tfOns on Many Different Sizes

Reduced tire prices have been an
nounced by the Michelin Company.
The new prices went into effect on
Monday. February 18th. This an
nouncement sets at rest the many ru-
mors regarding price revision that

time. On inquiry among dealers ii was
learned that while several tire makers
have recently offered special induce
ments to the trade. Michelin is the first
to give tire users the benefit of a re-
duction. Michelin's new prices show
marked saving over previous quota
tions, the reduction on several of the
larger sizes being as much as seven
dollars per casing. On the smaller
sizes the saving averages from seven
to ten per cent.
