck repairs and depreciation. They also are saving gasoline 
and oil. I now haul more milk and other loads in less time, find the work 
far easier , and note that the pneumatics save our roads. Several people 
have adopted them as a result of my experience with Goodyear Cords." 
MOTORIZE THE FARM 
T HE experience described above affords an 
excellent example of what pneumatic 
truck tires are accomplishing for farmers. 
Every limitation hitherto placed on the farm 
use of motor trucks by solid tires has been 
removed with the perfected pneumatic tire. 
For this reason, Goodyear’s pioneer work in 
developing cord pneumatic truck tires has been 
extremely opportune; it has led to the more 
extensive use of farm trucks during a serious 
scarcity of farm labor. Now, farmers are finding 
it extremely advantageous to employ Goodyear- 
Cord-equipped trucks with other time-saving 
motor units and, thus, to motorize their work 
quite completely. Special information con¬ 
cerning the use of pneumatic-tired trucks on 
farms may be obtained from The Goodyear 
Tire 6c Rubber Company, at Akron, Ohio.
