HORSfhAN finds AUTO
TIRES TOO SPIRITED

An old horseman at Detroit, who had
taken up automobiling, bought a set
of Goodrich Silvertown Cord tires, re-
Gently, says w. S. Bloomer, local agent
for the B. f. Goodrich company, Ak
ron. o.
This old fellow" says Mr.. Bloomer,
went into the Detroit store and said
that he had heard that Silvertowns
were the best tires made; that they
added engine power at the wheel and
rode easier, lighter and farther.
He took a set, but inside of week
or two he was back-said he didn't
want 'em-couldn't use 'em.
He made the salesman proposition
of exchange, offering to turn in the
Silvertown Cord tires for a set of
Goodyear Safety Treads. The sales
man showed him that he'd be losing
money because the Silvertowns cost
more than Safety Treads. but he said
/ e didn't care, he wanted to make the
change anyway.
so they asked him what he object
ed to in the Silvertowns-they had
been driven only couple of hundred
miles and were as good as new, OF
course. This was the old horseman's
reason:
When I was a young fellow he
said, I wanted a horse that had to be
held In. liked 1t when I Just had to
lean back on the reins to keep the cuss
from climbing the telegraph poles.
Spirit-that was what l wanted in
boss.
Z" AS time went on. however, got so
wanted boss that didn't have so
much git-up and git in him. l liked
to wind the reins around the whipstocl1
and let the critter pick his own road.
Tires such as had on my car be-
fore / got the Silvertowns are like the
old horse-they don't require much at
tention but jog along easy. and IL you
want to turn you have to yank your
steering wheel to get action But with
Silvertowns on, my car gets so much
spirit and the tires have so much life
and go In 'em that darned If I'm not
afraid they'll pull the car right out
from under me-"

Alfalfa Seed.

Orders for northern-grown alfalfa seed
will be placed by the Jefferson County
Farm Bureau Saturday of this week. All
farmers intending TO sow alfalfa this year
will do well TO read why it is advisable
TO buy northern-grown seed. In support
Of the contention that this seed will do
better in the north than southwestern
GROWN seed, we quote the following para
oraph from a recent letter from w. A.
Floud OF the office OF Farm Management,
Washington:
"There seems to be considerable evil
dence warrantiug the belief that northern
grown alfalfa seed will produce plants
that will stand the winter better than seed
from more southern ATTITUDES. During
recent trip to the central west, had this
matter very forcibly brought TO my aiten-
tiou. In a 6O-acre alfalfa field, just
across the river from Davenport, Iowa,
about three quarters Of the field had been
seeded with southern grown seed, while
the remainder had been seeded with
northwestern seed. The farmer told me
that last autumn the part of the held with
the southern-growu seed looked much
the better, so much so in fact that ne was
rather discouraged with the remainder OF
the field. This spring, however, practi-
cally every plant in the part seeded WIN
southern seed had tailed TO stand the
winter, while the part seeded with north
ern- grown seed had come through in
good shape, and at the time OF my visit
presented a very beautiful appearance
indeed. The remaining portion OF the
field he had e-seeded TO alfalfa this spring
with oats. | merely offer this as a re-
cent illustration of the matter you have
in mind"

Town, know your wants.
