Co. The big national highways of
which we have been reading so much

ners of network Of good roads that
will have tremendous effect on in.
creased motor and tire sales
Tire owners. will realize a tremen-

While this big saving viii come to the
tire owners individually, tire sales
will increase materially, nevertheless,
on account of the news fields opened
up and the increased sale of automo-
biles."
