Rubber Compound

Rubber compound is an automo-
bile tire protector. If used as di-
rected. having been tested by wide
use, more or less upon the road. the
manufacturer feels confident that a
wide knowledge of it's merits will
largely increase it's demands. The
facts of good results, in prolonging
the life OF the tire by increased
toughness of the fiber of the rubber,
adds many miles of life to the tire,
which materially reduces the cost of
the improved rubber tire. It is
valuable consideration to the owner
of the automobile. 1t applies to the
solid truck tires also with the same
good results. 1t will preserve and
keep leather. curtains and top of the
automobile and can be used with
good results on the body and wheels
of the same. Adam Orris, Manufac-
