ration For Such Purpose
Begins Saturday.
From next Saturday, August l,
the Twentieth Century Wheel and
Tire Company will be ready to do
business, as on that date the work
of Incorporating will be completed.
The company is organized with a
capital stock Of 100000. Shares
are one dollar par value, fully paid
and non -assessable.
The new concern proposes to de-
velop certain inventions of jarless
auto wheels which promise to en-
tirely revolutionize the rubber tire
industry and enable the automobile
manufacturers to greatly increase
the demand for autos and auto
trucks. 1t proposes also to man.
utacture and market a non-break-
able carriage spring to be used on
any kind Of vehicles, such as bug
gies, thus filling long felt want
in that regard. The company will
develop and market new clothes
hanger which will enable the house
wife or maid to hang out her wash
ing, no matter how many articles it
may contain, while standing on the
porch, and, when they are dry, take
them in from the same position.
1t can be stretched just as tight
as the line will hold from the same
place or loosened in second's S
time. 1t will be cheap enough to
enable anyone to buy it.
! The company feels that it has
some excellent inventions to place
on the market. 1t is we'll known
fact that good inventions have
proven immensely valuable and in
many instances have brought the in
ventor fabulous returns, as for in
stance, the man who invented the
machine for making horseshoe
nails got 5000, 900 for his invention,
and the inventor of the pneumatic
tire, unsatisfactory as it is in many
respects, is today worth S63, ,0OO,-
600. There are more than 100, 600
automobiles manufactured every
year, which means that, were it not
tor the fact that few are able to
stand the expenses of tires, the out
put could be doubled if a satisfac-
tory tire is put on the market at a
reasonable price.
The new venture has behind it
some OF the most enterprising of
our citizens, and the company will
no doubt be successful in accom-
plishing what it set out to do. It
invites the purchase of stock and
is ready to furnish any information
in regard to it's plans or patents at
its office over the post office. The
names of those forming the corpor-
alton and constituting the first
board of directors are as follows:
Andrew Nordloef, president;
Waiter DeLaHunt, secretary-treas-
urer: Julius Julson, vice president
Nels H. Nelson and Sam A. Ras.
