A LITTLE TALK ON
 TIRES

The tire upkeep is a prob lem which should be care fully looked into.
 What is a tire guarantee? How many times have you lu%gcd yow tire up to your dealer. expecting to get a replacement. and were told that 1t was not the tire s fault. and that you had no replacement coming, or to pacifv you he would agree to send the tire to the fac tory, provided you would pay transportation bot h ways. and see what he could do. It then becomes neces- Sarv for you to buy a new tire, and you have about one chance out of ten of eyer getting anything on the casing sent i'll.
 Our guarantee: We make all replacemcnts right here, right now: no waiting to see what the factory does about your tire.
 Mileage: Do you know that you can buy our tires for 1o per cent less money. and a tire that you absolutely know that you are going to get a liberal replacement should it fail to give you the service guaranteed? This should interest every tire user: OF for the same price that iS charged for the other standard 3jOO mile guaran- teed tires we will guaran- tee Congress tires for 4000 miles.
 Red Tubes guaranteed for one year. We handle only the best grade of red tubes, and so sure are we that they are the best .that we are guaranteeing these tubes for one year. Yet, note our nrlreS:

BUREAU or CORPORATIONS
REPORT ON OPERATIONS
IN HEALDTON FIELD
(By Associated Press.)

Washington. May d.--m respon Sc
to a senate resolution directing an
investigation into the cause of a re-
duction in prices Of crude oil in 1914
in the Healdton, Oklahoma, oil field,
sometimes called the Ardmore field,
report by the old bureau of cor
porations was laid today before Pres
isedtn Wilson. The report was COM
pleted before the bureau was merged
with the new federal trade commits
sion.
The investigation revolved around
the charge that the Magnolia Pipe
Line Company having a monopoly
in transportation of oil in the Ard
more field had arbitrarily reduced
the price of crude oil and had practic-
ed discriminations.
'Hn brief" says the report, "the
conclusion of the Bureau is that re-
ductions in the price Of Healdton
crude oil were made because OF tae
discovery by the Magnolia Pipe Line
Company of its small gasoline and
kerosene content and because the
lubrieating values of this crude were
not enough to warrant, under existing
conditions, its use for the manufac
ture of lubricants.
The pipe line company however,
does not appear to be without blame
for its failure to determine the true
character of the oil at an early date
This would have saved much disap-
pointment to producers.
"The bureau found no evidence OF
any intent on the part of the pipe
line company to discriminate be-
tween the different producers or
against oil produced on Indian allot-
ments The bureau did find howev-
er, that at various periods some pro-
ducers may have been favored at the

proved of great interest to officials
here.
According to a statement issued by
the Villa agency, based on advices
from headquarters at Chihuahua, the
zapata force which has been active
between Mexico City and the Car
rama army under General Obregon
entered Queretaro Sunday. cutting
Obregon off from his base at Vera
Cruz. Recent reports to the Carran2a
agency said the zapata troops had
been driven back to within twenty
miles of Mexico city.
Queretaro controls both railway
lines leading to Vera Cruz from the
region about Irapuato where the villa
and Obregon forces have been facing
each other for the last six weeks.
Obregon's offensive campaign was
launched at the point and reports from
Vera Cruz have insisted that he was
northward toward Aguas
Calientes, where villa reorganized his
army after an unsuccessful attempt to
capture Celaya.
All official messages have indicat-
ed that Villa was assembling every
