Civil war. The French cross may be

The first Victoria Cross granted for
bravery in the South African war was

federal land laws at that time at the
federal land offices in Durango and
Montrose. Squatters will have no

Leddy will be able, temporarily, to
frustrate the will OF the people in the
lending OF money Of the state on
farms and other realty by reason Of
the granting of the supersedeas asked

Leddy appealed from the decision OF
the District Court, in which the lat

portioned to the various counties for
the purpose Of lending money to the
farmers, he asked for a writ of super
sedeas restraining the enforcement OF
the order of the lower court. This
request was granted. The case will
come up this fall. perhaps, on its
merits. Leddy's term of office expires
in January. Last year Volney T. Hog

sought to have the funds, amounting

Goodyear Prices
1t is Folly Today to Pay More

There exists now a new, compelling
reason for buying Goodyear tires. 1t re-

selling today at June prices
You will find today very wide difference
between most tire prices and Goodyears
Due to Quick Action
Early in August-when war began-the
worlds rubber markets seemed closed to us.
Rubber prices doubled almost over night.
Men could see way to pay for rubber
abroad, and way to bring it in. We like
others-in that panic-were forced to higher
prices. But we have since gone back to prices
We charged before the war, and this is how
did it:
We had men in London and Singapore when
the war broke out The larger part of the
worlds rubber supply comes through there.
We cabed them to buy up the pick of the rub
Der. They bought-before the advance-1 ,500,-
600 pounds of the finest rubber there
Nearly all this is now on the way to us.
And it means practically all of the extra-grade
rubber obtainable abroad.
Today we have our own men in Colombo,
Singapore and Para. Those the worlds
chief sources of rubber. So We are pretty well
assured of constant supply, and our pick of

Now Inferior Grades Cost Double
About the only crude rubber available now
for many makers is inferior. In ordinary times,
the best tire makers refuse it. Much Of it had
been rejected. But that "off rubber" now sells
for much more than we paid for the best.
The results are these:

standing the financial crisis and
hard times caused by the war
raging in Europe.
The fact that melodious echoes

due to the diligent and constant
