International Rubber Half Sole Tires
have been on the market for over a
year and have found instantaneous favor
with motorists. Our dealers in Louis
vile, KY, started only 60 days ago and
have already shown a gross profit in
excess of 81 10000 on less than $500. 90
capital. Our numerous other dealers in
Middle Western territory are doing
equally as well and are making big
proiits on a comparatively small amount
of capital.
At this time of year Internationals
offer an unusual chance to get a lucra-
tive business started quickly. If you
will notice the tires on the cars that
pass you, you'll see that more than two
thirds of them are badly worn-the
motorist dislikes to buy new tires in the
fall-and Internationals will enable him
to get 5000 to 10000 more miles out of
his old tires at big saving in cost
besides being absolutely GUARANTEED
against punctures.
Write us today telling us complete de-
tails about yourself, your business ref
erences, and why you think you are
qualified to handle an exclusive Interna-
tional Distributorship.

.NEWTOWN PUZZLED AT SPORADIC CASE
 OF POL|OMYEL
(Special to Farmer.l

Newtown, Aug. 17-Amelia Preron, the 15-years-old daughter of Lucian Preron, a farmer residing about a mile below Sandy Hook district, has been stricken with infantile Paralysis. Drs. w. H. Kiernan of Newtown, in charge of the case, and D. E. Brown, called from Danbury have both diag- nosed the case as clearly one of poliomyelitis. The child will be re- moved to the Bridgeport isolation hos pital tonight if negotiations now pending are completed. The home has been quarantined.
 This case is the first strictly local one in Newtown, though the Fitz- gerald boy, who previous came from New York. died here. It is most per- picking to physicians and the family.
 It is declared by the parents that the child has not been allowed away from its home in a months time, neither have any children or persons visited the house which is quarter of mile removed from the nearest residence.
 For this reason it is asserted by those investigating the case that poliomyelitis germs or bacteria must be contagious as well as infectious as is now commonly supposed to be the case.
